Pharm 5 Flashcards
tricyclic antidepressant
imipramine, amitriptyline. block amine reuptake. side effect: anticholinergic
mao inhibitors
phenylene, tranylcpromine. used to treat depression. side effect: anticholinergic
SSRIs
fluoxetine (prozac) trazadone. selective block serotonin. antidepressant. side effects: anticholinergic
treat manic phase of manic depression
lithium
corticosteroids/glucocorticoids
anti-inflam. supress immune system so opportunistic (TB, candidiasis, aids). side effects: gastric ulcers, immunosuppresion, acute adrenal insufficiency, osteporosis, hyperglycemia, redistribution of body fat
onset of anesthesia
is inversely proportional to solubility in blood
halothane
halogenated hydrocarbon general anesthetic associated with hepatotoxicity. give with atropine as well to control secretions
4 stages of anesthesia
1) analgesia
2) delirium
3) surgical anesthesia
4) medullary paralysis
H1 antihistamines
treating dermatologic manifestations of an allergic response (chlorpheniramine). Preop med for sedation, anti emetic, and anticholinergic (promethazine). controlling parkinson symptoms- anticholinergic (diphenhydramine). competitive antagonism
H2 antihistamines
cimetidine: reduce gastric acid secretion.
trigeminal neuralgia
carbamazapine, phenytoin
biggest risk of oral contraceptives
thrombembolism disorders
alcohol euphoria results from
removal of inhibitory activity in cortex
sulfonyl ureas cause insulin secretion by
direct stimulation of pancreatic beta cells
which drugs are the most consistant in chemical structure
local anesthetics
