Lecture 2 - Antiviral Agent 1 Flashcards
Neuraminidase inhibitors
Oseltamivir
Zanamivir
Peramivir
Cap dependent endonuclease inhibitor
Baloxavir
Neuraminidase Inhibitors MOA
Block neuraminidase interfering with the release of replicated influenza virus from infected host cells
Best efficacy if admin w/in 12hrs of symptoms
What does Neuraminidase enzyme do
Cleaves cellular-receptor silica acid allowing replicated virus to exit
cleaves silica acid on the mucin in airway epithelium facilitating upper airway invasion
Oseltamivir Dosing & Dose adjustment
5 days = treatment
10 days = Prophylaxis
Req renal dose adjustment due to renal clearing
Route of admin for Neuraminidase inhibitors
Oseltamivir = PO Zanamivir = INH Peramivir = IV
CI Oseltamivir
Severe renal and hepatic impairment
** can use in Pregnancy **
DI Oseltamivir
Probenecid inhibit renal elim = inc conc
Oseltamivir ADE
Mostly GI, take with food
Zanamivir Dosing
Treatment = 5 days Prophylaxis = 10 days
DI + Dose adjustment Zanamivir
None, v little renal clearance ~ 10%
Also class C greg = can use
CI Zanamivir
Asthma, COPD (give albuterol before giving drug)
Zanamivir ADE
Cough
Btonchospasm
Peramivir dosing
5 days = treatment only
no prophylaxis dose
Peramivir Dose adjustment
Yes, renal cleared
DI Peramivir
none
Peramivir ADE
D,N,V
some CNS
Baloxavir (cap endonuclease inhibitor) MOA
inhibition of Cap-dependent endonuclease lends to interruption of viral RNA transcription
Baloxavir Dosing & Adjustment
1 tab both treatment & Prophylaxis, give within 48hrs of symptom
no adjustment, just for weight
Baloxavir DI
Dont co-admin with polyvalent cations = chelate
Baloxavir ADE
D,N,V
Remdesivir MOA
Binds nd inhibits viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity
Its an adenosine analog thats FDA approved
Remdesivir Dosing adjustment
no renal or hepatic
given IV
Remdesivir CI
Hepatic insufficiency
renal dysfunction
Remdesivir ADE
Rash
Nephrotoxicity
hepatic toxicity
Remdesivir DI
Hepatic enzyme + P-GP inducers not recommended due to potential decrease in remdesivir drug conc
ie. Rifamycins, Carbamazepine, Phenobarbital, Efavirenz, Nevirapine, Rilpivirine
Dexamethasone MOA
Binding to Pro/3CLpro (viral protease), inhibition of neutrophil apoptosis/demargination, promotion of anti-inflammatory genes (IL-10)
Dexamethasone dose adjustment
Nah
Dexamethasone CI
Current MTB, HSV
Dexamethasone DI
moderate CYP450, 3A4 inducer
Dexamethasone ADE
Reactivation of HBV, HSV, TB, dysglycemias, CNS changes
Tocilizumab MOA
Monoclonal antibody to IL-6 receptor, treats cytokine release syndrome
Tocilizumab Dosing adjustments
None
IV only, given once
Tocilizumab CI & DI
Dont give in ppl with low BC
Dont give with immunosuppressants
Tocilizumab ADE
HSV/VZV reactivation Opportunistic infections** TB Thrombosis** GI perforation Hypersensitivity
