How do competitive inhibitors affect Km?
Increase Km (dec affinity)
The further to the right the x-intercept (ie, closer to zero), the greater the ___ and the lower ______.
The further to the right the x-intercept (ie, closer to zero), the greater the Km and the lower the affinity.
Which type of inhibitor will cross x-intercept of an unihibited substrate?
What does that x-intercept represent?
non competitive inhibitor
X-intercept = 1/-Km
What type of inhibitor will cross the y-intercept of an unihibited substrate? What is that y-intercept = to?
competitive inhibitor
y-intercept = 1/Vmax
Competitive (-)’r of Diazepam? What is the rec’r?
Flumazenil
GABAA- R
Competitive (-)’r vs organophosphates?
Atropine
Competitive (-)’r of xanthine oxidase?
Allopurinol
ex of competitive ACh antagonist
neuromuscular blocking drugs
Atracurium, cisatracurium, pancuronium, rocuronium, tubocurarine, vecuronium
competitive aldosterone receptor antagonists in cortical collecting tubule?
Spironolactone, Eplerenone
Competitive inhibitors of progestins at progesterone receptors?
Mifepristone, ulipristal.
Nonsteroidal competitive inhibitor at androgen receptors? use?
Flutamide; Prostate carcinoma

How does competitive antagonists affect efficacy and potency?
dec potency; doesn’t change efficacy
How does a non competitive antagonist affect potency and efficacy?
dec potency and efficacy
How does partial agonist affect potency?
It doesn’t - it is independent of it.
How does efficacy of a partial agonist compare vs a full agonist?
It has less efficacy than a full agonist
How to calc loading dose?
(Cp × Vd) / F
Cp - plasma conc
Vd - Vol of distribution
F = bioavail
How to calc maintenance dose?
Maintenance dose =
(Cp × CL × τ )/ F
Cp = target plasma concentration at steady state
Cl = clearence τ = dosage interval (time between doses), if not administered continuousl
F = bioavail
In renal or liver disease, maintenance dose ____ and loading dose is usually ______.
In renal or liver disease, maintenance dose Dec and loading dose is usually unchanged.
Time to steady state depends primarily on _____ and is independent of ____ and _____ ________.
Time to steady state depends primarily on t1/2 and is independent of dose and dosing frequency.
How to calc t1/2?
t1/2 = (0.7 × Vd)/Cl in first-order elimination
