The functional unit of the kidney is:
Nephron
Bow Man's Capsule
Descending Loop of Henle
Ascending Loop of Henle
Three basic processes involved in renal drug excretion include
Glomerular secretion
Tubular filtration
Glomerular reabsorption
Tubular secretion
The normal GFR in humans is
100–125 mL/min
50-125 mL/min
100–225 mL/min
90–105 mL/min
The gold standard for measuring GFR is by
Monitoring the renal clearance of insulin
Monitoring the renal clearance of iothalamate
Monitoring the renal clearance of phosphate
Monitoring the renal clearance of isohexate
A Physiologic factor that affects tubular secretion include
PKa
Intrinsic clearance
Molecular weight of drug
PH
Acidifying the urine will increase the excretion of aspirin
True
False
Non-renal excretory sites include
Saliva
Brain
Bones
The Esophagus
