The study of pharmacokinetics is important to:
1- Design a proper dosage schedule
(dose, route, frequency of administration)
2- Determine the drug’s bioavailability.
![Page 9: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
*Bioavailability:
1- The fraction (%) of administered drug that reaches the systemic circulation in an unchanged form.
2- Bioavailability is 100% after I.V. & most variable after oral administration
![Page 10: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

Trans-membrane Movement of DrugsPassage of Drugs Across Biological MembranesCell membrane is formed
mainly of bimolecular LIPID sheet, interrupted by protein macromolecules (receptors, carriers, etc.), water-filled pores & ion channels
Lipid
Protein
Water
Ions
![Page 13: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
*Types of Passage of drugs
A) Passive Transfer : 1- Simple Diffusion:
a- Mostly across the LIPID phase of cell membrane.
b- Water & water-soluble small M.W. drugs pass across the water-filled pores.
* Characteristics:
1- Along concentration gradient.
2- NO carrier.
3- NO energy.

Factors & Forces:
1-Gradient (Concentration of drugs )
Higher gradient = Higher rate of passage across the membrane.
2-Molecular weight & size:
The smaller is the faster.
![Page 15: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
*Passive Diffusion (cont.)
3-Solubility in water is a must.
4-Oil (lipid) / Water (O/W) partition coefficient.

*Passive Diffusion (cont.)
5-Ionization: It depends upon pH of the medium & pKa of the
drug (pH at which 50% of drug is ionized) Low Ionization = High lipid solubility = Better
passage. Drugs are non-ionized when they are present in
a similar medium (Acidic drugs in acid medium and basic drugs in alkaline medium).
![Page 17: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
* Effect of pH on Oral Absorption & Renal Excretion of Drugs :
- For weak base and acid drugs:a- The unionized (non-polar) form is lipid soluble and easily absorbed.b- Ionized (polar) form of drugs is lipid insoluble and not easily absorbed but easily excreted.
Weak acid drugs are more unionized in acid & more ionized in alkaline media.
Weak base drugs are more unionized in alkaline & more ionized in acid media.
![Page 18: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
When drugs are present in a reverse medium → Ionized → not lipid soluble → not absorbed → Excreted.
Aspirin is better absorbed in acid medium e.g. Stomach.
Alkalinization of urine by sodium acetate, or citrate its urinary excretion.
Ephedrine is better absorbed in alkaline medium e.g. Intestine.
Acidification of urine by ammonium chloride its urinary excretion.

ExcretionA) Renal:
Non-volatile drugs and metabolites are excreted in the urine.
The clearance of some drugs depends mainly on renal excretion (Little or no metabolism) e.g. Atenolol, Nadolol, Barbitone & Gallamine Caution in Renal patients.
Renal excretion is the result of glomerular filtration
and active tubular secretion & reabsorption
![Page 71: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)

P H A R M A C O D Y N A M I C S(What the DRUG does to the BODY) This science deals with Mechanism &
pharmacological Actions of drugs. Drugs are chemical substances that modify
increase or decease already present cell function but do not create a new one. However, genetic engineering and gene therapy may change this concept.
![Page 77: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
* Types of Drug Action:
1- Local or Topical Action:
NO Absorption from site of administration NO Distribution NO Systemic actions.
The drug acts at site of application.
Examples: Most of eye & ear drops, intra-articular injections & skin ointment.
![Page 78: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
2- Systemic or General Action:
The drug is absorbed and distributed from site of administration.
Examples: Oral aspirin, Subcutaneous (SC) adrenaline & Sublingual (SL) isoprenaline.
3- Reflex or Remote Action:
The drug acts at a site to provoke an effect away from its site of action.
Examples : SC Camphor Irritation Reflex Respiratory center = Reflex Analeptic.
![Page 79: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
* Mechanism of Drug Action:1- Physical:
a- Adsorption: Kaolin & Activated charcoal in diarrhea.
b- Osmotic: MgSO4 as a purgative.
c- Demulcent: Liquorice as an anti-tussive.
d- Astringent: Tannic acid mouth wash in gingivitis
2- Chemical:
a- Neutralization:

