Basic Principles Flashcards
____ actions of a drug on the body
Pharmacodynamics
___ actions of the body on the drug
Pharmacokinetics
Arrange to according to decreasing strength
Covalent, Hydrophobic, Electrostatic bonds
- Covalent
- Electrostatic
- Hydrophobic bonding
[Type of diffusion]
passive movement of non-protein bound drugs
Aqueous diffusion
[Type of diffusion]
affected by the drug concentration and charge
Aqueous diffusion
[Type of diffusion]
governed by Fick’s Law of Diffusion
Aqueous diffusion, Lipid Diffusion
[Type of diffusion]
movement of drugs through lipid membranes from ECF to the ICF
lipid diffusion
[Type of diffusion]
most important limiting factor for permeation
Lipid diffusion
[Type of diffusion]
important for the diffusion of weak acids and weak bases
Lipid diffusion
[Type of diffusion]
for drugs that do not readily cross through membranes; transported across barriers by mechanisms that carry similar endogenous substances
transport by special carriers
[Type of diffusion]
not governed by Fick’s law of diffusion is capacity-limited
transport by special carriers
[Type of diffusion]
vitamin B12 bound to intrinsic factor is a type of _____
endocytosis
pinocytosis
[Type of diffusion]
iron bound to transferrin
endocytosis and pinocytosis
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
____ is directly proportional to electrostatic charge
directly proportiona
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
ionized and polar drugs _____ (water/lipid soluble)
water soluble
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
this is associated with an increased clearance
water soluble
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
inversely proportional to electrostatic charge
inversely proportional
What are the 3 dependent factors for permeation?
- Solubility
- Concentration gradient
- Surface area and vascularity
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
unprotonated weak acid
more water-soluble, better clearance
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
protonated weak acid
more lipid soluble, more likely to cross biological membranes
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
unprotonated weak base
more lipid soluble, cross biological membrane
[Water/Lipid Solubility of Drugs]
protonated weak base
more water soluble, better clearance
[Absorption/Excretion]
if a compound is placed in a solution above its pKa
this favors? (Absorption/excretion)
favors absorption
Above its pKa, unprotonated form predominates, which favors absorption
[Absorption/Excretion]
if a compound is s placed in a solution below its pKa
this favors? (Absorption/excretion)
favors excretion
Below its pKa, protonated form predominates, which favors absorption
[Absorption/Excretion]
if a weak base is placed in an acidic environment?
this favors? (Absorption/excretion)
favors excretion
Again, basic drugs are excreted in an acidic environment
[Absorption/Excretion]
if an acidic compound is placed in an alkalitic environment
this favors? (Absorption/excretion)
favors excretion
What are the 3 major factors that affect drug absorption>
- Route of administration
- Blood flow
- Concentration
[Route of drug administration]
highest first pass effect?
oral route
[Route of drug administration]
potentially more dangerous
IV route
[Route of drug administration]
bypasses first pass effect
IV
IM
SQ
Buccal/Sublingual
[Route of drug administration]
anticoagulants cant be given by this route
IM
