Question

A drug’s efficacy may be affected by the degree to which it binds to plasma proteins. In comparing two drugs that vary in plasma protein binding, but have otherwise similar properties, the drug with the fraction bound to plasma proteins will be more pharmacologically active, as only drug can leave the systemic circulation.