3- Interference with Cell Division: Anti-cancer drugs e.g. Nitrogen mustard.
4- Interference with Metabolic Pathway: Sulfonamides compete with PABA in bacteria Synthesis of folic acid.
5- Inhibition of Enzymes: Physostigmine ( Cholinesterase) &
Aspirin ( Cyclooxygenase, COX).
![Page 81: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
6- Action on Ion Channel:
Local anesthetics block Sodium (Na+) channels.
Calcium channel blockers (CCB) e.g. Verapamil block L-type of voltage gated calcium channels of heart & blood vessels.
Some pharmacologists consider ion channels as an especial type of receptors.
![Page 82: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
7- Action on Receptors:A Receptor is a chemo-sensitive & chemo-selective cellular macromolecule that reacts specifically with a Ligand (drug, transmitter or hormone) to produce a biological response:
Affinity (Ka) Efficacy or
Drug + Receptor Drug/Receptor Complex Response (Kd) Intrinsic Activity
1- Affinity = Ability of a drug to fit onto a receptor to form Drug/Receptor complex.
2- Efficacy or Intrinsic Activity = Ability of D/R complex to evoke a response.
3- Ka = Association constant with the receptor4- Kd = Dissociation constant from the receptor
![Page 83: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
* Types of LigandsA) Stimulants = Agonists: These drugs stimulate the receptors directly
and produce their effects by their own. They should have:
1- Affinity.2- High intrinsic activity or efficacy to stimulate
the receptors.3- Rapid rates of association (Ka) &
dissociation (Kd).Examples: Adrenaline ( &), A.Ch. (M & N) &
Morphine ( &).
![Page 84: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
B) Blockers: These drugs produce their effects indirectly by
blocking the receptors and blocking the actions of internal chemical transmitters and/or hormones. They are:
1- Antagonists: They should have:
a- Affinity.
b- No = Zero efficacy No dose/response curve
c- Slow dissociation from receptors.
They block the action of agonists.
Examples: Prazosin, propranolol, atropine & naloxone
![Page 85: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/85.jpg)
2- Partial Agonists = Dualists: They should have:
a- Affinity.
b- Low intrinsic activity = Weak efficacy
Less maximum response (Emax) than agonists.
c- Moderate rates of association & dissociation.
They produce initial stimulation then block of the receptor
If used alone Weak stimulation of the receptor Weak response
If used in presence of an agonist Block the action of the agonist.
Examples: Ergotamine ( + 5-HT), Oxprenolol (), Nicotine (NN) & Succinylcholine (N M).
![Page 86: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
* Types of Block:A) Competitive Block:
- Antagonists bind REVERSIBLY with the receptors.- Antagonists can be DISPLACED by excess agonists
Surmountable-They produce PARALLEL shift of the curve to the RIGHT
Potency.They produce NO effect on the maximum response (E-max) =
Same Efficacy. Examples: Propranolol, atropine & naloxone.B) Non-Competitive Block:Response- Antagonist is NOT displaced by agonist Non-surmountable- Non-Parallel shift of cure to the Right = Potency.- Decrease maximum response (E-max) = Efficacy.
![Page 87: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
- Types of Non-Competitive Block :
a- REVERSIBLE :
- The antagonist binds REVERSIBLY to the receptor.
- The block ends by the Metabolism of the blocker.
- Usually of Short duration of action. - Examples : succinylcholine.
b- IRREVERSIBLE :
- The antagonist binds COVALENTLY to the receptor.
- The block ends by Resynthesis of new receptors.
- Usually of Long duration of action.
- Examples: organophosphorus compounds.

