Q

-prazoles

A

IRREVERSIBLE H/K ATPase inhibitor

  • abs in SI (enteric coating get it past stomach)
  • lipid soluble so it travels to stomach and diffuses into canalculi
  • gets ionized in canalculi and is trapped there (where H+ pumps are found)

Q

Laculose

A

fecal acidifier = laculose is broken down by bacteria in gut into organic acids. the decreased pH in the colon prevents the diffusion of NH3 into the blood stream. therefore this is a treatment for Hepatic encephalopahy

24
Q

upper or lower GI route of fecal transplant better

A

lower

25
Q

Metamucil

A

hydrophillic mucolipid (fiber) that forms a large gelatinous mass when mixes with water –> more formed stools *treatment for constipation and diarrhea

26
Q

Docusate Sodium [Colace]

A

anionic surfactant that allows for more water and fat to be incorporated into stools = stool softener

27
Q

Biscodyl [Ducolax]

A

PRODRUG CONVERTED BY ENTERIC BACTERIA
stimulant laxative that activates myenteric plexus –> contractions

also causes tight junctions to become more leaky (NaCl and water into lumen)

28
Q

Lubiprostone

A

stimualtes Cl- channel directly to increase Cl- efflux into lumen –> H2O follows
**used in Tx of IBS-D

29
Q

castor oil

A

anionic surfactant that allows for more water and fat to be incorporated into stools = stool softener

also cathartic and causes complete evacuation of the intestines

30
Q

Loperamide [Imodium]

A

opiate receptor agonist that increases gut transit time (inhibiti Ach) allows more time for things to get abs by gut

31
Q

Cascara

A

stimulant laxatives, with the glycosides stimulating peristalsis, and emodin exciting smooth muscle cells in the large intestine.

32
Q

Senna

A

Stimulant laxitive, glycosides increase gastric fluid secretion and bowel motility (stimulate peristalsis)
–activate myenteric plexus and increase permeability

33
Q

Scopalamine

A

anti-cholinergic = blocks M1 and vagal simulation of CN 8 (vestibular N) = motion sickness

patch preparation that is put on behind the ear 1 hr before getting on boat (or whatever) –only effective if started before!!

34
Q

Chlorpromazine

A

centrally acting D2 and muscarinit receptor antagonists for the treatment of N/V

35
Q

Granisetron

A

peripherally acting 5-HT3 antagonist (in stomach and small intestine) = blocks vagal afferents going to chemoreceptor trigger zone/area postrema

36
Q

Cyclizine

A

H1 antihistamine = vagal and vestibular blockers for the treatment of motion sickness

37
Q

used to treat intractable hiccough

A

chlorpromazine

38
Q

A

central substance P/neurokinin 1 receptor antagonist

39
Q

Droperidol

A

centrally acting D2 blocker

40
Q

Meclizine

A

H1 anti-histamine = used to tret vertigo

**depresses hyperstimulation of the labyrinth

41
Q

used to treat post-opertave N/V

A

Droperidol

42
Q

given prior to chemo

A

lorazepam

43
Q

Dolesetron

A

peripherally acting 5-HT3 antagonist (in stomach and small intestine) = blocks vagal afferents going to chemoreceptor trigger zone/area postrema
**longest half life!!!
