as we age, stomach acid increases, become more alkaline? increase/decrease? need more explanation, please.

[@markeftehia-yn8bd]

Hi! as per my research and understanding, the absorption of medication can be affected by the pH of stomach acid. So if the pH of stomach acid is acidic or alkaline, it can impair the absorption because certain medications needs like specific pH level for proper absorption and distribution. correct me if im wrong. Thank u!

next week we will be learning about oxygenation and perfusion. Does your pharmacology deck have anything on this im a visual learner

[@LevelUpRN]

Check out Meris's videos in the Fundamentals: Practice & Skills playlist for information on oxygenation and perfusion!

Does the pharmacology deck have the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics in them as well

[@LevelUpRN]

Pharmacokinetics is covered in our Pharm Basics deck. Pharmacology edition 2 just contains medications.

[@Itz_Moonlightluv]

@@LevelUpRN o okay I already purchase the other cards awhile back and did not know this deck was for the basics 🤦🏾‍♀️.

[@megan2171]

I may be confused by what you are saying about plasma protein binding. Please clarify the following; Are you saying that medications need to be bound to a plasma protein to be distributed? That does not align with anything else that I have read. For instance, "Albumin is the most prevalent protein in plasma and the most important of the proteins to which drugs bind. ONLY UNBOUND (FREE) DRUG MOLECULES CAN LEAVE THE VASCULAR SYSTEM. BOUND MOLECULES ARE TOO LARGE TO FIT THROUGH THE PORES IN THE CAPILARRY WALL" Pharmacotherapeutics for Advance Practice Nurses and Physician Assistants edition 2. Or are you referring to a transport system called P-glycoprotein (PGP), a transmembrane protein that transports a large variety of drugs out of cells?

[@nartron3000]

i still dont understand, if you ingest a pill and it is absorbed into hepatic portal vein and then carried to the liver (First pass), isn't that absorption then metabolism, then after it leaves the liver and goes throughout the body it is distributed? i am having a hard time understanding this.

[@britneybaby636]

I don’t understand the first question 😢
