Pharmacology Principles: 3 questions
Pharmacodynamics – effect of drugs on body. Works by receptors. Usually proteins that interact with
drugs.
Agonist – produce receptor stimulation, conformational change every time they bind.
Partial agonist – properties between agonists and antagonists. Submaximal effect. Stimulate only some
of the receptors.
Antagonist – affinity for receptor but NO intrinsic activity. Affinity allows antagonist to bind to receptors,
but lack of intrinsic activity prevents receptor activation. Blocks action of drugs (example Narcan).
Therapeutic range – between minimum effective concentration and toxic concentration. Working
effectivity with no toxicity or adverse effects. Wider therapeutic range is better! Easiest to control.
