Principles of Pharmacology Quizlet Questions
Question 1 of 5
Increased binding of drugs to plasma proteins
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Increased binding of drugs to plasma proteins leads to a decrease in the concentration of free drug available for elimination. This results in a longer half-life of the drug as it takes longer for the bound drug to be released and metabolized. This does not directly impact drug-drug interactions or renal filtration, as binding to plasma proteins affects the distribution and elimination of the drug. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
Question 2 of 5

Question 5 of 5
Which of the following terms best defines the tested drug?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The tested drug is best defined as a noncompetitive antagonist, which binds irreversibly to the receptor site and prevents the activation of the receptor by the endogenous ligand. This property distinguishes noncompetitive antagonists from other types of drugs and is important in understanding their mechanism of action and therapeutic effects.
