9
Q

Reasons for Impeded drug

A

Drug bound to protein

Drugs that cannot pass through cell membrane

Enterally delivered drugs metabolized before able to act by liver (first-pass effect)

17
Q

Pharmacodynamics

A

Body’s response after drug binds

18
Q

Why we choose inhalation

A

Direct delivery
Rich Blood Supply
“No first pass”

19
Q

Impediments of inhalation

A

Contact time
Device
Disposition
Disease state
Patient Technique

20
Q

Particle size removed at nose?

A

> 10 um

21
Q

Particle size removed at mouth

A

> 15um

22
Q

Particle size removed at first “6” generations

A

5-10 um

23
Q

Particle size removed at last “5-6” generations

A

1-5 um

24
Q

Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter?

A

Measures Geometric size

25
Q

Geometric Standard Deviation

A

Measures variation of particle size distribution

26
Q

Hetrerodisperse?

A

Wide range on sizes (>GSD)

27
Q

Monodisperse?

A

All particles are similar size (<GSD)

28
Q

Disposition for lung parenchyma?

A

0.8-3 um

29
Q

Particle size for seasonal rhinitis

A

> 10 um (corticosteroids)

30
Q

Particle size to numb oropharynx

A

5-10 um (lidocaine in prep for broncoschopy

31
Q

Particle size for bronchodilators

A

2-5 um

32
Q

Particle size for antiifective agents

A

1-2 um (lung parenchyma ⬇️ irritation of AW & ⬆️ intraalveolar disposition)

33
Q

Inertia?

A

The tendency of a particle w/ mass to go straight

34
Q

Gravitation sedimentation?

A

Tendency of gravity to pull particles out of suspension to settle on surfaces

35
Q

Diffusion (definition)

A

Tendency of small particles by “Brownian motion” to strike surface and settle

36
Q

Factors that influence Inertia?

A

Greater the mass and velocity of the particle

Velocity higher in upper and early generations

Airflow is turbulent

37
Q

Factors that influence gravitational sedimentation?

A

Larger particles subjected to gravity. Smaller remain suspended

Slower speeds

Time

38
Q

Brownian motion

A

Affects particles > 1um (0.1-1 um remain in suspension)

Moves particles toward alveoli

Time: particles reach eventually. Exhalation might start before settle.

39
Q

Factors that affect biodynamic

A

Variability
Affinity
Agonism
Potency

40
Q

Regular aerosols? (8)

A

Tobacco smoke
Secondhand smoke
Smoke of Elicit drugs
Automobile exhaust
Charcoal grill smoke
Smoke from burning building
Workplace aerosol
Spray deodorant

41
Q

Target for bronchodilator? (AW Gen)

A

Lower Respiratory

42
Q

Antiinfective target? (Gen)

A

Parenchyma
