HY Pharm Flashcards
unfractionated heparin
low bioavailability
poor GI absorb, need SQ or IV admin
half life: 1/2 hr
MOA: induces conformational change in ATIII, augments neutralization of thrombin, Xa, IXa, XIa
impairs platelet fxn
AE: bleeding, HIT, osteoporosis (long-term use), transaminitis
fondaparinux
pure Xa inhibitor, but mediates effect thru ATIII
no HIT risk
DTIs
lepirudin
argatroban
dabigatran
inactivate thrombin in an ATIII-independent fashion
no HIT risk

GPIIB/IIIa antagonist
inhibits platelet aggregation via binding site of fibrinogen between platelets
Desmopressin acetate (DDAVP)
pro-coagulant
promotes release of stored vWf from vascular endothelium
aminocaproic acid
anti-fibrinolytic
inhibits fibrinogen

ABDC (HL)
polyglutamination
step that allows methotrexate to stay in cell for longer time
hydroxyurea
anti-metabolite
inhibits ribonucleotide reductase
dec wbc and platelet count
use: leukostasis in acute leukemia
antimetabolites
5FU
methotrexate
hydroxyurea
pyrimidine analogs
cytarabine (Ara-C)
Gemcitabine
cytarabine
pyrimidine analog
undergoes conversion by deoxycitidine kinase
incorporate into DNA, competitively inhibits DNAP
crosses BBB, intrathecal admin
-ocular toxicity/cerebellar ataxia
non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema
Gemcitabine
pyrimidine analog
intracellular activation by deoxycitidine kinase
inhibits DNAP, ribonculeotide reductase
fludarabine
purine analog
interferes w/ DNA synthesis
use: CLL
AE: immune damage to rbc –> hemolytic anemia
anthracyclines
doxorubicin
daunorubicin
diffuse into cell passively, intercalate between base pairs –> damage, breakage
also Topo II inhibition which disables strand repair
also undergo electron reductions that turn agents into ROS –> damage too lipid membranes, intracellular macromolecules, DNA
also release Fe –> more intercalation of DNA
myelosuppression alopecia N/V urine color changes vesicants (tissue damage if leaks out) cardiotoxicity (acute: EKG changes, chronic: dec LVEF func)
bleomycin
binds to DNA and oxygen
free radical form –> single /ds breaks
- cell cycle specific at G2
use: Hodgkins
AE: pulm fibrosis

plant alkaloid, m-phase, disrupts MT formation
use: Hodgkins
