18
Q

Altered pH (Absorption)

A
  • Gastric/intestinal pH alter absorption
  • Antacids increase gastric pH & absorption
19
Q

Chelation/Binding (Absorption)

A
  • Drugs bind together within intestine
  • Formation of insoluble complexes, no absorption
20
Q

Bile Acid Sequestrates

A
  • Bind intestinal bile acids
  • Prevent intestine absorption
  • Only free drug can be absorbed
  • Excreted in feces
21
Q

Altered Blood Flow (Absorption)

A
  • Decrease flow = decreased absorption
22
Q

Epinephrine & Anesthetic

A
  • Causes vasoconstriction
  • Decreases anesthetic absorption
  • Allows anesthetic to stay at injection site
  • Preventing pain sensation
23
Q

Gut Motility (Absorption)

A
  • Increased motility = decreased absorption
  • Opiate drugs decrease motility
  • Laxatives increase motility
24
Q

Vomiting (Absorption)

A
  • Decrease absorption
  • Monitor nausea/vomit side effects
  • 20-30min after admin = incomplete absorption
  • Drug must enter intestine before vomit
25
Intestinal Bacteria Killing (Absorption)
- Enterohepatic recycling - Decrease deconjugation & absorption - Decrease plasma drug conc
26
Altering pH (Distribution)
- Influence ionization of other drugs - pH partitioning changes extracellular pH - Draw drug outside cell
27
Protein Binding (Distribution)
- Drugs bound to same plasma protein site - Competition for binding - Lower affinity drug becomes free - Increase therapeutic effect, toxicity, excretion
28
CYP Induction (Metabolism)
- Increase synthesis of CYP enzymes - Increase metabolism - Delay induction (2-10 days) - Inducer stopped CYP levels return to normal (7-10 days)
29
CYP Inducers
- Cigarettes/marijuana - Rifampin (induces CYP3A4) - Phenobarbital (various) - BBQ food (induces CYP1A2) - Alcohol (induces CYP2E1)
30
CYP Inhibition (Metabolism)
- Intestine/liver - Decrease metabolism - Increase plasma conc - Pro-drug decreases metabolic activity
31
CYP Inhibitors
- Antibiotics/anti-fungal (CYP3A4) - HIV protease (CYP3A4) - Omeprazole (CYP2C19) - Serotonin reuptake (CYP2D6) - Fluvoxamine (CYP1A2) - Grapefruit juice (CYP3A4)
32
Altered Blood Flow (Excretion)
- Decrease renal flow = decrease glomerular filtration - Decrease renal excretion - Increase plasma drug conc
33
Decreasing Renal Flow
- Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) - Beta blockers
34
Altered pH (Excretion)
- pH partitioning & ion trapping - Alter excretion - Overdose treatment
35
Tubular Secretion
- Mediated by proximal tubule transporters - Block transporter - Block drug secretion into lumen - Decrease excretion - Increase plasma conc
36
Pharmacodynamic Interaction Types
- Same receptor - Different sites
37
Same Receptor Interaction
- Antagonist blocking action of agonist - Decrease therapeutic effects - Decrease toxicity (OD)
38
Different Site Interaction
- Drugs produce same physiological response
39
Combined Toxicity
- Multiple drugs produce same toxic effect
40
Monoamine Oxidase (MAO) BAD Food Interactions
- Cheese - Yeast - Red wine - Sauerkraut - Cured meat
41
MAO Inhibitors
- Inhibit tyramine breakdown - Strict dietary restrictions
42
Tyramine
- Increased norepinephrine release - Peripheral nerve terminals - Hypertensive crisis
43
Hypertension Signs
- Tachycardia - Headache - Nausea/vomit
