Q

CKD effect on Absorption

A

-no good data to suggest changes
-D-xylose absorption slowed
-likely reduced absorption and gastric emptying due to neuropathy
-reduced bioavailability due to gut wall edema, furosemide
-reduced due to drug interactions
-maybe reduced due to changes inc gas pH

CkD effect on distrivution

A

Vss=Vp + VT (fu/fu,t)

Q

Phenytoin (anti-seizure)

A

-CKD alters relationship between total [DPH] and therapeutic and toxic effects
-narrow therapeutic index drug w non-linear or capacity limited PK
<10 mcg/mL

22
Q

Phenytoin healthy vs CKD

A

-normal fu=0.08
-CKD fu=0.16
-Cl int is same

23
Q

Clinical considerations for protein binding

A

-measure of unbound concentrations are desired in CKD pt
-highly protein bound drugs
-some have sut point of fu<0.2
-narrow therapeutic index drugs
-marked variation in fu

24
Q

CKD effect on elimination and metabolism

A

-ClT = ClR + ClNR +Cl…
-reduction in ClR obv
-what happens to ClNR?
-most drugs are metabolized prior to excretion
-acute vs chronic
-hepatic and non-hepatic metabolism may be altered
-complex

25
Q

As renal impairment increases, enzyme function

A

decreases

26
Q

Metabolism in CKD

A

-CYP3A allegedly lower
-reduced Cl of CYP3A substrates
-likely reduction in ClNR in numerous enzymes

-OATP, P-glycoprotein reduced
-Fexofenadine

28
Q

Metabolism and transport bottome line

A

-impact of given drug is difficult to guess
-no strategy for making predictions even in the same drug class
