Drug Interactions
Single drug
 Cumulative
 2 different drugs
 Additive
 physiological antagonism
 potentiation ~

Drug Interactions
Cumulative
 single drug
 Additive
 2 different drugs
 as if adding individual drug effects
 Potentiation
 2 different drugs
 combined effect greatly enhanced
 as if multiplying individual effects ~

Single Drug
Cumulative
 repeated administration
 before drug completely eliminated
  blood concentration
 Timing
 half-life important
 Time course different
 Subjective effects
 blood concentrtions ~

Cumulative Effects

Time
Multiple Drug Interactions
Physiological antagonism
 drugs have opposing effects
 Additive effects
 drugs have same effects
 Potentiation
 synergistic
 greater than expected by individual
drug effects ~


Chronic Use: Tolerance
After repeated use
 Decreased response to the same dose
 Compensatory responses
 Not at a uniform rate
 different for each drug effect ~

Types of Tolerance
Tachyphylaxis
 rapid & transient
st 2 doses
 usually between 1
 NT depletion, receptors occupied
 Drug Disposition Tolerance
 enzyme induction ~

Types of Tolerance
Pharmacodynamic Tolerance
 decreased NT synthesis
 Down-regulation of receptors
 Behavioral Tolerance
 Volitional vs. Associative
 Cross Tolerance
 tolerance to 1 drug  also to a 2d
 e.g., alcohol & phenobarbitol ~

Chronic Use: Tolerance
Repeated use:  response to same dose
 Compensatory responses
 Not at a uniform rate
 Tachyphylaxis
 Drug disposition
 Pharmacodynamic
 Behavioral
 Cross-tolerance~

Chronic Use: Sensitization
Increased response to a repeated dose
 Reverse tolerance
 Cocaine & amphetamine
 motor activation
 Don’t know mechanism
 conditioning involved
 increased NT & receptor synthesis? ~

Tolerance / Sensitization
Tolerance for CNS depressants?
 Sensitization for CNS stimulants?
 It depends!
 Alcohol: both
 Cocaine: both

 ADHD & ritalin
 stimulant to treat hyperactivity? ~

Different Effects, Same Dose
Why?
 initial activity of system
 Low activity in system
 drug increases effects
 High activity in system
 drug may decrease effects ~

hi
Should you take a drug?
Rational judgment process
 But often not
 Many factors involved

 Classical & Operant Conditioning ~
