Metabolism is the biotransformation that some drugs undergo when the body chemically alters them. Metabolism is an important process that produces the intended therapeutic effects of a certain drug and eliminates the drug from the body through urine or bile. Drug metabolism can be tricky to understand—here’s everything you need to know about how drugs are metabolized in the body. 

Good manufacturing practice or GMP is a system that ensures products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards.
