Clinical Implications of Enzyme Induction and Inhibition Patients are often given several drugs at the same time. The possibility that one drug may accelerate or inhibit the metabolism of another drug should always be kept in mind. When this phenomenon occurs, the removal of an enzyme inducer could be hazardous. The following examples reveal the consequence of enzyme induction. Phenylbutazone is an analgesic, antipyretic, uricosuric, and antiinflammatory agent. Among its side effects are activation of peptic ulcer and gastrointestinal hemorrhage.
45 mEq of Ca2+/ml. Duration of Action If a long duration of action is desirable, one may administer a drug either continuously or in a long-acting form, or both. For example, in treating pneumococcal meningitis, 20 to 40 million units of penicillin G are either given daily by constant-infusion drip or divided into doses and given by intravenous bolus at 2- to 3-h intervals. 4%, is designed for deep intramuscular injection and slow absorption from the site of injection. Nature of the Drugs Proteinaceous drugs, such as insulin for diabetes mellitus, growth hormone for hypopituitary dwarfism, and oxytocin in dysfunctional labor, are destroyed in the stomach, and therefore are not given orally.
The percentage of protein binding of drugs at therapeutic levels varies dramatically. Some drugs such as allopurinol, heparin, and isoniazid do not become bound. Other drugs such as antipyrine, ethambutol, and theophylline become bound to the extent of only 4 to 15%. Several drugs such as ampicillin (25%) and digoxin (23%) show low protein binding; some drugs such as 7 atropine (50%) and meperidine (40%) show moderate protein binding, and some drugs such as carbamazepine (72%), furosemide (75%), nitrofurantoin (70%), and rifampin (85%) show high degrees of protein binding.
