Which of the following drug classes is associated with significant differences in metabolism based on gender?
 
  1. Beta blockers
  2. Antibiotics
  3. Serotonin reuptake inhibitors
  4. Angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors

Question 2

Gender differences between men and women in pharmacokinetics include:
 
  1. More rapid gastric emptying so that drugs absorbed in the stomach have less exposure to absorption sites
  2. Higher proportion of body fat so that lipophilic drugs have relatively greater volumes of distribution
  3. Increased levels of bile acids so that drugs metabolized in the intestine have higher concentrations
  4. Slower organ blood flow rates so drugs tend to take longer to be excreted

Did you know?

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
