PHASE I
1.Oxidation
2.Reduction
3.Deamination
4.Hydrolysis
PHASE II
- Synthetic reactions
- Endogenous substrate is conjugated to the parent drug to make it more polar
PHASE II
1. Glucoronidation-glucoronic acid
2. Acetylation-acetyl CoA
3. Sulfation 4. Methylation
5. Glycine conjugation-glycine
6. Glutathione conjugation
7. H20 conjugation
- Gastric acid
*Penicillin
*Insulin
*Epinephrine
LIVER
A. GENETIC FACTORS
1. HYDROLYSIS OF ESTERS
- Succinylcholine
2. ACETYLATION OF AMINES
- Isoniazid (INH)
3. OXIDATION
- Dextrometorphan, metoprolol and some tricyclic antidepressants
Individual differences
B. OTHER DRUGS
1. ENZYME INDUCTION
- May also induce metabolism of other drugs and reduce its effects
Phenytoin Rifampicin
2. ENZYME INHIBITION
- Inhibit CP450
1. Altered absorption
- Cholestyramine inhibits the effect of digoxin when combined with it
2. Altered metabolism
- Affects drug action
3. Altered plasma binding protein
4. Altered excretion
- Probenecid inhibits the secretion of acids
- Penicillin inhibits the excretion of probenecid
DRUG INTERACTION
1. ADDITIVE *1 + 1 = 2
- Response elicited by combined drugs is equal to the combined response of
the individual drugs
- Sedative + ethanol
2. SYNERGISTIC *1 + 1 = 3
- response elicited by combined drugs is greater than the combined responses
of each individual
- Penicillin G removes the cell wall Gentamicin inhibits production of protein
3. POTENTIATION *0 + 1 = 2
- Drug which has no effect enhances the effect of the second drug
- Cimetidine + anticoagulant (enhances the anticoagulation)
4. ANTAGONISM * 1 + 1 = 0
- Drug inhibits the effect of another drug
- Heparin + protamine
