what does the initial phase of distribution dynamics reflect?
|
cardiac output and regional blood flow
|
|
what does the second phase of distribution dynamics reflect?
|
rate of uptake by tissue
|
|
apparent volume of distribution?
|
an index of how widely or extensively the drug is distributed to the tissues of the body compared with the plasma
|
|
is protein bound drug able to cross biological barriers?
|
no, only free drug can pass through biological barriers
|
|
what is included in sample taken to determine Vd?
|
plasma which includes free drug and albumin-bound drug
|
|
what is the association between Vd and T1/2?
|
the greater Vd = longer half life because more widely distributed so takes body longer to clear the drug
|
|
does acid or base tend to have a higher Vd?
|
base
|
|
how does protein binding to the drug affect the maximal intensity of action?
|
binding to protein decreases the maximal intensity of action
|
|
how does protein binding to the drug affect the elimination of the drug?
|
only free drug is available for elimination
|
|
what is consequence of sulfonamides in newborns?
|
replace bilirubin and excess bilirubin goes to brain where it is toxic
|
|
what is displacement drug interaction?
|
competition between drugs for albumin binding
|
|
what can act as drug reservoirs?
|
plasma proteins, cellular reservoirs, fat, bone, transcellular
|
|
what is required for stored drug to prolong the effects of the drug?
|
if stored drug is in equilibrium with that in plasma and is released as plasma concentration declines, a concentration of the drug in plasma and at its site of action is sustained
|
|
what is action of fat in drug reservoir and redistribution?
|
can prolong drug action or terminate drug action
|
|
what principle underlies redistribution?
|
highly perfused organs are reached most quickly, then reach less perfused organs (aka redistributed)
