Study Notes
Understanding Medication Principles
- Idiosyncratic reactions are unpredictable susceptibilities to a drug's action
- Teratogens are substances known to cause birth defects, while carcinogens cause malignant neoplasms
- Drug dependence leads to drug tolerance with continual use and withdrawal symptoms upon withholding the drug
- Drug development is a lengthy, expensive process involving FDA approval and multiple stages, including in vitro and animal studies
- Pharmacology studies drugs' origin, properties, and effects, and comprises divisions such as pharmacotherapy, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, pharmacy, and toxicology
- Routes of administration include oral, parenteral, and transdermal routes
- The dose-response curve represents the relationship between dose and drug response, noting that increasing the dose may lead to toxic effects
- Drug absorption varies based on the route, with considerations such as transport mechanisms, lipid solubility, and ionization
- Drug distribution involves the drug's access to blood plasma, receptor site combination, and factors like plasma protein binding, tissue affinity, and blood flow
- Drug metabolism, or biotransformation, involves processes like enzyme induction, inhibition, and the first-pass effect
- Drug excretion occurs mainly through the kidneys, and factors such as altering urine pH can impact excretion and absorption
- Factors that alter drug effects include patient adherence, the placebo effect, pathologic state, administration with meals, gender, age, genetic variations, and drug interactions
