phC Flashcards
isoniazid
inhibits acyl carrier protein reductase +beta ketoacy ACP synthase(inhibits synthesis of mycolic acid of cell wall)
rifampin
inhibits DNA dependent RNA polymerase → orange urine
pyrazinamide
forms pyrazinoic acid→inhibits plasma membrane function
ethambutol
inhibits arabinosyl transferase enzyme→inhibits cell wall synthesis of M tuberculosis
streptomycin
protein synthesis inhibitors(30S ribosomal subunit) taken IM!!!
kanamycin
30S ribosomal subunit inhibitor
cycloserine
inhibits D-alanine racemase and D-alaanine-D-alanine ligase→inhibits cell wall synthesis of tuberculosis
dapson
inhibits dihydropteroate synthetase→inhibits folate synthesis (used with rifampin for M. leprae)
chloroquine
inhibits heme polymerase→cant convert hematin into hemozoin against malaria
mefloquine
inhibits heme polymerase(slower than chloroquine) against malaria
quinine
similar to chloroquine(for P falciparum)
atovaquone
(+proguanil) for P falciparum→inhibits mitochondrial function
proguanil
folate synthesis inhibitors for P falciparum(+atovaquone)
artemether
blood schizonticide, creating free radicals
lumefantrine
+arthemether for P falciparum malaria or chloroquine resistant malaria
primaquine
for recurrent malaria(p. ovale+vivax)
metronidazole
anti-amoebiasis drug, create free radicals within bacterial cell
mebendazole
inhibits polymerizaiton of beta tubulin microtubules(orally)
levamisole
depolarizing NM blockade -paralysis for round worms
ivermectin
enhance GABA effect in worm by inhibiting glutamate transmission
niclosamide
inhibits oxidative phosphorylation for tenia saginata, solium
fluconazole
inhibits C14-alpha-demethylase which converts lanosterol into ergosterol
itraconazole
inhibits C14-alpha-demethylase which converts lanosterol into ergosterol, against dermatophytosis, coccidioidomycosis, histoplasmosis
voriconazole
inhibits C14-alpha-demethylase which converts lanosterol into ergosterol, against invasive aspergillosis, candida esophagitis(AIDS)
clotrimazole
inhibits C14-alpha-demethylase which converts lanosterol into ergosterol, for local use like vaginal candidiasis, tinea infection
amphotericin B
attacks fungal membrane directly by binding to ergosterol producing channels and destroying osmotic integrity+ cascade of oxidative reactions
nystatin
same as amphotericin B→binds to ergosterol and forms pore→ damage fungal membrane directly, used for vaginal candidiasis and diaper rash (TOPICAL USE bc more toxic and not used in systemically, not absorbed from mucous membrane and skin so limited to treatment of superficial candidiasis)
terbinafine
inhibitor of squalene epoxidase(squalene→squalene epoxide→ lanosterol into ergosterol)
flucytosine
inhibits DNA and RNA synthesis for cryptococcal meningitis(+amphotericin B)
caspofungin
inhibition of beta-D-glucan synthase →cell lysis of fungal cell wall
aciclovir
iv/oral/locally
phosphorylated accidentally by viral thymidine kinase→incorporated into DNA molecule and acts to inhibit DNA polymerase by competing with natural nucleotides
valaciclovir
taken orally**
acyclovir prodrug
ganciclovir
IV!!
guanosine analog like acyclovir
valganciclovir
PO!!
prodrug of ganciclovir
foscarnet
viral DNA polymerase inhibitors for Herpes family(CMV,VZV, HSV), NG for children
cidofovir
inhibits viral DNA polymerase (taken IV)
kind of like foscarnet for herpes meds
ribavirin
against RSV(AEROSOL, iv,po), RNA pol inhibitor
palivizumab
IM, monoclonal antibody against RSV
oseltamivir
=tamiflu(PO), against influenza virus A+B, inhibits neuraminidase
zidovudine
thyidine analogue, nucloside reverse transcriptase inhibitors
lamivudine
cytidine analogue of nucleoside reverst transcriptase inhibitors for HIV
emtricitabine
cytidine analogue of nucleoside RTI
tenofovir
nucleotide analogue of nucleotide RTI; NO CNS entry
abacavir
purine analogue of nucleotide RTI
etravirine
NNRTI, only against HIV-1
darunavir
protease inhibitors of HIV-cant cleave viral polyprotein into active protein to make new viral particles
ritonavir
protease inhibitors of HIV(most commonly used)
lopinavir
protease inhibitors of HIV
maraviroc
blocks CCR5 coreceptor that works with gp120 for HIV molecule to come inside host cell
