The film centers on Frank Detorre, a slovenly zookeeper; the live-action scenes are set outside Frank's body, while the animated scenes are set inside his body, which is portrayed as a city inhabited by anthropomorphic microorganisms. Street-smart white blood cell cop Osmosis "Ozzy" Jones and stoic cold pill Drix must prevent deadly virus Thrax from killing Frank within forty-eight hours. The film was met with mixed reviews, and earned $14 million against a budget of $70 million. Despite the lack of accolades, it sold well in home media. It also served as the pilot to the Kids' WB television series Ozzy & Drix (2002–04), where Ozzy and Drix get transferred by a mosquito to the body of a teenage boy named Hector Cruz and continue their battle against germs and viruses from there. Osmosis Jones made its Cartoon Network premiere on December 19, 2003, as part of their Friday night programming block Fridays. It aired on the network several more times until 2006, but has not been seen since.

Since the human body is fictionalized as a city in the film, the blood vessels and arteries resemble freeways and highways, the nerve endings and Nervous System resemble power lines and electrical substations, the lymph nodes resemble police stations, the stomach functions as an airport with arrivals, the urinary bladder functions as a cruise ship terminal with departures to leave the body, the bowels resemble a city dump and a harbor, the inner nose resembles a dam, the eyes functions as an amusement park ("See World"), the uvula resembles an observation tower, a zit resembles a nightclub, and the Brain resembles a city hall and a power plant.

Limited merchandise was created due to the film's financial failure.
