A new drug was developed and found to be primarily eliminated by hepatic metabolism; i.e., the drug was not excreted in urine or secreted into bile. metakof the metabolic reaction is 2 mg/L and its Vmax is 125 mg/d. Using the Michaelis-Menten equation, calculate the rate of metabolism when the plasma drug concentration [C,] is as shown in the table below. [C,] mg/L Rate of Metabolism (mg/d) 0.025 0.050 0.10 0.20 0.5 1.0 2.0 4.0 10 20 40 60 Plot a graph with concentration on the X-axis and rate of metabolism on the Y-axis. Note how the reaction rate increases proportionately with plasma concentration at low concentrations (first-order kinetics), and then approaches saturation (Vmax) at high concentrations. nictored orally as a 159 mg tablet.

It has been suggested that limits be put onthe dose in vitamin A supplements sold in stores. What is a possiblereason for this limitation?
Why “might” an obese animal require more vitamin D in their diet than an animal of moderate body condition? Please be sure to provide mechanistic explanations (e.g., storage, catabolic and anabolic processes) by which the vitamin D requirements would be increased. Lastly, how might rapid weight loss affect vitamin D levels in the blood and the potential for toxicity.

(28)The bioavailability of drug X after oral administration is 38%. Which of the following best explains this level of systematic bioavailability?? (A) Adipose distribution. (B) Hepatic Metabolism. (C) Plasma Protein Binding. (D) Pulmonary Metabolism. (E) Renal Metabolism
A 35-year-old woman became severely depressed after the sudden death of her husband. Twomonths later, she was brought to the emergency room by her friend because of extremeweakness and lethargy. She appeared thin and pale. Upon history taking, the doctor found thatshe had not eaten for several weeks. Analysis of the plasma sample indicated elevated levels ofalanine, acetoacetate, β-hydroxybutyrate and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). However, her plasmaglucose concentration was low (55mg/dL). She was hospitalized, given intravenous feeding,antidepressant medications and subsequently shifted to a 1800kCal (7500kJ) diet. Her recoverywas uneventful.3.a) How could the patient maintain her plasma glucose levels within normal limits even though shewas not eating?b
20:37 E Document (69) Question 3 You are referred as 49yrs old man from the Asante Akyem South District specifically Juaso for an-ongoing care after having suffered an Acute Myocardial Infarction. The results from the cardiologist states the patient is apparently not hypercholesterolaemic but is somewhat obese and his father died of a "heart attack" at 59yrs of age. On clinical examination you confirmed the obesity (BMI- 31), the patient's Bp is 165/105mmHg, he admits to smoking 20-30 cigarette a day until his AMI, but no overt evidence of hyperlipidaemia is detected. Other than his father, there is no clear history of premature Coronary Arthery Disease (CAD) in his family. His Total fasting Cholesterol is 5.2mmol/L, HDL- Cholesterol- 0.8 mmol/L, triglycerides- 2.7mmol/L Reference Total Cholesterol (3.10- 6.50mmol/L) HDL- Cholesterol (1.03- 1.55mmol/L) Triglycerides (0.3-1.70 mmol/L) LDL- Cholesterol (2.60- 4.90mmol/L) (A) Discuss the lipid profile in terms of its risk potential and…
