Q

how does body composition affect maternal mothers

A
  1. increases body fat
  2. increases blood volume
    - hydro and lipophilic drugs increase this

Q

what factors affect placental drug transfer and effects on the fetus

A
  1. properties of medication
  2. rate of medication placental diffusion
  3. amount of medication reaching the fetus
  4. duration of medication exposure
  5. distribution properties of medication in fetal tissue
  6. stage of fetal development at exposure
  7. effects of medications used in combination
20
Q

What does not cross the placenta

A
  • insulin

- heparin

21
Q

what transporters take drug away from the fetus

A
  1. Pgp
  2. BCRP
  3. MRP3
22
Q

how does drug cross the placenta

A
  • passive diffusion
  • facilitated transport
  • active transport
23
Q

how does protein binding affect the fetus

A
  1. increased fetal albumin

2. decreased medication affinity compared to mother

24
Q

what medication properties should be considered in placental pk

A
  1. lipophilicity
  2. ionization
  3. molecular weight
  4. protein binding (do not cross the placenta)
25
Q

what acts as a first pass metabolic step

A

placenta

26
Q

where does drug travel to after the placenta

A

liver and then it may recirculate through the liver prior to exiting through placenta
