Because of space limitations, this list cannot be exhaustive. Drugs designed exclusively for topical administration and not significantly absorbed into the bloodstream (e.g., ophthalmic and some dermal applications) are not included. A few other selection criteria have influenced the makeup of the list, but, in general, the authors have tried to include one or more representative drugs in each of the therapeutic areas in this text, based on distinct mechanism(s) of action. In some instances, drugs may be excluded because pharmacokinetics are not relevant to their therapeutic dosing regimen design. An obvious case is when drug efficacy is not apparently correlated with drug concentration in a reversible fashion (e.g., some cytotoxic anticancer drugs). In some instances, sufficient pharmacokinetic data are not available.
