Answer 3

non-TNF biologic DMARD

Question 4

Acetaminophen MOA

Answer 4

Blocks the action of COX3 in the brain, resulting in decreased prostaglandin synthesis

Question 5

Acetaminophen class

Answer 5

Analgesic

Question 6

Zovirax

Answer 6

Acyclovir

Question 7

Acyclovir MOA

Answer 7

inhibits DNA synthesis and viral replication by competing with deoxyguanosine triphosphate for viral DNA polymerase and being incorporated into viral DNA

Question 8

Acyclovir class

Answer 8

antiviral agent

Question 9

Humira

Answer 9

Adalimumab

Question 10

Amjevita

Answer 10

Adalimumab

Question 11

Answer 11

bind to TNF-a to neutralize its biological activity

Question 12

Adalimumab class

Answer 12

biologic DMARD, TNF

Question 13

Differin

Answer 13

Adapalene

Question 14

Adapalene MOA

Answer 14

Retinoid-like compound; modulates cellular differentiation, keratinization, and inflammatory processes

Question 15

Adapalene class

Answer 15

Retinoic acid derivative

Question 16

Campath

Answer 16

Alemtuzumab

Question 17

Alemtuzumab MOA

Answer 17

Targets cell surface glycoprotein CD52

Question 18

Alemtuzumab class

Answer 18

antineoplastic agent, anti-CD52

Question 19

Zyloprim

Answer 19

Allopurinol

Question 20

Allopurinol MOA

Answer 20

Prevents synthesis of urate from hypoxanthine and xanthine

Question 21

Allopurinol class

Answer 21

Xanthine oxidase inhibitor

Question 22

Alprazolam MOA

Answer 22

Binds to benzodiazepine receptor on the postsynaptic GABA neuron within the CNS, enhancing the inhibitory effect of GABA and causing increased neuronal membrane permeability to chloride ions, which makes the neuron less excitable

Question 23

Alprazolam class

Answer 23

Benzodiazepine

Question 24

Elavil

Answer 24

Amitriptyline

Question 25

Amitriptyline MOA

Answer 25

Increases synaptic concentration of serotonin and/or norepinephrine in the CNS by inhibiting their reuptake

Question 26

Amitriptyline class

Answer 26

Tricyclic antidepressant

Question 27

Amoxicillin MOA

Answer 27

Inhibits bacterial wall synthesis by binding to one or more penicillin-binding proteins, which inhibits the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in the bacterial cell wall. The incomplete cell wall biosynthesis eventually leads to lysis of the bacterial cell.

Question 28

Amoxicillin class

Answer 28

aminopenicillin

Question 29

Amoxicillin/clavulanate MOA

Answer 29

Amoxicillin disrupts bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to one or more penicillin-binding proteins and preventing the final transpeptidation step of peptidoglycan synthesis in the bacterial cell wall.

Clavulanate is a beta lactamase inhibitor.

Question 30

Amoxicillin/Clavulanate class

Answer 30

Penicillin + beta lactamase inhibitor combination

Question 31

Amphotec

Answer 31

Amphotericin B

Question 32

Abelcet

Answer 32

Amphotericin B

Question 33

Amphotericin B MOA

Answer 33

Binds to ergosterol altering cell membrane permeability in susceptible fungi, causing leakage of cell components and subsequent cell death.

Question 34

Amphotericin class

Answer 34

Antifungal agent

Question 35

Arimidex

Answer 35

Anastrozole

Question 36

Anastrozole MOA

Answer 36

Inhibits aromatase, preventing the conversion of androstenedione to estrone, and testosterone to estradiol, thereby decreasing tumor mass or delaying progression in patients with tumors sensitive to hormones.

Question 37

Anastrozole class

Answer 37

Aromatase inhibitor

Question 38

Abilify

Answer 38

Aripiprazole

Question 39

Aripiprazole MOA

Answer 39

Antipsychotic with affinity for dopamine and serotonin receptors, alpha1 adrenergic receptors, and histamine receptors. Also acts as a serotonin reuptake inhibitor.

Question 40

Aripiprazole class

Answer 40

Second generation antipsychotic
