19
Q

Zafirlukast

A

Leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTD receptor), AE: inhibits a cytochrome P450 isoenzyme and may cause significant drug interactions. Used in asthma.

20
Q

Montelukast

A

Leukotriene receptor antagonist,(LTD4 receptor), Used in Asthma. daily admin w/o meal restrictions.

21
Q

Aspirin

A

Irreversible COX inhibitor. Has more effects on platelets because they don’t have a nucleus. AE: bleeding and GI problems, tinnitus, asprin hypersensitivity(rhinitis, urticaria, asthma, laryngeal edema) due to shift to lypoxegenase shift. Rye syndrome: encephalopathy and fatty liver following viral infection in kids.

22
Q

Ibuprofen

A

Nonselective COX inhibitor, fewer GI side effects than aspirin.

23
Q

Naproxen

A

Aleve, Nonselective COX inhibitor.

24
Q

Ketorlac

A

More potent NSAID, Nonselective COX inhibitor, used for analgesia, but is also anti-inflammatory.

25
Q

Indomethacin

A

MOST potent NSAID, Nonselective COX inhibitor, AE: severe frontal headache and blood disorders

26
Q

Sulindac

A

More potent NSAID, Nonselective COX inhibitor

27
Q

Ketoprofen

A

More potent NSAID Nonselective COX inhibitor, related to ibuprofen

28
Q

Piroxicam

A

More potent NSAID once a day admin, can cause dose related serious GI bleeding.

29
Q

Celecoxib

A

Selective COX II inhibitor.

30
Q

Acetaminophen

A

Not an NSAID, Is a weak inhibitor of COX, and has minimal anti-inflammatory effect. Analgesic and antipyretic. AE: hepatotoxicity.

31
Q

Cortisol

A

Anti-inflammatory Steroid,

32
Q

Hydrocortisone

A

Anti-inflammatory Steroid

33
Q

Prednisone

A

Anti-inflammatory steroid

34
Q

Methylprednisone

A

Anti-inflammatory steroid

35
Q

Betamethasone

A

Anti-inflammatory Steroid, long acting

36
Q

Dexamethasone

A

Anti-inflammatory Steroid, Long acting.

37
Q

Cyclosporine

A

Immunosuppresive agent, Binds cyclophilin receptor inhibiting calcineurin activity, blocking dephosphorylation events for T cell activation. Liver met. AE: Drug interactions, renal toxicity up to 75%. Used long term for transplants.

38
Q

Tacrolimus (FK506)

A

Immunosuppressive, binds FKB506 resulting in inhibition of calcineurin. Blocks the dephosphorylation events for cytokine expression and T cell activ. 100X more potent than cyclosporine. AE: nephrotoxicity.

39
Q

Sirolimus

A

Antiproliferative drug used for organ transplant rejection. Binds FKBP to inhibit mTOR and stop cell cycle progression of B and T cells. AE: dose dependant increase in cholesterol and Triglycerides, nephrotoxicity, increased lymphomas and infections, CYP3A4.

40
Q

Mycophenolate

A

Antimetabolic drug, used in organ transplant, metabolite is inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase, preventing guanine synthesis. B and T cells are highly dependant on this pathway for proliferation. AE: hematologic and GI tox. Leukopenia, diarrhea and vomiting.

41
Q

Anti-thymocyte Globulin

A

Immunosuppressive, Ig binds thymocytes in circulation resulting in lymphopenia and impaired T cell immune response. AE: toxicity due to Ig being recognized as foriegn: i.e. serum sickness, nephritis, occasional anaphylaxis

42
Q

Muromonab-CD3

A

Immunosuppressive, used for whole organ transplants. Is an antibody whcih binds CD3(t-cell receptor). AE: cytokine release syndrome, give corticosteroids first.

43
Q

44
Q

Basiliximab

A

Immunosuppressive. Humanized, Anti-IL-2 receptor for activated T cells, blocking IL2 activated T cell activation events. Used in organ transplantation. AE: few, common antibody side effects

45
Q

Phenylephrine

A

Alpha1 agonist, leads to vasoconstriction

46
Q
