Q

Mechanism of action of the PPIs

A

PPI’s covalently bind to sulfhydryl groups of H+/K+-ATPase at parietal cell secretory sites, thereby inhibiting gastric acid secretion by irreversibly inhibiting functioning ‘–ase’ pumps

inhibits pump-induced egress of gastric acid

Takes several days to create new steady-state of pump activity

Full symptom effects seen in a few-several days
longer than H2’s

•Inhibit 50%-90+% of acid
Depending on dose, frequency, duration

•Ulcerations healed in 4-8+ weeks*

Q

Mechanism of action of Sucralfate

A

Undergoes cross-linking from interaction with stomach acid, creating a viscous, sticky polymer which adheres to epithelial cells around ulcer’s crater

Prevents acid access to ulcer sites

•May also:
Stimulate local prostaglandin and mucous production and epidermal growth factor

Cytoprotection

Does not affect pH

16
Q

What are the relative contraindications of Sucralfate

A

Severe renal failure die to the presence of Aluminum making it difficult to be excreted by the kidneys

17
Q

what are drug interactions pf Sucralfate

A

Possible; due to other drugs getting stuck in the barrier therefore, take 2-hours after other medications

Dosed QID for active ulcers so plan dosing other meds accordingly, if possible

also can cause constipation

18
Q

Mechanism of action for Misoprostol and when should it be given

A

A prostaglandin E1analog

Provides protective prostaglandin to gastric mucosa & reduces gastric acid release from parietal cell

Provides cytoprotectionby increasing mucosal defenses
–Stimulates bicarbonate and mucous production
–Increases mucosal blood flow

Standard doses reduce basal & nocturnal acid output (less than H2-antagonists and PPI’s)

given when NSAIDs must be given to a patient
-Primary Prophylaxis

19
Q

Off label uses of Misoprostol

A

With/Without mifepristone (pregnancy termination)

Alone for cervical ripening

Post-partum hemorrhaging (high dose)

20
Q

what are the two contradictions of Misoprostol

A

Pregnancy, unless needed for off label issues

IBD

21
Q

Mechanism of action pf Bismuth Compounds

A

PeptoBismol/Kaopectated

Originally developed as anti diarrheal agent

well known for its antimicrobial actions

22
Q

What is Bismuth Compounds used for

A

OTC: reflux hearburn, indigestion, and diarrhea

Rx used in combination with antibiotics and PPI for suppressant of H Pylori

23
Q

Adverse effects and Drug interactions of Bismuth Compounds

A

(dose related)
Constipation (anti-diarrheal actions)
Black/Dark (regularly-formed) stools

Drug Interactions:
Lots, take 2 hours after other medications

24
Q

Relative and absolute Contradictions of Bismuth Compounds

A

Relative Contraindications
Antiplatelets and anticoagulants
since Bismuth subsalicylate has aspirin modalities
Severe Renal failure

Absolute Contraindications
GI bleeding
Salicylate hypersensitivity

25
Q

How to approach the treatment of H.Pylori?

A

Combination therapy a must

-at least 2 antibiotics and an acid reducer (PPI or H2 blocker) for 10-14 days

26
Q

What is consisted in the typical triple therapy for H Pylori

A
Triple Therapy (14 days)
All at B.I.D.dosing
A PPI
Clarithromycin
Amoxicillin or Metronidazole
27
Q

what is consisted in the typical quadruple therapy?

A
Quadruple Therapy (10-14 days)
PPI at B.I.D.,all others at Q.I.D.dosing
A PPI
Metronidazole
Tetracycline
Bismuth subsalicylate
28
Q

what happens if their is a failure of eradication with metronidazole containing triple therapy?

A

should be followed with a non-metronidazole containing quadruple therapy

29
Q

What to do in Clinical management of H Pylori if the patient is allergic to penicillen?

A

no amoxicillin

Substitute Metronidazole (consider Bismuth quad.)

30
Q

what to do in a CLinical management of H Pylori with Metronidazole resistance

A

Substitute Tetracycline

Consider Quadruple therapy (w/ Clarithromycin & Amoxicillin)

31
Q

what to do in a clinical management of H Pylori in a scenario with Clarithromycin resistance

A

Substitute either Amoxicillin or Tetracycline

Consider Bismuth quadruple therapy

32
Q

What to do if patient has Peptic Ulcer disease and presents without H. Pylori

A

Consider short course of antacids or Sucralfate (topical)
–moderate symptoms, consider ranitidine
–severe symptoms, consider lansoprazole
