The degree or percentage to which a drug is absorbed and reaches circulation is called?

Bioavaliability

Another name for generic drug name

Non-Proproetary Name

Trade name or brand name of drug

Proprietary name

What does AU stand for?

Both Ears

The study of absorption, blood levels, distribution, biotransformation, and exertion of drugs

Pharmacokinetics

What is a onetime higher dose of a drug that gets drug concentration up to therapeutic range in a short period of time

Loading Dose

Dose of drug that keeps drug at therapeutic range

Maintenance dose


Class of drug that has highest potential for abuse? (C1-CV)

CI

What does parenteral drug administration mean?

Drug routes apart from the GI tract

Definition of Passive Diffusion

Random movement of drug from an area of high concentration to area of low concentration



Definition of Facilitated Diffusion

Movement of molecules through membrane using a carrier protein and no energy is expended

Definition of Active transport

movement of molecules across membrane from low to high concentration using a carrier protein where ATP is expended from

Chemical alteration of drug molecules into metabolites by body cells or metabolism of drug

Biotransformation

Primary site of biotransformation in the body

Liver

Detoxifying enzyme found in hepatocytes

Cytochrome P450

4 main pathways by which drugs undergo biotransformation

1. Oxidation- loss electrons


2. Reduction- gain electrons


3. Hydrolysis - water molecules cause drug split


4. Conjugation -make drug more soluble add glucaronic acid

Tendency of a drug to move from area of high concentration to area of low means it is following the..

Concentration gradient

Water loving drugs

Hydrophilic (usually ionized)

Fat loving drugs

Lipophilic ( non ionized)

Defintion ofIonized vs. nonionized

Charged vs. uncharged

When a drug molecule changes from ionized to nonionized form as it moves to another part of the body it is called..

Ion trapping

What happens when acidic drugs are in an alkaline environment?


vs.


What happens when acid drugs are in an acid environment?



They become ionized/charged/hydrophilic


They become nonionized/uncharged/lipophilic

When drugs that pass through the intestinal lumen to the liver via the portal vein are then metabolized and excreted thereby reducing he amount of active drug in the system. This is called what?

First Pass Effect

Ratio of ionized drug to nonionized drug symbol

pKa

Gill cells surround the capillaries of the brain and spinal cord so there are no fenestrations. Only the most lipophilic drug can enter this defense system called what?

The blood-brain barrier

Areas of the body with similar defense to the blood brain barrier (3)

1. Prostate gland


2. Globe of the eye


3. Some extent the placenta

Type of dog breed that is an exception to the blood-brain barrier

Collie and collie types


"white feet don't treat"

Drug that binds to a cell receptor and cause actoion are called?

Agonist

Drugs that inhibit or block the response of a cell to its receptor are called?

Antagonists

Competes with agonist for same receptor site can be overcome with a high does of an antagonist. This action is called?

Competitive antagonisms


reversible

Acts as a roadblock to receptor site because it binds to a site different from the agonist and mechanically changes the agonists receptor. This action is called what?

Non-competitive antagonism


irreversible

has some effect on the agonist at lesser degree

partial agonist/antagonist

The strength of binding between a receptor and a drug

Affinity

Drug dose that produces desired effect with minimal or no signs of toxicity

Therapeutic index (LD/ED)


LD-lethal dose ED-effective dose

Point ay which drug accumulation and elimination are equal

Steady state

Why would an oral deworming drug be hydrophilic?

Because the need to stay in the gut to work and no be absorbed by the lumen

Definition of pinocytosis / phagocytosis

cell drinking / cell eating

If you want a drug to be absorbed in the GI tract it needs to be what?

Lipophilic


(PO drugs usually lipophilic)

SQ and IM drugs are usually hydo or lipophilic?

hydrophilic

What parts of the kidney are involved in drug elimination?

Glomerular filtration, Tubular reabsorption. Tubular secretion

Hydrophilic drugs are excreted into bile are eliminated how?

In the feces

Are weak acids excreted better in acid or basic urine?


Are weak bases excreted better in acidic or basic urine?

Weak acid = basic urine


Weak base = acidic urine



What is the period of time after a drug is administered during which an animal cannot be send to slaughter and products must be discarded due to drug residues?

Withdrawal time

What is the time required for the amount of drug in a body to be reduced by half of its original level?

half-life

What are 2 major routes of drug exertion?

1. Kidney- urine


2. Liver, bile- feces

What are the receptors for the sympathetic nervous system?

Alpha 1 & 2


Beta 1 & 2



What are the receptors for the parasympathetic system?

Nicotinic and Muscarinic

The sympathetic nervous system can be referred to as?

Fight or flight system



The parasympathetic nervous system can be referred to as?

Rest and Restore system

What mimics effects of the sympathetic nervous system (3 things)

1. sympathomimetic drugs


2. parasympatholytic drugs
