ID Exam 3 Flashcards
Remdesivir MOA
Converted to monophosphate and phosphorylated to its active metabolite which interfered with the action of viral RNA causing a decrease in viral RNA production
Remdesivir route
IV
Remdesivir ADE
Nausea
Elevated ALT and AST
Remdesivir DDIs
Chloroquine phosphate or hydroxychloroquine sulfate
CYP 2C8, 2D6, 3A4
Paxlovid MOA
Acts as covalent inhibitor binding directly to catalytic cysteine interfering with the replication of SARS
Paxlovid ADME
High fat meal increase exposure
Paxlovid side effects
Dysgeusia
Diarrhea
HTN
Myalgia
Paxlovid contraindications
USE during pregnancy
Paxlovid DDIs
Cyp3A4
Molnupiravir MOA
Competitive inhibitor for viral RNA dependent RNA polymerase. Indices an antiviral effect via viral error catastrophe
Molnupiravir ADE
Maculopapular rash
BBW serious infections possible
Oseltamivir (prodrug) MOA
Inhibition of neuraminidase activity leading to viral aggregation at cell surface
Oseltamivir ADME
Rapid absorbed
Renal entirely excretion
Oseltamivir DDIs
Live attenuated flu vaccine (intranasal)
Zanamivir MOA
Inhibitor viral neuraminidase and causes viral aggregation at cell surface and reduced spread of virus within respiratory tract
Zanamivir ADME
Deposited in lower respiratory tract and oropharynx
Zanamivir DDIs
Love attenuated flu vaccine (intranasal)
Zanamivir ADE
Sinusitis, dizziness
Muscle and nerve aches
Amantadine and Rimantadine MOA
Inhibit viral replication
Interfere with viral assembly
Amantadine and Rimantadine ADME
Well absorbed
Large Vd
Dose adjust in renal patients
Amantadine and Rimantadine ADE
CNS/GI
Neurotoxic
Pregnancy category C
Viral infection depend on host cell metabolic process for survival and obligate intracellular what
Parasites
What are the 5 sites that could be a drug target
Attachment
Entry
Uncoating (replication and gene expression)
Assembly (plus budding if envelope)
Release
Pathogenesis of viral infections
Enter through mucosa of respiratory or GI through direct inoculation
Replicate at site of entry
Few spread through neural cells
