Q

Reverse COX-2 inhibitor with less gastropathy/GI risk

A

Celecoxib

22
Q

What increases the risk fo cardiovascular disease with celecoxib?

A

increased TXA2 = platelet aggregation

COX-2 Inhibition shifts to favor TXA2 production from COX-1

23
Q

the below are contraindications for which drug?

GI disease, asthma, breast feeding,
pregnancy, renal failure,

A

celecoxib

24
Q

Nonspecific, reversible inhibitor of COX-1 and COX 2 w. lowest SE profile

A

ibuprofen

25
Q

ibuprofen has metabolites that produce free radicals… what severe SE can occur due to this?

A

agranylocytosis, aplastic anemia

26
Q

This NSAID reduces PMN migration via PLA inhibition

A

indomethacin

27
Q

This NSAID has very potent anti-inflammatory effects but has high incidence of SEs-

A

indomethacin

28
Q

which NSAID is used for PDA?

A

indomethacin

29
Q

This is a potent COX inhibitor that decreases AA bioavailability

A

diclofenac

30
Q

what can be combined with NSAIDs to limit GI toxicity?

A

misoprostol

31
Q

This is an NSAID that is used as an analgesic in post-op pain, and may be combined with opiates to reduce opiate burden

A

ketorolac

32
Q

combining _____ with ASA reduces effects on platelets

A

ibuprofen

33
Q

What is the mean half-life of naproxen?

A

13 hours

34
Q

does naproxen cross the placental barrier?

A

yes

35
Q

what NSAID is bound to plasma proteins, where displacement can cause drug interactions? (particularly warfarin)

A

naproxen

36
Q

These two NSAIDs inhibit PMN migration and lymphocyte function. They also decrease ROS production

A

“-oxicams”

piroxicam, meloxicam

37
Q

This is an NSAID not on the market in the US, it has serious SEs but is very potent

A

phenylbutazone

38
Q

3 side effects of acetaminophen…

A

skin rash
ASA cross-sensitivity
neutropenia

39
Q

major serious SE of acetamiophen

A

hepatic necrosis

40
Q

What is the dose of acetaminophen that can cause hepatotoxicity?

A

10-15g

41
Q

what dose of acetaminophen can be fatal?

A

25g

42
Q

2 labs that can show acetaminophen toxicity

A

serum transaminase

lactic acid dehydrogenase

43
Q

A

encephalopathy, coma, death

44
Q

______ is responsible for acetaminophen’s liver damage

A

intermediate metabolite

45
Q

When does toxicity occur biochemically in acetaminophen administration?

A

when metabolites exceed reduced glutathione
