patient or for their toxic effects on regulatory processes in parasites infecting the
patient.
2. Medical pharmacology, which is often defined as the science of substances used to
may screen every patient for a variety of such differences before prescribing a drug.

system.
19. A lymphokine is a cytokine produced by a lymphocyte. ILs 2-6 and TNF- are examples of

21. Phase II metabolites are much more polar than their parents. Thus, phase I
metabolites are more likely to retain some lipid solubility and are more likely to cross
cellular membranes.
22. It is unusual for a single metabolite to be excreted for a given drug. Most drugs yield a
mixture of metabolites. Because of the high polarity and subsequent high excretion of
conjugation of the carboxyl group with glycine, conjugation of the carboxyl group with
glucuronic acid with the formation of an ester glucuronide, hydrolysis of the acetate
ester, and conjugation of the phenol group (resulting from hydrolysis of the acetate
aminosalicylic acid and sulfapyridine in the body. This reaction occurs by reductive
cleavage of the “azo” linkage contained in the sulfasalazine molecule and is catalyzed
the intact drug is not absorbed from the stomach or upper intestine and reaches the
colon, where it is metabolized. Sulfasalazine is one of a few drugs that are effective for

hypotension.
33. Pilocarpine acts directly at the muscarinic receptor.
34. Dipivefrin eventually activates alpha 2-receptors.
35. Dipivefrin is diacetylated epinephrine, which is readily metabolized to epinephrine to
activate alpha 2-receptors on the ciliary body to reduce the production of aqueous
humor.
36. Timolol blocks Beta-receptors.
37. Echothiophate inhibits the metabolism of ACh, indirectly increasing levels of the
endogenous neurotransmitter.
38. Tamsulosin is an alpha 1A-selective antagonist that may be used in place of finasteride
action potential.
They dilate peripheral arterioles and reduce total peripheral resistance.
They are useful in treating vasospastic angina.
adverse effects include bradycardia, dry cough and edema

Birth defects and fetal demise if taken during the second and third trimesters of
pregnancy.

59. Overdose. An intentional exposure with the intent of causing self-injury or death.
60. Toxidromes. A group of signs, symptoms, and laboratory findings that suggest a specific
ingestion.
61. Thermal sterilization involves the use of either moist or dry heat.
62. Moist-heat sterilization is the most widely used and reliable sterilization method.
Microorganisms are destroyed by cellular protein coagulation.
The objects to be sterilized are exposed to saturated steam under 1 atmosphere
sterilization. Objects are subjected to a temperature of at least 160°C for 120 mins (if
moisture.
Residual gas must be allowed to dissipate aft er sterilization and before use of the
sterile product.
65. Pregnancy tests detect pregnancy by the presence in the urine of human chorionic
gonadotropin (hCG), which is secreted after fertilization. Many pregnancy test kits can
detect hCG 1 day after missed menses. False-positive results can occur if the patient
takes the test too early, is taking fertility medications (e.g., hCG), or has ovarian cysts. If a
patient uses a household container or a waxed cup to collect urine, it may affect the test
results. Patients should be referred to the appropriate health care provider if they
receive a positive result or two negative results 7 days apart and have not had menses.
66. Milrinone lactate and amrinone lactate are classified as inotropic agents. They are
used only parenterally for the short-term treatment of congestive heart failure (CHF).

68. Alteplase and reteplase are tissue plasminogen activators prepared by recombinant
agent. Its ability to produce excess hair growth (hirsutism, hypertrichosis) has led to its
because of their saline cathartic action on the GI tract. They may also cause
the GI absorption of carbohydrates, they are best taken three times a day with the first

75. Thiazide diuretics such as hydrochlorothiazide increase the renal excretion of sodium,
chloride, and potassium while decreasing the excretion of calcium and uric acid.
76. Dalteparin sodium is a low molecular-weight heparin derivative used in preventing or
inhibiting the last two steps in uric acid biosynthesis that are catalyzed by xanthine
oxidase.
Used in treatment of primary hyperuricemia of gout and hyperuricemia
drug. V= V(max).
81. Phase I reactions convert lipophilic molecules into more polar ones by introducing or
endogenous substrate, such as glucuronic acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, or an amino
acid, results in polar, usually more water-soluble compounds that are most often
therapeutically inactive.
