Exam 1 Flashcards
semiantagonism
the idea that partial agonists can act as antagonists because they can bind and reduce the Emax of the endogenous drug
inverse agonists
they bind to the receptor site preferentially in the inactivate state to lower basal activity
THESE ARE NOT ANTAGONISTS
spare receptors
the idea that only a fraction of the total receptors are needed to yield a 100% response. EC50<Kd HERE. think of insulin
therapeutic index
calculated by ld50/ed50
downregulation
a decrease in the number of receptors typically when they are overstimulated
tachyphylaxis
acute tolerance build up
competitive agonist
type of agonist that shifts curve right
noncompetetive antagonists
type of agonist that shift curve down
mdr1
the most important drug transporter
first pass effects
in oral consumption of drugs, it causes a loss of much of the dose
bioavailability
auc(drug given as tablet)/auc(drug given as IV)
loading dose equation
Co(plasma drug concentration at time 0)= X(total amount of drug in body)/[volume of distribution *patient weight]
target mediated drug disposition
the process of eliminating monoclonal antibodies(fast, mAb specific)
half time for drug elimination
T1/2=.693/first order elimination rate constant
hepatic metabolism
the dominant elimination mechanism for lipophilic drugs
phase 1 of hepatic metabolism
the oxidization of lipophilic drugs into polar molecules by cytochrome p450
phase 2 of hepatic metabolism
the addition of groups to a drug to make it more water soluble and therefore more easy to excrete in urine
renal elimination
the primary mechanism of elimination for hydrophilic drugs. filtration secretion reabsorption and excretion in the nephron
bile excretion
main elimination mechanism for large hydrophilic molecules (can be slow because some drugs may go through enterohepatic circulation)
maintenance dose
Css(steady state plasma drug concentration)= infusion rate/ CI(drug clearance total)
beta lactam antibiotics
penicillins and cephalosporins
penicillin prototype drugs
G, V and amoxicillin. cell wall moa. treats otitis media, bronchitis, and pneumonia. can cause anyphlyacti shock but its very rare
cephalosporins
proto drug= cephalexin. cell wall moa. crosses bbb. treats meningitis. can cause anaphylactic shock but rare
cell membrane antibiotics
daptomycin. cell membrane moa. interactions with statins cause muscle toxicity
ribosomal antibiotics
tetracyclines, aminoglycosides, microlides, chloramphenicol
tetracyclines
doxycycline. mechanism through 30 s ribosome. reversible. impaired by food. tooth coloration bone deposition and growth inhibition. no children or pregos. interacts negatively with dairy and antacids
aminoglycosides
tobramycin, 30s ribosome irreversible, treats eye infection, but is ototoxic(hearing/balance)
macrolides
azithromycin, 50s ribosome, treats gram positive and negative bacteria, disturbed by food, interactions inhibit CYP450
Chloramphenicol
proto drug same, 50 s reversible, causes bone marrow bad and gray baby syndrome. interactions inhibit cyp 450
folic acid antibiotics (antimetabolites)
sulfonamides
sulfonamides(trimethoprim)
synergistic with trimethoprim, sulfamethizole, inhibit folate synthesis, cause photosensitivity and stevens johnson syndrome

ergosterol synthesis antifungals
Imidazoles: ketoconazole, moa disrupts ergosterol synthesis by binding to fungal cyt p450, fungistatic
