Video from Tips & Tricks by AMB on YouTube

Describe renal excretion: glomerular filtration, active tubular secretion and passive tubular reabsorption; explain the effect of urinary pH (e.g. urinary alkalinisation in salicylate poisoning).

The part on this line: 0:55–1:35

Why this video

This video directly explains the three processes of renal drug excretion—glomerular filtration, active tubular secretion, and passive tubular reabsorption—and how urinary pH and drug pKa influence reabsorption.

Heads up

The video goes beyond this objective by discussing non-renal excretion pathways such as biliary and pulmonary elimination, as well as pharmacokinetic clearance kinetics.
