Amiloride.
To remember which CYP is most involved with codeine: “coDeine”
The CYP 2D6 enzyme pathway is responsible for the metabolism of codeine to morphine, its active metabolite. Individuals with poor activity of this enzyme pathway are likely to experience treatment failure with codeine therapy.
TrueLearn Insight : Mnemonic for 2D6 and codeine: coDeine has 2 letters, followed by a “D”, then 4 more letters (2 + 4 = 6).
To differentiate GABAA from GABAB, remember
Baclofen for GABAB and Anesthetics for GABAA.
Drugs that typically follow zero-order kinetics are THE PAW:
theophylline, heparin, ethanol, phenytoin, aspirin, warfarin.
A mnemonic to recall the beta-1 selective beta-blockers is “BEAM”
(β1, bisoprolol, betaxolol, esmolol, atenolol, acebutolol, metoprolol).
from A-M -> B1 selective (except Labetalol “nonselective B” & Carvedilol “nonselective B & A1 selective blocker”
