Cards

Term
Antacids
Definition

______ + tetracycline

  • Effect drug binding in the GI tract
    • tetracycline binds to the divalent cations of _______ (aluminum and calcium) forming an insoluble complex
_______ + Asprin 

    • Impact: _________ reduce the tubular reabsorption of salicylate via an increase in urine pH

      _______ makes the urine alkaline therefore inreasing the excretion of asprin. in other words, asprin is not reabsorbed. 

Term
hydralazine 
Definition

increase in renal blood flow effecting excretion of digoxin 

 

increases the renal clearance of digoxin


_______ treats high blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels so blood can flow more easily through the body 

 

Term
digoxin 
Definition

a drug used to treat congestive heart failure by slowing the heart beat. 

 

drug interaction along with hydralazine, which  increases renal blood flow leading to faster renal clearance of this drug

 

 

Term
probenecid 
Definition

______+ Penicillin

Inhibition of active tubular secretion 

 

______competitively inhibits the excretion of Penicillin

this makes penicillin more effective

 

Term
Penicillin 
Definition

________ + Probenecid 

Inhibition of active tubular secretion 

 

probenecid prolongs the half-life of _______, allowing single dose therapy

Term
Asprin 
Definition

______ + antacids 

Alterations in tubular reabsorption 

(_____ is not reabsorbed because of the antacid raising the pH of the urine, ___ is excreted)


______ + Acetaminophen

Additive effect

the combined effect of the two drugs giving the same response by the SAME MECHANISM 

Term
cimetidine 
Definition

inhibits the enzyme responsible for the metabolism of Theophylline 

 

__________ reduces the metabolism of theophylline (by inhibition of CYP450 isozymes) causing an accumulation in theophylline levels



Term
Phenobarbital 
Definition

Metabolism enzyme induction 

 

_____________ increases the metabolism of warfarin, resulting in reduced anticoagulation

Term
Warfarin 
Definition

Metabolism interaction with Phenobarbital (enzyme Induction) leads to less _____ in circulation because it is metabolized faster 

 

Distribution interaction:


Phenylbutazone displaces ______ from plasma binding sites. as a result more _____ is free in circulation 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Term
Phenylbutazone 
Definition

an NSAID no longer used in humans that displaces warfarin from plasma binding sites

 

this is an example of a distribution interaction: displacement from tissue binding sites/proteins
