The effects of fluid redistribution induced by weightlessness on the fluid and electrolyte regulation, the maintenance of optimum nutritional status, and on pharmacodynamics (i.e., the absorption, distribution, and elimination of pharmacologic agents) are examined on the basis of published data on flights aboard Skylab and Space Shuttle. Data are presented on changes in plasma osmolarity and the content of antinuclear factor, serum glucose, and the salivary scopolamine concentrations after oral administration before and during space flights.
