Answer – B. (The type of drug involved and medical condition of the person)

The rates at which drugs are excreted from the human body vary greatly depending upon the type of drug involved (hydrophilic or lipophilic) and medical condition of the person (e.g. Renal function). 

Correct answer choice is :


B)  The type of drug involved and medical condition of the person

Explanation:

Some drugs and their metabolites are widely eliminated in bile. Because they are conveyed across the biliary epithelium against an intensity grade, the active secretory carrier is needed. When plasma drug companies are high, the secretory carrier may introduce an upper limit. Substances with related physicochemical characteristics may struggle for excretion.
