vmb101 Exam Test Questions with 100%
correct answers |Verified |Rated A+
Strength - ANSWER-to the concentration of the active ingredient.



Dose - ANSWER-the amount of a drug and toxic and given at one time.



Dosage - ANSWER-Quantity of drug per unit of time

- This term has info on the strength, frequency and the form of doses.



Pharmacokinetics - ANSWER-what the body does to the drug

determines the concentration of drug in the body and tissues over time through ADME

- Processes: absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME)



Pharmacodynamic - ANSWER-the study of actions of drugs on target organ

effect/what the drug does to the body



Biologics - ANSWER-class of drugs based on large proteins that have therapeutic effect

specific to cell receptors at given disease process

ex: antibodies, vaccines, blood products, cell & gene therapies



ED50 - ANSWER-Effective dose that produce effect in 50% of the population



LD50 - ANSWER-Lethal dose at which 50 % population die in an experimental study



TI - ANSWER-expression of relative safety of the drug



TI calculation and range - ANSWER-LD50/ED50

large TI = safe

,small TI = dangerous



bid - ANSWER-twice a day



tid - ANSWER-three times a day



qid - ANSWER-four times a day



prn - ANSWER-as needed on occasion



qs - ANSWER-sufficient quantity



q4h - ANSWER-every 4 hours



q6h - ANSWER-every 6 hours



q24h/q1d - ANSWER-every 24 hrs/everyday



q1w - ANSWER-every week



gtt - ANSWER-a drop



lipid solubility - ANSWER-defined as the ability of a chemical compound to dissolve in fats, oils, lipids,
and non-polar solvents.



water solubility - ANSWER-the ability of a chemical compound to dissolve in water, which is a polar
solvent.

- highly water soluble compounds are hydrophilic and lipophobic.

, Partition coefficient - ANSWER-- describes the distribution of a chemical between water and an organic
solvent (octanol) at equilibrium

- Aka logP



Octanol-water partition - ANSWER-- Can be determined experimentally by adding the compound to
known volumes of water and octanol and measuring the concentration of the chemical in the octanol
versus the water once equilibrium has been reached.

- The partition coefficient is then calculated as the conc. of solute in octanol / conc of solute in water.



partition coefficient/log P equation - ANSWER-the base 10 log of the partition coefficient



LogP > 0 - ANSWER-o If it is more soluble in octanol and less than water



logP < 0 - ANSWER-o If it is more soluble in water and less lipid soluble



log P = 0 - ANSWER-chemical distribution is the same in water and octanol



logP > 3 - ANSWER-it is very lipophilic or hydrophobic (high fat soluble) and will likely accumulate
disproportionately in lipid environments such as body fat.



2 main factors that determine the lipid & water solubility of a chemical compound - ANSWER-1.
Ionizable groups - functional group that are charged.

- All acids and bases

- ionization state depend on pKa and the pH of the solution



2. Solution pH - measure acidity of a solution.

- logarithmic scale that show the conc of H+ in a solution.



Ionization state - ANSWER-ionization state of a chemical compound depends on whether it is an acid or
a base, functional group's pKa, and the pH of the solution.
