How is penicillin processed by the liver, distributed in the bloodstream and excreted through the kidneys and how do factors like renal impairment or age impact its metabolism and elimination in patients?
Penicillin is metabolized by the liver, circulated via the bloodstream, and excreted by the kidneys. Renal impairment or advanced age can slow its elimination, potentially increasing toxicity.
