Hepatic first pass effect: All drug dose absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract is first delivered to the liver by the portal vein. A fraction of the drug can then be metabolized in the liver before it even reaches the systemic circulation. Therefore the oral bioavailability of the drug is reduced.
