Did you mean Systemic Absorption?

GlossarySystemic Absorption

substance enters bloodstream and spreads throughout the body

Systemic absorption refers to the process by which a substance, such as a medication or chemical, enters the bloodstream and is distributed throughout the body. This can occur through various routes, including oral ingestion, inhalation, or through the skin. Once in the bloodstream, the substance can exert its effects on different organs and tissues, which is crucial for treatments that need to reach systemic circulation to be effective.
