exam 2: lecture 2 Flashcards
what is the MOA of CCB? how many subunit does CCB have ?
BLOCKS L type ca channel and T type ca channel
5 subunits- 2a b g d
V + D binds to the A1 subunit and dihydro binds to the a1 subunit but on a DIFF PLACE = accounts for specificity
what are the nondihydro and dibhydro CCB meds?
non-dihydro - VD - verapamil, diltz
Dihydro: NNFAC
nifedipine - 1st drug in class casues tachycardia since blood vessles dialte fast
nicardine
felodipine
amlodipine - LONGEST half life
clevidipijne - only in IV form
where does nondihyfro and dihydro work best?
nondihydro works best in myocardium
dihydro works best in peripheral vascualr smooth musucles
what binds to T type channels CCB?
they are found in SA and AV nodes and non-dihydro drugs bind to it more which accounts for tissue specificity
what are the effects on the myocardium, arterial smooth musucles, coronary aa from CCB?
mycardium - slows contraction, reduces O2 requirement, usefull in angina. slows AV/SA nodes, decreases HR, decreases O2 requiremetns
arteiral smooth muscules - STOPS ca influx so casues vasodilation which decreases aterial presure
coronary aa - stops contraction stops spasm helps w prinz metal angina
what does amlodipine do to NO?
amlodipine worsk as a ACEi which leads to buildup of bradykinin –> increases NO –>. vasodilation
how does Vereapamil and diltiazem have sympatehtic antagonist effects?
if you give someone diltiazem, there is no relfex tachycardia due to sympaethtic blockage = vasodialtion, no tachycarida!!!
unlike nifidepine which has tachy effect
what are some indication for CCB and how do some of them work?
- HTN = dihydro drugs like amlodipine
- variant angina = diltizaem + isosorbide dinitrate (will explain in diff card)
- supraventricular arrhytmias = dilz, vera = targets T CA channels (t challens leads to depolarization)
- raynauds = dihydro (nifedipine) prevetns constriction, casues dialtion to fingers
-achalasia= dihydro (nifedipine) presents vasocontriction and casues relaxation
- migraines
- intracranila vasospams = dihydro = prevetns spasm after a stroke
what are some untoward effects to CCB?
cardiac depression - can slow down condcution and casue bradycarida and heart block
Hypotension = orthostasisi
GERD - VERY COMMON
Hyperglycemia - CCB can block calcium channels to stop releasing insulin leading to hyperglycemia!! ==> Metabolic ketoacidosis!!
Edema = due to redistruction of fluid and space
when is non dihydro CCB contraindiacated?
AV NODE BLOCK
what is the sig to papaver somniferum? what does the opium contain?
its an illegal plant that contains a crude opium (morphone, codein, pavaverine, thebaine).
this is why in drug test its positive
in 1964 reserchers realzied that the opiates are great vasodilators and they modfied papaverine to verapamil
what was the first drug in the nondihydro (year) and dihydro class?
non dihydro - verapamil 1964 but FDA approved in 1982
dihydro - nifedipine
waht is the MOA and pharmokinetics for minoxdil? what year was it made?
made in the 60s which has an untaught effect of hypertrichosis!!
MOA = OPENS K channels in arterial smooth musucles which hyperpolarizes making it harder to transmit a signal.
AFFECTS ONLY ARTERIES NOT VEINS!
pharmokinetics = taken PO. its a prodrug so liver can convert it to active sulfate metabolite!
what are the indication and untowards effect for minoxdil?
indications are:
- HTN = NOT FIRST IN LINE, its used for refractory HTN. only give this is nothing else works
- +diuretic and BB - you need to give it w either these two drugs or else it will casue bad vasodilation –> bad edema and bad tachycardia
untoward effects:
- CV - tachycardia, palpitation, angina, death
- hypertrichosis
what is the MOA of hydralazine?
normally, Gq activates IP3 but hydralazine inhibits IP3 so theres less contraction OR IT COULD ALSO open up calcium channels who knows
net effect: arterioles vasodilators
