Pharm Exam 1 Drugs to Know Flashcards
Details to know for Ethanol (6)
- Zero order elimination
- Inducer of CYP450 activity
- Act on GABA receptors to increase Cl- flow into the cell (example of synergism)
- Example of pharmacokinetic tolerance- response decreases because the enzymes that metabolize the drug are induced; drug levels change
- Example of synergism- depression of the CNS produced by diazepam + ethanol; act on GABA receptor but at different sites
- Ethanol induces acetaminophen metabolism through CYP2E1
