Q

Nervous system

A

peripheral
central

24
Q

central NS

A

brain
spinal cord

25
Peripheral NS
Autonomic NS Somatic NS
26
Autonomic NS
sympathetic NS Parasympathetic NS
27
Somatic nervous system
made up of spinal nerves and cranial nerves
28
spinal nerves
mixed nerves that carry sensory info INTO and motor commands OUT of the spinal cord
29
Cranial nerves
nerve fibers that carry info into and out of brain stem
30
sympathetic division of autonomic NS
"fight flight freeze fawn" controls fx that accompany arousal and expenditure of energy coordinates responses to a stressor "thoracolumbar system" dilated pupils, inhibits salivation, accelerates heart rate
31
parasympathetic division of autonomic NS
"rest and digest" involved in increases in body's supply of stored energy coordinates rest and relax response after the body has been stressed "craniosacral system" vagus nerve responsible for the calming following a stressful situation constricts pupil, stimulates salivation, slows heart rate
32
______ L /min blood pumped every ________
5 minute
33
entire volume of blood supply circulates every _____
minute
34
Intravenous administration
fastest and most dangerous 30-60 seconds right into blood stream
35
intraperitoneal administration
into stomach
36
intramuscular administration
into muscle
37
subcutaneous administration
into fat
38
intracerebral administration
bypasses the BBB into brain
39
intracerebroventricular administration
into ventricular system to reach CSF bypasses BBB
40
oral administrations
sublingual - under tongue most common "first pass" metabolism
41
intrarectal administration
into the rectum
42
inhalation administration
into the lungs
43
insufflation administration
into the nasal passages
44
topical administration
onto skin
45
distribution
entry of drugs into the brain drugs exert effects only at their sites of action mostly on or in cells of the CNS
46
most important factor in determining the rate of distribution .... (and why)
lipid solubility lipid soluble materials pass through BBB the most rapidly heroin > morphine
47
primary organ of excretion
kidney
48
organ that plays active role in enzymatic deactivation
Liver (and brain but to a smaller extent)
49
Therapeutic index
a commonly used margin of safety ED50 and TD50 provide a ratio which - therapeutic index (TD50/ED50) quantitative measurement of the relative safety of a drug
50
therapeutic index: effective dose 50
(ED50) the dose that produces the desired effects in 50% of individuals
51
therapeutic index: toxic dose 50
(TD50) the dose that produces toxic effects in 50% of individuals
52
Ideal therapeutic index
>10
53
drugs with low TI
litium carbamazepine valproic acid clozapine tricyclic antidepressents
54
agonist
a molecule that binds to the receptor to stimulate a response = increased postsynaptic effects ex) addictive drugs (heroin, morphine) = stimulation = high
55
antagonists
a molecule that by binding to a receptor blocks or inhibits the response = decreased postsynaptic effects botulin poison causes paralysis by blocking the release of acetylcholine = wrinkles cannot form d/t the area being paralyzed
