Definition
prostacyclin
Term

Definition
prostaglandin
Term

Definition
thromboxane
Term

Term
ASA MOA
Definition
irreversitly inhibits COX by acetylation which dec synthesis of TXA2 and PG
Term
ASA clinical use
Definition
low dose = platelet aggregation dec
intermediate = antipyretic and analgesic
- high dose = anti-inflammatory
Term
ASA toxicity
Definition
gastric ulcer, hyperventilation, tinnitus, acute renal failure, interstitial nephritis and upper GI bleeding; Reye's
Term
NSAIDS
- names
- MOA
Definition
- ibuprofen, naproxen, indomethacin, ketorlac
- reversibly inhibit COX, block PG synthesis
Term
NSAIDS
- use
- toxicity
Definition
- antipyretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory; close PDA = indo
- renal damage, fluid retention, aplastic anemia, GI distress, ulcers
Term
COX2 inhibitors
- use
- toxicity
Definition
- RA and OA; gastritis or ulcers
- inc risk of thrombosis, sulfa allergy, less toxicity to GI mucosa
Term
acetaminophen
- MOA
- use
Definition
- reversibly inhibits COX most lyin CNS, inactivated peripherally
- antipyretic, analgesic; NO ANTI-INFLAMM
Term
acetaminophen
- toxicity
- OD tx
Definition
- hepatic necrosis
- N-acetylcystein
Term
bisphosphonates
- names
- MOA
Definition
- etidronate, pamidronate, alendronate, risendronate, zolendronate
- inhibits osteoclatic activity -> reduce formation and serration of hydroxyapatite
Term
bisphosphonates
- use
- toxicity
Definition
- malignancy ass hypercalcemia, Paget's, postmenopausal osteoporosis
- corrosive esophagitis, nausea, diarrhea, osteonecrosis of jaw
Term
acute gout drugs
Definition
colchicine, NSAIDS
Term
chronic gout drugs
Definition
probenecid, allopurinol, febuxostat
Term
probenecid
Definition
inhibits reabsorption of uric acid in PCT; inhibits secretion of penicillin
Term
allopurinol
Definition
inhibits xanthing oxidase
Term
also used in lymphoma and leukemia to prevent tumor lysis
Definition
allopurinol
Term
increases concentrations of azathioprine and 6-MP
Definition
allopurinol
Term
febuxostat
Definition
inhibits xanthine oxidase
Term
colchicine
Definition
stabilizes tubulin to inhibit polymerization, imairing leukocyte chemotaxis and degranulation; GI SE if given orally
