Answer :
- More glomerular filtration:
Children often have a higher glomerular filtration rate compared to adults, which can lead to faster elimination of certain drugs through the kidneys.
- Less fatty tissue:
This can affect the distribution and storage of lipophilic (fat-soluble) drugs, possibly leading to a faster overall elimination.
- Greater hepatic capacity:
Children generally have a more active liver, with greater metabolic capacity, which can increase the rate at which drugs are metabolized and eliminated.
Given these points, the correct answer is:
A: All the above
