sketchy pharm Flashcards
What type of receptor is the one for the adrenal medulla?
NICOTINIC acetylcholine (for producing Epi/Norepi and shit)
M1
CNS, Enteric (GI) nervous system—Gq (IP3/DAG)
M2
Heart—namely decreasing (Atria, SA, AV)—it is Gi after all
M3
Glands, bladder, smooth muscles, smooth muscle of eye
Also VESSELS—-causes release of Nitric oxide from endothelial cells and you get more cGMP and muscarinic effects. So you vasodilate
Nicotinic vs Muscarinic receptors
Nicotinic: Ion channels
M1: Gq (IP3/DAG)
M2: Gi (lowering cAMP)
M3: Gq (IP3/DAG)
What happens to M3 in atherosclerosis
the vascular epithelial damage from atherosclerosis stimualtes muscarinic receptors and you get VASOCONSTRICTION (instead of dilation)
Bethanechol
Cholemimetic. Mostly used for secretion and motor activation of gut
(eg neurogenic ileus, post op ileus–NONobstructive GI)
Or to increase urinary secretion (again NONobstructive)
Pilocarpine
Increases salivation
Treat glaucoma (reduce IOP by contracting ciliary body—relaxing it and accomodating lens—so muscle basedi t sounds like)
also causes miosis (activating sphincter pupil muscle in acute angle closure glaucoma)
Carbachol
both muscarinic and nicotinic
Methacholine
muscarinic stimulant; contracts bronchial smooth muscle tree-> exacerbate COPD and asthma
Vareniciline
partial nicotinic agonist used for smoking cessation (provides some degree of stimulation to get rid of craving Im guessing)
Tertiary vs Quatenary Acetylcholine esterase inhibitors and significance
Quatenary can’t cross the BBB (pyrido,neo,edrophonium)
Tertiary can (Physostigmine)
Long term management of MG
Pyridostigmine
Neostigmine less used
Edrophonium for the challenge aka tensilon test
Nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents
curare compounds
tubocurarine, pancuronium, cistracurium
Reverse effects with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors afterwards.
Depolarizing NM block agent
Succinylcholine (doesn’t get metabolized, aggressively binds)—PHASE S1 block of depolarizing blockade. IRREVERSIBLE (cholinesterase inhibitors wont do shit)
phase 2 it will
Neostigmine post surgery
Neostigmine for post op bladder and urinary retention
Physosigmine use
used for atropine overdose (Jimson weed, or belladonna flower)—competitive block so can be overcome
Type of paralysis in acetylcholine esterase inhibitor overdose
flaccid paralysis (BB SLUDGE guy, could be frmo organophosphates for example)
Use of pralidoxime & atropine
regeneration of choline esterase; affects NICOTINIC components, CANT CROSS BBB
Atropine: CAN cross BBB, but can’t affect nicotinic receptors (so can’t affect paralysis)
Why do you need to traet organopsophate-choliensterase complex fast?
“Aging” effect where the bond becomes irreversible
Galnatime, Rivasgmine, Donepezil
all acetylcholinesterase inhibitors that can treat Alzheimers
Antimuscarinic blockers
Atropine Ipratropium Tiotropium Oxybutynin Tolterodine Scoloplamine Benzotropine Trihexylphenidyl obviously side effects for shit like TCAs too
Major side effects of TMP-SMX (or at least unique)
Pancytopenia, megaloblastic anemia, teratagogenic (neural tube defects), interstital nephritis, Renal tubular acidosis (type IV), CYP450 inhibitor, photosensitivity, kernicterus, SJS, hemolytic anemia g6pd
major side effect Ethambutol
optic neuritis (red green colorblindness)
major sideeffect pyrazinamide
tb drug, hyperuricemia
major side effect dapsone
leprosy drug; agranulocytosis, also hemolytic anemia with g6pd
mycobacter avium tx
macrolide and ethambutol
rifampin big side effects
CYP450 inducer, orange red body fluid
isonazide big side effects
b6 deficiency (so give pyrixodine, this is what give hte peripheral neuropathy), worse side effects in slow acetylators, anion gap metabolic acidosis, drug induced lupus, CYP450 inhibitor
rifampin prophylaxis uses
n meningi, h influ
drugs for myco leprae
dapsone, rifampin, maybe add clofazamine if its the major leprosy
major side effects aminoglycoside and major resistance
ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity, ATN, neuromusc blockade (avoid in mg), teratogen (ototoxicity)
resistance is acetylation enzyme
of note it is the only ribosome guy that is bacteriocidal, IV
Linezolid major side effects
neutropenia, serotonin syndrome (minor MAOi effect), optic neuropathy, peripheral neuropathy
major Chloramphenicol side effects
gray baby syndrome, aplastic anemia, regular anemia
marcolide big side effects
cyp450 inhibitor, prolong qt, hepatitis and jaundice
tetracycline big side effects and resistance
resistance: efflux pumps and altering the ribosome
adverse rxn is teeth skin discoloration (binding to calcium, tertaogenic) fanconi syndrome (esp expired tetracyclines; type II renal tubular acidosis)
daptomycin use and major side effects, moa
can use for VRE. Can’t use for pneumonia (surfactant destroys it)
moa is inserting its tail into bacterial cell wall/membrane?
major side effects: myopathy, rhabdomyolysis (monitor CK)
major side effects panems
skin rash, GI, reduce seizure threshold (esp imipeneum with renal failure). good drugs for penicilin allergies
Vancomycin major side effects
red man syndrome (histamine mediated)
can increase risk of ototoxicity with aminoglycosides
thrombophelitis
major side effects griseofulvin, moa
grnaulocytopenia, CYP450 inducer—bind microtubule and halt mitosis.
major side effects Echniocandins (what are these), moa
these are the fungins that alter B2 glucan. ONLY CELL WALL GUYS. adverse rxn is histamine release in IV
teribafine moa, adverse rxn
inhibit fungal sequeale epoxidase, get squalene accumulation (is toxic)
hepatotoxicity
moa major side effects of azoles, what one can you use for PCOS/Cushing/hirsutism shit
inhibit ergesterol synthesis
adverse rxn is CYP450 inhibitor (esp voriconazole, this guy also causes blurry flashes of light and color blindness)
fluconazole is your crypt meningitis guy
voriconazole is your invasive aspergillis and candida esophagitis guy
itraconazole is more systemic dimorphics and tinea
Ketoconazole: Hirsutism guy. inhibits 1720 desmolase (anti androgen effect, 1st step in steroid syn)
major side effects of flouroquinolones, name a use or two
complicated pseudomonas; osteomyeloitis sickle cell, pyelonephritis, anthrax

major side effect amphotericin
infusion related headache, hypotension, fever, chills, thrombophelitis cns admin (intrathecal): fever, seizure, neuro damage Renal damage (prerenal azotemia, hypokalemic type 1 tubualr injury, can manage with magnesium I think also do volume expansion with saline before admin). anemia from epo issues
