  1. 1define pharmacokineticswhat the body does to the drug
  2. 2pharmacodynamicswhat the drug does to the body
  3. 34 main criteria of ADME(liberation)
    absorption
    distribution
    metabolism
    excretion
  4. 4liberationthe process of release of a drug from the pharmaceutical formulation
  5. 5absorptionprocess of substance entering the blood circulation
  6. 6distributiondispersion of substance through fluids/tissues of the body
  7. 7metabolismrecognition by organism that a foreign substance is present and irreversible transformation of parent compounds into daughter metabolites
  8. 8excretionremoval of the substance from the body
  9. 9oral route advantages and disadvantagesa - Convenient
    d - First-pass effect, many variables and barriers.
  10. 10Sublingual adv and disa - no first pass effect
    d - Inconvenient, small dose limit, taste
  11. 11inhalationa - fast, rapid delivery to blood
    d - Requires special properites of drug (e.g. atomised, vapourised)
  12. 12topicala - Convenient, localised
    d - Only local
  13. 13transdermala - Prolonged release
    d - Skin very effective barrier
  14. 14intramusculara - Rapid for aqueous, slow for oil
    d - Painful, requires trained personnel
  15. 15intravenousa - direct, total dose, rapid
    d - Requires professional, infection risk, rapid response
  16. 16how does bioavailability differ between iv and oral doese?- iv gives 100% bioavailability
    - oral is much lower
  17. 17define bioavailabilityFraction of unchanged drug that reaches the systemic circulation
  18. 18what are the 4 ways in which small molecules can cross cell membranes1) Diffusing directly through the lipid
    -Lipid solubility highly important - need to be uncharged and lipophilic
    2) Diffusing through aqueous pores
    - More likely important for diffusion of gases
    3) Transmembrane carrier protein
    e.g. solute carriers - drugs can hijack these
    4) Pinocytosis
    – Mostly macromolecules, not drugs
  19. 19what is the solubility of ionised drugs?- low lipid solubility
  20. 20what are the main drug properties that affect absorption ?- lipophilicity
    - ionisation
  21. 21list some factors that affect distribution- Degree of drug ionisation
    - Lipid solubility
    - pH of compartments
    - Cardiac output and blood flow
    - Capillary permeability
    - Plasma protein binding
  22. 22what do phosphonate groups have a high affinity for?calcium
  23. 23what drugs are quickly distributed to the skeleton?- bisphosphonates due to phosphonate having high affinity for calcium
  24. 24name some bisphosphonatesOral - alendronate – Daily/weekly
    IV- zoledronate – Yearly
  25. 25what do drugs have to be free to do?- to distribute widely or bind to its receptor
  26. 26what are the plasma proteins that drugs can bind to?– Albumin
    – α-1 acid glycoprotein
    – Lipoproteins
    – Globulins
  27. 27what can cause big increases in free drug conc?- competition fro binding sites on albumin /plasma proteins
  28. 28how low can the percentage of unbound drug be?as low as 1%
  29. 29why is taking aspirin with warfarin dangerous?-98% of warfarin is bound to albumin
    - aspirin has a high affinity for albumin
    - aspirin fights for binding sites and displaces some of the warfarin = creating or unbound warfarin = more of a pharmacological effect on the patient
  30. 30why does unbound warfarin have to be kept within a tight limit?too much unbound warfarin will mean the blood with be too thin
    not enough and the blood will clot
  31. 31how is body water distributed?Body water is distributed in to four main compartments
    - specialist compartments exist and factors such as perfusion influence distribution
  32. 32what does the degree of distribution between these compartment depend on ?tissue and drug dependent factors
  33. 33how can the side effects of some drugs be minimised?y limiting their distribution via the route of administration
  34. 34describe first stage of metabolismPhase I metabolism
    • Generally oxidation, reduction or hydrolysis – Introduce/reveal a reactive chemical group
    – “Functionalisation”
    • Products often more reactive
  35. 35stage 2 metabolismPhase II metabolism
    • Synthetic, conjugative reactions
    • Hydrophilic, inactive compounds generated (usually)
    - makes drug more dissolvable in water- excreted better by kidneys
  36. 36which stage produces reactive products1
  37. 37which stage produces hydrophilic products2
  38. 38what is the function of cytochrome P450 enzymes?Throughout the body, extensively in the liver
    • Biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids and bile acids
    • Metabolism of endogenous and exogenous substrates
  39. 39paracetamols small therapeutic windowthe toxic metabolites are combined with glutathione which are then conjugated and excreted
    but when glutathione is delepletd the toxic metabolites combine with hepatic enzymes and this leads to toxicity
  40. 40why can you not take phenobarbital land warfarin together?phenobarbital increases expression of CYP450s
    warfarin is metabolised by CYP450s
    =reduction in effectiveness of warfarin
  41. 41grapefruit juice and statins- statins metabolised by CYP3A$
    - grapefruit juice blocks this enzyme
    = statins not metabolised
  42. 42what do different routes of metabolism allow?allow for patient- specific choices to be made
    – E.g. Genetic variability, disease state, other treatments
  43. 43what is the aim of drug metabolites?that they can be excreted
  44. 44what are the 2 things metabolites can be?active or toxic
  45. 45metabolic enzymes- Genetic variability in metabolic enzymes occurs,
    - expression of metabolic enzymes can be induced and/or inhibited
    - Competition for metabolic enzymes occurs and metabolic pathways can be saturated
  46. 46how can metabolism affect drugs?their bioavailability
  47. 47how are drugs eliminated?- either unchanged or as metabolites
  48. 48which drugs are eliminated more readily?hydrophilic rather than lipophilic
  49. 49list some possible sources of excretion• Breath
    • Urine
    • Saliva
    • Perspiration
    • Hair
    • Feces
    • Milk
    • Bile
  50. 50what is the important organ in elimination of drugs?kidneys
  51. 51what is the therapeutic window?a ratio between minimum effective concentrations (MEC) to the minimum toxic concentration (MTC)
  52. 52onset of actiontime between taking drug and reaching minimum effective concentration
  53. 53duration of actiontime spent above ineffective zone
  54. 54peak plasma concentration and time to peak plasma concentrationCmax (peak of the graph) horizontal line
    Tmax (vertical line) down from Cmax
  55. 55absorption half lifeamount of time it takes to absorb half the peak concentration of drug
    - half cmax
  56. 56effect of absorption half lifepeak plasma conc of drug decreases a step absorption like increases
    a longer half life = longer duration of action, and a longer onset of action
  57. 57plasma clearance (elimination) half lifego to Cmax, go to half way point,
    then calculate how long it take to get from Cmax to that half way point.
    = amount of time it takes to elimination half the Cmax.
  58. 58repeated dosesnot waiting required time in between does = summation of drug conc, can push yourself towards the probability of getting to the toxic conc
  59. 59describe the plasma drug concentration during IV infusionPlasma concentration increases during infusion until rate of input equals rate of output
    - there is a plateau - called a steady state Css
  60. 60factors that can affect pharmacokinetic parameters- age
    -sex
    - pregnancy
    - body weight
    -genetic variability
    - diet
    -disease
    -other medications
    - ethnicity
  61. 61what are the 5 body fluid compartments?- plasma water5%
    - interstitial water16%
    - fat 20 %
    - intracellular water 35%
    - transcellular water 2%
  62. 62what 4 things change movement between the 5 body compartments?• Permeability across tissue barriers
    • Binding within compartments
    • pH partition
    • Fat:water partition
