A man is very upset with a drug recall of a medication he has been taking for a long
time. He states that he feels like he can no longer trust anyone to protect him. In
response to his questions about the process of drug development, it is important to
know that with a new drug, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is
responsible for?

evaluating the drug for safety and effectiveness
Enzyme induction

production of larger amounts of drug-metabolizing enzymes by liver cells;
process accelerates drug metabolism because larger amounts of the
, enzymes (and more binding sites) allow larger amounts of a drug to be
metabolized during a given time

Immunoglobulins
Give this one a try later!
-Immunoglobulin fractions are preferred over whole serum because they
are more likely to be effective in disease prevention.
-immunoglobulins (antibodies) specific for that microorganism, providing
protection against disease with later exposure.
Also known as antibodies, are glycoprotein molecules produced by plasma
cells (white blood cells). They act as a critical part of the immune response
by specifically recognizing and binding to particular antigens, such as
bacteria or viruses, and aiding in their destruction.
,Organogenesis

formation of organs during embryonic development
Alopecia

hair loss
Biologic response modifiers
Give this one a try later!
intrinsic and extrinsic substances in the body that enhance the body's
response to infection; for example, interferons, monoclonal antibodies,
interleukin-2, and types of colony-stimulating factors
malignant cells
Give this one a try later!
-potentially life-threatening cancer cells
-A malignant cell develops from a damaged normal cell, beginning with a
random mutation (abnormal structural change in the genetic material of a
, cell) that occurs in conjunction with acquired damage to genes that
regulate normal cell growth.
Cholesterol

component of cell membrane that is produced and processed in the liver;

causing abnormal embryonic or fetal development
Maintenance dose

quantity of drug that is needed to keep blood levels and/or tissue levels at
a steady state or constant level
