**b blocker would worsen hyperkalemia

27

MOA impair synthesis of LDL due to inhibitory effects on HMG COA reductase

A

statins

28

MOA: prevents intestinal absorption of cholesterol (decreases LDL)

A

ezetimibe

29
Q

MOA: promotes activity of lipoprotein lipase, which hydralyzes fatty acids from VLDL, CLEARING VLDL and decreasing triglyceride levels

A
31
Q

Hemolytic anemia, elevated liver enzymes, low platelets (HELLP) in pregnancy… what should you monitor for

A

severe pre eclampsia in preg pt
HYPERMAGNESIUM toxicity
MONITOR DEEP TENDON REFLEXES

32
Q

PSC in UC.. drugs you take are cholestyramine (not absorbed in gut) and ursodeoxycholic acid.. what are the MOA of both and why are they taken 4-6 hours

(PSC is P-anca, ^ ALP, ^ direct conjugated billi)

A

Cholestyramine: bile acid binding resin

UDA: bile acid

TAKING THEM TOGETHER will decrease UDA absorption, and no change in cholestyramine so you take them 4-6 hours apart
