Three or more compartments
Two compartment
Since there are three phases, a two compartment model with
Three phases
Beta (β) post-distribution phase
Alpha (α) distribution phase
Absorption phase
Since there's a two exponent equation and two phases, a two component model is needed
Cp = A * e ^ -αt + B * e ^ -βt
Terms
B & Beta (β) = associated with drug after distribution
A & Alpha (α) = associated with drug distribution
Since there's two phases, a two exponent equation is needed
Two phases, alpha (α) and beta (β)
Beta phase is after some time when the line becomes straight and distribution equilibrium has been reached
Alpha phase is the first part of the curve (curvilinear) and is where the drug is being distributed in the body
One compartment
Extravascular
Intravenous bolus
Plasma concentration (Cp) versus time (SL)
One compartment is appropriate because there is a single phase in the concentration versus time plot and one exponential term in the equation
Cp = (Cp)₀ * e ^ -Kt
(Cp)₀ = plasma concentration at time = 0
Cp = plasma concentration at any time, t
The straight line also suggests distribution is instantaneous
IV administration means there's no absorption phase
The straight line indicates there's only one pharmacokinetic phase, in this case, elimination
The selection of a compartment model depends solely upon the distribution characteristics of a drug following its administration
Depends on availability of plasma concentration versus time data
Physicochemical properties of a drug
How sensitive the analysis of concentration in plasma is
How often plasma samples are taken
The terms rapid and slow distribution refer to the time required to attain distribution equilibrium for the drug in the body
Distribution equilibrium
When distribution equilibrium is attained, the rate of transfer between the blood and tissue and vice versa is equal
Slow distribution
Suggests that the vasculature, tissues, and organs are not behaving the same way towards the drug
The body must be considered as two or more compartments
In this type of model, the rate of drug transfer from compartment 1 to 2 and vice versa becomes equal at at time greater than zero (from several minutes to hours)
Compartments
The tissues that are not highly perfused like the bones, cartilage, fatty tissue, and many others can be pooled together as one compartment
Highly perfused systems like the liver and kidneys may be pooled together with the blood in one compartment
Suggests the distribution equilibrium is attained slowly and at a finite time (from several minutes to a few hours, depending on drug)
Generally, the slower the drug distribution characteristics of a drug, regardless of the route of administration, the greater the number of compartments required to characterize the plasma concentration versus time data and the more complex the nature of the equation employed
Rapid distribution
All organs and tissues are behaving similarly towards the drug
Suggests the rate of transfer between blood and tissues reaches equilibrium instantaneously after administration
If a drug is rapidly distributed following its administration, a one-compartment model will do an adequate job of accurately and adequately characterizing the plasma concentration versus time data
Used in pharmacokinetics when it is necessary to describe the plasma concentration versus time data adequately and accurately
Provides the desired plasma concentration and duration of action for an administered drug
Allows accurate estimates of selected fundamental pharmacokinetics parameters like the apparent volume of drug distribution, the elimination half life, and the elimination rate constant of a drug
The body is conceived to be composed of mathematically interconnected compartments
The complexity of ADME makes it necessary to sometimes assume a simplified model
The most useful model in pharmacokinetics
Principle of passive diffusion and the relationship between the rate of transfer and the administered dose of a drug
Plasma concentration versus time (RL) following oral administration of an identical dose of a drug via identical dosage forms with different formulations
The entire administered dose of a drug may not always reach general circulation (i.e. incomplete absorption)
The onset of action is determined by factors such as formulation and type of dosage form, route of administration, physicochemical properties of drug, and other physiological variables
An absorption phase is present
Inhalation
Rectal
Subcutaneous
Intramuscular
Oral
Sublingual or buccal
Transdermal
Intravenous
Intra-arterial
Adverse reactions are difficult to reverse or control
Accuracy in calculations and administration of drug dose is critical
The route is used more often in life-threatening situations
The entire administered dose is available to produce pharmacologic effects
There is immediate onset of action
There is no absorption phase
When the distinction is undesirable or unclear, disposition is the term used
Distinction between elimination and distribution
Excretion
Other organs
Mother's milk (for infants)
Drug may be consumed in sufficient quantity to affect the infant
Not a significant route of elimination for mother
Lungs
Occasionally may be important for the elimination of substances with a high vapor pressure (e.g. gaseous anesthetics, alcohol, etc.)
Principal organs
Kidney
Primary site for removal of a drug in a chemically unaltered or unchanged form (i.e. excretion) as well as for metabolites
Liver
Primary organ where drug metabolism occurs
The irreversible loss of a drug in a chemically unchanged or unaltered form
Controlled and determined by the physicochemical properties and chemical structures of a drug molecule
The permeability of tissue membranes to the drug molecule
How well the tissues and/or organs are perfused with blood
The binding of a drug to plasma proteins and tissue components
Any drug that leaves the site of measurement and does not return has undergone elimination
F * Dose = FX₀ = (AUC)₀∞ * KV
The amount of drug that reaches general circulation is the product of the bioavailability fraction (F) and the dose administered
Dose = X₀ = (AUC)₀∞ * KV
V = (or Vd) drug's volume of distribution
The apparent volume into which a given mass of drug would need to be diluted in order to give the observed concentration
K = first-order elimination rate constant
(AUC)₀∞ = area under curve of plasma drug concentration versus time (AUC) from time zero to time infinity
The amount of drug that reaches general circulation is the dose administered
