Exam 4 pcol Flashcards
Pitavastatin
livalo
Statin -HMG co Reductase inhibitor
Lowers LDL
Lowers triglycerides
Increases HDL
Atorvastatin
lipitor
Statin- HMG coa Reductase inhibitor
Lowers LDL
Lowers triglycerides
Increase HDL
Is metabolize by CYP 3A4
High intensity dose is 40-80mg
Moderate intensity dose is 10-20mg
Rosuvastatin
Crestor
HMG coa reductase inhibitor
Lowers LDL
Lowers triglycerides
Increases HDL
If use for high intensity the dose is 20-40mg
If use for moderate intensity the dose is 5-10mg
Pravastatin
Pravachol
HMG-Coa Reductase inhibitor
Lowers LDL
Increases HDL
Use for moderate intensity and the dose is 40-80mg
Simvastatin
zocor
HMG Coa Reductase inhibitor
It will lower LDL
Lower Triglycerides
Increases HDL
Use for moderate intensity dose is 20-40mg
Lovastatin
Mevacor
HMG Coa Reductase inhibitor
It will decrease LDL
Increase HDL
For moderate dose is 40mg
Ezetimibe
Cholesterol absorption inhibitor it will inhibit NPC1L1
Zetie
Vitamin B3 Nicotinic Acid (Niacin )
Lowers LDL lower triglycerides increases HDL
Gemfibrozil
Lowers LDL lowers triglycerides
activated PPAR
Fenofibrate
Activates PPAR Lowers triglycerides lowers LDL
Cholestyramine
Questran
Bile acid sequestran it will inhibit the reabsorption of bile acid
Lowers LDL but AE can increase triglycerides so cannot give to pt that triglyceride levels are >300
Will bind to other drugs and decrease the absorption of other drugs
It causes constipation and bloating–> Acts locally in the GIT because of the quaternary ammonium slat is not absorb
It will inhibit the absorption of fat soluble vitamins Vitamin D,E,A,K
The compensatory mechanism of the body is to increase LDL receptors so decreases LDL in the blood because LDL will be taken in to the liver and is needed so is brokendown need cholesterol in order to form billie acid
Another compensatory mechanism of the body is to increase HMG Reductase –> So need to co-administer a statin
Colestipol
Colestid
Is a bile acid sequestran
It will react with the lipophilic backbone of bile acid and will prevent the reabsorption of the bilie acid to the liver because it will form non absorbable complex and acts locally om the GIT
The liver will sense the decrease in the bilie acid and as a compensatory mechanism it will increase LDL receptors so more LDL is taken from the blood so lowers the LDL
It will also cause increase in production of HMG coa reductaser so need to co-administer a statin
Colesevalem
bilie acid sequestran
Acetazolamide
Diamox
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
Works in the proximal tubule
Methazolamide
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
Works in the proximal tubule
Dorzolamide
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
works in the proximal tubule
Chlorothiazide
Thiazide diuretic
works in the proximal distal tubule
Hydrochlorothiazide
Thiazide diuretic
works in the proximal distal tubule
Metolazone
Thiazide like diuretic
quinazoline derivative
Chlorthalidone
Thiazide like diuretics
Phathalamide derivative
Indapamide
Thiazides like diuretics
Indoline derivative
