Cellular reservoirs
- Fat
- Bones
- Trans cellular fluid
- Sites with active transport of
drugs and tissues with affinity to
drugs. Vary with the type of drug.
Eg, liver, kidney, etc
Fat as reservoir
-Many lipid soluble drugs are stored in
by physical solution in neutral fat.
-A stable reservoir due to relatively low
blood flow.
Difficulty to predict lipophilic drug
distribution in obese individuals.
Eg, blockers, barbiturate thiopental.
Bone:
Tetracycline antibiotics and heavy metals adsorb
onto bone surface and eventually to crystal
lattice.
Reservoir for slow release toxic agents e.g. lead
or radium .Their effects persist long after their
exposure has stopped.

Redistribution
The redistribution from site of action to
other sites cause termination of drug effect
before drug withdrawal.
Primarily seen when a highly lipid soluble
drug that acts on brain or cardiovascular
system
is
administered
rapidly
by
intravenous injection or inhalation.
As the I V administration is ceased once
attaining the peak concentration in the
desired tissue, the drug diffuses to other
tissues
like
muscles.

Volume of Distribution:
-Relates to the amount of drug in the body
to the concentration of drug in blood
/plasma depending on the fluid volume.
The blood plasma volume of a 70kg man
is considered to be 3l
blood volume is 5.5l.
The extracellular fluid volume 12l
total body water is 42l.

system
-Heme containing membrane protein found in
smooth endoplasmic reticulum of numerous
tissues.
-catalyzes wide range of oxidative and reductive
reactions.
-the xenobiotic substrates reacts with the Fe3+ of
the cytochrome P450 and form enzyme substrate
complex and thereafter further reactions of
biotransformation proceeds. Electons from NADPH
is utilized by it.
- 12 gene families have been identified for
cytochrome P450 enzyme and a number of
Hydrolytic enzymes:
- Found in endoplasamic reticulum of
human liver intestine and other tissues.
- The alcohol and amine group exposed
following the hydrolysis of esters and
amines are the substrates.
Conjugation Reactions
- Hallmark of phase 2.
- Most significant is glucuronidation
following which there is increased water
solubility and promotes drug elimination
through urine.
- conjugation of electrophilic metabolites of
xenobiotics with tripeptides of glutathione
is the major detoxification pathway for
drugs and carcinogens.

The activity of most of the drug

Age and renal function
Neonates low renal function low in the
beginning which matures rapidly.
In adulthood the renal function gradually
declines approx 1% per year.
Elderly- substantial rate of renal impairment.
