Answer to Question #105079 in Biology for Kylie

Question

Sometimes drug metabolism processes become more effective, which can lead to:
1. Drug toxicity
2. Drug tolerance
3. Drug overdose
4. Liver failure

Answer 1

2. Drug tolerance.

If drug metabolism becomes more effective, the therapeutic drug concentration in blood and tissues cannot be reached. As the drug is metabolized rapidly, it has no effect and drug tolerance is developed.
