The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The substances of interest include any chemical xenobiotics such as pharmaceutical drugs, pesticides, food additives, cosmetics, etc. PK attempts to analyze chemical metabolism and discover the fate of a chemical from the moment that it is administered up to the point at which it is completely eliminated from the body.
- PK is based on mathematical modeling that places great emphasis on the relationship between drug plasma concentration and the time elapsed since the drug's administration.
- Pharmacokinetics is the study of how an organism affects the drug, whereas pharmacodynamics is the study of how the drug affects the organism.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Pharmacokinetics article was read about 65,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 74 and blocks with 59: each hit it takes is cut by 24 %.
