Maintenance dose always depends on
CL
Css=
Ro/CL
Ave Css with conronic dosing always =
(Dose*F*S/(t))/(CL)
Maintenance dose=
Css*CL*(t)
Maintanace dsoe are also useful for Sustained release formulation=
Css*Cl*t
When the 1/2 life is 3 times greater than or equal to tau, then
Css=Ro/Cl Cmax Min Cmin and Css are all the same
Always pick a frequency around
1/2 life
How can a dose regimen be developed
by targeting Cmax and Cmin
How do you calculate the dosage interval
t= ln(Cmax/Cmin)/K
How do you determine what dose do be given
CmaxSS=dose/V/(1-e-kt)
What are 2 ways to calculate the loading dose
1. Loading dose= maintance dose/(1-e-kt)
2. Loading dose= Css X Vol
First dose Cmax =
Dose(F)(S)/V
SSCmax=
Cmax/(1-e-kt)
When we use first dose PK to predict SS PK we assume
constant linear PK,
Most often this is true, expect for
auto-induction metabolism or saturable elimination
Examples where constant linear PK does not work
carbamezepine
Not all patients have same PK--what factors affect CL and V
age, lean body weight, obesity, genetics, administered drugs, genetics
Volume tells us the "size of the tank" and it influences that time it takes
to FILL the tank, and the time it takes to empty the tank
Volume does NOT influence what
AUC and Css
Volume only inlfuences the SHAPE of the PK profile b/c
it influences the TIME it takes to fill the tank and EMPTY The tank
CL tells us what
maintence dose will KEEP the tank full thus AUC and Css
CL and Volume both affects
Ke ,and half life
CL only affects
CSS, AUC and maintenece dose
Volume only effects
Loading dose (Conc Css desired * Volume
CL is the funadmental DRUG removal process, and determinant of CSS and AUC, CL is most important for
DOSE changes
How does Renal CL in elderly change
CL decreases in elderly
If CL decreases in elderly, then what changes
1/2 Life
AUC
Css
Mainence dose
CL does not affect
Volume or loading dose
Liver function changes with aging as less predictable
YES
What happens to PHase I and Phase II enzymes in elderly
Phase 1 enzymes activity decreases
Phase II realtively preserved
What happens to the EXTENT of absroption in the elderly for drugs that undergo HIGH first-pass extraction
MAY BE HIGHER
The elederly may have increases drug sensititvty to what drugs
benzodiazepines, warfarin, oral hypoglycemics, and anticholinergic drugs
Why is the RATE of absroption either slower or smae in elderly
the % of body weight lean muscle mass goes DOWN, and % fat does up so VD can icnrease or decrease
Drugs taht distrbutes in lean muscle in elderly may have
LOWER volume distribution
If the drug distrubtes into fat in the elderly than what
VD may increase
What changes are predictable in the elderly
CL-slow in elderly espically for renall eliminated drugs
What changes are NOT predictable in elderly
Hepatic CL, absroption and Volume distribution less predictable
Lean body weight is usally
postivielty correlated with CL as lean weight increases so does CL, and so does Volume
The physiological basis is the liver/kideny are proptionally sized to the LEAN mass of the person, example
large LEAN adult have 2lbs kidney
small LEAN adult 1 lbs kdineys
What is the difference in maintenace doses between a pt with higer lean body weight, compared to lower lean body weight
Higher lean body weight needs higher dose b/c has faster clearnace
Lean body weight positively correclates with BOTH
CL and Volume
larger lean weight, larger the Volume and CL
Obesity is generally defined as >30%, and a BMI >
30 is defined as obses
Morbid obesity is defined as
195% of ideal body weight (2x ideal body weieght
Organ mass slight increase in obesity, but NOT proprtional to weight, how is renal clearnace affected
Increased
GFR increase
Tubular secretion increases
Blood flow same
Reabsroption decrease
--overal renal clearnace increases
The liver can be inflamed with fat so heapatic CL can be
increased or decreases
What is changes in phase I of obestity in liver
CYP2E! is increase and 3A is decreases
What is changes of Phase II in obesity
Increases sulfation and increased glucuronidation
Is absoprtion rate changed in obesity
NO
Overall how is volume affected in obesity
VOLUME Is increase in obesity
Drugs that distribute into fat may have
much higher Volume in obesity (not universal cyclosporine)
Why do drugs that distrubte into extraceullar water may also have increased Volume b/c
there is genrally more extraceullar water in obesity
Given that obese pts have a 3 fold large Volume what PK parameters would be changed
T-1/2
Cmax Bolus (Co)
Loading dose
TIME to reach SS increased in obese
Which is more pronounch in obesity CL or Volume
Volume
B/c Volume is more pronouched in Obesity, what are need for changes in
loading doses and TIME to reach SS
Some PK profiles have 2 phases called
Alpha phase
Beta Phase
What is the alpha phase AKA
distriubtion phase
What happens during the alpha phase
STEEP DECLINE drug transfer from the vasculature into the tissue until equilibrium is reached
