Fasting for an extended period can:
 
  1. Increase drug absorption due to lack of competition between food and the drug
  2. Alter the pH of the gastrointestinal tract, affecting absorption
  3. Cause vasoconstriction, leading to decreased drug absorption
  4. Shrink the stomach, causing decreased surface area for drug absorption

Question 2

Food in the gastrointestinal tract affects drug absorption by:
 
  1. Altering the pH of the colon, which decreases absorption
  2. Competing with the drug for plasma proteins
  3. Altering gastric emptying time
  4. Altering the pH of urine
