Q

Phase 2 of metabolism?

A

conjugation reaction.

adding endogenous polar molecule to drug.

19
Q

What happens in elimination of pharmacokinetics?

A

drugs undergo glomerular filtration to enter tubular fluids.

reabsorbed if not water soluble.

20
Q

% of given dose that reaches systemic circulation?>

A

Bioavailability

IV=100%

21
Q

Bioavailability is reduced by:

A
  • incomplete absorbtion

- first pass metabolism.

22
Q

Drug increases activity of enzymes responsible for its metabolism?

decreased?

A

enzyme induction

inhibition

23
Q

rate of elimination proportionate to concentration

A

first order elimination

24
Q

time is takes for concentration of drug to decrease to half the value it had at start of dosing interval?

A

half-life elimination.

25
A constant amount of drug is lost per unit time?
zero-order elimination
26
What are the enteral routes of administration?
oral/sublingual/rectal Parenteral: injection/inhale/topical/transdermal/IV
27
What is the goal of dosing?
to maintain a plasma concentration with a specified range over long periods of time
28
What does dosing take into consideration?
clearance desired plasma concentration bioavailability
29
Sites of drug action?
-receptor/ion channels -transport molecules enzymes direct bind to nucleic acids non-human targets
30
What is drug-receptor interaction?
drug combines with molecule on cell to produce biologic effect transmits conformational change to generate signal.
31
Transmembrane spanning proteins that allow selective passage of specific ions
ion channels
32
a compound that binds to a receptor and produces the biological response?
agonist partial agonist cant produce 100% response.
33
Blocks or reverse effect of agonist?
antagonists. competitive make less potent non-competitive bind to dif site.
34
dose at 1/2 Emax?
Kd/ EC50 small kd= more potent
35
What is equation for therapeutic index? do you want it big or small?
TD50/ED50 big so that more causes harm.
36
what changes in pharmacokinetics with age?
liver fx declines renal clearance declines maintenance dose decreases
37
expect a _____ increase in plasma drug levels at temps higher than 30 deg C
1.5-2.5 fold
38
Why is there delay in absorbtion of oral drugs with exercise?
slow gastric emptying. and slow bowel transit time.
39
What is reduced with exercise meaning more rapid elimination?
Vd
40
Low hepatic extraction drugs are generally not affected by change in blood flow due to exercise but may be affected by ____
level of fitness.
41
For high extraction ratio drugs, there is _______ during exercise
less metabolism
42
Regular exercise caused greater _____ and shortened ____
metabolism t1/2
43
GFR decreases______ with exercise. meaning
30%.. decreased elimination
44
What are some assumptions with exercise and drugs?
- decreased GI absorbtion - increased subQ/IM/transdermal absorption - reduced Vd/metabolism/elimination
