The drug concentration on the x-axis is expressed in molar units, representing the number of molecules in each liter of solution. The graded response is expressed as a percentage of maximum effect.

Figure 2–2. Theoretical representation of how drugs produce effects in clinical practice. Drug concentration (x-axis) increases from left to right. Some patients will respond at low dosages, either because of the placebo effect or sensitivity to the drug. As drug concentrations increase, greater numbers of patients will respond favorably but some will also respond adversely. At some dosage or concentration, the presence of toxic effects precludes the use of higher doses in patients.

Receptors Coupled to G Proteins

ACh

Na+

K+

ACh

Figure 2–3. The nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptor comprises five subunits that come together to form an ion channel receptor. When ACh binds to two sites on the receptor, the ion channel opens to let sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+) cross the cell membrane to initiate a response.

Drug

G protein Effector protein

Figure 2–4. G-protein–coupled receptors are proteins that cross the cell membrane 7 times, creating a pocket in which drugs can interact. Bound drugs may stimulate the receptor to release a G protein that can interact with various effector proteins to produce physiological responses.

Figure 2–5. The insulin receptor is prototypical of tyrosine kinase re- ceptors. These receptors are brought together by extracellular drug binding (insulin in the case of the insulin receptor), which activates the intracellular enzyme tyrosine kinase. Tyrosine kinase receptors activate one another by adding a phosphorus (P) to select sites on cellular proteins, which in turn activates a physiological response.

If a drug is confined to plasma (A), then plasma concentra- tion will be higher compared with distribution into extracellular fluid (B) or intracellular fluid (C).

Figure 2–11. Typical effect of metabolism (solid arrows) on drug activity. Prodrugs are metabolized to active drugs that can undergo phase I and phase II metabolism, with metabolites varying in activity, compared with the parent drug, and in solubility, which increases the likelihood of renal elimination. Sometimes metabolism produces unusual effects (dashed arrows), such as drug metabolites that retain drug activity or accumulate in the body.

PRESCRIBING TIPS

A few prescribing tips can help the practitioner reduce environmental facilitation of prescription misuse. First, collect and document a complete history and examina- tion before prescribing controlled substances. Do not rely on patient-supplied history, x-rays, or medical records to confirm your assessment—obtain this information di- rectly from the primary source. Passik and Weinreb (2000) advise use of the four “A’s” to guide initial and on- going assessment of medication efficacy: (1) analgesia measurement by use of pain scales or other assessment tools, (2) activities of daily living (ADLs) as measured by levels of physical and psychological functioning, (3) ad- verse effects, and (4) abuse issues.

Prescribe limited quantities without refills on a first visit, allowing additional time for patient assessment and confirmatory documentation. Educate medical and as- sistive staff in reinforcement of consistent clinic policies and procedures related to scheduling, forms, urine drug screening, records review and release, and refills. It is not uncommon for patients who do misuse substances to quickly identify the “weak link” among the treatment team and focus their energies on this person or process. Standardize expectations regarding after-hours calls, use of multiple providers, and weekend or early refills and post them where they are readily available.

Patients covered by insurance plans, including Med- icaid and Medicare, can be limited to one pharmacy or one prescriber through their payment plan. Case man- agers can often be utilized to help review and manage medication use and advocate for access to additional options for pain management and control. Other tips in- clude prescribing generic, longer-acting formulations of drugs that have less street value and writing out the quantity prescribed rather than using only numerals, which can be altered.

BOX 7–1 RESOURCES FOR CULTURALLY COMPETENT CARE

Center for Cross-Cultural Research

WESTERN WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY

Housed within an integral part of the Department of Psychology at Western Washington University, the Center for Cross- Cultural Research was started in response to the Euro-American bias in psychological theory, research, and practical applica- tions. The mission of the Center for Cross-Cultural Research is to promote culture-related research, offer courses on culture, promote exchange between cultural scientists, and disseminate the results of culture research. http://www.wwu.edu/culture/

Cross Cultural Health Care Program

The mission of the Cross Cultural Health Care Program is to serve as a bridge between communities and health-care institu- tions to ensure full access to quality health care that is culturally and linguistically appropriate. http://www.xculture.org

Diversity Rx

Diversity Rx promotes language and cultural competence to improve the quality of health care for minority, immigrant, and ethnically diverse communities. http://www.diversityrx.org

National Center for Cultural Competence

The mission of the National Center for Cultural Competence (NCCC) is to increase the capacity of health and mental health programs to design, implement, and evaluate culturally and linguistically competent service delivery systems to address growing diversity, persistent disparities, and to promote health and mental health equity. http://nccc.georgetown.edu/

PharmGKB

The PharmGKB is managed by Stanford University and is a pharmacogenomics knowledge resource that encompasses clini- cal information including dosing guidelines and drug labels, potentially clinically actionable gene-drug associations and genotype-phenotype relationships. PharmGKB collects, curates and disseminates knowledge about the impact of human ge- netic variation on drug responses.

Transcultural Nursing Society

The mission of the Transcultural Nursing Society (TCNS) is to enhance the quality of culturally congruent, competent, and equitable care that results in improved health and well-being for people worldwide. The TCNS seeks to provide nurses and other health-care professionals with the knowledge base necessary to ensure cultural competence in practice, education, research, and administration. www.tcns.org

BOX 8–1 DEFINITIONS

Genetic polymorphism: multiple differences of a DNA sequence found in at least 1% of the population

Genetics: the study of heredity and its variations Genomics: the study of the complete set of genetic in-

formation present in a cell, an organism, or species Pharmacogenetics: the study of the influence of hered-

itary factors on the response of individual organisms to drugs (Venes, 2005); the study of variations of DNA and RNA characteristics as related to drug response (U.S. Food and Drug Administration, 2010b)

Pharmacogenomics: the study of the effects of genetic differences among people and the impact that these differences have on the uptake, effectiveness, toxic- ity, and metabolism of drugs

SNP: single-nucleotide polymorphism
