Domperidone
Prokinetic - enhance GI motility
- Dopamine antagonist, enhances Ach release
- inhibit emesis via CTZ (chemoreceptor trigger zone)
- no extrapyramidal effects, but can increase prolactin release
Metoclopramide
Prokinetic AND Antiemetic
- Dopamine antagonist
- doesn’t affect lower GI motility
- also a 5-HT3 antagonist/5-HT4 agonist (increase ACh)
- extrapyramidal effects –> tardive dyskinesia
Dicyclomine
Antispasmodic - decrease GI motility
- block M2 cholinergic receptor in enteric plexus to inhibit motility
- limited side effects at low dose
- high doses cause dry mouth, visual disturbance, constipation, urinary retention
Hycosamine
Antispasmodic - inhibits GI motility
- block M2 cholinergic receptor in enteric plexus to inhibit motility
- limited side effects at low dose
- high doses cause dry mouth, visual disturbance, constipation, urinary retention
Meclizine
Antiemetic - Antihistamine (H1R Antagonist)
- depress labyrinth excitability in ear
- can cause CNS depression
- good for motion sickness
Doxylamine (+ pyridoxine)
Antiemetic - Antihistamine (H1R Antagonist)
- depress labyrinth excitability in ear
- can cause CNS depression
- good for motion sickness
Diphenhydramine
Antiemetic - Antihistamine (H1R Antagonist)
- depress labyrinth excitability in ear
- can cause CNS depression
- good for motion sickness
Promethazine
Antiemetic - Antihistamine (H1R Antagonist)
- ALSO BLOCKS D2 RECEPTORS
- depress labyrinth excitability in ear
- can cause CNS depression
- good for motion sickness
Scopolamine
Antimuscarinic Antiemetic
- block M2 receptors in CTZ
- anti-muscarinic side effects (dry mouth, constipation, hallucination, fever)
Prochlorperazine
Antimuscarinic Antiemetic
- block M2 receptors in CTZ
- anti-muscarinic side effects (dry mouth, constipation, hallucination, fever)
Ondansetron
5-HT Receptor Antagonist (Antiemetic)
- treats N/V post-op or in chemo
- selective 5-HT3 antagonist
- itch, rash, constipation, fever
Bismuth
Antidiarrheal
- forms salicylic acid and a bismuth clay in stomach acid to absorb water and protect stomach
- treats Traveler’s diarrhea
- blackens stool and may darken tongue
Loperamide
Antidiarrheal
- Mu opioid receptor agonist (decrease intestinal motility and increase absorption)
- low abuse potential, low CNS penetration
- use for less than 48 hrs, can cause CNS depression
- don’t use with inflammatory bowel disease
Anthraquinone
Laxative
- causes cramping and inflammation
- can get into breast milk
- can cause “Lazy Bowel Syndrome” with abuse
Diphenylmethane
Laxative
- can cause bowel inflammation
Aspirin
NSAID (Anti-inflammatory)
- irreversible COX1 and COX2 inhibitor
- inhibits COX1 at low dose, both at high dose
- platelet inhibition and vasodilation at low doses
- causes gastric ulcers, bleeding, Reyes syndrome, hepatotoxicity
- no for kids with viral infections (Reyes / CNS)
- no in pregnancy (decrease placental volume) or gout
- no tolerance
Ibuprofen
NSAID (Anti-inflammatory)
- nonselective COX1 and COX2 reversible inhibitor
- causes gastric ulcers, MI, stroke, HF, bleeding, renal impairment
- no in pregnancy or gout
- no tolerance
