Q
when determining the dosage of a drug, what is the overall consideration?
A
concentration must be large enough to produce a beneficial response without being toxic
22

23
Q
dose-response concepts: efficacy vs. potency
A
efficacy
-dosage ranges over which the drug has desired effect
-magnitude of response increases as dosage increases (up to some maximum effect)
potency
-threshold dose that produces a given response
-higher potency means less of the compound is required to produce a given response
-lower threshold dose = greater potency

receptors
```
38
what is efficacy
drug's ability to produce a desired response
39
which route of administration does phonophoresis and iontophoresis
transdermal
40
enteral
- characteristics
- absorbed by...
- drug must have...
```
usually oral
easiest for self-administration
generally safe, controlled entry to system
absorbed by small intestine
drug must have high lipid solubility
```
41
enteral
| -first pass effect
metabolism/destruction of drug molecule in liver before reaching its site of action
42
parenteral
| -characteristics
bypass the GI system
more direct route to target site
more predictable quantity
not subject to "first pass effect"
43
bioavailability
- what is it
- depends on...
% of drug administered that reaches the bloodstream
depends on
-route of administration and the drug's ability to cross membrane barriers
-extent of first pass metabolism
44
why is the SI the primary location of drug absorption
surface area
45
which drugs are absorbed out of the stomach
weak acids
46
which drugs are absorbed out of the SI (duodenum)
weak bases
47
bioavailability factors
body membrane structure and function
drug movement across membrane barriers
active transport
48
factors that affect distribution
tissue permeability
blood flow
plasma protein binding
subcellular protein binding
49
serum protein binding
drugs will sometime attach to plasma proteins
proteins allow the drug to stay in the blood, but a drug that is bound to plasma protein cannot leave the blood to distribute into tissues and is inactive
drug that is unbound (free) may distribute from blood to tissues and is active
50
volume of distribution (Vd)
| -what is it
amount of drug administered / concentration of drug in plasma
51
```
if Vd...
-equals total amount of body water
-greater than total amount of body water
-less than total amount of body water
slides 80-83
```
equal
-uniform body distribution
greater than
-drug is being concentrated in the tissues
less than
-drug is being retained in the bloodstream (due to plasma protein binding for example)
52
when does apparent volume of distribution come into play?
when there is some material that absorbs the drug and prevents it from showing up when you try and check the Vd
53
primary sites of drug storage
| -what type of drugs are stored in each?
```
adipose tissue
-primary site; ex: anesthetics
bone
-toxic agents; ex: lead
muscle
-long-term storage; ex: anti-malarials
organs
-often liver and kidneys; ex: anti-microbials
```
54
other (new) drug delivery examples

58
drug elimination
| -what are mechanisms for doing this?
biotransformation
excretion
combination
-of the above 2
59
biotransformation
- aka
- what is it
aka metabolism
| chemical altering of a drug to a metabolite via enzymes to deactivate that drug
60
excretion
- what is it
- common methods
excreting the active form of a drug
methods
-liver to SI via bile duct
-through kidneys
61
biotransformation-cellular mechanisms
oxidation
reduction
hydrolysis
conjugation
62
drug metabolism
- where
- how
- other factors
```
where
-primary location: liver
-lungs, kidneys, GI, skin
how
-biotransformation
other factors
-tissue/organ damage
-metabolic inhibitors
-enzyme induction
```
63
competitive inhibition of metabolism
inhibition of the enzyme that metabolizes drug B, by drug A, decreases the metabolism of drug B
if drug A forms a covalent bond with the enzyme, then you have to wait for the cell to make more enzymes for drug B to have effect
64
induction of metabolism
induction of the enzyme that metabolizes drug B, by drug A, increases the metabolism of drug B by increasing the enzyme quantity
65
factors affecting excretion
```
reabsorption
polarity of metabolite
ionized=polar
polar drugs tend to be excreted
non-polar drugs tend to be reabsorbed into body versus being excreted
```
66
drug elimination rates
| -two key ideas
clearance
| half-life
67
clearance (CL)
- what is it
- equation
- dependent on...
- what is systemic CL
the ability of one organ or all organs to clear a drug
CL = Q x ((Ci-Co/Ci))
dependent on organ ability to extract drug from plasma and perfusion
systemic CL
-sum of individual organ CLs
68
CL factors
blood flow to organ (Q)
extraction ratio - the fraction of drug removed from the plasma as it passes through the organ (Ci-Co)
concentration
69
half-life
duration of activity of the compound in the body
the amount of time required for 50% of the drug remaining in the body to be eliminated
a function of both clearance and volume of distribution
70
dosing schedules
| -2 types
continuous administration
| interval administration
71
continuous administration
matching the rate of administration with the rate of drug elimination (clearance) once the desired plasma concentration in achieved
after 5 half-lives of a drug you will reach a steady state
72
interval administration
```
dosage is adjusted to provide an average plasma concentration over the dosing period
dosing interval (time in hours) will affect size of dosage need to maintain same relative plasma concentration
```
73
what is a receptor
a cellular component where a drug binds and initiates a chain of biochemical events
74
surface receptors
- location
- responsive to...
- recognize and effect change by...
```
located on outer cell membrane
responsive to amino acid peptides, or amine compounds
recognize and effect change by
-ion channel/membrane permeability
-enzymatic effects
-regulatory protein links
```
75
surface mechanisms
receptor + ion channels
enzymes + receptors
regulatory proteins + receptors
76
receptor + ion channels
ACh example
| -ACh binds to receptor which activates opening pore in membrane allowing sodium in
77
enzymes + receptors
protein tyrosine kinases
| -outer surface stimulation activates inner surface wall enzymatic process
78
regulatory proteins + receptors
proteins are located on inner surface of membrane
G-proteins when stimulated then activates enzymes or Ion channels
2nd messenger system
79
intracellular receptors
- location
- examples
- generally control...
located at cytoplasm and nucleus
a specific interaction mechanism for hormones
examples: thyroid hormones; steroids
generally control gene expression when activate
80
drug-receptor interactions
| -successful binding is affected by...
drug size
drug shape/fit: key-lock analogy
affinity
presence of allosteric modulators
81
affinity
electrostatic attraction between a drug and receptor
related to the drug amount required to bind to the unoccupied receptors (if affinity is low, higher concentrations may be needed)
82
what are allosteric modulators
local modulators that affect affinity of receptor portion of bond
83
drug selectivity
a drug affects only one type of cell or tissue and produces a specific physiologic response
84
dose response
- what is it
- can also be affected by
```
response is essentially proportion to the number of receptors occupied by the drug
not always a linear relationship
can be affected by
-affinity
-receptor signal transmission
```
85
what is an agonist
| -what is a partial agonist
drug capable of binding to a receptor and activating change in the cell's function
has both affinity and efficacy
partial agonists
-create a less than optimal response even though they are capable of occupying receptors
86
what is an antagonist
- example
- competitve vs irreversible
drug capable of binding to a receptor but unable to create change in the receptor cell's function
has affinity, but not activity
occupy valuable receptor site thereby "blocking" agonists from binding
example: beta blockers
competitve or irreversible
competitve antagonists can be displaced with higher concentrations of a drug agonist, but irreversible antagonists form permanent bonds that prevent agonists from binding
87
receptor regulation
a prolonged increase in receptor stimulation will result in a decrease in receptor function (due to agonists)
a decrease in receptor stimulation will result in an increase in receptor numbers or sensitivity (due to antagonists)
