Pharm Flashcards
Anti-muscarcinic that can be used as a treatment for drug-induced parkinsonian symptoms (cog-wheel rigidity, resting tremor, masked facies, bradykinesia) typically caused by D2 receptor blockade in the nigrostriatal pathway
Benzotropine and trihexyphenidyl
long acting insulin
Detmir (Dont), Go (Glargine)
Intermediate Acting Insulin
regular insulin (Rest), NPH (neutral protamine Hagedorn) (Now); peaks 2-3 hours after admin
Short Acting insulin (pe-prandial admin)
Glulisine (Girls) Aspart (And) Lispro (Lads)
Diuretic used to treat acute decompensated HF
Loop diuretics which work at the TaLH; inhibit NaKCl2; Furosemide and Ethacrynic Acid
diuretic primarily used to treat Hypertension
Thiazide diuretics; work at DCT inhibiting the NaCl; Hydrochlorothiazide and Chlorothalidone
Phase I Drug metabolism
Reduction, oxidation, hydrolysis with Cytochrome P450 yields slightly polar water-soluble metabolites
Phase II Drug metabolism
Conjugation (methylation, glucuronidation, acetylation, sulfanation) yields very polar inactive metabolites that can be really excreted
Drugs that can cause drug induced lupus in slow acetylators
Procainamide, isoniazid, hydralazine (increases cGMP leading to smooth muscle dilation; used in HTN emergency)
Hydralazine MOA, Use and SAE
MOA: Increases cGMP –> smooth muscle relaxation; Hypertensive emergency (smooth muscle dilation); reflexive Tachycardia, SLE, fluid retention, headache, angina
Treat for extended spectrum beta lactamase organism
Carbapanems
SAEs of Carbapenems
Diarrhea, lower seizure threshold, rash
SAEs of Amphotericin B
Infusion related: fever, chills, headache, hypotension; Long term complication: Type I renal tubular acidosis (1 cylinder), Anemia second to decreased Epo production, magnesium wasting’ seizures with intrathecal administration
Class IV Antiarr
Verapamil, Diltiazem- RATE control (SA and AV node conduction)
Adverse SAEs of Adenosine
Flushing, SOB, Chest pain, Sense of impeding doom, headache, hypotension, bronchospasm; effects are blunted by theophylline and caffeine (A1r Antagonist)
Class V Antiarrythmics
Adenosine, Digoxin, Magnesium, Potassium
MOA of Adenosine
Binds A1 receptors increased K+ efflux from the cell, decreased Ca current (Ica) –> Decreased AV node conduction
Drug that causes selective inhibition of I funny channels prolonging phase 4 of the pacemaker AP; decreases SA node firing; reduces Cardiac O2 requirement
Ivabradine
SAE of ivabradine
Visual brightness, hypertension, bradycardia
This drug causes smooth muscle relaxation by inhibiting Na current mediated action potentials; however it is less efficacious in infected tissues
Lidocaine, bupivacaine; less effective in ischemic and acidotic tissue
Conditions treated with FFP/ prothrombin Complex concentrate
Deficiencies in F II, VII, IX, X C and S; Warfarin too, rodent poisoning, etc; DIC, cirrhosis
Conditions treated with Cyoprecipitate
cry contains fibronectin, VIII, XIII and vWF; so you can treat vWF deficiency, fibrinogen deficiency and Hemophilia A.
Cholinomimetics
bethancol, pilocarpine, carbachol, methacholine
Alzheimer’s Drugs that are AChEi
Rivastigmine, Donepezil, Galantamine; penetrate the CNS
