Q

HALF LIFE

A

TIME for blood level to reach HALF of its administered level

18
Q

HOMOGLOBIN

A

IRON containing COMPOUND for TRANSPORTATION and DELIVERY

19
Q

LOADING DOSE

A

describes the INITIAL dose of AT LEAST the amount required for THERAPEUTIC EFFECTIVENESS

20
Q

MAINTENANCE DOSE

A

the DOSE necessary to MAINTAIN a CONSTANT THERAPEUTIC PLASMA LEVEL

21
Q

MECHANISM OF ACTION

A

the BIOCHEMICAL and PHYSIOLOGICAL EVENTS that occur WHEN SUBSTANCE REACHES THE TARGET TISSUE

22
Q

METABOLISM

A

the SUM of ALL PHYSICAL and CHEMICAL CHANGES in THE BODY

23
Q

MINIMUM EFFECTIVE CONCENTRATION

A

MINIMUM AMOUNT needed in BLOOD for DESIRED THERAPEUTIC EFFECT to occur

24
Q

ONSET OF ACTION

A

TIME between ADMINISTRATION and FIRST SIGN OF ONSET

chem/phys properties & ROA are influencers

25
PASSIVE TRANSPORT
MECHANISM of TRASPORT - DOESNT require energy to move a substance
26
pH
EXPRESSION of ACIDITY or ALKALINITY | logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration/1
27
PHARMACODYNAMICS
the STUDY of ACTION | of substances on the body
28
PHARMACOKINETICS
the STUDY of MOVEMENT of medications from IN to OUT
29
SOLUBILITY
the TENDENCY it has to DISSOLVE
30
THERAPEUTIC INDEX
is a SAFETY PROFILE determined by calculating the DIFFERENCE between THERAPEUTIC THRESHOLD and TOXIC LEVEL
31
THERAPEUTIC THRESHOLD
same as MINIMUM EFFECTIVE CONCENTRATION
32
TOXIC LEVEL
PLASMA LEVEL at which SEVERE ADVERSE REACTIONS or expected or likely
