How does your body process medicine? - Céline Valéry

Have you ever wondered what happens to a painkiller, like ibuprofen, after you swallow it? Medicine that slides down your throat can help treat a headache, a sore back, or a throbbing sprained ankle. But how does it get where it needs to go in the first place? Céline Valéry explains how your body processes medicine.

Lesson by Céline Valéry, animation by Daniel Gray.

Probably the best and simplest explanation of pharmacodynamics I've ever seen. Brilliant. Thanks.

Not a medical professional or student. Just a sick guy at home curious about how this works. Fantastically simple explanation. I'm sure there is more nuance I'm gonna miss but this answered my questions. Thanks for the video!

So much respect for doctors, scientists, and just modern medicine for their contribution to the world 👏🏼

I fucking love how you guys turn complex subjects like this into simple and interesting animated videos

I learned way more in this 4 minute video than I did doing two years of biology in high school

Has anyone got that feeling when they're stuck in the Ted Ed loop? LIke, it's so hard ignore a Ted Ed vid in your recommendations and when you click it and finish it, there's always another one waiting for you in the side column. I've already got 2 hours of watching Ted Ed alone... But anyways, thank you so much Ted Ed for answering so many of our biggest questions.

My GCSE Biology exam is tomorrow, great video but I'm still panicking. Loved the animation.

[MountyDani]

This is honestly one of the best (and well explained/simple) videos I think I have ever watched. The animation is excellent and the narration is superb. I now understand how the body processes medicine more clearly now. Thank you.

I'm so thankful for this video! I Study medicine and had been trying to process a pharmacology lecture on this topic just now. SO glad I saw this before going to bed <3. Keep up the good work!

[jimmybfmv]

Watching it as a pharmacy student, all I have to say is: great video for everyone to understand the basics! Well done guys 💯

[raajnishkdas]

This channel provides me with information that I didn't really seek for, but I'm grateful nonetheless to have known it now.

[scottzvidzo]

This is why I love animated, simplified stuff for complex subjects like these, everybody gets it.

[oldlogin]

This is one of the best explanatory animations I've seen on anything. Great job.

[hujan]

The visuals and the concise explanation with examples made it easy to understand even for the non-experts. It was great.

[danielf]

The animation, the music, her voice is so soothing! Amazing job!

[kawaiime]

Amazing explanation. No one ever said me my body goes through so much trouble for my life and I'm so ungrateful.
Alhamdulillah ya Rab❤️

How does alcohol affects this process? I see warnings not to take medicines with alcohol
