Biopharmaceutical aspects of drug administration.

The design of a dosage form 2

excipients -> hulpstoffen
Technology: You have to formulate that specific pharmaceutical ingredient into a dosage form -> a
drug product (Tablets, ear drop, injection, inhalation etc. those are typically forms of
administration). The composition or the intern structure of a drug product is determined by two
different aspects The technology -> how can we in a reproducible and true-liable way administer
the drug of a appropriate quality to the patient. The technological objectives (doelen) are Process
control, stability and reproducibility.
The other aspect is the Biopharmaceutical -> the drug product will all end up in a patient and there
will be an interaction of the dosage form containing the drug with the living organism. It is important
of the product will deliver it in a propriety way. There are three biopharmaceutical objectives: The
release profile, the route of administration and targeting. Based on these two objectives you design
a dosage form -> a form which means a structure which consist of the active pharmaceutical
agreement and other forms. After production it will lead to the dosage form which can be
administer to the patients either directly or via a device and this leads to a therapeutic effect.

Drug therapy and Biopharmacy
The therapeutic effect of the drug is determined first of all by the intrinsic pharmacologic activity of
the active pharmaceutical ingredient. That can be the positive side which is the therapeutic effect
but there can also be a negative effect which are the side effects (toxicological) of the drug.
The drug often has a therapeutic effect but does also have often some side effects.
The therapeutic efficacy of a ’’drug substance’’ (active pharmaceutical ingredient) is determined by:
- The intrinsic (innerlijk) pharmacological and toxicological (side effects) properties of the
substance (receptor interaction).
- The extend and rate of delivery of the substance to the site of action (transport rate). Determined
by:
1. The extend and rate of drug release from the dosage form.
2. The site of release of the drug substance from the dosage form.
3. The transport of the drug substance from its site of absorption (drug is taken up by the blood)
to site of action.

The points 1, 2 and 3 are determined by:
- The physics-chemical properties of the drug substance. (solubility->oplosbaarheid, log P->
whether it dissolves (oplost) in an oil or in a water.
- The physics-chemical properties of dosage form. (Putting a drug in an oily or in a aquas (water)
base)
- The structure of dosage from. (put a polymer around a tablet it will prevent drug release or
increase the drug release and if you put the polymers dispersed (verspreid) in the tablet there
will be no difference and there will hardly be an effect.
- The site of drug release from the dosage form.
- The route of drug administration.

The drug has to dissolve because otherwise the drug is too big to pass the
membrane. After the drug is taken up by the blood it enters your blood flow/
circulation either directly or via the lymfe and the drug is distributed over the
body and when the drug is at the site of action it can work either directly or
via a receptor depending on the type of action of the drug.
There are some exceptions if you take a drug which is intravenously
injected drugs it will be directly in the blood circulation. The drug you inject
intravenously should be in a solution because non-dissolved drugs would
leas the embolism which is deadly.
Exceptions: will not be taken up by the blood but directly injected ->
intravenously injected drugs, targeted drugs, locally applied and locally
acting drugs (dermal->huid or nasal->neus drugs) -> don’t need a blood
flow.

Pharmacokinetics: What happens with a drug in the body?
Pharmacokinetics: What does the body with the drug after the drug is administered? How good is
the drug absorbed? How well will the drug after administration get into the blood circulation and be
distributed over the body and can act in their. After the drug is taken up it will be distributed over
the body and depending on the physical properties of a drug this distribution may be different.
There are two steps to get rid of the drug which is first metabolism -> chemical processes mostly
catalyzed by enzymes that will inactivate the drug and the second step is excretion -> How are the
drugs or the metabolites excreted from the body. There are more pathways of excretion for
example via the urine or bile… etc.


ADME:
-Absorption: Uptake of the drug in the systemic blood circulation
-Distribution: The distribution of the drug to the different
compartments (fluids, organs) in the body
-Metabolism: The chemical conversion of drug substance by the body
(often by enzymes) to different active or inactive substances
(metabolites).
-Excretion: The removal of the drug or its metabolites from the body,
via urine, bile (gal), sweat or breath.

These steps determines the behavior of the drug in the body.

Pharmacokinetics after intravenous injection.
There is a distribution phase and at that point there are high concentration in the blood because
the drug has not been completely distributed over the entire body. At a certain moment the blood
has been pumped to the entire body and the drug is been distributed over the entire body. The
drug is distributed in the blood vessels, veins and also in the tissues. After that we see a
logarithmic decrease in concentration of the drug in the blood. That is because there is metabolism
or excretion. It is a first order elimination process. The decrease of drug concentration is fast so the
half time is short.

For most drug activities you need a certain plasma or blood level of the drug in the blood otherwise

The drug absorption process
Absorption: only dissolved drugs may be able to pass the absorption membranes. Only dissolved
drugs pass the membrane other drugs not.

may expect an effect of the drug. However we can not

are no drugs without side effects. There is also a
maximal tolerable concentration and you should stay
below that level otherwise there occur side-effects.
