Metabolic Proccesses (phase I And Phase II) Flashcards
What does phase 1 metabolic processes include
Reduction - carbonyl compounds, nitrogen compounds, sulfoxides
Hydrolysis - esters and amides, epoxides
Decarboxylation - amine acids
Explain the metabolic reduction in carbonyl compounds
Explain metabolic reduction of nitro compound
Explain metabolic reduction of sulfoxides
Explain hydrolysis
Explain methylation
Most of the Phase 2 are what reactions ?
Conjugated reaction catalyzed by transferases enzymes resulting in inactive conjugate
Which conjugates are the most common
Glucuronic acid
How is glucuronic acid attached to the drug
How is the resulting conjugate excreted
What are the two types of phase II reactions
Removal
Inactivation
Explain removal
Why is the most common conjugative pathway in drug metabolism is Glucuronidation
What is the Glucuronidation products
Explain drug-drug interaction with examples
