Peptic Acid Disorders Flashcards
GERD
Excess Gastric Motility
PUD
Gastric or Duodenal Ulcers
Gastritis
stress related mucosal injury
mucosal erosions and ulceration caused when…
that occur when caustic substances (acid, pepsin and bile) overwhelm the GI mucosa defensive mechanisms
Two groups of drugs that treat acid disorders
1) Decrease acidity
2) promote/increase mucosal defense
3 classes of drugs that decrease intragastric acidity
1) Antacids
2) Histamine- 2 Receptor Blockers H2
3) Proton Pump Inhibitors
3 classes of drugs that promote mucosal defense
1) Sucralfate
2) Prostaglandin analogs
3) Bismuth
Antacids Rx or over the counter? Used for? ADR? Max frequency?
- Nonprescriptions
- good for heartburn and dyspepsia
- neutralize stomach acid
- Cause constipation/ diarrhea
- max frequency: 1-2 times / week
MOA of Antacids
-weak bases + HCL => H2O + salt
Why are antiacids not very effective?
The body just gets more acidy (makes more acid)
How long does antiacid work?
2 hours
Pharmacokinetics of Antiacids
Liquid best
more water soluble= more effective
Gastric emptying high= less neutralization
What are the two types of antiacid drug interaction?
1) Bind to other drugs
2) some drugs need acidity
Antacids should not be given within 2 hours of what drugs?
tetracycline, fluorquinolones, itraconazole, iron
RX LISt Antacids
Sodium Bicarbonate
Calcium carbonate
Aluminum hydroxide gel
Aluminum hydroxide and MG hydroxide
Sodium Bicarbonate
-combine with HCL=>CO2
ADRs of Sodium Bicarbonate
-increase NA
increased Na => CHF, HTN, liver failure, renal insufficiency
-metabolic alkalosis
Calcium Carbonate
- less soluble than sodium bicarb
- can also be used in osteperosis
ADRs of Calcium Carbonate
hypercalcemia, metabolic alkalosis
Magnesium Hydroxide & Aluminum Hydroxide
- used togethor
- dont form CO2
- little metabolic alkolosis
- neutralize HCL well
ADRs of Magnesium Hydroxide & Aluminum Hydroxide
- Magnesium causes diarrhea & aluminum causes constipation
- renal dz= al and mg toxicity
when were H2 Receptor Antagonists introduced
70s
OTC or RX
H2 Receptor Blocker RX List
Cimetidine (Tagamet)- most complications Famotidine (Pepcid) Nizatidine (Axid)- only non IV Ranitidine (Zantac)- most common- best one -itidine
Which H2 blocker causes the most complications?
Cimetidine
Which H2 blocker is only non IV?
Nizatidine
Which H2 blocker is most commonly used and is the best one?
Ranitidine
Which cell are H2 receptors on?
Parietal cells
What do parietal cells release?
acid
