test 2 extra Flashcards
pharmacokinetics
how meds travel through the body, and what it does
factors that affect distribution
circulation, the permeability of cell membrane, and plasma protein binding connects to bond and protein gets less worth
high therapeutic
highly unlikely to be toxic
low therapeutic
moderate the patient
peak levels
consider the route very high
trough
must get a blood level before a dose
onset
time at which there is a therapeutic response to meds
duration
full therapeutic response
peak level
length of therapeutic response
pharmacodynamics
interacts to meds
agonist
binds to or mimics receptors perfectly
antagonist
blocks the usual receptors
partial agonist
have partial activity can act as an agonist to others
topical
painless, limited, on skin
eyes
keep sterile,
