What are the Phase I reactions in drug metabolism? |
HOR Hydrolysis Oxidation Reduction
(with cytochrome 450) |
|
|
What characteristics do phase I metabolites have? |
Slightly polar Water soluble Active |
|
|
What goes first? Phase I or II? |
they can go in EITHER order or EITHER OR |
|
|
What are the phase II reactions in drug metabolism? |
GAS Glucuronidation Acetylation Sulfation Methylation (all conjugation reactions) |
Geriatric patients have GAS |
|
What phase do geriatric patients lose in drug metabolism? |
Both, but they can lose phase I first. |
|
|
What characteristics do phase II metabolites have? |
Very polar Inactive (Renally excreted) |
|
|
People who are slow acetylators... |
Have greater side effects from certain drugs because their is a decreased metabolism. BUILT-UP substance, higher risk of toxicity. |
|
|
What cytochrome P450 metabolizes 50% of all drug reactions? |
CYP3A4 |
|
|
If you administer 2 drugs that are metabolized by the same cytochrome P450, what might happen? |
longer for both drugs to be inactivated, increased plasma levels or prolonged action of one or both drugs |
|
|
What substances inhibit cytochrome p450? |
CRACK AMIGOS: Cimentidine, Ritonavir, Amiodarone, Ciprofloxacin, Ketoconazole, Acute alcohol use, Macrolides, Isoniazid, Grapefuit juice, Omeprazol, Sulfonamides. |
CRACK AMIGOS: inhibit yourself from it ;) |
|
What substances induce cytochrome p450? |

Griseofulvin, Carbamazepin, Phenytoin, Barbituates, Rifampin, St. Johns wort, Chronic alcoholism |
Guinness, Coronas and PBRs induce chronic alcoholism |
|
What are the 2 key enzymes responsible in ethanol metabolism? |
Ethahol->Alchohol dehydrogenase->Acetaldehyde->Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase->Acetate
|
|
|
What drug inhibits the enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase? |
Fomepizole - It can be used in intoxication with methanol and ethylene glycol Ethanol - Competes for attention from enzyme |
|
|
What SE does methanol intoxication produce? |
Formaldehyde, the toxic metabolite, causes SE of acidosis, retinal damage, blindness |
|
|
What SE does ethylene glycol intoxication produce? |
Oxalic acid, the toxic metabolite, causes SE of acidosis, kidney problems (bc of crystal depsits), CNS problems, heart/lung toxicity? |
|
|
In what cases might you see methanol and ethylene glycol intoxication? |
Methanol is used by some dumbasses to get drunk or to commit suicide. Whereas ethylene glycol is sweet and ingested by kids and animals. |
|
|
What drug inhibits the enzyme acetaldehyde dehydrogenase? |
Disulfiram It is used in treatment for alcoholism by making acetaldehyde build up
|
|
|
What SE does acetaldehyde accumulation produce? |
Flushing, sweating, headache, headache, nausea, vomiting, hypotension |
|
|
What drugs cause disulfiram-like reaction? |
- Metronizadole - Certain cephalosporins - Procarbazine - 1st generation sulfonylureas |
|
|
What is zero-order elimination? |
- Constant amount of drug eliminated per unit time (e.g. constant miligrams per hour) - Plasma concentration decreases linearly with time |
|
|
What drugs are zero-order elimination? |
PEA: round like 0
Phenytoin Ethanol Aspirin |
PEA |
|
What is first-order elimination? |
- Constant proportion (%) of drug is eliminated per unit of time (regarless the mg) - Plasma concentration decreases exponentially with time
|
|
|
After a drug has been inactivated, what are the two routes of elimination? |
- Bile->feces - Renal->Urine |
|
|
What characteristics do inactive drugs need to have in order to be cleared quickly by the kidney? |
They must be polar, hydrophilic, charged (ionized) species in order to get trapped in the urine. Neutral forms can be reabsorbed. |
|
|
What is the acid dissociation constant? |
"pKa"
Is the pH at which the non-protonated form (A + B) = the amount of protonated form (HA or BH) |
|
|
If pH < pKa, what will you expect to see? |
If pH is low (acidic) , and less than pKa, there will be more protonated form. |
|
|
If pH > pKa, what will you expect to see? |
If pH is high (basic), and more than pKa, there will be more of the nonprotonated form. |
|
|
What substances get trapped in the urine in basic enviroments? |
Weak acids: RCOO- + H+
Phenobartital, methotrexate, aspirin |
|
|
What substances get trapped in the urine in acidic enviroments? |
Weak bases: NH3+
