Final - MOA Flashcards
- hypernatremia
- cellular dehydration
- dehydrated + normal BP
hypotonic
stimulate uterine contractions & promote induction of labor
oxytocics
- cross BBB
- preferred drug for initial HIV treatment
efavirenz
antivirals:
- prodrug = more commonly prescribed
valacyclovir
- volume expander
- massive hemorrhage
- shock
- burns
- acute liver failure
colloids
- aerobic gram-neg = narrow spectrum
- effective against gram-neg: bacterial protein synthesis inhibitor
aminoglycosides
antivirals:
- flu A or B
- N = neurominoade
oseltamivir
- prophylaxis of bacterial infection
- gram-pos
vancomycin
- generally broad-spectrum
- 4 generations (1st gram-neg, 5th gram-pos)
- DNA synthesis inhibitors
flouroquinolones
sometimes mom gets too much oxytocin and there is no relaxation & too much activity = too long of contraction = can administer _____
terbutaline
- arthritis, inflammatory conditions, pediatric patent ductus arteriosus
indomethacin
- control postpartum hemorrhage & restore uterine tone
methylergonovine
is amphotericin broad or narrow spectrum
borad
- affects DNA so it can’t replicate
- gram-neg
- broad-spectrum
- medication for anthrax
ciprofloxacin
- 5th Gen
- extreme cases of MRSA
ceftrialone
- PI = most common for protease inhibitor category
lopinavir with ritonavir
antivirals:
- prophylactic (cancer exposed, pregnancy, children 3-4, adults)
- parkinson’s (ween off)
amantadine
- controlling postpartum hemorrhage
- inducing abortion 13-20 wks
carbaprost
- acts by inhibiting the synthesis of mycolic acid
- main prototype drug for latent TB
- bacteriocidal = active
- bacteriostatic = dormant
isoniazide
- usually for gastric ulcers
- first line after oxytocin
misoprostol
- inhibit cell wall
- 4 generations (1st gramp-pos, 5th gram-neg)
- bacteriocidal and inhibit cell wall synthesis by binding PBPs
- used to treat step throat in pt. who has nka
cephalosporins
- creates a defective proviral DNA strand
- dirty needle stick
- pregnancy moms to reduce transmission to fetus
zidovoudine