What is the beta phase AKA
terminal decline distribution is at equilibrium
The beta phase is analaougs to
one-compartment model
We can use 1 comparemtne model except for drugs where significant elimination occurs during
the dsitrubiton phase (methoorexate, lidocain, lithium
When do we obtain blood samples in 2 compartment drugs
AFTER disbution
What is Vi
is the inital volume immediately after distribution in smaller compartment and reaches rapid equilibrium
Once equilibrium is reqch in Vi, then it distrbutes to Vt, which is
is the tissue volume into which the drug distrubtes during the alpha phase
What is the calculation for Loading dose in 2 compartment model
Vi+Vt
If the entiere loading dose is given during the Vi, what does this mean
conc will be very HIGH
If the entire loading dose is given during VI, conc will be very high this is bad for some drugs werhe the
"effect side is in the VI tissue
Digoxin is a 2 comparmen t drug where its effect site is the in tissue Vt, how can we administer the loading dose
can be given during VI, but will be very high but does not cause toxicity b/c the conc has not eqiulbrated with the tissues
Lidocaine is a 2 compartment drugs its effect site is in the Vi, how can we adminsiter the loading dose
loadin dose will beed to be delivered SLOWLY or in small increments to ALLOW for distribution so levels will not get to high in Vi
Drugs usually bind to proteins
reversibly
Reversible drug-protein binding implies that the forces that lead to the binding are
hydrogen bonding or van der Wasl forces
What are 2 main plasma proteins
Albumin and A1 Acid glycoprotein
Where are albumin and Alpha 1 acid glycoprotein synthesized
by the liver
What does Albumin maintain in the blood
osmotic pressure of the blood
What does albumin transport
endogenous and exogenous substances (FFAs, biliruin, hormones, typrophan)
What is most common plasma protein for acidic drug binding
Albumin
Clinically yo may encoutner conditions with albumin
the REDUCE albumin, and reduced DRUG binding (seen in End stage renal and liver disease)
Alpha 1 Acid Glycoprotien always transport substance in the blood but binds
pirmarily basic drugs
A1 Acid glycoprtoein is also an acute-phase reactant that
increases with inflammation and trauma by 5x
A1 Acid Glycoproin is NOT a common clinial lab like albumin, but clinically yo may encounter conditioants that
increase AAH conc with increase binding
Both endounesou and exogenous compounds can also bind to RBC's or
erthrocytes
Cyclosporine therapetic range for serum/plasma vs whole blood
serum plasma 50-125ng/ml
whole bood 150-400
Total plasma concenterations are measured clinicaly which is
bound drug PLUS free drug
The free plasma conc are considered
pharamcologically acid
Fraction unbound (FU)=
unbound/(total)
Total conc are indreict measure of free conc. when do we WORRY about varaiblity in protein binding
Narrow Therapetic range
drug is highly protein bound
Why dont we worry about protein binding if drug has WIDE therapeutic index
b/c small to moderate varailbity in FU will not result in bid changes to cause toxicity or loss of effect
Why dont we worry about small to moderate protein binding if FU is already
big or >30%
IN GENERAL If there is recued binding the TOTAL conc will decrease, but
FREE conc will remain the same
Typically with reduced bidning the total conc decreases, and fraction unbound INCREASES this is true for
Low E drugs and High E drugs given ORALLY
CL of low E and High E drugs given PO are rate limited by
CLint X Fu,
so as fu so do clearance
High E drugs given IV are ratelimited by
BLOW flow to liver only
For Low extraction drugs IV the higher the fraction unbound, the higer
the CLearnace, and the higher the clearance the lower the Css(total) so Css unbound remains the same
For Low extraction drugs ORAL the higer the FU the higher
the CL, and the HIGHER the CL, the Lower the Total conc of drug so Fraction unbound remains the same
As you increase Fraction unbound you Increase Cl, so what happens to Css (total)
decreases---do the Css unbound remains the same
ONLY exception to rule is HIGH extraction DRUGS IV, b.c
CL is dependent on blood flow so Css (total) stays the same, but Css fraction unbound increases
What are factors that increase VOLUME
Decrease plasma protein binding
Increased tissue bidnign
Large tissue mass
What are factors that decrease VOLUME
Increased plasma protein binding
Decreases tissue binding
Small tissue mass
Renal failure may decrease digoxin binding in tissue what would this do to digoxin loading loas
Decreased Vd
so Decrease Loading dose
Low extraction ratio drugs E<30% are rate liminted by
FU X Clint
High extraction ratio drug >70 are rate limited by
Blood flow, so a change in FU will not affect CL
Low extraction druat have a
HIGH F or bioavailability
F (bioavailability is =
Q/ (CLint * fu)
Unbound conc are only signifgant High Protein bound drugs with Narrow therapetic ranges and
have high extraction ratio and IV
