A

the extent of absorption of reference drug

similar experimental conditions in either a single dose or multiple doses and the difference from the reference drug in rate of absorption of test is intentional and mentioned on its proposed labelling

Whole blood contains_______________.

_______________ is most commonly used for measuring drug concentration.

Plasma perfuses _______________

For practical purpose, it is assumed that t____________is in dynamic equilibrium with the tissues, the changes in plasma drug concentration will reflect corresponding changes in tissue drug concentration.

Plasma: __________coloured clear liquid, _________% water,____________% of solid Serum= plasma -fibrinogen

A

Measurement of drug concentration in the blood, plasma or serum is the most convenient and direct method to assess the PK of the drug in the body.

Whole blood contains formed elements (WBCs, RBCs and platelets) and protein like albumin and globulins.

Generally serum or plasma is most commonly used for measuring drug concentration.

Plasma perfuses all tissues of the body and cellular elements in the blood.

For practical purpose, it is assumed that the drug in plasma is in dynamic equilibrium with the tissues, the changes in plasma drug concentration will reflect corresponding changes in tissue drug concentration.

Plasma: straw coloured clear liquid 91 to 92% water, 8 to 9% of solid Serum= plasma -fibrinogen

26
Q

Plasma Level time curve

The plasma level time curve is _______________

Samples are taken at _______________

The concentration in each plasma sample is plotted on ___________________.

A

The plasma level time curve is constructed by measuring drug concentrations in plasma

Samples are taken at various time intervals after the administration of a drug product.

The concentration in each plasma sample is plotted on rectilinear graph paper against corresponding time at which the sample was withdrawn.

27
Q

Minimum effective concentration (MEC) represents ______________(for therapeutic purpose this the minimum concentration needed to be present at the receptor to produce desired effect)

A

MEC represents the minimum concentration of the drug needed to produce the pharmacological effect (for therapeutic purpose this the minimum concentration needed to be present at the receptor to produce desired effect)

28
Q

Minimum toxic concentration(MTC) reflects _________________

A

Minimum toxic concentration(MTC) reflects the minimum concentration of drug needed to need just barely produce a toxic effect

29
Q

Intensity of pharmacological response is proportional ___________, which is reflected in the observation that higher plasma drug concentrations produce___________

A

Intensity of pharmacological response is proportional to the number of drug receptors occupied, which is reflected in the observation that higher plasma drug concentrations produce a greater response, up to a maximum.

30

The measurement of drug concentration in urine is ___________________

The rate and extent of drug excretion reflects ________________

Urinary blood excretion data can also be used to calculate _______________

_____________ reflects the amount of unabsorbed drug following oral administration of a dose or may reflect the amount of drug that is secreted in bile ( and not reabsorbed) after systemic absorption.

A

The measurement of drug concentration in urine is indirect method of measuring the bioavailability.

The rate and extent of drug excretion reflects the rate and extent of systemic drug absorption.

Urinary blood excretion data can also be used to calculate PK parameters.

Measurements of drug in faeces reflects the amount of unabsorbed drug following oral administration of a dose or may reflect the amount of drug that is secreted in bile ( and not reabsorbed) after systemic absorption.

Q

Drug concentration in saliva

__________diffuses in saliva

Saliva drug levels nearly parallel the free drug rather than ________________

The saliva drug concentrations, taken after equilibrium with plasma drug concentration, generally provides____________________

A

Free drug (unbound) diffuses in saliva

Saliva drug levels nearly parallel the free drug rather than total plasma drug concentration.

The saliva drug concentrations, taken after equilibrium with plasma drug concentration, generally provides more stable indication of drug levels in the body.

36
Q

_______________is the measure of rate and extent of active ingredients or active moiety of a drug product that reaches the systemic circulation and becomes available at the site of action.

______________is the availability of the drug from a drug product (test) compared to a recognized standard (reference).

A

Bioavailability is the measure of rate and extent of active ingredients or active moiety of a drug product that reaches the systemic circulation and becomes available at the site of action.

Relative availability:

is the availability of the drug from a drug product (test) compared to a recognized standard (reference).
