Anti-gout and anti inflammatory Flashcards
Inflammation
Protective response stimulated by injury to tissues
NSAID properties
Analgesic
Anti-inflammatory
Antipyretic
Aspirin caused platelet inhibition (only in aspirin
Uses of NSAIDs
Relief of mild to moderate headaches
Relief of myalgia
Relief of neuralgia
Relief of arthralgia
Relief of postoperative pain
Relief of pain associated with arthritic disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and osteoarthritis
Treatment of gout and hyperuricemia
Salicylates
Aspirin
Acetic acid derivatives
- Diclofenac Sodium
- Indomethacin sulindac
- Ketorolac
Cyclo-oxygenase (COX-2) inhibitors
Celecoxib
Propionic acid dereviatives
Ibuprofen and naproxen
Types of NSAIDs
Salicylates
Acetic acid derivatives
Cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitors
Enolic acid derivatives
Propionic acid derivatives
What is aspirin used for (heart)
Reduce cardiac death after MI, given at the first sign of an MI
NSAID MOA
Stops the leukotriene pathway, prostaglandin pathway or both. Blocking the chemical activity of the COX enzyme
What does COX-1 enzyme
Maintains the GI mucosa
What does COX2 do
Promotes synthesis of prostaglandins involved in the inflammatory process
MOA of aspirin
Irreversible inhibitor of COX-1 receptors in the platelets causing antiplatelet activates.
Which NSAID has antiplatelet activities
Aspirin is the only one
Contraindications of NSAIDS
Drug allergies and conditions that place the patient at risk for bleeding (rhinitis, vit k deficiency, peptic ulcer disease)
NSAID adverse effects
Heartburn to severe GI bleeding
Acute kidney injury
Noncardiogenic pulmonary edema
Altered hemostasis
Hepatotoxicity
Skin eruption, sensitivity reaction
Tinnitus, hearing loss
What is misoprostol
helps reduce adverse effects of NSAIDs (inactivation of prostaglandins).
- Helps prevent GI bleeds
- Inhibits gastric acid secretion and has a cytoprotective component
-CI in pregnancy
How does NSAID affect kidney function
- Through the disruption of prostaglandins causing kidney injury/failure
- Kidney toxicity can occur with patients with dehydration, heart failure, or liver dysfunction, or with the use of diuretics or angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors
Salicylates forms
- acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) the most common
- Oral (tablets, capsules), topical cream (Aspercreme®), oral liquids, rectal suppositories
- aspirin–antacid combinations (Alka-Seltzer®)
- Enteric-coated aspirin (Praxis ASA EC®)
What can aspirin cause
Reye’s syndrome
Dosage of aspirin
81-325 mg and both effectively prevent thrombotic events
What is aspirin used for (not heart)
Headache, neuralgia, myalgia, and arthralgia
Pain syndromes resulting from inflammation: arthritis, pleurisy, and pericarditis
Systemic lupus erythematosus: antirheumatic effects
Antipyretic action
