Nitrous oxide tank color blue
Oxygen tank color green
Nitrous oxide Sensation before onset = tingling of limbs/fingers SE = nausea Long term exposure --> peripheral neuropathy
Why give 3-5min oxygen after shutting off nitrous oxide? to prevent diffusion hypoxia
Pharmacokinetics vs. Pharmacodynamics Pharmacokinetics: What the BODY does on the drug Administration, absorption, distribution, metabolism, clearance Pharmacodynamics: What the DRUG does on the body
Systemic drugs cross through what layers to get through to the bloodstream? Lumen - apical membrane - basal lateral membrane - interstitial fluid - endothelium of blood vessel via passive diffusion (must be non-ionized), facilitated diffusion, active transport
Bioavailability of drugs is only 100% if administered via _________. IV
pH considerations Weak acids: pH of environment < drug pKa Weak bases: pH of environment > pKa
First pass effect The initial metabolism in the liver of a drug absorbed from the GI to the hepatic portal system Reason why bioavailability is reduced
Volume of distribution (Vd) Vd = (amount of drug in the body) / (plasma drug concentration) Distribution of drug across the 3 body water departments (60% body weight): Plasma 4% Interstitial 16% Intracellular 40%
T/F: Binding to serum proteins lowers Vd and "traps" drugs in the blood as hydrophilic molecules. True
Which tissue have lowest and highest water content? Fat - lowest Brain/muscle - highest
Drug metabolism phase Phase 1 - functionalization (redox + hydrolysis) by Cytochrome P450 Phase 2 - conjugation (glucouronide, glutathione, glycine) by UDP-glucouronosyltransferase
Drug clearance Phase 1 --> urine Phase 2 --> GI
First-order vs. Zero-order elimination kinetics First-order (more common) - constant FRACTION of drug is eliminated per time (%/hour) Zero-order - constant AMOUNT of drug is eliminated per unit time (mg/hour); higher risk of drug accumulation
Induction vs. inhibition DDIs Induction - Drug #1 induces liver cytochrome enzymes --> INCREASED metabolism + REDUCED effect of Drug #2 Inhibition - Drug #1 competes or directly inhibits liver cytochrome enzymes --> DECREASED metabolism + INCREASED toxicity of Drug #2
Almost all drug targets are ________. proteins
Agonist vs. Antagonist Agonist: medication binds to the same site as an endogenous substance (e.g., neurotransmitter) to produce similar response Antagonist: Medication binds to a receptor and thus, prevents the binding and action of an agonist
Competitive antagonist vs. non-competitive antagonist Competitive - binds to the same active site as agonist Non-competitive - binds to a different active site (allosteric site) on the enzyme receptor, but prevents agonist from binding
Inverse agonist inhibits the basal activity of a receptor in the absence of the normal agonist binds to a special kind of receptor that is active at rest in order to inhibit its basal activity
Type I vs. Type II dose response curve Type I: dose vs. drug efficacy Usually in sigmoid/log form Type II: dose vs. patient response Usually 3 curves
Intrinsic activity (efficacy) Ability of a drug to activate a receptor and produce an effect Full agonist has intrinsic activity = 1 Partial agonist = 0-1 Antagonist = 0
Efficacy vs. Affinity vs. potency Efficacy - effect of a drug as a function of binding Affinity - attractiveness of a drug to its receptor Lower dissociation constant (Kd) = higher affinity Potency - power of a drug at a specific concentration, measured with EC50
Competitive antagonist vs. non-competitive antagonist effects on Type I dose response curve Competitive --> shifts curve right Noncompetitive --> shifts curve down
Type II dose curve ED50 - effective dose 50% of population TD50 - toxic dose 50% of population LD50 - toxic dose 50% of population
How is the therapeutic index calculated? Human studies = TD50/ED50 The larger the TI, the safer it is.
Additive vs Synergistic effects Additive: when the effect of 2 drugs together = each one individually Synergistic: when the effect of 2 drugs together is MORE than each one individually
Parasympathetic (PSNS) and sympathetic (SNS) nerves extend from which part of the spinal cord? Cranial + sacral = PSNS Thoracic + lumbar = SNS
PSNS bodily effects -pupil constriction -stimulated saliva -decreased heart rate -airway constriction -stimulated digestion -bladder constriction
SNS bodily effects -pupil dilation -dry mouth -increased heart rate -airway relaxation -slowed digestion -bladder relaxation
Ionotropic vs Metabotropic receptors in the ANS Ionotropic - ion channel; faster Metabotropic - G-protein coupled receptor; slower
2 kinds of cholinergic receptors Muscarinic (metabotropic) - ACh + muscarine =postganglionic PSNS Nicotinic (ionotropic) - ACh + nicotine =ganglion receptors
Adrenergic receptors binds to epi/NE metabotropic postganglionic sympathetic
SNS and PSNS nerve length SNS - short pre-ganglion, long post OR short-pre to adrenal medulla, then direct secretion into blood stream PSNS - long pre-ganglion, short post
T/F: All ganglion and adrenal medulla receptors are nicotinic (ionotropic) receptors, for both SNS and PSNS. True
ACh synthesis acetyl CoA + choline, catalyzed by choline acetyltransferase **reversed by acetylcholinesterase
Muscarinic receptors subtypes M1, M4, M5 - CNS M2 --> bradycardia M3 --> smooth muscle relaxation
What patients should not be given M agonists? Those with: -peptic ulcers -asthma/COPD -CHF You don't want to increase gastric acid production and bronchoconstriction or decrease cardiac output
Synthesis of epi/NE Tyrosine --> L-DOPA --> dopamine --> NE --> epi
Catecholamines vs monamines Catecholamine = dopamine, NE, epi Monamines = dopamine, NE, epi, serotonin, histamine
Adrenergic receptor subtypes alpha 1, alpha 2 - vasoconstriction, urinary retention, pupil dilation (mydriasis) beta 1 - TACHYCARDIA, renin release from kidneys beta 2 - bronchodilation, vasodilation, stop peristalsis
sympathomimetic agent that mimics the effects of the sympathetic nervous system, but either releasing NE stores or causing re-uptake examples: cocaine, TCAs, MAOIs, tyramine (wine, cheese, chocolate)
T/F: When alpha 2 receptors are agonized, it will block SNS signal. True, because these receptors are in CNS.
Epinephrine reversal when epinephrine is administered in the presence of an alpha blocker (Prazosin or Chlorpromaxine), will cause decrease in BP rather than increase because beta-mediated vasodilation predominates
Vasovagal reflex NE can activate baroreceptors --> stimulate vagal reflex --> reduce HR, which is an opposite response to what NE usually does
_________ blocks the vasovagal reflex. Atropine
What contributes to BP? BP = CO x PR OR BP = SV x HR x PR because CO = SV x HR
Preload vs. afterload Preload - pressure in ventricles before heart contracts Afterload - pressure in arteries against which the ventricles must pump
Diuretic antihypertensive MOA decreases renal reabsorption of Na+ --> net fluid loss --> BP reduction
Furosemide, HCTZ, Spironolactone Antihypertensive diuretics Furosemide - loop HCTZ - Thiazide (distal tubule); HYPOKalemia risk Spironolactone - K+ sparing (collecting duct; HYPERKalemia risk
Antihypertensive vasodilators and CCB MOA Vasodilator - opens K+ channels --> hyperpolarizes inside --> vasodilation - ex: Hydralazine CCBs - blocks Ca2+ influx --> hyperpolarizes inside --> vasodilation - ex: Verapamil, Dilitiazem, Amlodipine, Nifedipine
SE of CCBs gingival hyperplasia
Angiotensin II increases blood pressure by stimulating kidneys to reabsorb more water and by releasing aldosterone
Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system -decreased blood pressure causes the juxtaglomerular cells of kidneys to secrete renin which converts angiotensinogen (inactive) to angiotensin I (active) which is then converted into angiotensin II by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) -Angiotensin II stimulates the adrenal cortex to secrete aldosterone - leads to absorption of Na and increased blood pressure -once blood pressure is restored, there is a decreased drive to stimulate renin release
Antihypertensive ACE inhibitors (-prils) blocks ACE, which converts angiotensin I into angiotensin II (vasoconstrictor)
Nitroglycerin, propranolol, CCBs belong to what family of meds? Antianginals (insufficient O2 to cardiac muscle) -NTG - vasodilates smooth muscle in coronary arteries -Propranolol - reduces O2 demand by relaxing heart - CCBs - reduces O2 demand by reducing peripheral resistance via vasodilation
Heart attack emergency response MONA Morphine, O2, NTG, Aspirin
Anti-CHF drugs should be given when...... heart fails to pump enough blood Cardiac glycosides + ACE inhibitors
Cardiac Glycosides (Digoxin) MOA Direct inhibition of Na+/K+ ATPase --> increase Ca2+ influx --> positive inotropy in cardiac muscle cells. Stimulates vagus nerve--> decrease HR.
4 types of Anti-arrhythmic Drugs: Type 1 - Na+ channel blockers for cardiac muscle 1A - lengthens refractory period to slow HR 1B (Lido)- shortens refractory period to speed up HR Type 2 - beta blockers Type 3 - K+ channel blockers Type 4 - CCBs
Dopamine, serotonin, GABA receptor effects Dopamine & serotonin - excite GABA - depress

