ZFundamentals of Drug Action

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Bronstead- Lowry acid/ base   Acid is proton donor; Base is proton acceptor  
🗑
4 strong acids   HCl; HNO3; H2SO4; HClO4  
🗑
2 strong bases   NaOH; KOH  
🗑
pKa < 2 is a strong   strong acid; no basic properties in water  
🗑
pKa 4-6 is a ?   weak acid; very weak conjugate base  
🗑
pKa 8-10 is a   very weak acid; weak conjugate base  
🗑
pKa > 12   no acidic properties in water; strong conjugate base  
🗑
the stronger an acid, the weaker its conjugate base   no answer  
🗑
what is the conjugate acid and base of HA + H20   Conj acid= H3O; conj base is A-  
🗑
Keq=   [products]/ [reactants]  
🗑
difference between pH and pKa   pH is property of a solution/ pKa is property of a molecule- the tendency of protonated for to give up a proton  
🗑
Henderson Hasselbalch eq:   pH= pKa+ log [conj base/ acid]; the conj base is proton acceptor, acid is donor  
🗑
Relates pH/ pKa to relative amount of acid/ base   henderson- hasselbalch equation  
🗑
Drugs that are amines are:   basic  
🗑
In an acid, what gets ionized   conjugate base gets ionized; ex: HCl --> Cl-  
🗑
In a base, what gets ionized?   the acid is ionized  
🗑
Conjugate base of salicylic acid   salicylate  
🗑
Drugs that are amines are:   basic  
🗑
In an acid, what gets ionized   conjugate base gets ionized; ex: HCl --> Cl-  
🗑
In a base, what gets ionized?   the acid is ionized  
🗑
Conjugate base of salicylic acid   salicylate  
🗑
Henderson Hasselbalch; not always charged reactant   always protonated form on the left (reactant) side of the equation (DENOMINATOR)  
🗑
For ionized acids, pH is above or below pKa?   pH is above pks (chart)  
🗑
For a base, the percent ionization gets higher as pH   gets lower (think chart)  
🗑
Pharmaco-kinetics   Action of the body on the chemical (what the body does to the drug)  
🗑
Pharmaco- dynamics   What the drug does to the body  
🗑
Processes of pharmacokinetics ADME   absorpion, distribution, metabolism, elimination  
🗑
Output: Concentration- time relationships   Pharmacokinetics  
🗑
Process of pharmacodynamics:   Biological ligands acting on their molecular targets in the body  
🗑
Output: Biological response   Pharmacodynamics  
🗑
when drug reached site of action we see   pharmacodynamics response; drug- receptor complex/ pharmacologic response  
🗑
Prior to reaching targets the drug must go thru what obstacles? These barriers affect the pharmacokinetics ofthe drug   pass thru barriers (membranes) avoid wrong turn (ex: accumulating in fat cells; avoid metabolic destruction; stability at different pH levels  
🗑
absorption is affected by ionization state   true; affects drug;s ability to pass thru membranes  
🗑
acids like aspirin are absorbed where   stomach, low pH- the thing that is UNionized is absorbed..aspirin in unionized on the chart until about pH 5. after that it would not be too useful  
🗑
Bases are absorbed in   intestines because as pH increases, bases get LESS ionized  
🗑
why precipitation of bases?   go from charged NH3+ to uncharged NH2; less polar and may precipitate because out of solution; wants to get away from water (hydrophobic)  
🗑
ases are 100% ionized where in the absorption process   stomach  
🗑
to pass thru lipid barrier, a weak acid would be on the left side of the equation because   it is unionized  
🗑
weak bases pass thru lipid barrier on the right side of the equation because   they are neutral (unionized); they are protonated on the left side of the rxn; example: BH+ +H2O <-> H3O + B(neutral)  
🗑
PH maintenance mechanisms (3)   chemical buffering; lungs; kidney (renal)  
🗑
Chemical buffering (quick) name 4 systems   bicarbonate buffer;phosphate buffer; ammonia buffer; proteins  
🗑
If strong acid is introduced, the reaction will move in which direction?   left because the A- will pick up an H+ which drives the rxn to make HA  
🗑
The most important extracellular (plasma) buffering system   bicarbonate buffer system; generally considered clinically  
🗑
Carbonic acids (H2CO3) exist in low amounts in the body; CO2 is considered the weak acid   no answer  
🗑
Co2 and HCO3 act as buffers   true  
🗑
pCO2 is used as?   an index of the amount of carb on dioxide in the body (normally 40mm Hg)  
🗑
Normal concentration of bicarbonate is   24 mEq/L; ratio of HCO3-/ H2CO3 is 20:1  
🗑
Intracellular buffer; also in the kidneys   phosphate buffer system  
🗑
By-product of amino acid metabolism   ammonia; amino acids can serve as buffers in the ammonia buffer system  
🗑
most plentiful chemical buffers; high concentrations inside cell   proteins; side chains can accept or donate a proton  
🗑
CO2 is an acid and the lungs remove it to raise pH   no answer  
🗑
The slowest most powerful acid/ base balance   Renal (kidney); excrete acidic or basic urine depending on whats needed  
🗑
If bicarbonate is not reabsorbed( back into bloodstream) it is excreted   in the urine; bicarbonate is not well absorbed by itself, must combine with a proton  
🗑
Bicarbonate and H+ combine to form what?   CO2 and H2O; then can enter renal tubule; once in the renal tubule they can separate and bicarbonate returns to capillary  
🗑
excess acid in plasma, what does kidney do?   kidney reabsorbs ALL bicarbonate to raise pH  
🗑
Alkalosis, what does kidney do with bicarbonate?   less bicarbonate is reabsorbed, more is excreted  
🗑
respiratory acidosis   increased pCO2; high bicarbonate indicates compensation  
🗑
Metabolic acidosis   low bicarbonate; normal pCO2 indicates not related to respiratory but can be low as compensation  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
