identifies the drug's active ingredient
generic name
also called the brand name, is chosen by the pharmaceutical company that markets the
drug and is protected by trademark
trade name
T or f: The form in which a drug is manufactured may determine the method of
administration
true
What are the two ways in which drugs are categorized by:
pharmaceutical class, therapeutic class
drug class that refers to the mechanism of action, physiologic effect, and chemical
structure of the drug
pharmaceutical class
drug class that refers to the clinical indication fro the drug or therapeutic action
therapeutic class
subtopic of pharmacology that considers the "therapeutic uses and effects of drugs"
pharmacotherapeutics
,the effect the body has on a drug once the drug enters the body
pharmacokinetics
the means by which a drug is moved from its point of entry into the body to the
bloodstream
absorption
T or F: The rate of absorption is independent of the route of administration
false
Drugs administered ___ tend to take the longest to be absorbed while liquids that are not
first dissolved into the body may be absorbed faster than those given in capsule or
tableta. Drugs injected ___ or ___ are usually absorbed more rapidly than oral
medications. Drugs administered ___ are placed directly into the bloodstream, thus
technically are not absorbed and take effect quickly. Drugs administered through intact
___, unless formulated specifically for systemic absorption (transdermal patches), tend
to have primarily local effects. However, drugs delivered across a ___ membrane (oral
mucosa, eye, nose, vagina, or rectum) are both locally and systemically absorbed,
meaning the drug acts right at the site of administration, but also passes directly into
the bloodstream.
orally, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, intravenously, skin, mucous
is
takes place following a drug's injection or absorption inot the bloodstream
distribution
the alteration of an active drug from its original form to an inactivated or new form
metabolism
, the process by which drugs act on target cels, resulting in alterations in cellular
reactions and functions
pharmacodynamics
harmful effects that lead to injury
adverse drug reactions
an immune system response that occurs when the body interprets the administered
drug as a foreign substance and forms antibodies against the drug
allergic effect
most serious allergic effect
anaphylactic reaction
life threatening and results in respiratory distress, sudden bronchospasm, and
cardiovascular collapse
anaphylaxis
occurs when the body becomes accustomed to the effecys of a particular drug over a
period of time
drug tolerance
specific groups of symptoms related to drug therapy that carry risk for permanent
damage or death
toxic effects
any unusual or peculiar response to a drug that may manifest itself by overresponse,
