竞争性拮抗剂对剂量效应曲线的影响

竞争性拮抗剂对剂量效应曲线的影响

Dose-response curve for an agonist drug with and without the presence of a competitive antagonist. In the presence of a competitive antagonist, achievement of the same effect as originally achieved by the EC50 of agonist by itself requires an agonist concentration that is 100-fold higher (indicated by arrows).
