Combined Effect of Drugs:
In summation, the two drugs act by different mechanisms, and the combined effect is equal to the sum of individual effects. In additive effect, both drugs act by the same mechanism, and the combined effect is the sum of individual effects. In synergism, the combined effect is more than the sum of individual effects. This can be achieved by sequential block where two drugs act on different steps of the same biochemical pathway. Or when one drug is altering the pharmacokinetic profile of the other drug. In chemical antagonism, one substance neutralizes the other purely by chemical means. In physiological antagonism, both substances act by different mechanisms and produce the opposite effects on the same physiological parameter. Pharmacological or receptor antagonism can be competitive or non-competitive. In competitive antagonism, the agonist and antagonist compete for the same binding site. In reversible competitive antagonism, the binding of the antagonist is weak so by increasing agonist concentration maximum response can be achieved. In irreversible antagonism, the antagonist binds with a strong covalent bond. So binding is irreversible and maximum response cannot be achieved even with increasing agonist concentration. In non-competitive antagonism, the antagonist does not compete for the same site as the agonist. It can be achieved by binding to an allosteric site on the same receptor molecule. Or by interfering with downstream signal molecules.
