Homework Answers
Answer is Potassium; potassium
because digoxin inhibit Na+K+ ATPase enzyme, and causes sodium to leave cells and potassium to enter cells. Blocking this mechanism results in higher serum potassium levels. Hence digoxin causes hyerkalaemia, means high potassium. This high potassium increases the digoxin toxicity.

KL, a 57-year-old woman, has heart failure that is being controlled with digoxin, furosemide, and a low-sodium diet. She is taking potassium chloride (KCl) 20 mg per day orally. Three days ago, KL had flulike symptoms that included anorexia, nausea, lethargy, and diarrhea. Her fluid and food intake diminished, and she refused to take the KCl, saying it makes her sick. She continues to take the digoxin and furosemide. The nurse's assessment during the home visit includes poor skin turgor,...

4. When CoCl2 is dissolved in water, the resulting solution is pink because of the presence of only) octahedrally coordinated [CoCI(H20)s] coordination complexes. If concentrated hydrochloric acid (a source of Cl) is added to this solution, the following equilibrium is established. [CoCI(H20)s] (aq)+ Cl (aq) [CoCl2(H20)2](aq) + 3H20(1) AH >0 Where [CoCl2(H20)2] is also soluble in water. a) Write a Keq expression for this equilibrium b) Suppose we systematically add increasing amounts of Cr to this system, while maintaining a...

a) Explain what happens inside a dielectric material at the molecular level in the presence of an external electric field E, b) When studying electrostatics we come to the conclusion that in equilibrium there is no electric field inside a conductor. How is it that now that there is an electric current inside the conductor, one can already speak of the presence of an internal electric field (inside a conductor)?

Discuss the scope of the problem of adverse drug reactions. Discuss definitions for adverse drug reactions (e.g., side effect, toxicity, allergic reaction, idiosyncratic effect, iatrogenic disease, physical dependence, carcinogenic effect, and teratogenic effect). Discuss organ-specific toxicity. Focus on the liver as a drug-metabolizing system and explain why it is such a crucial participant in organ-specific toxicity with drugs. Discuss how and why adverse drug reactions occur, given that for a prescription drug to be approved for use, it must have...
