B. PHYSIOCHEMICAL FACTORS
1. Lipid-water solubility
When drugs are highly soluble in the vehicle, release rate
into rectal fluid will be low
a hydrophobic drug in a fatty base has greater to be
released into the body fluid than a lipophilic drug that is
distributed in a fatty base (at low concentration)
2. Particle size
the smaller the particle size, the greater the surface area,
the more readily the dissolution of the particle, the greater
chance for rapid absorption
3. Nature of the base
if the base interacts with the drug to inhibit its release, drug
absorption will be impaired or prevented
If the base irritates the mucous membranes of the rectum,
it may prompt bowel movement.
