4 Types of Drug Interactions - Answer>> 1. Direct
Physical Interaction
- Direct chemical or physical interaction of 2+ drugs

2. Pharmacokinetic Interaction
- Interactions affecting ADME

3. Pharmacodynamic Interaction
- Interactions affecting receptor binding

4. Combined Toxicity
- 2+ drugs exhibit toxicity to the same organ (i.e.
hepatotoxicity or QT interval prolongation)

Types of Drug Interactions: Direct Physical Interaction -
Answer>> - Most common direct interaction: When 2+
IV solutions are mixed together (can cause a precipitate
to form)

- If a precipitate is formed, the mixture should be
discarded and NOT administered to a patient

- Always consult a compatibility chart when mixing drug
solutions

- Direct drug interactions are more common when
mixing medication (outside of a patient) but may occur
following administration (inside a patient)

Direct Physical Interaction - What drug should never be
mixed? - Answer>> - The benzodiazepine drug
diazepam (treats anxiety) should never be mixed with
another drug

- It is insoluble and easily falls out of solution to form a
precipitate

Types of Drug Interactions: Direct Physical Interaction -
Example of a drug interaction inside a patient -
Answer>> - If a patient is given sodium bicarbonate
followed by calcium gluconate, a precipitate may form
in the blood

Types of Drug Interactions: Pharmacokinetic Interaction

- Taking 2+ drugs may change the ADME of 1+ drugs

What is the most common type of drug interaction? -
Answer>> - Pharmacokinetic

- Drugs that affect gastric or
intestinal pH can alter drug
absorption

- i.e. antacids

Types of Drug Interactions: Pharmacokinetic Interaction
(Absorption - Altered pH) - Antacids - Answer>> - Most
common: Antacids

- Antacids increase gastric pH and therefore increase
the absorption of drugs that are weak bases (non-
ionized) and decrease the absorption of drugs that are
weak acids (ionized)

- Antacids can also affect the absorption of enteric
coated drugs

- Enteric coated drugs are designed to pass through the
acidic stomach without dissolution (dissolution begins
in the more alkaline intestine)

- When an antacid is taken, it increases the pH of the
stomach and therefore promotes premature dissolution
of enteric coated drugs

Types of Drug Interactions: Pharmacokinetic Interaction
(Absorption - Altered pH) - What are the consequences
of premature dissolution of enteric coated drugs? -
Answer>> 1. If you give a patient an antacid first, the
pH of the stomach will rise and promote the premature
dissolution of enteric coated tablets

2. If this drug causes toxicity or damage to the lining of
the stomach, the patient will have stomach symptoms
