calculate half life from the elimination log graph and then relate it to elimination rate constant. t (1/2) = -0.693/ke

dC/dt = -keC. rate of elimination is not constant b/c it depends on drug concentration.

|
|
if a drug has a half-life of eight hours and you want to give the drug every eight hours to achieve a maximum cumulative amount of 40 mg, what dose should you use
|
20 mg. drugs which accumulate in the body will accumulate to 2 times the amount (or concentration) achieved with a single dose when given at intervals equal to their half-life
|

|
|
what is bioavailability
|
F. math term for absorption.
|
|
how do you measure bioavailability
|
F = AUC/AUCiv;
if doses are different multiply F by dose IV/dose oral |
|
what is the F for drugs given IV
|
F = 1
|
|
what drugs have particularly poor absorption in the GI tract
|
poorly water soluble drugs
|
|
which population are bioavailability drugs usually made with
|
young people subjects but older people don't absorb drugs that well
|
|
what is Kd
|
constant for distribution.
|
|
which drugs do you use a one compartment model for
|
log graph: straight plasma concentration graph over time. drugs that immediately distribute thruout the body. these drugs have no distinct distribution phase
|
|
which drugs don't use a one compartment model
|
log graph. drugs that distribute very slowly have a distinct (nonlinear) distribution phase followed by a straight line. you have to use a 2 compartment model for these.
|
|
what is volume of distribution
|
apparent volume in which a drug appears to be dissolved. measures how much drug is taken up by tissues out of the plasma
|
|
what is the volume of distribution equation
|
Vd = Q/C. Q = dose for IV. F = bioavailability for oral.
|
|
how do you calculate volume of distribution from graphs
|
Vd = dose/Cp(o). you have to extrapolate the dose from time zero using a log graph.
|
|
what two types of elimination are there
|
first order and zero order.
arithmetic: curve, straight log: straight, curve |
|
what type of elimination are zero order
|
carrier mediated elimination only when carriers are saturated. rate of elimination is constant and independent of drug concentration.
|
|
elimination rates for first order vs zero order elimination
|
not constant (ie rate = -keC) vs constant (ie rate = delta Cp/ delta t)
|
|
what happens to zero order elimination half-life since rate of elimination is constant
|
there is no halflife
|
|
what is drug excretion and what is drug clearance
|
excretion: movement of drug from tissues and blood to external environment
clearance: plasma volume cleared of drug per time period. |
|
example drug clearance problem: time zero: plasma [c] is 10 mg/mL. time 1 hr: plasma [c] is 5 mg/mL. plasma volume is 3 L
|
clearance = fraction of drug cleared/unit time x plasma volume
OR Cl = Ke x Vd |
|
what organs do clearance
|
Cl = Clrenal + Clliver + Clother
|
|
what is the plateau principle
|
on steady administration of a drug, plasma concentration will rise fast at first then more slowly and reach a plateau (ss concentration). this only happens for first order drugs
|
|
why does the plateau principle only work for first order elimination drugs
|
you can't get a ss [c] because the plateau is reached when rate of drug in = rate out. and this doesn't work for zero-order elimination.
