Cards

Term

Chlor-promazine (Thorazine)

-category

-mode of action

-effect

-side effects

Definition

-Phenothiazine

--Dopamine (D2) antagonist

-Antipsychotic

-TCA side effects (dirty drug)

Term

Pro-Methazine (Phenergan)

-category

-mode of action

-effect

Definition

-phenothiazine

-anti-histamine, blocks M, blocks H1 in brain

-treats pruitis (itching); motion sickness; and acts as a sedative (TCA like)

Term

Pro-Chlor-Perazine (Compazine)

-category

-mode of action

-effect

Definition

-Phenothiazine

-TCA-like, D2 blocker

-for drug induced nausea and migraine (but better to use sertrons aka 5-HT3 blockers)

Term

Flu-Phenazine (Permitil) and Tri-Fluo-Perazine (Stelazine)

-category

-mode of action

-effect

Definition

-Phenothiazines

-TCA like (D2 blocker)

-long-term antipsychotic for non-compliant patients

 

Term
4 categories of neuroleptic (antipsychotic) drugs
Definition

-Phenothiazines (TCA like)

-Butyrophenones

-Thioxanthenes

-Benzamides

 

Term

Haloperidol

-category

-mode of action

-effect

-side effects

Definition

-Butryophenones

-More selective D2 blocker without TCA side effects

-antipsychotic

-D2 blocker related: extrapyramidal symptoms (Parkinson-like, motor side effects), the worst being tardive dyskinesia which is irreversible

 

Term

Pseudo Parkinsonism drugs

-mode of action

-four examples

Definition

-decrease in dopamine leads to increase in Ach, so these drugs counter that with atropine, anti-cholinergenic effects

-Benztropine (esp for dystonia), Trihexyphenidyl (also anti M), Diphenhydramine (Benadryl, also antihistamine), Amantadine

Term

Clozapine (Di-Benzo-diazepine)

-Category

-Mode of action

-Effects

-Side effects

-Metabolism

Definition

-Atypical neuroleptic (all P450 metabolized)

-D4 and 5-HT2 antagonists (high affinity) and low affinity D2 antagonist.

-Antipsychotic (effective against negative symptoms like withdrawal...as opposed to positive symptoms like hearing voices)

-TCA-like: sedation (H2 blocker), orthostasis/reflex tackycardia (β1 blocker), QT prolongation (K+ channel blocker) hypersalivation (rare for a TCA), hyperthermia (anticholinergic effect in periphery) and seizures (due to hyperthermia), but less EPS (extra pyramidal, Parkinson-like symptoms like dystonia etc.); Agranulocytosis: supressed red blood cell production needing blood monitoring; weight gain (10 by 10 = 10 lbs by 10 weeks)

-P450 1A2 like Xanthines

Term

Olanzapine

-category

-effects

-side effects

-metabolism

Definition

-Atypical neuroleptic

-D4 and 5-HT2 antagonists (high affinity) and low affinity D2 antagonist.

-Antipsychotic (effective against negative symptoms like withdrawal...as opposed to positive symptoms like hearing voices)...NO Agranulocytosis!

-TCA-like: sedation (H2 blocker), orthostasis/reflex tackycardia (β1 blocker), QT prolongation (K+ channel blocker) hypersalivation (rare for a TCA), hyperthermia (anticholinergic effect in periphery) and seizures (due to hyperthermia), but less EPS (extra pyramidal, Parkinson-like symptoms like dystonia etc.); ; weight gain (10 by 10 = 10 lbs by 10 weeks)

-P450 1A2 like Xanthines

Term

Ziprasidone (Geodon)

-Mode of action

-Effect

-Side effect

Definition

-5-HT2 antagonist and NASRI (SNRI) reuptake inhibitor (little effect on D2 receptor)

-Anti-depressant

-QT prolongation (K+ channel blocker)

Term

Quetiapine

-Category

-Effect

-Side effects

Definition

-Atypical neuroleptic

-anti-psychotic

-Sedating, cataract development, hypothyroidism

Term

Aripiprazole (Abilify)

-Mode of action

-Effect

-Side effect?

-Metabolism

Definition

-5HT2 antagonist; 5HT1A partial agonist (Buspirone-like); D2 partial agonist

-antipsychotic

-less weight gain

-P450 2D6 & 3A4

Term

Parkinson's therapy

-3 part way of increasing dopamine

Definition

-Carbidopa (Decarboxylase Inhibitor that stays in blood, allowing Levodopa to pass blood brain barrier before being converted to dopamine which cannot pass barrier)

-Levadopa

-Entacapone (COMT ie methyl transferase inhibitor, which stops Levadopa from being metabolized in the brain)

-Stalevo (combines all three)

 

Term

Selegeline (Antiparkin)

-Mode of action

-Effect

Definition

-MAO-B (metabolizes dopamine) inhibitor

-treats Parkinson disease by increasing dopamine levels

Term

Bromcriptine and Pergolide

-Category

-Mode of action

-Effect

-Side effects

Definition

-Ergotamine derivatives

-Dopamine receptor agonists

-psychosis, nausea and vomitting (D2 agonist in CRTZ), orthostatic hypotension (usually α1 blocker, but also D2 agonist in periphery causes vasodilation), fibrosis (pulmonary and retroperitoneal), vasospasm and GI ulceration

 

Term

Pramipexole and Ropinrole

-Category

-Mode of action

-effect

-Side effects

Definition

-Non-ergotamine derivatives

-Dopamine receptor agonists

-Anti-Parkinson with NO fibrosis or vasospasms

-Same as erotamine derivatives (psychosis, N&V, orthostatic hypotension, GI ulceration) with NO fibrosis or vasospasms
