Which one of the following drugs does not undergo the first-pass effect?
Insulin bypasses hepatic effect. Pg.no. 260 KD TRIPATHI Seventh edition Drugs that undergo first-pass elimination are opioids, beta-adrenergic blockers, progesterone, isosorbide dinitrate etc. Subcutaneous administration of insulin delivered into the peripheral circulation can lead to near-normal glycemia but differs from the physiological secretion of insulin in two major ways: * The absorption kinetics do not reproduce the rapid rise and decline of endogenous insulin in response to changes in blood glucose. * Injected insulin is delivered into the peripheral circulation instead of being released into the poal circulation. Thus, the poal/peripheral insulin concentration is not physiological, and this may alter the influence of insulin on hepatic metabolism.
