APAP
MOA
_________________
During APAP OD, how does it cause damage? ; How is Alcohol related?
reversibly inhibits CNS_COX = antipyretic | analgesic ONLY (NOT ANTIINFLAMMATORY)
_________________
COX = Cyclooxygenase
▶APAP OD forms [TOXIC_NAPQI] → which eventually depletes [protective_Glutathione] = [TOXIC_NAPQI] accumulates to cause hepatic necrosis.
▶EtOH stimulates ([CYP450-2E1] - which catalyzes APAP → [TOXIC_NAPQI].
⭐APAP before ALcohol is ✅
