Pharmacology for dummies
Specialized transport *Carrier transport *Facilitated diffusion • Passive diffusion and filtration do not require help of other molecules • Drugs move across on their own • But facilitated diffusion, under carrier mediated transport, require the help of other molecules-Carrier proteins!
