16
Q

what’s relationship between food and montelukast

A

decreases bioavailability by 40%

17
Q

where is montelukast metabolized

18
Q

what enzymes is montelukast metabolized by

19
Q

montelukast side effects

A

GI, nausea, vomiting, CNS, mild headaches, hepatitis

20
Q

Montelukast is used as a treatment for which asthma

A

aspirin induced b/c if you block COX, metabolism of intracellular lipids moves to leukotrienes, so montelukast is used as treatment for this

21
Q

Disodium cromoglycate pharmacodynamics

A

-inhibits chloride channels and calcium flux
which reduces release of preformed cytokines from T cells and eosinophils
-suppresses effects of kinins on inflammatory cells

22
Q

diphenhydramine half life

23
Q

fexofenadine half life

24
Q

how are H1 antagonists metabolized

25
Q

do anti- H1 receptors enter CNS

26
Q

antihistamine un obvious side effects

A

headaches; GI disturbances

27
Q

Histamine drug-drug interactions

A

inhibitors of metabolism prolong QT and lead to VT

28
Q

Mepolizumab

29
Q

Omalizumab

A

binds to Fc portion of IgE

30
Q

4 contraindications for asthmatics

A

beta blockers
cholinergics
adenosine
ACE-I

31

disodium cromoglycate indications (2)

A

asthma and rhinits

32
Q

Epoprostenol and Trioprostenol are what class of drugs

A

prostacyclin analogs that lead to vasodilation

33
