Overview of Drug-Nutrient Interaction
Definition: The alteration of the effects of a drug
due to changes in nutrient status or the administration
of nutrients.
Significance: Can impact drug efficacy and safety, as
well as nutritional status.

Pharmacokinetics vs. Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacokinetics: Study of how drugs move through the body (absorption,
distribution, metabolism, excretion).
Pharmacodynamics: Study of the effects drugs have on the body.

Types of Drug-Nutrient Interactions
Nutrient Depletion: Drugs may deplete specific nutrients from the body.
Nutrient Enhancement: Some drugs may enhance nutrient absorption or
utilization.
Nutrient-Drug Interactions: Nutrients may affect drug metabolism.
Food-Drug Interactions: Interaction between drugs and specific foods.

Nutrient Depletion
Examples: Diuretics can deplete potassium; antacids may reduce calcium
absorption.
Consequences: Can lead to nutrient deficiencies.
