Module 1: Section 4 Flashcards
(38 cards)
ADME
absorption, distribution, metabolism, exertion (determines concentration of drug in blood, determined concentration of drug at site of action.
routes of administration
topical, eternal, parental
topical
on skin, through skin, inhalation
enernal
admin via GI tract - mouth, rectum, sublingual (tounge), buccal(cheek)
Parental
intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous
systemic
something that affects the whole body or multiple organ systems
on skin
skin conditions
transdermal
nicotine patch, conveinent, steady supply of drug (no frequent oral dosing), bypasses enymes of stomach, intestine, liver , - but expensive and can cause loacal irritation
Inhalation
rapidly absorbed from lungs. administered through lungs for local and systemic affects - anesthetics, steroids for lung disease. qauntity of drug is small, less required. But requires proper use by patient
enternal
enter blood through GI tract. when absorbed in GI, goes to liver. liver has enzymes that decrease amount of active drug ledt to enter general circulation - First pass effect
Enternal - mouth
how most drugs administered. most convientent, least expensice, non invasive, self administered BUT variable absorption bc differences in intestinal mobility and disease
Enternal - Rectum
systemic or local effect, use for patinets who are vomiting, less invasive for comatose, digestive enzymes bypassed. BUT limited number of medication this way, absorption is slow, incomplete, variable
Enternal - Sublingual and Buccal
enzyme of stomach, intestines, liver all bypassed BUT not all adequettly absorbed and drug may be swollowed
Paretnal - Intravenous
immediate effect. used for drugs that are porrly absorbed as long as they can be made into a solution of purified water. response is irreversable - highets risk for drug interactions. requires significant human resources + sterile peperations free of fever producting substansaes (pyrogens)
parental - Intramuscular
injected deep in msucle. volume of drug is limited to 2-3 ml for adult
Parental - subcutantous
injected in deepest layer of skin. allows for modificaon of drug preperarions to contol timing of release from injection site
bioavailability
the fraction of an administered dose that reached the systemic circulation (blood) in active form
Bioavailability - topical
rapid to slow, 5 -100%
Bioavailability - enternal
mouth - slow 30 -1 hour (5-100%)
rectum - slow and incomplete (30-100%)
Under tounge - rapid 1-2 min (30-100%)
cheek - intermediate 3-4 min - 30-100)
Bioavailability - parenteral
IV -15-30 sec - 100
Muscle - 10 - 20 min - 75-100
under skin - 15-30 min - 74-100
absorption
movement of drug from site of administration into blood
distribution
movement of a drug from the blood to the site of action and other tissues. most drugs reach all tissues and organs +target site. concentration in equilibrium. is concentration in blood drops below concentration at any site, drug move from that site to the blood to maintin equillibrium. greater the blood flow to an orgen, the more rapidly drugs reach that organ and vice versa.
distribution and termination
distribtution can result in termination of the theraputic effect for some drugs
thiopentnal
Iv absorption, concentration is high, high in brain, patient falls asleep. concentraiton in muscle and fat increases , concentration in blood decreases, causes frug to leave brain and move into bloos. as concentration in brain decreases, patient awakens
