questionhint
putting drugs in oil slows absorption, this is a ____

tablets, granules, or powders cannot be absorbed until they _______ into smaller particles
drug that occupies the receptor sand produces no cellular effectite
lipophilic drugs are absorbed best _____
factor that influences blood levels of a drug: _____ of drug in body
low plasma protein= more or less of drug free?
What makes it hard for drug molecules to get through to the brain?
endothelial cells in the brain have ____ junctions
passive diffusion is from high to low concentration, T or F
the random movement of drug molecules
factor that influences blood levels of a drug: _____ of drug absorbed
If a molecule changes to primarily hydrophilic form, it may not be able to leave the cell; what is this called?

most drugs given orally are absorbed in the _____
lipophilic molecules dissolve in ____
does active transport require energy?

hydrophilic molecules dissolve in ____
does passive diffusion require energy?
T or F: drug molecules can change from ionized to non-ionized or vice versa as they move to different compartments
hydrophilic drug given SQ or IM is absorbed quickly or slowly?
questionhint
what type of drugs pass through the cell membranes?
the dose of highly protein-bound drugs should be _____ if diseases are present that cause low plasma protein levels
what type of drugs move into the bloodstream by moving between capillary endothelial cells
active transport is from high to low concentration, T or F
some drugs bind to large _____ in the bloodstream
Cat livers have increased or decreased ability to biotransform drugs
the time, after certain number of doses, where the peak and trough concentrations remain the same
biotransformation occurs primarily in what organ?
measure of the acidity or alkalinity of the drugs environment

drug concentrations decrease by half at repeatable time intervals, this time is what?
factor that influences blood levels of a drug: rate and ____ of excretion
amount of drug that actually reaches the bloodstream
drug molecules are surrounded by part of the cell membrane and taken within the cell
endothelial cells in the brain are coated with ___ cells
drug that occupies a receptor site producing a cellular effect
if a drug is highly protein bound, is there more or less drug free to exert a therapeutic effect?
T or F: different compartments of the body have different pHs
is physical transport useful for large or small molecules?
steady state= __ x half life
are solids or liquids more rapidly absorbed?
