|
|
Federal Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906
|
all drugs be free of adulterants.
|
|
Food drug and Cosmetic Act
|
1938. People died using antibodic. This made an issue that all drugs needed to go through FDA.
|
|
Harris-Kefauver Amendment
|
1962 Passed 3 things:
1. All drugs had to show effectiveness. 2. Drugs approved from 1932 go through testing 3. Need to have rigous testing on all medicatoins. |
|

|
Standards for drugs that cause abuse (1970)
|
|
1992
|
1. Accelerated approval on cancer drugs and aids

|
1997
|
1. More drugs faster approved
2. More children research 3. Drug companies can give off label articles about their drugs provided they do research. 4. Drug companies have to give 6 months notice about drugs going off market. |
|
Absorption
|
site of admin to into blood
|
|
Distribution
|
from blood to interspecial tissues of body
|
|
Metabolism
|
alteration of drug usually in liver.
|
|
Excretion
|
drugs out of the body
|
|
To cross a memrane
|
1. Lipid soluble
2. transport system 3. through channel or pore. not many pores are small enough. |
|
Polar molecules
|
Uneven distribution of electrical charge. No net charge. Hard time passing through the cell.
|
|
Ions
|
have a charge...very small and only the smallest go through the membrane.
|
|
Aborption
|
1. better blood flow the better.
2. the larger the surface area. In the intestine instead of the stomach. 3. Lipid soluble very much better |
|
entertic coated pills
|
1. protect stomach from acid and pepsin in the stomach
2. to protect the stomach from any drugs that cause discomfort. |
|
Distribution
|
movement from the blood to interstial speace of tissue
|
|
Distribution
|
1. blood flow to tissues tumors abscess.
2. blood exiting the vascular system..through capillary beds 3. Can it enter the cells. The ability for the cell to enter the cell. |
|
Blood-Brain barrier
|
lipid soluble can move through
transport can work if already set up. |
|
Metabolism
|
1. Pass through the liver.
2. Helps those who are lipid soluble get ready for execretion from the kidneys 3. Can lead to toxicity if not broken down. |
|
First pass effect
|
Certain drugs can be inactivated by the liver ex. nitroglycerin.
|
|
Excretion
|
Most important organ: kidney
2. out of hte body into breat milk |
|
theraputic range
|
b/t minimum effect and toxicity.
|
|
Half-life
|
time required to reduce the amount of drug by fifty percent
|
|
Loading dose
|
1st inital dose
|
|
Plateau phase
|
how drug bulidisin the body when multiple doses are given
|
|
pharmacodynamic
|
what drugs do to the body and the mechanism which is done.
|
|
Dose patient relationship
|
Determine Min
Determine Max Determine the amouthn of drug increases that produces a disered effect. |
|
Maximal Efficacy
|
LARGEST EFFECT A DRUG CAN PRODUCE. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT IN A DRUG. This is also dependent on individuals.
|
|
Relative Potency
|
NOT AN IMPORTANT QUALITY. Amount of drug to have effect.
|
|
Drug Receptors
|
need to bind to a cellular binding site to produce an effect. We can reverse by taking drug away.
|
|
Simple Occupancy Theory
|
As receptor site increase the amount of response increases. When all are filled up you should be at max efficency.
|
|
Affinity is directly related to potoncy
|
the more drug-the stronger the attraction b/t a drug and its receptors.
|
|
Agonists
|
Drug molecules that activate receptors. These have HIGH affinity and HIGH intrinic activity.
|
|
Antagonists
|
Drug molecules that prevent activation at receptor sites. No intriic activity. YES...then have HIGH affinity.
|
|
Partial Agonist
|
Has only moderate intrinic activity-acts as antagonist or Agonists....can be bothF
|
|
4 primary families on cell membrane
|
1. cell membrane embedded enzyme lie on surface of cells
2. Ligand-gated ion channel; millisecond; lie on surface of cells. 3. G protenin couples receptor system. Shake receptor sites; for this to be cmoplete we must have an entire family of G protein effects. 4. Transcription Factors-DNA replication. w/i nucleus rather then on surface. Responses are delayed...takes longer for reception to occur. Responsible for DNA and protein Sythesis. Anatogist are hypersentified. Agonist get tired. Some drugs don't need receptors like anticipetics and antacids. |
|
Idiosyncratic effect
|
genetic predispostion to certian drugs
|
|
Iatrogenic
|
produced from drug you are taking like glucose intoleranc from HTN drugs.
|
|
Drug Tolerance
|
decrease responsive to a srug as a result of repeated dose.
|
|
Pharmacoldynamic drug toleratance
|
long term, mrophine, paxil is thought to reslut from process that occur in response to chronic receptor occupation.
|
|
Metabolic Tolerance
|
accelerated metabolism. Need more meds.
|
|
Tachyphylaxis
|
reduction in drug response brought on by repeated dosing over time.
|
