Q

How do prostaglandins work?

A
  • Mediate pain-sensitizing pain receptors
  • Induce inflammation by vasodilatation
  • Fever-influences hypothalamic response to pathogens
  • GI-inhibits acid secretion
  • Renal protection-perfusion/function
  • Involved in regulating platelet aggregation

Q

What is therapeutic actions of ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil)?

A

NSAID
NSAIDs block two enzymes needed for prostaglandin synthesis and
inflammation response
* COX-1–> needed for blood clotting, stomach protection, sodium/water balance in
kidney
* COX-2 –>active when more prostaglandin needed, thought to block vasodilation

17
Q

What are drug to drug acetylsalicylic acid (ASA, Aspirin, Ecotrin)?

A

Salicylates
Anti-coags use

18
Q

What is therapeutic actions of Acetaminophen(Tylenol)?

A

Acts on hypothalamus

hypothalamus to cause sweating and vasodilation; this in turn causes the release of heat and lowers fever.

19
Q

What is indications of Acetaminophen(Tylenol)?

A

Mild to moderate pain relief and reduction of fever

20
Q

What is antidote to Acetaminophen toxicity?

A

acetylcysteine (Acetadote) PO or IV

21
Q

What are adverse effects of Acetaminophen toxicity?

A

Hepatotoxicity

22
Q

What is contra to Acetaminophen toxicity?

A

Allergy to acetaminophen

23
Q

What is cautions to Acetaminophen toxicity?

A

Pregnancy/lactation
Hepatic dysfunction/chronic ETOH

24
Q

What is etanercept(Enbrel)?

A

Disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs

25
Q

What is therapeutic actions of etanercept(Enbrel)?

A

Disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs

  • Neutralizes immune system
  • Goal is to depress overactive immune system, decrease
    inflammation, stop disease progression
26
Q

What are indications of etanercept(Enbrel)?

And pharmacokinetics

A

Disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs

RA, plaque psoriasis
SQ injection

27
Q

What are adverse effects etanercept(Enbrel)?

A

Disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs

Black box warning  Fatal
infections; lymphomas/ other
cancers

28
Q

What are contras of etanercept(Enbrel)?

A

Disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs

*Allergy

  • Active infection(because they block the body’s immune/inflammatory response and serious reactions could occur)
  • Pregnancy/lactation
29
Q

What are cautions of etanercept(Enbrel)?

A

Disease modifying anti rheumatic drugs

  • Liver/renal disease
  • Bone marrow suppression (follow
    labs)
  • Various CNS effects
  • Monitor for worsening of
    demyelinating disorders (MS)
30
Q
