ABSTRACT
The pharmacokinetics of drugs can be altered by physical changes related to age. Food, diet or nutritional status may condition the response to therapeutic and toxic drug therapy. Also drugs can alter the process of nutrition. The nutrients are absorbed, metabolized and excreted by the body, drugs can affect nutrient utilization in any of these stages and in many ways. Gastrointestinal disturbances are the most commonly reported side effect from the consumption of drugs (changes in appetite, taste and body weight). Although the effect of food on drugs has not been well studied, scientists are gaining knowledge about the impact of food on drug absorption and metabolism. Because food and orally administered medications are usually taken together, their potential interaction should be taken into account. Patients at greatest risk of experiencing adverse consequences are the elderly and the chronically ill and it would be advisable to better understand these interactions.
