Discussion: Impact of Pharmacokinetics on Medication Selection and Administration Discussion: Impact of Pharmacokinetics on Medication Selection and Administration Permalink: https://nursingpaperessays.com/ impact-of-pharma…d-administration / As an advanced practice nurse, you will likely be responsible for selecting and prescribing pharmaceuticals to address your patients’ health needs and concerns. To what extent is understanding the pharmacokinetics of a certain medication important in your decision-making process when prescribing a medication for your patient? Knowing the pharmacokinetic effects of medications—such as how long will the medication be absorbed and exert an effect on the body before it is eliminated—can have important implications for addressing your patient’s health needs.
