Q

H1-HR Antagonists

A

-rapid PO administration
-extensively bound to PP
-undergo extensive hepatic biotransformation
-excretion in urine or bile
-act as competitive antagonists
-decrease allergic actions of histamine, sedation, anti-emetic effects, anti-pruritic
-Side effects: muscarinic cholinergic–> xerostomia, urine retention, sinus tachycardia
Alpha-adrenergic –> hypotention –> reflex tachycardia
-high therapeutic index
-can produce vomiting, lethargy, ataxia, hyper excitability, seizures

21
Q

NSAIDs

A

-Inhibit prostanoid formation (COX-1 vs. COX-2) and 5-lipoxygenase activity
Beneficial: reduce inflammation, relief of stomach pain, decrease body temp.
Adverse: gastropathy, clotting alterations, nephropathy, hepatotoxicity, etc
-weak acids, low Vd, high PP binding
-hepatic metabolism w/ excretion in bile
-inhibition of NK-kB, free radicals and decreased neutrophil adherance and activation

A
  • “Dual inhibitor” of COX-1+2 and 5-LOX
  • excellent antiinflammatory activity w/ less gastropathic effects
  • reduces formation of LTB4
