PHARMACOKINETICS - DEFINITION
• Pharmacon – drug : kineticos – movement• Study that deals with movement of drugs within
the body• “Process of absorption, distribution, metabolism
(biotransformation) & elimination of drugs in the body”• Absorption & distribution - rate of onset of action;
Biotransformation & elimination - extent / duration of action

of drug homogenously at the same conc. found in plasma • Vd= Qty of drug administered / concentration
of drug• Lipid insoluble / highly protein bound drug–
restricted to vascular compartment – low Vd• Drugs sequestered in other tissues – large Vd

• ‘Central’: plasma and highly
perfused tissue reservoirs
• Heart, brain, liver, kidney
• ‘Final’: slowly perfused organs
• Muscle, skin, fat, bone

PHYSIOLOGICAL BARRIERS TO DRUG DISTRIBUTION
(2/2)• Placental Barrier
Allows lipid soluble non polar passive diffusion . High molecular weight dextran & Insulin cannot
cross
![Page 22: Factors affecting pharmacokinetic parameters](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062412/58f9b1bf760da3da068bc3fe/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
DISEASED STATES & SPECIAL SITUATIONS
• Oedema – more fluid in trans-cellular compartment• Sepsis – altered permeability to drugs following
infection/inflammation of bio-membrane• Pregnancy – added tissue and fluid volume (↑Vd)
but ↓albumin – free drug conc. Unaltered: no dose change• Obesity – excessive adipose tissue, ↑Vd for
lipophilic drugs like Diazepam
![Page 23: Factors affecting pharmacokinetic parameters](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062412/58f9b1bf760da3da068bc3fe/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
AGE & GENDER• Total-body water differs with age and sex • TBW of neonates ≈ 75–80% of body weight;
Adult males 60%, Females 55%• Body fat content• Low in children and men; ↓ Vd of lipophilic
drugs • Albumin is ↓ in new born & elderly; ↑ conc. of
unbound drug that primarily bind to albumin

PLASMA PROTEIN BINDING• Reversible binding - circulating drug reservoir• Dynamic equilibrium: Free drug + Protein ↔ Drug-protein
complex• Not accessible to capillary diffusion, metabolism or
excretion• Extensive Protein binding – prolongs duration of action &
availability, but need for larger dosing• Albumin (warfarin, BZD), α1 Acid glycoprotein (quinidine,
CPZ), transcortin (glucocorticoids), Nucleoproteins (digoxin), α globulins (thyroxine), ϒ globulins (antigens)

PH & IONISATION• Weak bases / acids – unionised in basic / acidic PH
respectively • Unionised form crosses Bio-membranes• Plasma PH is basic - Basic drugs unionised; diffuses
into cell - large Vd• But ICF is acidic - larger fraction is ionized &
trapped intracellular

REDISTRIBUTION (LIPID SOLUBILITY)
• Highly lipid soluble drugs get redistributed. • First dose - short acting• Repeated doses - long
acting as drug saturates
In snake bite, recurrent venom effect appear after initial stabilisation; Infusion of 5 ASV vials over 18 hours prevents this. Principle: ASV prevents redistribution of snake venom from bite site Monzavi SM, Dadpour B & Afshari R. Snakebite management in Iran: Devising a protocol. J Res Med Sci. 2014 Feb; 19(2): 153–163.
