Viral RX Flashcards
Herpes Varicella Zoster Virus Virion
- creep
- tiny spot
- girdle
- poison
- virus particle, proteins
What are 7 ways Antiviral Target virus?
- Entry into host cell.
- Uncoating of viral nucleic acid.
- Synthesis of regulatory proteins.
- Synthesis of DNA or RNA
- Synthesis of structural proteins.
- Assembly of viral particles.
- Release of new virus from host cell.
Describe Acyclovir, the 1st antiviral?
- Structure/Source- guanosine analog (look-alike)
- Mechanism of action
(a) viral kinase adds one phosphorus to acyclovir
(b) human host white cell adds two (DP) and third (TP) phosphorus which activates acyclovir
(c) Tri phosphorus acyclovir inhibits DNA synthesis - Pharmacokinetics used po or iv
- Active against: HSV-1 and 2, VZ virus
- Clinical uses-genital, ocular herpes
- ADRs- very few after po up to 10 years
- Resistance- viral kinase mutation, target of tri-phosphorus acyclovir, DNA polymerase undergoes mutation
How many Herpes DNA viruses and describe the type?
- Herpes simplex (cold sores, genital infections)
- Varicella-Zoster (chicken pox, shingles)
- Cytomegalovirus(CMV)
- EpsteinBar(mononucleosis)
- Herpes Virus Type 6 (roseola)
- Herpes Virus Type 7
MR. HERMERS,
LETS TRY THIS DRUG FOR YOUR COLD SORE. This drug has no effects currently, and effects viral kinase via 1P, you body puts on the DP, and TP?
prodrug of acyclovir.
HIGER Cp levels
2. Mechanism of action
(a) viral kinase adds one phosphorus to acyclovir
(b) human host white cell adds two (DP) and third (TP) phosphorus which activates acyclovir
(c) Tri phosphorus acyclovir inhibits DNA synthesis
- Pharmacokinetics used po or iv
- Active against: HSV-1 and 2, VZ virus
- Clinical uses-genital, ocular herpes
- ADRs- very few after po up to 10 years
- Resistance- viral kinase mutation, target of tri-phosphorus acyclovir, DNA polymerase undergoes mutation
Mr. Ocular,
This drug has longer name with ACETYL AND ESTERR, but similar to Acyclovir?
FARMICOLVIR
diacetyl ester prodrug of 6-deoxypenciclovir, a conversion to peniclovir,
- Mechanism of action
(a) viral kinase adds one phosphorus to acyclovir
(b) human host white cell adds two (DP) and third (TP) phosphorus which activates acyclovir
(c) Tri phosphorus acyclovir inhibits DNA synthesis - Pharmacokinetics used po or iv
- Active against: HSV-1 and 2, VZ virus
- Clinical uses-genital, ocular herpes
- ADRs- very few after po up to 10 years
- Resistance- viral kinase mutation, target of tri-phosphorus acyclovir, DNA polymerase undergoes mutation
Penciclovir
active metabolite of famciclovir
WHich drug is different from the others in this class for recurrent HSV?
Docosanol- RECURRENT
A 22 carbon alcohol that inhibits the fusion between the HSV envelop and the host cell which blocks entry.
Topical cream for prodromal (onset of s/s)
What are the class of drugs for CMV?
Ganciclovir
Foscarnet-
Which drug is unigue and inhibits viral DNA polymerase?
Foscarnet
RESISTANT ACYCLOVIR
inorganic pyrophosphate molecule IV only
Mr. Gangi Ul, 97yo
THis drug will help 100x more than acylclovir, and delay your retinis. Its a guanosine, if you care. BUT we will monitor your LFTS
GANCICLOVIR
1- guanosine analog.
- CMV’s protein kinase phosphotransferase UL97 phosphorylates. Inhibit DNA synthesis.
- po, iv or intraocular implant. CSF levels 50% of Cp levels. Clearance related to CrCl.
- 100x greater activity against CMV compared to acyclovir.
- delay CMV retinitis in AIDS patients, high dose for organ transplant.
- neutropenia in 20-40% of patients, ABN LFTS,
- mutations in the UL97
What is the Anti-influenza Drug inhibits neuramindase?
OSELTAMIVIR
ZANAMIVIRA-SECOND NEURAMINDAASE INHIB
1. Structure-Oseltamivir, analog sialic acid (Anis Star)
- MOA-inhibitor of viral neuraminidase on viral surface. Enzymatic cleavage required for release of new virus from host cell.
. PK- = 80% po dose, cleared UNmetabolized by kidney. - Active against: - INFLU A B
- Clinical- reduces illness by 1-2 days. Reduces the incidence of hospitalizations by 50%. reduces incidence of illness by up to 90%.
- ADR- GI
- Resistance- mutiatin of viral neuraminidase
WHich tricyclic amines drugs block ion channel in virus that blocks replication? MANTA BLOCK PUNCH
Rimantadine
Amantadine
Which Anti hepatiis B agent INDUCES ENZYMES and binds to disrupt cell replication?
Interferon Alfa-IM or SC, cytokine
- MOA- inhibits RNA, mRNA, induc enysmes to chop
- PK- IV, IM, SC
- Active against:5. Clinical- chronic Hep B, C, warts
- ADR- flu like, anemias, neutropenia, thrombo
- Resistance- NONE
Pegylated interferon alpha- addition of polyethylene glycol, increases its mw and prolongs the drug’s time in the body
DZ of Hep
A- seafood raw
B- sharing needles, Harmful
C- Sex, Treatable
