Schedule V- moderate amts of controlled sub. (Lomotil, b/c atropine assoc with LSD)
34
If a medication is not lipid soluble (lipid bilayer) what do you need in order for the med to go into the cell?
ATP. Medications are either lipid or h2o soluble, need receptor to get in.
35
What are the 4 processes involved in pharmacokinetics?
```
Absorption
Distribution
Metabolism
Excretion
"what the body does to the drug" to reach ^.
```
36
What two processes are grouped as drug elimination or clearance mechanisms?
Metabolism and Excretion
37
What involves drug actions on target cells and the resulting alteration s in cellular biochemical reactions and functions?
Pharmacodynamics!
| "what the drug does to the body".
38
What is absorption?
The process of time it takes for the med to be absorbed in the blood stream. Onset of drug action is determined by rate of absorption.
39
What factors affect rate and extent of drug absorption?
dosage, route of administration, administration site blood flow and GI function
40
What is distribution?
The process in which drugs are carried by blood and tissue fluids to action sites, metabolism sites, and excretion sites.
Drugs are now in blood stream and will have its effects.
41
What meds bypass absorption?
IV meds, they go straight to distribution because directly in blood stream.
42
What factors affect distribution?
Blood flow, dehydration, blood disorder, and impaired circulation affects rate b/c of body circulation.
43
What two proteins carries meds to the site?
Globulin, and mostly Albumin
44
What is the metabolic process?
method by which drugs are inactivated or biotransfromed by the body. After the med reaches it's active site, need to remove residuals from med.
45
Where are drug metabolizing enzyme located?
Within the organs.
46
What is the prime organ to filter/metabolize meds?
Liver!
Skin meds- breathe out
H20 soluble- excrete by Kidneys.
47
What is excretion?
Elimination of a medication from the body. Turn to metabolites so body can excrete.
48
Excretion requires adequate functions of what organs?
Liver- circulatory system
Kidneys- urine/bowel. convert lipid sol to h20 sol b/c kidneys c/n excrete fat and needs to be h20 sol, for urine excretion (metabolism).
Lungs and skins-
49
What is the serum drug level?
A lab measurement of the amount of drug in the blood at a particular time.
Drug absorption
Bioavailabilty, halflife
Rate of metabolism and excretion
50
What is the serum drug level used for?
To prevent toxicity= excessive level of med in blood stream
| MEC- minimum effective concentration must be present for efficacy
51
Receptor theory of drug action?
Drugs exert their effects by chemically binding with receptor cells via:
activation, inactivation or alteration of intracellular enzymes, changes in permeability of cell memb, modification of the syntheysis of neurohormones.
52
What drugs do not need/act on receptor sites?
Antacids, osmotic diuretics, several anticancer drugs, and metal chelating agents.
53
What is dosage?
Refers to the frequency, size, and number of doses. Major determinant of drug actions and responses both therapeutic and adverse.
54
What characteristics does dosage depend on?
Recipient, age, weight, state of health, funct of cardiovascular, renal, and hepatic systems.
55
What are two outcomes of drug-diet interactions?
1. Some drugs are used therapeutically to decrease food absorption in intestinal tract (fat, cholesterol).
2. Some foods contain certain substances that react with certain drugs.
56
What foods does Tyramine interact with?
Cheese, sauerkraut, shoyu, beer, and red wines.
Interact with MAO inhibiters and causes norepinephrine release= vasoconstriction inactivated by MAO.
MAO inhibitor drugs precent inactivation of norepinephrine (antidep, antiparkinson drugs)
Resulting: sever HTN, intracranial HEMORRHAGE= death.
57
What drug does grapefruit interact with?
Statin group of cholesterol lowering drugs because grapefruit contains substance that inhibits drug metabolism, resulting TOXICITY.
58
Tetracyline (TCN) and dairy products?
Combines with Ca++ and excreted in feces. Antibiotic + dairy = combines with Ca== to form a nonabsorbable compound, excreted in feces.
59
What happens with a drug-drug interaction?
The action of a drug may be increased or decreased by its interaction with another drug in the body.
60
Additive effects
occur when two drugs with similar pharmacologic actions are take (e.g ethanol+sedative drug increases sedative effects)
61
Synergism
occurs when to drugs with different sites or mechanisms of action produce greater effects when taken together. (e.g acteminophen [nonopioid analgesic] + codeine [opioid analgesic] increase analgesic effects
62
Interference
By one drug with the metabolism of a second drug may result in intensified effects of the second drug. Result toxicity b/c blood levels of drug s are higher. (large dose action)
63
Displacement
(e.g- a drug with a strong attraction to protein binding sites may displace a less tightly bound drug of one drug from plasma protein binding sites by a 2nd drug increases effects of displaced drug.
64
What are 3 drug related variables that decrease the effects of a drug?
1. Antidote- drug can be given to antagonize the toxic effects of another drug.
2. Decreased intestinal absorption- occurs when drugs combine to produce nonabsorbable compounds.d
3. Activation of drug metabolizing enzymes in lover, increases the metabolism rate of any drug metabolized mainly by that group of enzeymes and therefore decreases the drug's effects
65
What is the most common way a drug is administered and why?
