phenylephrine
this drug is a beta 2 selective drug ; used for bronchodilation and tx of asthma
albuterol
these drugs bind to the alpha receptors and prevent binding of the agonist
alpha antagonists
effects of these drugs include miosis, nasal stuffiness, increased urine flow , decreased bp,
alpha antagonists
this drug is CI in pts undergoing Cat Sx; can cause floppy iris syndrome
tamsulosin
what are some clinical uses of alpha antagonists
Pheochromocytoma, hypertensive emergencies, chronic HTN, urinary obstruction
these drugs potentiate the vasodilative effect of Ach; they inhibit the breakdown of cGMP;
type 5 phosphodiesterase inhibitors
SE of these drugs includes impaired color vision, blurry vision, and ischemic optic neuropathy
type 5 Phosphodiesterase inhibitors
these drugs occupy beta receptors and prevent binding by agonists
beta antagonists
these drugs cause a decrease in BP, slow AV conduction, increased airway resistance ( CI in asthma), decrease IOP
beta antagonists
what are some clinical uses of beta blockers
HTN, heart disease, arrthymias, heart failure. glaucoma, hyperthyroidism
what are some SE of beta blockers
bradycardia, mild sedation/depression, worsening of asthma , cardiac decompensation
methotrexate
antimetabolite
prednisone
steroid hormone
tamoxifen
steroid hormone
these drugs interfere with the availability of normal purine or pyrimidine nucleotide precursors: inhibit synthesis or compete with them in DNA or RNA synthesis
antimetabolites
this drug is structurally related to folic acid and acts as an antagonist; it enters the cell via active transport and decreases production of DNA , RNA, etc required for synthesis
methotrexate
what are some clinical uses for methotrexate
severe psoriasis, RA, and Crohn Disease
What are some SE of methotrexate
nausea, vomiting and diarrhea; renal damage; cirrhosis; pulmonary toxicity in kids; and CI in pregnancy
this drug is used in the tx of lymphomas; it triggers production of specific proteins that reduce cell growth and proliferation
prednisone
what are some AE of prednisone
hyperglycemia, cataract formation, increased IOP, osteoporosis, and mood changes
this drug is an estrogen antagonist and is used for first line therapy in breast cx; it binds to estrogen receptor but fails to induce estrogen responsive genes -> depletes estrogen receptors ; competes with estrogen
