    dissolve easily in water for quick absorption

    Hydrophilic drugs, also known as water-soluble drugs, are medications that dissolve easily in water. This property allows them to be readily absorbed into the bloodstream when taken orally or administered intravenously. Because they mix well with bodily fluids, hydrophilic drugs often have a quicker onset of action and are less likely to accumulate in fatty tissues, making them suitable for treating conditions that require rapid therapeutic effects.
