Clinical Pharmacology Essentials

This document discusses the importance of clinical pharmacology in rational drug use and therapy. It defines clinical pharmacology as combining pharmacology expertise with clinical expertise to improve drug benefits and safety. The goals of clinical pharmacology are effective, safe, and rational therapy. Key aspects covered include pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), and factors influencing drug concentrations. TDM involves measuring plasma drug levels to assess dosage adequacy and toxicity risk. Reasons for TDM and examples of drugs monitored are provided.

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM)

1. Narrow margin of safety drugs


2. Drugs for prevention/ therapy of life threatening
diseases or life saving drugs
3. Difficulty in ditinguishing between the effects
of a disease and the toxic effects of a drug
4. Potent drugs drug amount is very small
5. Drugs that show variability of drug conc.
in plasma

Factors that modify drug plasma


concentration for a given dose

Drug formulation
Drug interaction
Environmental factors
Genetic variation
Renal and hepatic function

Reasons for monitoring


drug treatment

1. To see whether there is


therapeutic response
2. To assess drug toxicity
3. To assess compliance