Doses of Drugs (Posology)
1- Therapeutic Dose: Average dose calculated for an Adult, Male, 20-60 year old & 70 Kg body weight.
2- Initial Dose; Initial large dose aiming to reach the therapeutic plasma concentration
3- Maintenance Dose: Small daily dose required to replace eliminated drug from the body to maintain the achieved therapeutic plasma concentration.
4- Maximal Tolerated Dose; Highest dose without toxic effects.
5- Lethal or Fatal Dose: Dose that kill the patient or an experimental animal
![Page 92: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/92.jpg)
6- Therapeutic Index:
Ratio = LD50 / ED50LD50 = Lethal dose in 50% of animals
ED50 = Effective dose in 50% of animals
A good guide to determine & compare SAFETY of drugs
The Higher the therapeutic index The Safer the drug
![Page 93: Pharmacology By Prof. Dr. Amany Ibrahim El-Brairy Professor of Pharmacology H107.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/56649eaa5503460f94bafbec/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Factors Affecting The Dose & Action of Drugs
1. Biological variation Range of dose. Start by minimal effective dose then increase the dose gradually as needed.
2. Age Decrease the dose in extremities of age.A. Geriatrics (Elderly > 60 years):
a. They have exhausted drug-elimination mechanisms (metabolism & excretion).
b. Use 2/3 or 3/4 of the adult dose.B. Pediatrics (Young < 12 years):
a. They have immature drug-elimination mechanisms (metabolism & excretion).
b. Calculate the dose by:- Infant (< 1 year) dose (Clark’s Formula) = Adult dose X (Weight of infant in Pounds/150)- Child (1 – 12 year) dose (Young’s Formula) = Adult dose X [Age in years / (Age + 12)]
or (Dilling’s Formula) = Adult Dose X (Age in Years / 20)
or = Adult Dose X (wt of child in Kg / 70)

3. Body Weight & Surface Area:a. Skeletal muscle weight is more important than fat or edema.b. Surface area = Height in cm X weight in Kg / 3600c. Surface area is more accurate in calculating doses for children & infants.
4. Sex:a. Males need higher doses than females:
Males have bulky muscle tissue & Androgens (HME Inducers) Females have bulky fat tissue & Estrogen (HME Inhibitor)
b. Some drugs are contraindicated in Females during physiological periods: Menstruation: Aspirin & Cathartics Bleeding Pregnancy: Sex hormones, Oxytocics (Ergotamine) & Teratogens
(Phenytoin) Labor: Barbiturates & Morphine Neonatal asphyxia Lactation: Drugs excreted in milk eg Purgatives, Tetracyclines &
Chloramphenicol

5. Route & Time Of Administration:Affect the dose: usually I.V. dose < Oral doseAffect the effect: Mg SO4
After meal No effectOrally Empty stomach 4 g
Cholagogue 15 g Saline purgative
I.V. CNS, Smooth, Skeletal & Cardiac muscle
Retention Enema Dehydrating agent e.g. in brain edema
If drug is irritant Use after mealsIf drug is sedative Use at bed time
6. Commutation:a. Occurs with zero-order kinetics when the rate of intake > rate of
elimination.b. Examples: Digitalis, Aspirin L.D., Phenytoin L.D. & Ethanol L.D.c. To avoid cumulation either The dose or Frequency of
administration.

7. Psychological Effect:Some patients improve by Psychological (Suggestion)
rather than Pharmacological effect of the drug (Placebo effect).
Placebo (Dummy medication) is an inert substance (Lactose, starch, etc.) used in a dosage form (Tablet, capsule, etc). Useful in: Treatment of patients by psychological
suggestion As a comparison when testing new drugs

8. Pathological Condition:a. Some drugs act ONLY in presence of disease:
Aspirin acts as an antipyretic ONLY in fever Digitalis acts as a diuretic ONLY in heart failure
b. Pathology may cause supersensitivity: a- Adrenaline in thyrotoxicosis b- -Blockers in bronchial asthma
c. Pathology may affect drug kinetics: Achlorhydria Intrinsic factor Absorption of Vit B-12 Pernicious anemia.
Liver and/or kidney disease may affect the dose of some drugs.
