i think u should figure out the reason why u score so low, ur mistakes and laziness , then multiply ur effort.
ur passion is cool.. now u only need to beliv u can do the magic..
with ur scores ,nobody should tell u u need to do some smart and hardwork on ur reading table. dnt only read but STUDY ur books .study it even wen its looks bore, that skill give u inner details and understanding that u wont forget.

just the five science course, like am not seeing y u shouldnt cover them as many times as possible before ur next jamb. they arent much na .. dont joke with ur past question also

Good morn ogas, and ogas to be in the house.

I just recovered from an intense malaria episode, and this morning, my brain resumed duty. I was wondering, since the chunk of drugs I took would passed through my stomach to my small intestine, then to my liver, and the liver is charged with detoxification of substances such as drugs, alcohol etc.
Wouldn't it be assumed that the drugs would be neutralized before it enters the blood stream

or would it pass through the lymphatic system, as that's the only way to bypass the liver and get directly to the heart?

Some drugs form active metabolites (prodrugs), others are absorbed in doses that even after undergoing first pass effect there's still enough quantity to be used by the body, even some drugs are never metabolised by the liver, and some drugs are delivered directly into the blood stream (iv). Drugs can also be used topically.

Actually, oral administere drugs dont bypass the liver, u were right in that dey reach d liver. However durin dz first encounter wit d liver, there is a short bout of biotransformation which is also called first pass (hepatic) metabolism. This hence results in detoxification of (in most orally administered drugs) abt 30% of d drugs. This therefore reduces d bioavailability of d drug in plasma.

So to ansa ur que, not all of d drug u used for malaria will b biotransformed or metabolised in dat first encounter wit d liver.

In contrast, drz 100% bioavailability durin IV administrations...

Hope i helped...even though my write up seemed hurried...kinda busy

Thanks a lot oga jefdr001 and boss jargo for the explanations. Although, I still got questions, I think I have gotten what I came for.

Lemme just drop this one(kinda two);
Oga jefdr mentioned some drugs that are never metabolised by the liver.

1. What situation would warrant such drugs

2 If someone with severe cirrhosis were to be critically ill, wouldn't there be some kinda drug overdose due to buildup of intake.... what can be done in such cases?

I hope I'm not asking too much... Happy Sunday All!!!!

Nah u my bro. I think jargo89 has helped to explain some of my highly summarised points to your earlier question.
As for your recent question just know that cirrhosis is a contraindication for the use of drugs that are mainly metabolised by the liver or an indication for a reduction in doses if such drugs have no alternative. Also remember that the kidneys play a role in drug metabolism and some drugs can be excreted as absorbed without being significantly altered. Drug effect also wanes with redistribution.
Pls some drugs are never significantly metabolised by the liver, ko. Significantly.

Hey guys. Is there any UNIZIK 2nd year medical student in the house? I just got admitted via DE and still trying to complete the registration process. A friend told me that some departments are about to sit for exams.
Please I need someone to give me guidelines on what I need to resume school with and how to make up for lost time and classes.

Thanks.

Second, and most importantly, I'm glad to officially join this group.

thanks. they do write exam, we wrote only English but truth is they didn't use that exam to judge. they were so many factors they considered eg waec result. someone DT scored highest in the exam for medicine didn't even get the admission. but you have to reach the passmark of the exam shaa
Hey MissParagon, I know you'll be in your 3rd year of Med. School at UNIZIK but I need your help. What are the materials/textbooks I need to resume school so as to catch up with my colleagues. I'm asking because I know you will be of help, having had similar experience last year.

Thanks.
