Hematology Pharmacology Flashcards
Streptokinase MOA AE?
MOA: Aids conversion to plasmin=>cleaves thrombin and fibrin
AE: Intracranial bleeding/generalizaed bleeding
Antidote to Streptokinase?
Aminocaproic acid
Abruptly stop Acute Bleeding
Heparin Antidote?
Protamine Sulfate
“Prothrombin”
Heparin MOA?
Activator of antithrombin=> decreased thrombin and 10a
Low-molecular-weight heparins (e.g., enoxaparin, dalteparin) and fondaparinux act more on?
10a
HIT?
development of IgG antibodies against heparin- bound platelet factor 4 (PF4)
Argatroban, bivalirudin, dabigatran MOA?
Inhibits Thrombin
Warfarin MOA?
Interferes with γ-carboxylation of vitamin K– dependent clotting factors II, VII, IX, and X, and proteins C and S.
Warfarin metabolism affected by?
epoxide reductase gene (VKORC1).
Warfarin vs Heparin?
Heparin=>Water soluble, pregnancy friendly, Blood=site of action=>inhibits coagulation in a test tube
Warfarin=>Lipid soluble, small, tetragenic, Liver
Apixaban, rivaroxaban MOA?
ApiXaban, rivaroXaban=>10a inhibitors
Apixaban, rivaroxaban AE?
Bleeding=>no reversible agent
Clopidogrel, prasugrel, ticagrelor (reversible), ticlopidine are?
ADP receptor inhibitors
Clopidogrel MOA?
irreversibly blocking ADP receptors
ticlopidine AE?
Neutropenia
