you need to consider the desired onset of action, inhalation and injections will be much faster than oral route. First pass metabolism should also be considered, since highly hepatic extracted molecules will not yield high bio-availability by oral route.
ADME properties is complex term, I will just let you know about oral dosage. because there is a lot in it. For oral Drug: Absorption;Consider Solubility of drug, PKa of drug, molecular weight of drug, drug lipophilicity, these are properties which lead to absorption of drug. Distribution; Consider passive or active movements to or from the cells, permeability of drug,etc. Metabolism; consider the enzyme , transporter, or binding protein that is involved in specific drug metabolism etc. Excretion; Try to get which process do the drug follow to get excrete ,may be drug majorly excrete through feces,may be by urine excretion. so lot of factors or as you say properties have to look into for the purpose. these are very basic things in it. Hope you might get these and be helpful to you.
There are no such fixed criteria related to PK parameters for each and every drugs. Base on pharmacodynamics and efficacy parameters as well as pilot controlled study of PK evaluation dose of a drug or chemical can be set. for example: To produce efficacious antimicrobial effect in vivo, antibiotics must sutisfy Cmax/MIC and AUC/MIC ratio in case of drug having concentrate dependent killing. Similarly other dug must attained concentration above minimum effective concentration. Duration is also important. Upon change in route of drug administration, PK parameters will be changed and accordingly applicability in a perticular dose level in animals may also changed. The chemistry of a drug molecule also give some hints regards to choice of route of drug administration and disposition in body.
