Q

What anti-inflammatory effect do NSAIDS have on eicosanoids

A

Eicosanoid synthesis inhibition

30
Q

Eicosanoids

A

Thromboxane, prostacycline, PGs

31
Q

NSAIDS analgesic effect

A

PG synthesis inhibition in absense & presence of inflammation - Peripheral & central sites of action

32
Q

NSAIDS vs. steroids

A

-Steroids delay epidermal wound healing, NSAIDS don;t - Steroids inhibit PG synthesis but not direct analgesics like NSAIDS

33
Q

NSAID peripheral site of action

A

PGs sensitize neurons to bradykinin pain-producing effects. This is blocked

34
Q

NSAID Central site of action

A

PG’s induce pain @ spinal cord level, descending mechanisms (opioidergic, adrenergic). NSAIDS block this

35
Q

NSAIDS antipyretic effect

A

Reduce fever (not hyperthermia or normal body temp)

36
Q

What is the mechanism/sequence of NSAID antipyretic effect?

A

Endotoxin –> IL1 –> hypothalmic epithelium –> PGE2 –> EP3 receptors –> Temp set-point increased –> Fever

37
Q

NSAID Antithrombotic effect

A

Inhibition of TXA2 production in platelets

38
Q

Mechanism of NSAID antithrombotic effect

A

Preferential, irreversible inhibition of COX in platelets (TXA2–> aggregating agent) over that of endothelial cells (PGI2–> anti-aggregating agent) Increase in blood clotting time (slowed)

39
Q

NSAID Antiendotoxic effect

A

Endotoxins produce some effects through PG production (not good evidence to support NSAID use for this, maybe if given prophylactically)

40
Q

NSAIDS clinical uses

A

Osteoarthritis - Soft tissue inflammation - Analgesia - Antithrombosis - Endotoxemic syndrome (?) - Cancer (?)

41
Q

NSAID in osteoarthritis (DJD)

A

Reduce inflammation & pain - Chondroprotective vs. Chondrotoxic - Titrate dose to a minimum - Take as necessary not continuously - Tablets with food - use antiulcer drug!

42
Q

NSAIDS - Chondroprotective vs. chondrotoxic

A

PGs are involved in chondrocyte-mediated degredation of cartilage matrix - High concentrations suppress cartilage matrix synthesis

43
Q

NSAIDS - Situations for anti-inflammatory use

A

Inhibit acute response - Shipping fever - Calf pneumonia - Musculoskeletal conditions - Postoperative

Which NSAIDS would be used for endotoxemic syndromes?

A

Flunixin - Phenylbutazone - Carprofen - Keoprofen - Dipyrone - Meloxicam

NSAIDS used in cancer treatment?

A

Piroxicam & coxibs

56

A

Oral ulcers - Gastroduodenal - Right dorsal colitis - Abomasal

NSAID drug interaction with warfarin, anesthetics, other NSAIDS

A

Drug displacement from plasma proteins

65
Q

NSAID drug interaction with furosemide

A

Decreased renal excretion and diuretic effect

66
Q

NSAID drug interaction with digoxin

A
