MOA - Allopurinol
Decreases the uric acid content by inhibiting xanthine oxidase, which is the enzyme responsible for converting hypoxanthine to xanthine and xanthine to uric acid
MOA - Febuxostat
Decreases the uric acid content by inhibiting xanthine oxidase, which is the enzyme responsible for converting hypoxanthine to xanthine and xanthine to uric acid
MOA - Colchicine
Unknown. Thought to interrupt the cycle or monosodium urate crystal deposition in join tissues and therefore interrupts the inflammatory response that initiates and sustains an acute attack.
Inhibits urate crystal deposition, which is enhanced by low pH in the tissues, likely by inhibiting oxidation of glucose and subsequent lactic acid production in leukocytes
MOA - Buprenorphine/Naloxone
Mu receptors are responsible for analgesia, respiratory depression, miosis, decreased GI motility, and euphoria. In the CNS, it promotes analgesia and respiratory depression by decreasing brain stem respiratory centers’ response to carbon dioxide tension and electrical stimulation. It also decreases gastric, biliary, and pancreatic secretion, induces peripheral vasodilation, and promotes opioid-induced hypotension due to histamine release.
Buprenorphine:
a) Mu-opioid receptor partial Agonist
b) Kappa-opioid receptor ANTAgonist
Naloxone: Mu-opioid receptor ANTAgonist (causes opioid withdrawal when injected parenterally;
used as an abuse deterrent)
MOA - Codeine
3-methylmorphine that functions as a phenanthrene opioid, analgesic activity through conversion to morphine
MOA - Tramadol
Mu agonist and weak inhibitor of serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake
MOA - Hydrocodone
Unknown but opioid analgesic with antitussive properties
MOA - Oxycodone
Pure mu agonist
MOA - Morphine
Pure mu agonist
MOA - Fentanyl Transdermal
Phenylpiperidine opioid agonist with predominant effects on mu opioid receptor 50-100x more potent than morphine
MOA - Methadone
Binds to opiate receptors in CNS therefore inhibiting ascending pain pathways, changing perception to pain and producing generalized CNS depression.
Phenylethylamine opioid agonist that is qualitatively similar to morphine but chemical structure is unrelated to alkaloid-type structures of opium derivatives
Analgesic activity of (R)-methadone is 8-50x (+ a tenfold higher affinity for opioid receptors) that of (S)-methadone
