Q

PD Int - enhancing synergism

A

total effect greater than sum of effects of each separately - direct: same direction but diff mech of action - Penicillin and Kanamycin,
-indirect:L one drug suppresses antagonist action of the other - sympatholytics with insulin (hypoglycemia)

Q

Antagonism

A

opposing actions, one drug will be abolished by second drug : chemical (neutralizing like aspirin and sodium bicarbonate), physiologic (different receptors and effects cancelled, sympathetics &parasymp), pharmacologic (antagonist stops agonist from acting on receptors)

16
Q

Carcinogenic

A

aminophenazone, cimetidin

17
Q

Idiosyncratic adverse events

A

not dose related, occur because of genetic predisposition, abnormal response of body: decrease in g6p and high risk of severe hemolysis after Nitrofurantoine, Furazolidone, Doxorubicine, Nalidixic acid, Phenacetin.

18
Q

Immunoallergic adverse events

A

are not dose related

19
Q

Type I (anaphylactoid)

A

immediate, coupling of antigen to IGE from surface of mastocytes and basophilic cells causing release of histamine, kinine, leukotriene, prostaglandin, most severe is anaphylactic shock

20
Q

type II (cytotoxic)

A

reaction between antibody between IGG and IGM Andy cells that are antigenic because of fixing of drug, result in blood cell lysis

21
Q

Type II examples

A

hemolytic anemia (penicillins, rifampicin), granulocytopenia(aminophenazone), thrombocytopenia (quinidine, sulfamides, thiazidine, diuretics)

22
Q

Type III (immune complex)

A

complex between antigen and IGG and IGM will be fixed on small vessels or basal membranes, causing inflammatory reactions

23
Q

Type III examples

A

serum sickness (sulfonamides, penicillins, antiepileptics, antithyroidians), quince edema, rash (aspirin, penicillins), vascularitis, polymorphorphic edema, Steven Johnson erythema

24
Q

Type IV (cell mediated)

A

delayed reaction, sensitized T cells release lymphokines producing inflammation and edema

25
Q

Type IV example

A

contact dermatitis after local ads of neomycin or kanamycin

26
Q

Tolerance type adverse effects

A

Tachyphylaxis, mitridiasm, dependence

27
Q

Tachiphylaxis (acute tolerance)

A

decrease effect of intensity, suddenly after repeated administrations, because of chemical mediator depletion or prolonged receptor blockage :sympathomimetics

28
Q

Mitridatism

A

organism tolerates doses that otherwise induces nociceptive effects after first admin. : atropine, arsenic, nicotine

29
Q

Dependence (tolerance by repeated admin.)

A

psychological, physical, tolerance, psychotoxicity

30
Q

Psychological dependence

A

psychological need to use a drug in order to obtain an affective effect

31
Q

Physical dependence

A

need to continue admin to prevent symptoms (abstinence syndrome):anxiety, apathy, insomnia, anorexia, nausea vomit, diarrhea, sweating, lacrimtion, diffuse pain, CV rest, blood pr osc

32
Q

Tolerance

A

progressive diminution of effect after repeated admin, necessity to increase dose to obtain desired effect

33
Q

Psychotoxicity

A

morphine, heroin, cocaine, opium, LSD
