1API complexation with other components in a formulation can be intentional or desirable.
- ATrue
- BFalse
2There are four main types of complexation:
1. Ion-pair formation
• [blank_start]Cation-anion interaction[blank_end]
2. Metal ion (coordination) complexes
• e.g. [blank_start]chelates[blank_end] (EDTA-metal ions, tetracycline-divalent cations)
3. [blank_start]Organic molecular[blank_end] complexes
• e.g. drug-drug, drug-excipient, excipient-excipient complexes; ion exchange
4. [blank_start]Inclusion[blank_end] complexes
• Cyclodextrin-drug complexes- ACation-anion interaction
- Bchelates
- COrganic molecular
- DInclusion
3Ion-pair formation is when a large organic anion interacts with a large organic cation to form a relatively [blank_start]insoluble complex[blank_end]. This is bad for particles in an [blank_start]IV infusion[blank_end] but good for [blank_start]sustained release[blank_end] injections.
- Ainsoluble complex
- BIV infusion
- Csustained release
4Choose the incorrect statement about metal ion complexes.
- AEDTA is a therapeutic chelator used for lead/mercury poisoning.
- BEDTA is a hexadentate ligand.
- CChelation occurs with divalent cations
- DThe drug eg tetracycline is the electron acceptor and the metal cation is the electron donor.
5Organic molecular complexes often involve complexation of [blank_start]esters[blank_end] (eg benzocaine) & [blank_start]amines[blank_end] (caffeine).
Formation of molecular complexes can affect drug [blank_start]absorption[blank_end].- Aesters
- Bethers
- Camines
- Damides
- Eabsorption
- Fdissolution
6Inclusion complexes involve cyclodextrin, a molecule with a [blank_start]hydrophobic cavity[blank_end] that can form a complex with a [blank_start]hydrophobic drug[blank_end]. Cyclodextrin complexes [blank_start]increase[blank_end] aqueous solubility; often [blank_start]linearly[blank_end], increase aqueous [blank_start]stability[blank_end], and increase drug bioavailability.
- Ahydrophobic cavity
- Bhydrophobic drug
- Cincrease
- Dlinearly
- Estability
- Fdecrease
- Ginstability
