the conjunctival sac (not the eyeball/cornea). inner to outer
enema - Answer✔️✔️-patient lays on left side
pharmacokinetic - Answer✔️✔️-what happens in the body once med is
administered
-Absorption
-Distribution/ Binding
-Metabolism
-Renal Excretion
first-pass effect - Answer✔️✔️-extent to which drug metabolized by liver
before reaching systemic circulation
protein binding - Answer✔️✔️-protein (usually albumin) binds to
medication to help chemicals move through. When the medication is
bound to the protein it is not available to perform its action the body
free drug - Answer✔️✔️-The amount that is left not bound called
the__________________and it performs the pharmacologic response
pharmacodynamics phase - Answer✔️✔️-refers to the effects drugs will have
on a patient and the mechanism of their actions.
antacids drug absorption - Answer✔️✔️-Antacids cause a pharmokinetic
interaction which is what the body does to the drug in terms of absorption,
distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Antacids increase the PH of gastric
juices which causes a decrease in the absorption of weak acid drugs such as
tetracycline
gastric and intestinal motility influence drug absorption. - Answer✔️✔️-
Drug absorption is the movement of the drug into the bloodstream after
administration (McCuistion & Vuljoin-Dimmagio, 2018, p. 16). The lining
of the small intestine is covered in villi that increase the the surface area for
absorption and is decreased because of disease or drugs (p.16). Absorption
in the small intestine is done by passive transport, active transport, or
pinocytosis (p.16). In the GI tract the lining is made up of a mucous
membrane composes of lipids and proteins which allows lipid soluble
drugs to easily pass through (p. 16-17). If the drug is water soluble it will
need a protein or enzyme carrier to pass through (p.17).
NMS or Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome - Answer✔️✔️-Delirium with
fever, catalepsy, and muscle rigidity, and blood
