    Study Notes

    Drug Interactions

    • Antagonist drugs can be used to reverse the effect of another drug at receptor sites.

    Types of Interactions

    • Competitive inhibition is a type of drug interaction that involves competition for specific receptor sites.

    Antagonistic Reactions

    • An example of an antagonistic reaction is when one drug blocks the effect of another drug at the receptor site.

    Pharmacodynamic Interactions

    • When two drugs with similar pharmacological effects are given together, their effects can be additive or synergistic.
    • Pharmacodynamic interactions involve the interactions between drugs that affect the physiological response to the drug.
