Q

Describe and Demonstrate the Triple Response of Histamine

A
  1. Histamine-induced post-capillary venule dilation engorges local microvasculature with blood, initiates repair processes in damaged area, causes erythema (red spot)
  2. Histamine induces endothelial cell contraction and separation, release of plasma proteins and fluids from PCV, edema (wheal)
  3. Histamine depolarizes afferent nerve terminal, itching/pain (flare)

21
Q

Preventing Mast Cell Degranulation

A

Induced by binding of an antigen to the IgE/Fc receptor complex on mast cells

22
Q

Functional Histamine Antagonists

A

Act on different pathway to counteract effects of histamine

23
Q

H1 Anti-histamines

A

H1 receptor antagonists
Inverse agonists
Bind to inactive state and shifts the equilibrium towards inactive

24
Q

H1 Receptors 2 States

A
  1. Active
  2. Inactive
    Basal State: receptor tends toward constitutive activation
25
Q

1st Generation Histamines

A

Neutral at physiologic pH
Cross BBB to block H1 receptors in the CNS
CNS depression (drowsiness)
May additionally bind cholinergic, a-adrenergic, and 5HT receptors at standard doses (dry mouth)

26
Q

2nd Generation Histamines

A

Ionized at physiologic pH
Does not readily cross the BBB
Less CNS depression (drowsiness)
H1-selective, less anticholinergic effects (dry mouth)

27
Q

1st Generation Ethanolamines

A

Diphenhydramine

Dimenhydrinate

28
Q

Diphenhydramine

A

Given parentally to improve anti-psychotic-induced Parkinsonism movement disorder

Biggest sedative effect
Decrease itch
1st generation Ethanolamines

29
Q

Dimenhydrinate

A

Similar to dephenhydramine
Used recreationally as OTC hallucinogens due to narrow therapeutic index
Treats motion sickness

30
Q

1st Generation Alkylamines

A

Chropheniramine

31
Q

Chlorpheniramine

A 
least sedating 1st generation for this characteristic

A
  1. Sedation
  2. Dry Mouth
    Ex. diphenhydramine
48
Q

What metabolizes most antihistamines?

A
