Cards

Term
morphology of stratum corneum
Definition
non-living cells
no nuclei
no organells
fibrous proteins
disulfide cross links
intercellular hydrophobic lipids
Term
3 barriers of absorption into the skin
Definition
nature of the drug: must be soluble, better absorbed if lipophilic

behavior of vehicle: hydrating or not

status of skin: resistance to absorption lost in disease
Term
how much topical covers the average adult body
Definition
30g
Term
anatomic changes that effect topical drugs 3
Definition
permeability is inversley proportional to thickness of stratum corneum

differences in lipid concentration affect absorption

better penetration on face and between folds of skin
Term
abornmal changes in skin and how they affect topical medications
Definition
stratum corneum abnormal or barrier function lost

topical absorption is increased and make cause toxicity (esp steroids)
Term
how hydration effects topical medications, how it can be adusted
Definition
absorption is increased with hydration
water is produced by inhibiting transepidermal loss of water

hydration can be induced by occlusion with impermeable film, lipophilic occlusive vehicles (ointment), soaking dry dkin before occlusion
Term
best vehicles for acute and chronic inflammation
Definition
acute: aqueous drying prep
chronic: hydrating prep
Term
function and use of soak
Definition
easiest method of drying acute preperations, draw water out
Term
function and use of lotions
Definition
power in water suspension and solutions dissolved in solvent ideal for hairy areas and between folds
Term
function and use of cream or oil in water emulsion
Definition
absorbable in most cosmetically acceptable way to joint
Term
function and use of ointment water in oil emulsion
Definition
most effective for dry scaily erruptions, greasy
Term
how does age adjust topical med dosing
Definition
kids have more surface area to mass than adults so same amount of drug increases systemic dose
Term
6 topical antibiotics and their administration
Definition
triple antibiotic OTC (neosporin): neomycin, bacitracin, polymyxin B

neosporin G Rx: neomycin, gramicidin

mupirocin Rx

providone-iodine (betadine) OTC: cream, spray, scrub, solution

hexachlorophene Rx: solution

chlordexidine OTC: solution
Term
which 2 topical antibiotics cause toxicity
Definition
neosporin G: neomycin, gramicidin can be toxicic

hexachlorophene: can cause CNS toxicity
Term
which topical antibiotics are used in minor cuts, scrapes, burns 2
Definition
triple antibiotics
neosporin G
Term
which topical antibiotics are used in wound cleaning or scrib 3
Definition
providone-iodine
chlordexidine
hexachlorophene
Term
which topical antibiotic is used for impetigo (S. pyrogenes)
Definition
mupirocin
Term
how do you decide which topical steroid to use 5
Definition
based on potency

absorption varies in different body areas

site of involvement: hydracortizone is weak on face

severity of disease

follow more potent agent by less potent
Term
3 types of topical corticosteroids and their drug
Definition
high potency: betamethasone diporpionate

intermediate: triamcinolone acetate

low potency: hydrocortisone
Term
use of topical corticosteroids 3
Definition
contact dermatitis - short term
to
lupus - long term

adjunct for dermatitis: H1 blockers normally, sometimes oral glucocorticoids

so anything
Term
topical toxicities of topical corticosteroids 3
Definition
skin atrophy
aceniform eruptions
hypopigmentation of pigmented skin
Term
systemic toxicities of topical corticosteroids 3
Definition
supression of hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis

growth retardation in small children
Term
what drugs are retinoids 2
Definition
treninoin: isotrentinoin (acutane)
retinoic acid
Term
MOA retinoids, 4 effects
Definition
derivative of retinol cause vitamin A activity

influence cell proliferation, differentiation, inflammation, sebum production

mediated through NUCLEAR ACID RECEPTORS (RARs) of thyroid/steroid super family of receptors

receptors bind retinoids and SNA and act as TF to increase transcription
Term
MOA trentinoin
Definition
reduce hyperkeratinization that causes microcomedone formation of acne lesions
Term
trentinoin: onset
Definition
response can take up to 4mo
Term
SE trentinoin 7
Definition
erythema
peeling
burning
stinging
phototoxicity
decrease activity with time
if oral treatogen
Term
MOA isotretinoin
Definition
sebum synthesis reduces propionibacterium acnes (microbe causing inflammation) reducing microdome formation
Term
isotretinoin administration and use
Definition
oral for severe nodular acne, acne unresponsive to antibiotics
Term
SE isotretinoin 7
Definition
mucous membrane dryness

dry eyes

conjunctivitis

photosensitivity

hyperlipidemia

depressive episodes

teratogenicity if in first 3wk of pregnancy: spontaneous abortion in 1.3 (must have negative pregnancy test and 2 forms BC before starting)
Term
acne treatments 10
Definition
benzyl peroxide
erythromycin solution
clindamycin solution
abrasive scrubs
washes with proviodine-iodine
tretnoin
systemic: isotrentinoin, erythromycin, minocycline, tetracycline
Term
use of retinoic acid
Definition
skin peels
Term
morphology of psoriasis
Definition
chronic scaling of skin due to keratinocyte hyperproliferation
Term
etretinate: MOA and use
Definition
aromatic retinoid

used for inflammatory psoriasis (pustular, erythodermic)
Term
etretinate: half life, distribution
Definition
t1/2 100d
accumulate in fatty tissue
in plasma 2-3y after DC
Term
etretinate SE 5
Definition
hari loss
sticky skin
bruising
liver function abnormalities
teratogen: never in females of child bearing age, if so use BC for 3y after DC
Term
methoxsalen MOA
Definition
PUVA promotes melanogenesis of skin
pigmentation is due to transfer of melanosomes from melanocytes to epidermal cells
Term
