Drug Transporters

This new edition discusses drug transporters that influence absorption, distribution, and elimination of drugs in the body. Retaining its predecessor's basic structure, the 2nd edition presents up-to-date information on drug transport families, principles of drug transport, and associated techniques for studying drug transport. New chapters cover multidrug and toxin extrusion proteins, placental transport, in silico approaches in drug discovery, and regulatory guidance for drug development. As a result, this new edition combines the current state of the field with a perspective on future directions.
