Basic PharmacokineticsPrepared by: Ana Marie L. Rubenicia1st Sem - SY 2014-2015

Biopharmaceutics is the study of the relation of the physical and chemical properties of a drug to its bioavailability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic and toxicologic effects.Pharmacokinetics is currently defined as the study of the time course of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Pharmacodynamics is thestudyofhowadrugactsonalivingorganism,includingthepharmacologicresponseandthedurationandmagnitudeofresponseobservedrelativetotheconcentrationofthedrugatanactivesiteintheorganism.

Design and Optomization of Dosage RegimenBioavailability and BioequivalenceBIOAVAILABILITY AND BIOEQUIVALENCE: INTRODUCTIONA multisource drug product is a drug product that contains the same active drug substance in the same dosage form and is marketed by more than one pharmaceutical manufacturer.

A single-source drug products are drug products for which the patent has not yet expired or has certain exclusivities so that only one can make it. Single-source drug products are usually brand-name (innovator) drug products.BIOAVAILABILITY AND BIOEQUIVALENCE: INTRODUCTIONAfter the patent and other exclusivities for the brand-name drug expires, a pharmaceutical firm may manufacture a generic drug product that can be substituted for the branded drug product.

Since the formulation and method of manufacture of the drug product can affect the bioavailability and stability of the drug, the generic drug manufacturer must demonstrate that the generic drug product is bioequivalent and therapeutically equivalent to the brand-name drug product.BIOAVAILABILITY AND BIOEQUIVALENCE: INTRODUCTIONthe U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) publishes annually, in print and on the Internet, Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations, also known as the Orange Book

The Orange Book identifies drug products approved on the basis of safety and effectiveness by the FDA and contains therapeutic equivalence evaluations for approvedmultisource prescription drug products.DEFINITIONSBioavailability means the rate and extent to which the active ingredient or active moiety is absorbed from a drug product and becomes available at the site of action.

Bioequivalent drug products - pharmaceutical equivalent or pharmaceutical alternative products that display comparable bioavailability. The test (generic) and reference listed drug (brand-name)shall be considered bioequivalent if:(1) the rate and extent of absorption of the test drug does not show a significant difference

(2) the extent of absorption of the test drug does not show a significant difference and the difference from the reference drug in the rate of absorption of the drug is intentional.>Bioequivalent drug products may contain different inactive ingredientsDEFINITIONSEquivalence. Relationship in terms of bioavailability, therapeutic response, or a set of established standards of one drug product to another.DEFINITIONSPharmaceutical equivalents. Drug products in identical dosage forms that contain the same active ingredient(s), ie, the same salt or ester, are of the same dosage form, use the same route of administration, and are identical in strength or concentration. Ex- chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, 5-mg capsules

but they may differ in characteristics such as: (1)shape, (2)scoring configuration, (3)release mechanisms, (4) packaging, excipients (including colors, flavors, preservatives), (5) expiration time, and, within certain limits, (5) labeling.DEFINITIONSPharmaceutical alternatives.1. Drug products that contain the same therapeutic moiety but as different salts, esters, or complexes. Ex- tetracycline phosphate or tetracycline hydrochloride equivalent to 250 mg tetracycline base

2. Different dosage forms and strengths within a product line by a single manufacturer are pharmaceutical alternatives . Ex - an extendedrelease dosage form and a standard immediate-release dosage form of the same active ingredient

3. The FDA currently considers a tablet and capsule containing the same active ingredient in the same dosage strength as pharmaceutical alternatives.DEFINITIONSPharmaceutical substitution- the process of dispensing a pharmaceutical alternative for the prescribed drug product. Ex-ampicillin suspension is dispensed in place of ampicillin capsules, or- tetracycline hydrochloride is dispensed in place of tetracycline phosphate.

>Pharmaceutical substitution generally requires the physician's approval.DEFINITIONSBrand name- the trade name of the drug. This name is privately owned by the manufacturer or distributor and is used to distinguish the specific drug product from competitor's products . Ex

- Tylenol, McNeil LaboratoriesDEFINITIONSChemical name. The name used by organic chemists to indicate the chemical structure of the drug. Ex

- N-acetyl-p-aminophenolDEFINITIONSGeneric name. The established, nonproprietary, or common name of the active drug in a drug product. Ex- acetaminophenDEFINITIONSGeneric substitution The process of dispensing a different brand or an unbranded drug product in place of the prescribed drug product. >The substituted drug product contains the same active ingredient or therapeutic moiety as the same salt or ester in the same dosage form but is made by a different manufacturer. ExMotrin brand of ibuprofen might be dispensed by thepharmacist as Advil brand of ibuprofen or as a nonbranded generic ibuprofen if generic substitution is permitted and desired by the physician.

DEFINITIONSAbbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA). Drug manufacturers must file an ANDA for approval to market a generic drug product. The generic manufacturer is not required to perform clinical efficacy studies or nonclinical toxicology studies for the ANDA.

DEFINITIONSDrug product. The finished dosage form (eg, tablet, capsule, or solution) that contains the active drug ingredient, generally, but not necessarily, in association with inactive ingredients.DEFINITIONSTherapeutic equivalents. Drug products are considered to be therapeutic equivalents only if they are pharmaceutical equivalents and if they can be expected to have the same clinical effect and safety profile when administered to patients under the conditions specified in the labeling.DEFINITIONSTherapeutic alternatives. Drug products containing different active ingredients that are indicated for the same therapeutic or clinical objectives. Ex

-ibuprofen is given instead of aspirin-cimetidine may be given instead of ranitidine.DEFINITIONSTherapeutic substitution. The process of dispensing a therapeutic alternative in place of the prescribed drug product. Examoxicillin is dispensed instead of ampicillin ibuprofen is dispensed instead of naproxen. PURPOSE OF BIOAVAILABILITY STUDIESClinical studies are useful in determining the safety and efficacy of drug products. Bioavailability studies are used to define the effect of changes in the physicochemical properties of the drug substance and the effect of the drug product (dosage form) on the pharmacokinetics of the drug. Bioequivalence studies are used to compare the bioavailability of the same drug (same salt or ester) from various drug products.> If the drug products are bioequivalent and therapeutically equivalent , then the clinical efficacy and the safety profile of these drug products are assumed to be similar and may be substituted for each other.Determination of Bioavailability

Factors that influence bioavailabilitya. First-pass hepatic metabolism:

Factors that influence bioavailabilityFirst-pass hepatic metabolism Solubility of the drug. For a drug to be readily absorbed, it must be largely lipophilic, yet have some solubility in aqueous solutions. This is one reason why many drugs are either weak acids or weak bases.Chemical instabilityNature of the drug formulation

RELATIVE AND ABSOLUTE AVAILABILITYRelative AvailabilityRelative (apparent) availability is the availability of the drug from a drug product as compared to a recognized standard.Absolute AvailabilityThe absolute availability of drug is the systemic availability of a drug after extravascular administration (eg, oral, rectal, transdermal, subcutaneous) compared to IV dosing.The absolute bioavailability = FF = 1, or 100%. For drugs given intravascularly, such as by IV bolus injection, F = 1 For all extravascular routes of administration, such as the oral route (PO), the absolute bioavailability F may not exceed 100% (F > 1).Introduction to Pharmacokineticsl.
