Q

What is the SAR of arylalkanoic acids?

A

a-carbon = unsubstituted = arylacetic acid
* aryl group = phenyl -> “fenac”

a-carbon has a methyl = arylpropionic acid (chiral – racemic mixture because rapid epimerization but S enantiomer = active)
* aryl group = phenyl -> “profen”

Second aromatic ring good for activity (noncoplanar increased lipophilicity or blocked CYP metabolism)

Stable para substituents -> longer DOA

25
Q

How does sunlindac differ from other NSAIDs?

A

Prodrug with longer DOA because active metabolite have half-life 2x of parent

26
Q

Sunlindac

ADR

A

ADR: Less Gi effect due to prodrug form
* GI/CNS ADR milder and less common do to less PG activity

27
Q

What makes diclofenac potent?

A

Three potential MOA:
1. Inhibition of COX system -> decreased prostaglandins and thromboxanes
2. Inhibition of lipoxygenase pathway -> decreased leukotrienes
3. Inhibition of arachidonic acid release and stimulation of its reuptake

Thought that chlorines push the ring out of plane of other ring -> important for COX binding

28
Q

Diclofenac

MOA, ADR

A

MOA: Very potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic
ADR extensively metabolizd by CYP2C9 -> risk of hepatotoxicity

29
Q

What is a structure that can cause hepatotoxicity?

Diclofenac

A
  1. Open para to the amine -> hydroxyl insertion in para position
  2. Amines para to an OH
30
Q

What makes Nabumetone special?

A

Nonacidic prodrug

31
Q

  3. Suprofen
  4. Ketorolac
  5. Oxaprozin
33
Q

Ibuprofen

MOA, PK, DOsing

A

MOA: Analgesic but not anti-inflammatory
PK: size and lipophilicity mimic an aromatic ring
Dosing: ≤1600 mg/day

34
Q

How does ketoprofen differ from ibuprofen?

A

Inhibits synthesis of leukotrienes and leukocyte migration in addition to inhibiting prostaglandin biosynthesis

35
Q

What is the problem with suprofen?

A

Used as an analgesic -> reports of severe flank pain and transient renal failure

ONly 1% ophthalmic solution

36
Q

What drug is very toxic 5x that of other NSAIDs and can only be used for 5 days?

A

Ketorolac

37
Q

What makes ketorolac special?

A

Good analgesic activity comparable to opioids

38
Q

Oxaprozin

PK, ADR

A

PK: Prolonged DOA
ADR: rash and mild photosensitivity

39
Q

SAR of oxicams

A

Aryl or heteroaryl ring = optimal

Plus ring -> noncoplanar
(and must be primary carboxyamide – enhances acidity)

Desinged to be noncarboxylic acid to be well tolerated and potent

40
Q

How is oxicam acidic despite noncarboxylic features?

A

Hydroxyls are stabilized by resonance

41
Q

What is the difference between the types of Oxicams?

A

Piroxicam: more COX1 selective
Meloxicam (Mobic): More COX2 selective

42
Q

What is the difference between COX 1 and 2 pockets?

A

COX 1: Isoleucine
COX 2: Valine (larger binding site)

  • Harder for larger, relatively rigid side-chain substituents to enter COX-1
43
Q

How does COX2 inhibitors differ from nonselective?

A

Decreased GI ADR, but increased risk of CV effects
* For patients with low cardiovascular risk but increased GI toxicity risk

44
Q

Types of COX2 inhibitors?

A
  1. Celecoxib (Celebrex)
45
Q

Celecoxib

PK, Binding

A

PK: metabolized by CYP2C9 and inhibits CYP2D6
Binding: Ionic bond and Val binds to ring

46
Q

What is the site of action for skeletal muscle relaxants?

A

Most DO NOT act at neuromuscular junction (except dantrolene)

Main effect: to depress CNS -> relax motor neurons
* More brain or CNS relaxants than muscle relaxants

47
Q

What is the indication for skeletal muscle relaxants?

A

Muscle spasms from strains, sprains, and musculoskeletal trauma or disease

48
Q
