Book Description:

The peroral application (swallowing) of a medicine means that the body must first resorb the active substance before it can begin to take effect. Since many pharmacologically active substances are poorly suited for oral intake, a decisive criterion for the efficacy of a medicine is its so-called bioavailability.
