Drugs Flashcards
amphotercin B
nephrotoxic
pores in cell membrane and renal vasoconstriction
liposomal less toxic
Tx: volume expansion
VEGF inhibitors
nephrotoxic
interrupts fenestrated glomerular epithelium
results in HTN, proteinuria, thrombotic microangiopathy
EGFR inhibitors
nephrotoxic
hypomagnesemia and may inhibit P-gp
lithium
nephrotoxic
enters cell through ENaC
inhibits aquaporin 2 causing NDI
calcineurin inhibitors
nephrotoxic: difficult to tell in drug effect or transplant rejection
cisplatin
nephrotoxic and ototoxic
taken up by Ctr1 (copper) and OCT2
promotes cell death
calcium gluconate
IV: ~ 30 min
stabilizes membrane potential of myocardium
Tx: hyperkalemia
insulin
stimulates Na-H exchanger leading to a higher Na concentration to stimulate Na-K ATPase to take up K into cell
Tx: hyperkalemia
albuterol
Inhalation: B2 agonist
activates (phosphorylates) Na-K ATPase to take up K into cell
Tx: hyperkalemia
acetazolamide
PCT
carbonic anhydrase inhibitor: inhibits NaHCO3 reabsorption
effect: hyperchloremic systemic acidosis, alkaline urine, chloride reabsorption
Tx: glaucoma, cystinuria, seizure, mountain sickness
furosemide (Lasix)
loop diuretic
dilates veins: decrease LV filling pressure
SULFA drug
AE: ototoxicity, increase BUN, hyperglycemia, hyperuricemia, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, sialadentitis (inflammation of salivary glands)
DI: Lithium, indomethacin, probenecid, warfarin
secreted by organic acid transporter
bemtanide
loop diuretic
more POTENT than furosemide
useful with warfarin
torsemide
loop diuretic
vasodilator: lowers BP
longer T1/2
loop diuretics
block Na/K/2Cl transporter in TALH: high delivery of Na to distal nephron causing Na and H20 excretion
increase renal PG: increase RBF
stimulate renin release and maintain GFR
increase excretion: K, Ca, Mg, H (mild metabolic alkalosis)
Tx: edema, IV for acute pulmonary edema, hypercalcemia, protect against renal failure, washout toxins, HTN, SIADH
MOST POTENT diuretic
give NSAID to prevent resistance
thiazide diuretics
inhibit Na/Cl cotransporter in DCT: moderate Na/water excretion
Ca/Na counter transporter is more active: decrease Ca urinary excretion
increase Na to CD: increase K secretion
increase Mg excretion
Tx: edema, HTN, diabetes insipidus, hypercalciuria, osteoporosis, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
AE: hypokalemia, hypomagnesia, hyperuricemia, hypercalcemia, hyperglycemia, lipid disorders, reduced GFR
GFR needs to be greater than 60 mL/min
K sparing diuretics
inhibits Na reabsorption and K secretion cortical collecting duct decrease Na to CD: decrease K secretion COMBINE with thiazides AE: hyperkalemia, megaloblastic anemia in patients with cirrhosis
spirinolactone
aldosterone antagonist
AE: gynecomastia, hirsutism, uterine bleeding
amiloride
K sparing: ENac inhibitor
triamterene
K sparing: ENac inhibitor
kayexelate
K resin: removal of K in GI
Tx: hyperkalemia
eplernone
aldosterone antagonist
ethacrynic acid
loop diuretic
mannitol
osmotic diuretic
hydrochlorothiazide
thiazide
metolazone
POTENT thiazide
GFR greater than 30 needed
chlorthalidone
thiazide
long T1/2
quinothazone
POTENT thiazide
arginine vasopressin
ADH
desmopressin
ADH like drug
Tx: central diabetes insipidous, bleeding disorders, nocturnal enurisis
conivaptan
IV V2R antagonism less selective for V2R than tolvaptan Tx: hyponatremia CYP3A4 metabolism AE: numerous, infusion site rxn
