Ex. 2 Practice Questions Flashcards
L1: T/F: Higher dose is expected to show greater drug accumulation (i.e. higher accumulation index)
False - greater not dose dependent
L1: When you switch dosage regimen from 10mg q12h to 10mg 24h, what happens to: Fluctuation?
Goes up
L1: When you switch dosage regimen from 10mg q12h to 10mg 24h, what happens to:
Average CSS?
Lower
Because CSSave is (dose/T)/CL
L1: When you switch dosage regimen from 10mg q12h to 10mg 24h, what happens to:
TSS
Same
L1: When you switch dosage regimen from 10mg q12h to 10mg 24h, what happens to: Accumulation index?
Lower
L3: “A” (close to top) is called the distribution phase
True
L3: “B” (mid-line) is called the elimination phase
True
L3: The data show a drug following a one-compartment model (slight curve at beginning, then linear throughout)
False - two compartment
L3: This happens (bi-phasic) because drug distribution to/from tissue is slow
True
L4: After IV admin, Drug A and Drug B show MRT values of 1 and 5 hr respectively. Which drug is eliminated faster?
- A
- B
- Not enough info given
Drug A
MRT is mean residence time; lower time = faster elimination
L4: After 1 gram of drug C is admin intravenously, the following concentration time profile is obtained:
(Straight line, no curve)
T/F
1: AUC can be estimated
2. AUMC can be estimated
3. MRT can be estimated
4. CL can be estimated
5. Vdss can be estimated
- True
- True
- True
- True
- True
L4: After 1 gram of drug C is admin intravenously, the following concentration time profile is obtained:
(Curvy line)
T/F
1: AUC can be estimated
2. AUMC can be estimated
3. MRT can be estimated
4. CL can be estimated
5. Vdss can be estimated
- True
- True
- True
- True
- True
L5: What is rate-limiting step that determines metabolite amount in the body?
Kf = 0.0.5
K(m) = 1.2
Kf = 0.05 formation of metabolite (slower step)
L5: What is the apparent t/12 of parent drug from the body?
Kf = 0.05
k(m) = 1.2
T1/2 = 0.693/k
0.693/0.05 = 14 hr
parent drug = Kf
L5: What is the apparent t1/2 of metabolite from the body after administration of the parent drug?
Kf = 0.05
k(m) = 1.2
0.693/k
0.693/0.05hr
