Slide 2-

Drug interactions- objectives Discuss Pharmacokinetic interactions List Pharmacodynamic interactions Comment on common Drug- Food interactions
Slide 3-

Drug interactions It is the modification of the effect of one drug (the object drug ) by the prior or concomitant administration of another (precipitant drug).
Slide 4-

Drug interaction – risk factor Poly pharmacy Multiple prescribers Multiple pharmacies Genetic make up Specific population like . elderly, obese, criticaly ill patient Specific illness E.g. Hepatic disease, Renal dysfunction, Narrow therapeutic index drugs Digoxin, Insulin, Lithium , Antidepressant, Warfarin
Slide 5-

Consequences of drug interactions Loss of therapeutic effect Toxicity Unexpected increase in pharmacological activity Beneficial effects e.g additive & potentiation (intended) or antagonism (unintended). 5) Chemical or physical interaction e.g I.V incompatibility in fluid or syringes mixture
Slide 6-

Mechanisms of drug interactions Pharmacokinetics Pharmacodynamics Pharmacokinetics involve the effect of a drug on another drug kinetic that includes absorption ,distribution , metabolism and excretion. Pharmacodynamics are related to the pharmacological activity of the interacting drugs E.g., synergism , antagonism, altered cellular transport effect on the receptor site.
Slide 7-

Pharmacokinetic interactions 1) Altered GIT absorption. Altered pH Altered bacterial flora formation of drug chelates or complexes drug induced mucosal damage altered GIT motility. Altered pH; The non-ionized form of a drug is more lipid soluble and more readily absorbed from GIT than the ionized form does.
Slide 8-

Ex1., antacids Decrease the tablet dissolution of Ketoconazole (acidic) Ex2., H2 antagonists Therefore, these drugs must be separated by at least 2h in the time of administration of both .
Slide 9-

b) Altered intestinal bacterial flora ; EX., 40% or more of the administered digoxin dose is metabolised by the intestinal flora. Antibiotics kill a large number of the normal flora of the intestine Increase digoxin conc. and increase its toxicity
Slide 10-

c) Complexation or chelation; EX1., Tetracycline interacts with iron preparations or Milk (Ca2+ ) Unabsorpable complex Ex2., Antacid (aluminum or magnesium) hydroxide Decrease absorption of ciprofloxacin by 85% due to chelation
Slide 11-

d) Drug-induced mucosal damage. Antineoplastic agents e.g., cyclophosphamide vincristine procarbazine Inhibit absorption of several drugs eg., digoxin e) Altered motility Metoclopramide (antiemitic) Increase absorption of cyclosporine due to the increase of stomach empting time Increase the toxicity of cyclosporine
Slide 12-

f) Displaced protein binding It depends on the affinity of the drug to plasma protein. The most likely bound drugs is capable to displace others. The free drug is increased by displacement by another drug with higher affinity. Phenytoin is a highly bound to plasma protein (90%), Tolbutamide (96%), and warfarin (99%) Drugs that displace these agents are Aspirin Sulfonamides phenylbutazone
Slide 13-

g) Altered metabolism The effect of one drug on the metabolism of the other is well documented. The liver is the major site of drug metabolism but other organs can also do e.g., WBC,skin,lung, and GIT. CYP450 family is the major metabolizing enzyme in phase I (oxidation process). Therefore, the effect of drugs on the rate of metabolism of others can involve the following examples.
Slide 14-

E.g., Enzyme induction A drug may induce the enzyme that is responsible for the metabolism of another drug or even itself e.g., Carbamazepine (antiepileptic drug ) increases its own Metabolism. Phenytoin increases hepatic metabolism of theophylline Leading to decrease its level Reduces its action and Vice versa N.B enzyme induction involves protein synthesis .Therefore, it needs time up to 3 weeks to reach a maximal effect
Slide 15-

Eg., Enzyme inhibition; It is the decrease of the rate of metabolism of a drug by another one . This will lead to the increase of the concentration of the target drug and leading to the increase of its toxicity . Inhibition of the enzyme may be due to the competition on its binding sites , so the onset of action is short may be within 24h. When an enzyme inducer ( e.g. carbamazepine) is administered with an inhibitor (verapamil) The effect of the inhibitor will be predominant
Slide 16-

Ex.,Erythromycin inhibit metabolism of astemazole and terfenadine Increase the serum conc. of the antihistaminic leading to increasing the life threatening cardiotoxicity
Slide 17-

Onset of drug interaction It may be seconds up to weeks for example in case of enzyme induction, it needs weeks for protein synthesis, while enzyme inhibition occurs rapidly.
Slide 18-

Renal excretion: Active tubular secretion It occurs in the proximal tubules. The drug combines with a specific protein to pass through the proximal tubules. When a drug has a competitive reactivity to the protein that is responsible for active transport of another drug .This will reduce such a drug excretion increasing its con. and hence its toxicity. EX., Probenecid ….. Decreases tubular secretion of methotrexate.
Slide 19-

* Passive tubular reabsorption; Excretion and reabsorption of drugs occur in the tubules By passive diffusion which is regulated by concentration and lipid solubility. Ionized drugs are reabsorbed lower than non-ionized ones Ex1., Sod.bicarb. Increases lithium clearance and decreases its action Ex2., Antacids Increases salicylates clearance and decreases its action
Slide 20-

It means alteration of the dug action without change in its serum concentration by pharmacokinetic factors. EX., Propranolol + verapamil Synergistic or additive effect Pharmacodynamic interaction Additive effect : 1 + 1 =2 Synergistic effect : 1 +1 > 2 Potentiation effect : 1 + 0 =2 Antagonism : 1-1 = 0
Slide 21-

Drug-Food interactions Grapefruit juice and Terfenadine Grapefruit juice and cyclosporin Grapefruit juice and felodipine Grapefruit contains : furanocoumarin compounds that can selectively inhibit CYP3A4
Slide 22-

Changes in diet may alter drug action Theophylline: a high protein, low CHO diet can enhance clearance of this and other drugs MAO inhibitors Warfarin (anticoagulant) Alcohol with CNS-suppressant drugs may produce excessive drowsiness Phenytoin increases metabolism of vitamin D, vitamin K, and folic acid. Carbamazepine may affect metabolism of vitamin D, and folic acid, leading to possible depletion
Slide 23-

Management of an adverse interaction Dose related events may be managed by changing the dose of the affected drug. Eg.,when miconazole oral gel causes an increase in bleeding time of warfarin then reducing the warfarin dose will bring the bleeding time back into range and reduce the risk of haemorrhage It is important to retitrate the dose of warfarin when the course of miconazole is complete.
Slide 24-

The potential severity of some interaction require immediate Cessation of the combination. Eg,.the combination of erythromycin and terfenadine can produse high terfenadine level with the risk of developing Torsades de Pointes. Dose spacing is appropriate for interaction involving the inhibition of absorption in the GI tract . Eg.,avoidig the binding of ciprofloxacin by ferrous salts
