Q

Why is clarithromycin the best macrolide choice to treat H. pylori?

A

It has a substantially LOWER MIC90!!! (you want it to be low NOT high!!!)

More acid stable, and fewer SE

Q

Sucralfate

A

Attaches to BM of ulcer, stimulates PG and HCO3 secretion, recruits growth factors for repair

**requires acid environment to be active (don’t give with PPI, H2 blocker, etc)

Q

Two MOAs for Bismuth Subsalicylate?

A

Direct antimicrobial against H. pylori (disrupts cell wall, prevents adhesion, inhibits urease)

Protects ulcer surface- coats to protect and stimulates PG

Q

Cimetidine
Ranitidine
Nizatidine
Famotidine

A

Antihistamines - H2 receptor blockers

17
Q

MOA Rifabutin?

Static or cidal?

A

Inhibts DNA dependent RNA polymerase

Bactericidal!

18
Q

Drug that inhibits CYP3A4 ?

A

Clarithromycin (macrolides)

19
Q

Drug that induces CYP450?

A

Rifabutin

**Ramps up cyp450

20
Q

Drug that inhibits CYP2c9?

Why is this important?

A

Metronidazole

Because CYP2c9 metabolizes Warfarin. So blocking it, potentiates Warfarin and can increase ulcer bleeding!

21
Q

Bismuth subsalicylate does 2 things, what are they?

In one of its roles, it increases the production of what 3 things?

A

Antimicrobial (disrupts cell wall, prevents adhesion)
Protects surface

In its role as a surface protector: it increases secretion of mucus, prostaglandins, and bicarbonate

22
Q

Potential side effects of salicylate?

A 
Tinnitus
Vomiting
Metabolic acidosis
Confusion
Hyperthermia
23
Q

Why are muscarinic antagonists rarely used to treat ulcers?

A

Slow gastric emptying…prolong exposure of ulcer to acid

24
Q

What receptor does ACh bind on ECL cells?

A

M1

25
Q

What receptor does ACh bind on parietal cells?

A

M3

26
Q

ABCD’S of anticholinergic side effects?

A 
Anorexia 
blurry vision
constipation/confusion
dry mouth
stasis or urin/sedation
27
Q

Secondary effect of H2 antagonists?

A

Decrease cAMP…decrease basal acid secretion and nocturnal secretion and meal time secretion

28
Q

What drugs can cause bradycardia and hypotension if given IV rapidly?

A

H2 antagonists

29
Q

What are 2 major things to know about Cimetidine?

A

At high doses: can cause gynecomastia and impotence in males and galactorrhea (excessive milk production) in females because of decreased estrogen metabolism and increased prolactin

Inhibits CYP450 so it increases the effectiveness of drugs metabolized by it.

30
Q

What do you use for sx relief of stress induced ulcers in ICU?

A

Sucralfate

*liquid bandaid

31
Q

What kind of environment does sucralfate need?

A

ACID! Don’t give with PPI or H2 blocker or antacid
