When you swallow a pill, it enters your digestive system and travels down the esophagus to the stomach. Once in the stomach, the pill dissolves and releases its contents, which then get absorbed into the bloodstream. The liver then filters the medication and metabolizes it. Any remaining medication then travels to the kidneys for elimination through urine. However, certain factors like food, medication interactions, and health conditions can affect how quickly and efficiently a pill is digested. #animation #shorts #digestion #medicine
