|
What is Km?
|
then conc. of the substrate at which enzyme is at 1/2Vmax
reflects the affinity of an enzyme for it's substrate |
|
|
Which has higher affinity, a low or high Km?
|
lower Km = higher affinity
|
|
|
What does a non-competitive inhibitor do to the enzyme's kinetics?
|
It decreases the enzyme's Vmax but doesn't affect it's affinity for substrate (Km unchanged)
|
|
|
What does a competitive inhibitor do to the enzyme's kinetics?
|
It decreases the enzyme's affinity for substrate (bigger Km) but the Vmax stays the same
|
|
|
What do competitive antagonists do to the pharmacodynamics?
|
Decrease potency
|
right shit on curve - more agonist needed to achieve same effect |
|
What do non-competitive antagonists do to the pharmacodynamics?
|
Decrease efficacy
|
down shift on curve. lower maximum effect of agonist |
|
What is volume of distribution (Vd)?
|
amt of drug deliver (mg)/conc. in blood (mg/L)
|
units are in L |
|
What is a low Vd?
|
~4L-8L ==> indicates most of the drug stayed in the blood
|
|
|
what is the formula for half-life?
|
(0.7xVd)/CL
|
|
|
What is the formula for loading dose?
|
(Cp x Vd)/F
|
Cp = target plasma conc. F = bioavailability of drug (=1 when given IV) |
|
What is the formula for maintenance dose?
|
(Cp x CL) /F
|
Cp = target plasma conc. F=bioavailability of drug |
|
What is the formula for clearance of a drug?

|
constant amount of drug eliminated per time |
|

|
|
What is a first order elimination?
|
rate of elimination is proportion to the drug concentration
|
constant fraction eliminated per unit time |
|
How do you speed up elimination of a drug (as in during overdose)?
|
You give them something to cause the drug to go into it's ionized form.
Ionized molecules can be filtered but not readily reabsorbed so they will be more likely to pee it out |
If the drug is a weak acid ==> treat with bicarbonate (raise pH, make pee more basic) If the drug is a weak base ==> treat with ammonium chloride to lower the pH (make pee more acidic) |
|
What are examples of drugs that are weak acids that might be overdosed?
|
methotrexate
phenobarbital aspirin |
treat with bicarb to make them pee it out |
|
What is a Phase 1 reaction?
|
P-450 in liver causes reduction, oxidation, hydrolysis ==> slightly polar, water soluble metabolites that are often still active
|
this is what you loose with age |
|
What is a Phase 2 reaction?
|
acetylation, glucuronidation and sulfation yielding very polar, inactive metabolites that can be renally excreted
|
|
|
What is the difference between efficacy and potency?
|
efficacy is the max effect a drug can have
potency is how much drug you need to give to achieve a given effect |
|
|
What does a partial agonist do to the pharmacodynamics of a reaction?
|
It decreases the efficacy and can either raise or lower the potency
|
|
|
what is therapeutic index?
|
median lethal dose/median effective dose
|
safer drugs have higher TI values |
|
What does it mean if a drug has a low therapeutic index?
|
It has a very narrow therapeutic window. You have to careful because the toxic dose may not be much higher than the effective dose.
