Pharmacology One Liners
one liners pharmacology file-1
This post contains some one liners of Pharmacology. These will help you to strengthen your basics in Pharmacology.
4 〉 A full agonist is an agonist that produces the largest maximal response of any known agonist that acts on the same receptor.
-- Full Agonist
5 〉 An inverse agonist is a ligand that by binding to a receptor reduces the fraction of receptors in an active conformation, thereby reducing basal activity.
-- Inverse Agonist
8 〉 A drug that causes loss of sensation.
-- Anesthetic
10 〉 The determination of the potency of a physical, chemical or biological agent, by means of a biological indicator
-- Biological Assay
11 〉 The percent of dose entering the systemic circulation after administration of a given dosage form.
-- Bioavailability
12 〉 The science and study of the ways in which the pharmaceutical formulation of administered agents can influence their pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic behaviour.
-- Biopharmaceutics
13 〉 Chemical alteration of an agent (drug) that occurs by virtue of the sojourn of the agent in a biological system.
-- Biotransformation
14 〉 The movement of chemicals (drugs) into, through, and out of biological organisms or their parts.
-- Biotranslocation
15 〉 A form of experiment in which the participants are, to some degree, kept ignorant of the nature and doses of materials administered as specific parts of the experiment.
-- Blind Experiment
General Pharmacology questions (one Liners)
1 〉 Adrenaline and insulin are administered through
-- Subcutaneous (SC) route
2 〉 In Sublingual route of drug administration Drug is absorbed through
-- Buccal mucosa membrane
3 〉 Enteral routes of drug administration
-- Oral, sublingual and rectal routes
4 〉 Chemical name of Paracetamol
-- N-acetyl-p-aminophenol
5 〉 Chemical name of Aspirin
-- Acetylsalicylic acid
6 〉 Drugs that can be sold to the patient without the need for a doctor's prescription
-- OTC (over the counter) drugs
9 〉 The Study of drug, their machanism of action, pharmacological actions and their adverse effects
-- Pharmacodynamics
10 〉 The process of absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of drugs
-- Pharmacokinetics
11 〉 The study of poisons, their actions, detection, prevention and the treatment of poisoning
-- Toxicology
Revision of Pharmacology, some basic points (one liners)
1 〉 Binding of Morphine and Naloxone to the Opioid receptors
-- competitive antagonism
2 〉 When both agonist and antagonist binds reversibly on the same site of the receptor
-- competitive antagonism
3 〉 Antagonist binds with the same receptor as the agonist and inhibits its effect
-- receptor anatgonism
4 〉 When two drugs act at different receptors or by different machanisms on the same physiological system and produce opposite effect
-- Functional antagonism i.e insulin and glucagon on blood sugar
5 〉 Use of dimecaprol in arsenic poisoning is an example of
-- Chemical antagonism
6 〉 Adsorption of alkaloids by activated charcoal is an example of
-- Physical antagonism
7 〉 When the effect of one drug is decreased or abolished in the presence of another drug
-- Drug antagonism
8 〉 When two or more drugs on simultaneous administration show effect greater than that of either drug alone
-- Synergism (e.g. Sulphamethoxazole + trimethoprim)
9 〉 The enhancement of action of one drug by another inactive drug
-- Potentiation (supra-additive effect)
10 〉 The range of concentration of drug which produces desired response with minimal toxicity
-- Therapeutic window
12 〉 The combined effect of two or more drugs is equal to the sum of their indivisual effect
-- Additive effect i.e paracetamol + ibuprofen as analgesics
Hospital and Clinical Pharmacy Important Questions (one liners)
1 〉 Griseofulvin is better absorbed in
-- Presence of fatty meal
2 〉 Death due to cyanide poisoning results from
-- Inhibition of cytochrome oxidase
3 〉 The antidote used in the lead poisoning

6 〉 Normal heamatocrit value is
-- 40-54%
7 〉 Volkman's spoon is used
-- To collect fluid from cavity
8 〉 Hepatitis B virus is a
-- DNA Virus
9 〉 The latin word 'Ad libitum' means
-- As much as you please
Autonomic Nervous System.
1 〉 The junction of a post-ga1nglionic axonal terminal with its effector cell is termed a neuroeffector junction.
-- Neuroeffector junction
2 〉 Nerves that convey impulses from the brain and spinal cord (CNS) to muscles, glands and other effector organs
-- Efferent (Motor)
3 〉 Nerves that convey flow of impulse from peripheral to CNS.
-- Afferent (Sensory)
