An unionized drug tends to be lipophilic (and hence, would be
hydrophobic). Thus, an ionized drug on the other hand would be
lipophobic (i.e. the opposite of lipophilic), lipid-hating.

the nature of interaction depends on whether they are lipophilic
or hydrophilic.
if both are hydorphilic ionic interaction, both lipophilic
hydrogen bonding. ionic if lipophilic-hydrophilic.

Drugs which are administered percutaneously, sublingually, or
have to cross the blood brain barrier have to be lipophilic.
