6. From literature, it is known that a drug compartmentalizes in the following way:
1) the drug enters the stomach via a tablet formulation
2) the drug is irreversibly absorbed from the stomach to the plasma
3) the drug is reversibly absorbed into the various tissue compartments,
4) the drug transport to/from the liver shows significantly different behavior than that of the
other tissues.
5) Drug elimination is from the kidneys only.