The more soluble the general anesthetic agent in blood, the (more/less) you need to reach critical tension in the brain. More
Halothane's (GA) SE hepatotoxicity
Cause of Parkinson's? dopamine deficiency in brain
T/F: Dopamine cannot cross the BBB. True, but its precursor (L-DOPA) can
Carbidopa is administered w/ L-DOPA because it blocks DOPA decarboxylase to maintain L-DOPA's structure, so that it can cross the BBB before converting to dopamine
Neostigmine inhibits ACH-ase activity
Pharmacodynamics what the drug does to the body -affinity to R -selectivity
Affinity tightness of binding attractiveness of a drug for its R measured w/ Kd

Pharmacovigilance the safety of the drug - aka toxicity
Pharmacogenomics variations in response due to genetic differences
List the 5 main R types Ion channels = fastest Transmembrane GPCR Transmembrane enzymatic cytosolic domain R: drug binds --> dimerization -ex = tyrosine kinase Intracellular R = slowest, regulates transcription -ex = steroids Adhesion R

Therapeutic index margin of safety of drug TI = TD50 / ED50 ↑Therapeutic index = ↑safety
pH pKA Henderson-Hasselbach equation pH: negative log of [H+] pKa : pH where protonated + unprotonated species are in [equal] Henderson-Hasselbach equation: pH = PkA + Log [conjugate base/acid]
Volume of Distribution (Vd) amount of drug in the body to the [plasma] ↑ Vd = ↓[drug] in plasma = mostly distributed to tissue ↓Vd = drug still in the blood
Metabolism -phase 1 rxns -phase 2 rxns phase 1 = oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis phase 2 = synthesis -conjugation (more water soluble) = glucuronidation + sulfonation -acetylation/methylation (less water soluble)
