Chapter 16 xD Flashcards
Warfarin- MoA
Blocks reduction of oxidized vitamin K and prevents the post translational carboxylation of coagulation factors 2,7,9 and 10
Warfarin- Clinical use
Longterm treatment of thromboembolic disorders:
- DVT
- Thrombosis in pt with atrial fibrillation and artificial valve
- Treatment of MI
Warfarin- Adverse effects
- Bleedings
- Fetal warfarin syndrome
Warfarin- interactions
- Salicylates potentiate anticoagulant effect
- Rifampin and barbiturates induce CYP enzymes and decrease anticoagulant effect
- Cholestyramine decrease absorption
- GIMS FACE inhibit metabolism and increase risk of bleeding
Warfarin- Contraindication
Pregnancy
Heparin and related drugs- MoA
Heparin->Potentiate activity of endogenous antithrombin 3, an inhibitor of factor 2 and active factor 10
LMWHs and Fondaparinux->Inactivate factor 10
Heparin- Clinical use
- Acute thromboembolic disorders (Pulmonary or peripheral embolism, DIC, and DVT)
- Prevention of clotting (in arterial and heart surgery, blood transfusions, renal dialysis and during blood sample collection)
- Prevention of stroke due to emboli from acute atrial fibrillation
LMWHs- Clinical use
- Prevention of venous thromboembolism (associated with abdominal surgery or knee-or-hip replacement surgery)
- Prevent ischemic complication of unstable angina or NSTEMI
- Used in acute coronary syndrome and angioplasty
Fondaparinux- Clinical use
-Prevention of DVT in pt with hip-fracture, or hip-or knee replacement surgery
Heparin and related drugs- Adverse effects
Heparin->Bleeding, thrombocytopenia, and hyperkalemia
LMWHs->Bleeding, and thrombocytopenia
Fondaparinux-> Bleeding
Bivalirudin, Argatroban and Dabigatran- MoA
Inhibit thrombin
Bivalirudin- Clinical use
Prevent thrombosis in pt with UA or acute MI (including those undergoing coronary angioplasty and stent insertion)
Argatroban- Clinical use
Treatment of thrombosis in Pt with HIT or undergoing PCIs for MI
Dabigatran- Clinical use
- Reduce risk of stroke and PE in pt with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation
- Prevention of DVT in pt undergoing hip-replacement surgery
Dabigatran- Adverse effect
- Increased risk of bleeding
- Dyspepsia and gastritis
Apixaban, Edoxaban and rivaroxaban- MoA
Inhibit active factor 10
