Antagonist
|
Prevents Binding by other molecules on a receptor.
|
|
Competitive Antagonists
|
AKA: reversable
Surmountable, Both Antagonist and agonist bind to site receptor and compete |
|
Irreversible Antagonist
|
AKA: Non-competitive
Drug binds to the receptor and stays bounds. High Affinity |
|
Agonist
|
Drugs bind to and activate the receptor
|
|
Partial Agonists
|
Blocks the agonist binding site with less response than a full agonist. *Hovers Over Sight*
|
|
Reversible Antagonists
|
Readily Dissociate for receptor
|
|
Chemical Antagonists
|
**Ionically Binds**
|
|
Pharmacological Antagonist
|
Same action as an Agonist
|
|
Physiologic Antagonist
|
Opposite effect of the agonist
|
|
Agonist
|
Bind, directly or indirectly bring about the effect
|
|
Affinity
|
How well binds to the receptor
|
|
Efficacy
|
How well it causes a response
|
|
Full Agonists
|
Produces a full response at full receptor occupancy
|
|
Partial Agonists
|
Lower responses at full receptor occupancy
|
|
Adverse Drug Reactions
|
Harmful or unintended response
|
|
Calcium Channel Blocker
|
Ca2+ Blocking

|
Cytokins
|
Receptor for many polypeptide growth factors
|
|
Potency
|
The amount of drug needed to produce an effect.
Evaluated with Strength and Effectivness |
|
Solubility of Water
|
More Charged = More water soluble = Directly Proportional
|
|
Solubility of Lipids
|
More Charged = Less Lipid soluble = Inversely proportional
|
|
Aqueous Diffusion
|
Higher to Lower concentration = Fick's Law
|
|
Lipid Diffusion
|
Fick's Law =MOST IMPORTANT LIMITING FACTOR FOR DRUG PERMEATION IS THE LIPID BARRIERS
|
|
Osmosis
|
Water through semi-permeable membrane...Fick's Law
|
|
Lipophilicity
|
Ability of a chemical compound to dissolve in fats, oils, lipids and NON-Polar solvents
|
|
Therapeutic Index
|
Lethal Dose (LD50) / Effective Dose (ED50)
High value is better than low |
|
Toxicology
|
Undesirable effects of chemical on living systems
|
|
Forensics
|
Application of basic sciences to solve crimes
|
|
Pharmacology
|
Study of substances that interact with living systems through chemical processes
|
|
Pharmacodynamics
|
Effect of DRUG on the BODY
|
|
Pharmacokinetics
|
Effect of BODY on the DRUG
|
|
Bioavailability
|
Fraction of unchanged drug reaching the systemic circulation following administration
|
|
Maximum Effect
|
(EMAX) Efficacy of a drug is the maximum effect achievable
|
|
Delayed Effect
|
Changes in drug effect often delayed in relation to changes in the plasma
|
|
Cumulative Effects
|
Drug effects may be related to cumulative action
IE: Chemotherapy |
|
Immediate Effects
|
Drug effects are DIRECTLY related to plasma concentration
|
|
Receptor
|
Specific component of a cell that interacts with a drug and initiates a chain of events
|
|
GABA Receptor
|
The Chief inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS
|
|
Orphan Receptors
|
Special Drug research done to create drugs that can bind to these. Have unknown ligands
|
|
Half Life
|
Time required to change the amount of drug in the body by one-half
|
|
Absorption
|
Determined by site of administration and drug formulation
|
|
Zero Order Absorption
|
Rate of absorption is INDEPENDENT of drug remaining in gut
|
|
First Order Absorption
|
Rate is PROPORTIONAL to amount of drug in gut
|
|
Volume of Distribution
|
Amount/Concentration
|
|
Metabolism
|
Common Sense??
Based on a number of factors |
|
Elimination
|
Clearance
= Rate of Elimination / Drug concentration |
|
Two major sites of drug elimination
|
Renal and Hepatic
|
|
Steady State elimination
|
Rate of Drug Administration = Rate of Elimination
|
|
First Order Elimination
|
Rate of drug eliminated is DIRECTLY proportional to concentration of the drug
|
|
Capacity Limited Elimination
|
Once saturation has occurred, the rate of elimination fails to increase with increased drug amount.
|
|
What Quantifies Drug Safety?
|
The Therapeutic Index
|
|
Protonation
|
Combining with a proton
|
|
Effective Dose
|
ED50
50% of population manifests given effect |
|
Toxic Dose
|
TD50
50% of population manifests given toxic effect |
|
Lethal Dose
|
LD50
Dose which kills 50% of subjects |
|
Biotransformation
|
Occurs between absorption and elimination
Phase I and Phase II |
|
Phase I of Biotransformation
|
Makes a drug more polar
|
|
Phase II of Biotransformation
|
Makes a drug even more polar than Phase I or "Highly Polar"
|
|
