Factors Affecting Drug Interactions
Factors Affecting Drug Interactions ( 10 Questions)
A patient has been prescribed two drugs with one being an agonist and another being a partial agonist at the same receptor. What will be their combined effect?
An increasing agonist’s action will not occur as a partial agonist will decrease an agonist’s action by competing for binding at the same receptor and producing a submaximal response.
Decreasing agonist’s action will occur due to competition for binding at the same receptor by a partial agonist and producing a submaximal response.
No change will not occur as a partial agonist will decrease an agonist’s action by competing for binding at the same receptor and producing a submaximal response.
Increasing a partial agonist’s action will not occur as a partial agonist will decrease an agonist’s action by competing for binding at the same receptor and producing a submaximal response.
A partial agonist will decrease an agonist’s action by competing for binding at the same receptor and producing a submaximal response.
a. Increasing agonist’s action will not occur as a partial agonist will decrease an agonist’s action by competing for binding at the same receptor and producing a submaximal response.
b. Decreasing agonist’s action will occur due to competition for binding at the same receptor by a partial agonist and producing a submaximal response.
c. No change will not occur as a partial agonist will decrease an agonist’s action by competing for binding at the same receptor and producing a submaximal response.
d. Increasing partial agonist’s action will not occur as a partial agonist will decrease an agonist’s action by competing for binding at the same receptor and producing a submaximal response.
