(206 cards)
Predicts the RATE of movement of molecules
Fick’s law of diffusion
Increase lipid solubility means increased absorption
True
Increased aqueous solubility means increased clearance
True
Pharmacokinetics is the?
Interaction of the body to the drug
Pharmacodynamics is the?
Interaction of the drug to the body
Relationshipd between ph and charge of molecule is predicted by?
Henderson-hasselbach equation
Which drugs are not given via IM due to the risk of causing hematomas?
Anticoagulants
Which route has partial bypass?
Rectal route cause the superior rectal vein absorptive n leads to bypass
Slowest route of drug administration
Topical route (local effect)
What route of administration undergoes first pass effect?
Oral route
Drug distribution is dependent on 4 factors which are?
Blood flow
Organ size
Protein binding
Solubility
Metabolic fate of the Drug?
A CITVATED
T ERMINATED
E LIMNATED
What Is the mode of elimination for drugs that are not metabolized?
Excretion
Rate of elimination is PROPORTIONATE to the CONCENTRATION
Rate of elimination decreases by 50% everytime
FIRST ORDER ELIMINNATION (most common)
Rate of elimination is CONSTANT regardless of concentration
Zero-order elimination
Concentration decreases linearly overtime
Zero-order elimination
What drugs display zero order kinetics?
WHAT PET (TOL BUTA ka naa sa sIDE o?)
Warfarin Heparin Aspirin Tolbutamide Phenytoin Ethanol Theophylline
Properties of a receptor
PMS
Most are PROTEINS
must be MODIFIED
must be SELCTIVE
_______ is the concentration required to bind 50% of the receptors
Kd
Smaller kd greater affinity
Concentration of a drug wherein half of the maximal effect is achieved
EC50
Maximal effect of a drug is defined by
EMAX
Maximal number of receptors bound are called
BMax
How do we compute for a THERAPEUTIC INDEX?
TI = TD50 / ED50
Higher TI the safer the drug
What is the therapeutic window?
It is the dose RANGE between the MEC and MTC
