Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic (PK-PD) Changes In Elderly
2
PHARMACOKINETICS (PK)
ABSORPTION: process of drug entering blood stream
DISTRIBUTION : dispersion/dissemination of drug to fluids and tissue in body
METABOLISM : irreversible conversion of parent compounds to metabolites
EXCRETION : elimination of metabolites from body
3
PK CHANGES IN ELDERLY Absorption
PO Meds
-Vitamin B12, Calcium and iron have absorption
in elderly due to gastric pH or GI motility
-Patients with heart failure may have blood flow
to the GIT, leading to absorption
Topical
-Skin atrophies with aging reduced blood flow,
impaired transdermal absorption
IM/SC meds
-Elderly have muscle mass poorer perfusion
4 Delafuente et al. Consult Pharm 2008
PK CHANGES IN ELDERLY
Distribution
- total body water Affects water-soluble drugs (eg digoxin, theophylline, morphine) due to Vd Higher serum drug concentrations
- muscle mass Distribution to lean tissue is smaller Lower doses required
-Higher body fat Affects lipid soluble drugs (eg phenytoin,valproate, diazepam) as they have larger Vd Longer duration of action as they are bound to the body longer
-Lower dose or frequency interval required
5 Delafuente et al. Consult Pharm 2008
PK CHANGES IN ELDERLY
Distribution
- albumin concentrations (malnourished/frail/prolonged illness) More unbound drugs Higher serum concentrations of free drug
-Uremic toxins protein binding
affinity for drugs (eg penicillins,
phenytoin,Theophylline) = free
(unbound)drug concentrations
6
Delafuente et al. Consult Pharm 2008
PK CHANGES IN ELDERLY
Metabolism
-Drugs undergoes metabolism in the liver via Phase 1 and Phase 2 reactions
-Aging causes liver to be smaller poorer liver blood perfusion
-Phase 1 (oxidation/reduction/hydrolysis) liver metabolism is in older patients
-CYP system is responsible for Phase 1 reactions of many medications. >50% of drugs undergo CYP3A4 metabolism
-Phase 2 reactions : not affected with aging
7 Delafuente et al. Consult Pharm 2008
PK CHANGES IN ELDERLY
Elimination
-as CrCl drug clearance by tubular secretion and glomerular filtration
-Renal function may be “overestimated” due to low muscle mass
8 Delafuente et al. Consult Pharm 2008
PD CHANGES IN ELDERLY
-Blunted baroreflex responses
- inotropic and chronotropic responses to β1adrenergic stimulation
-Increased sensitivity to agents that act on the central nervous system (CNS)
9 Delafuente et al. Consult Pharm 2008
ADJUSTING MEDICATIONS IN GERIATRIC CKD
-General rule of thumb: Start low, Go s l o w
-Avoid long acting agents in elderly
-Some dosage adjustments may be based on CrCl (derived from Cockcroft-Gault equation) or eGFR
-Beers Criteria
