A first key to understanding pharmaceutics forces us to look once again at the representation of molecules. We do not need a structure to guide us here, we can simply look at the name of the material. Many drugs are acids or bases. A common question is this one: How do we determine if a drug (or any other compound) is an acid or a base? Here are some hints that may help you decide.
Let's name some acids: hydrochloric, nitric, sulfuric, acetic, boric, benzoic come to mind. Salts formed by a reaction with these compounds are conjugate acids, so the compound that reacted with them must have been a base, right? Let's name some CONJUGATE ACIDS of basic drugs:


Base Salt/Conjugate Acid
Diphenhydramine Diphenhydramine HCL
Glucosamine Glucosamine sulfate
Epinephrine Epinephrine sulfate
Ephedrine Ephedrine HCl
Atropine Atropine sulfate
Tetracycline Tetracycline HCl
