16
Q

Aspirin - Platelets

A

Irreversibly inhibit platelet COX
Low doses inhibit platelet TXA2 production
Prolonged bleeding time (stop 2 weeks before surgery)

17
Q

Ibuprofen

A

Competitive, reversible COX-1 & 2 inhibitor
Use: mild to moderate pain, antipyretic, symptoms of rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, dysmenorrhea, acute migraines
Drug Interax: decrease effectiveness of ACE inhibitors

18
Q

Naproxen

A

Competitive, reversible COX-1 & 2 Inhibitor
Better anti-inflammatory than Ibuprofen
Use: mild to moderate pain, antipyretic, symptoms of rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, dysmenorrhea, ankylosing spondylitis, acute gout
Adverse: Increased risk of stroke/MI with extended use
Drug interax: decrease effectiveness of ACE inhibitors, antacids and sucralfate (divalent cations) decrease naproxen absorption

19
Q

Ketorolac (Topical)

A

Opthalmic prep.

Allergic conjunctivitis or recovery from cataract surgery

20
Q

Ketorolac

A

Analgesic (comparable to morphine)
Use: Post operative pain (Moderate to severe)
IM, IV, and Oral admin. options
Inhibits platelet aggregation
Adverse: GI bleeding, Gen. bleeding, Hepatic,
Lower dose in elderly or

21
Q

Diclofenac

A

Analgesic
Use: rheumatoid/osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, primary dymenorrhea
Opthalmic prep for post cataract surgery
Arthrotec: Diclofenac+Misoprostol - used when risk of ulcers; contraindicated in pregnancy
Zorvolex: low dose diclofenac (mild to moderate acute pain);
Adverse: elevation of AST (monitor transaminases first 8 weeks)
Metabolized by CYP2C9

22
Q

Indomethacin

A

Oral: Acute gouty/rhematoid/osteo-arthritis, tendonitis, ankylosing spondylitis,
IV: nonsurgical closure PDA (limited by renal toxicity)
Adverse: GI pain (take w/ food), displace bilirubin from albumin, decreased urine output
Contraindicated: hyperbilirubinemia, renal failure

23
Q

Celecoxib

A

Selective COX-2 inhibitor
Rheumatoid and osteoarthritis
Adverse: Low incidence GI pain, increased risk stroke/MI
Drug interax: metabolized by CYP2C9, watch dose w/ 2C9 inhibitors (Fluconazole)

24
Q

Selecting NSAID

A

Same mechanism, different potency
Aspirin sensitivity cross to other NSAIDs
GI ulcers
Pregnancy - bleeding, premature closure ductus arteriosus, inhibit uterine motility
DO NOT COMBINE NSAIDs
Renal function

25
Q

prostaglandins & kidney

A

PGE & PGI effects: increase renin release; vasodialation increases GFR; decrease effect of ADH
Loop Diuretics increase COX activity to increase sodium and water excretion (NSAIDs reduce this)
Hyperkalemia in patients w/ reduced renal function, worse in combo w/ certain drugs (propranolol, potassium sparing diuretics, ACE inhibitors

26
Q

Acetaminophen

A

Alternative for aspirin sensitivity (not NSAID)
Antipyretic, analgesic, weak anti-inflammatory
Does not alter platelet function, less GI issue
Mx: COX-1 & 2 inhibitor; COX-3 inhibitor?; activate cannabinoid receptor?
Adverse: Hepatic and renal toxic
#1 cause acute hepatic failure in US
Drug interax: Alcohol

27
Q

A

Gold based drug
Mx: Inhibition of function and maturation of T cells, less rheumatoid factor, inhibit phagocytosis by macrophages
Use: rheumatoid arthritis not responding to NSAIDs
Adverse: lesions of the mucus membranes, Chrysiasis, protienuria, glomerulonephritis

28
Q

Gold Sodium Thiomalate

A

Mx: Inhibition of function and maturation of T cells, less rheumatoid factor, inhibit phagocytosis by macrophages
Use: rheumatoid arthritis not responding to NSAIDs
Adverse: lesions of the mucus membranes, Chrysiasis, protienuria, glomerulonephritis, thrombocytopenia, anemia, anaphylaxis
