57
Q

What is the MOA of acetaminophen?

A
  • Acts on hypothalamus to produce antipyresis
  • peripherally works to block pain impulse generation
  • may inhibit prostaglandin synthesis in CNS
58
Q

What is the MOA of amlodipine?

A
  • calcium channel blocker

- inhibits cardiac and vascular sm. muscle contraction leading to dilation of main coronary and systemic arteries

59
Q

What is the MOA of aspirin?

A
  • inhibits synthesis of prostaglandins by blocking COX
  • inhibits platelet aggregation
  • has antipyretic and analgesic activity
60
Q

What is the MOA of atorvastatin?

A

inhibits rate-limiting step of cholesterol biosynthesis by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase

61
Q

What is the MOA of glyburide?

A
  • sulfonylurea enhance insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells
  • increase peripheral utilization of glucose
  • suppress hepatic gluconeogenesis
  • possibly increase sensitivity and/or number of peripheral insulin receptors
62
Q

What is the MOA of hydrochlorothiazide?

A

Thiazides increase sodium and chloride excretion by interfering with their reabsorption in the cortical diluting segment of the nephron

63
Q

What is the MOA of ibuprofen?

A
  • Nonselective inhibitor of COX-1 and COX-2
  • reversibly alters platelet function
  • prolongs bleeding time
64
Q

What is the MOA of levofloxacin?

A

As the S(-) enantiomer of the fluoroquinolone, ofloxacin, it inhibits DNA-gyrase in susceptible organisms thereby inhibits relaxation of supercoiled DNA and promotes breakage of DNA strands
DNA-gyrase (topoisomerase II), is an essential bacterial enzyme that maintains the superhelical struction of DNA and is required for DNA replication and transcription , DNA repair, recombination, and transposition

65
Q

What is the MOA of lisinopril?

A
  • Competitive inhibitor of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)
  • prevents conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor, results in lower levels of angiotensin II (increase in plasma renin activity and reduction in aldosterone secretion)
  • CNS mechanism may also be involved in hypotensive effect as angiotensin II increases adrenergic outflow from CNS
  • vasoactive kallikreins may be decrease in conversion to active hormones by ACE inhibitors, thus reducing blood pressure
66
Q

What is the MOA of losartan?

A

As a selective and competitive, nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist, losartan blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II; losartan interacts reversibly at the AT1 and AT2 receptors of many tissues and has slow dissociation kinetics; its affinity for the AT1 receptor is 1000 times greater than the AT2 receptor. Angiotensin II receptor antagonists may induce a more complete inhibition of the renin-angiotensin system than ACE inhibitors, they do not affect the response to bradykinin, and are less likely to be associated with nonrenin-angiotensin effects (eg, cough and angioedema). Losartan increases urinary flow rate and in addition to being natriuretic and kaliuretic, increases excretion of chloride, magnesium, uric acid, calcium, and phosphate.

67
Q

What is the MOA of metformin?

A

Decreases hepatic glucose production, decreasing intestinal absorption of glucose and improves insulin sensitivity (increases peripheral glucose uptake and utilization)

68
Q

What is the MOA of metoprolol succinate?

A
  • Selective inhibitor of beta1-adrenergic receptors
  • competitively blocks beta1-receptors, little/no-effect on beta2-receptors at oral doses <100mg (in adults
  • does not exhibit any membrane stabilizing or intrinsic sympathomimetic activity
69
Q

What is the MOA of metoprolol tartrate?

A
  • Selective inhibitor of beta1-adrenergic receptors
  • competitively blocks beta1-receptors, little/no-effect on beta2-receptors at oral doses <100mg (in adults
  • does not exhibit any membrane stabilizing or intrinsic sympathomimetic activity
70
Q

What is the MOA of simvastatin?

A

Hydrolyzed to beta-hydroxyacid (potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor), increases rate of removal of cholesterol from body and reduces production by inhibiting conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonate (early and rate limiting step in biosynthesis of cholesterol)
