16
Q

glaucoma drugs do what

A

decrease IOP via decrease amt of aqueous humor (inhibit synthesis/secretion or increase drainage)

17
Q

a-agonists

A

epinephrine, brimonidine

18
Q

a-agonsit that works on a1

A

epinephrein

19
Q

aagonst that works on a2

A

brimonidine

20
Q

a-agonists mechanism

A

decrease aaeuos humor syntehsis via vasoconstriciont (epinephrien)
decrease aqeuos humor synthesis (brimonidine

21
Q

SE of epinephrine

A

mydriasis (a1): do not use in closed acute angle glaucoma

22
Q

SE of brimonidine (a2)

A

blurry vision, ocular hyperemia, foreign body sensation, ocular allergic reactions, ocular pruritus

23
Q

B blcokers for glaucoma

A

timolol, betaxolol, carteolol

24
Q

b blockers do what

A

decrase aqeous humor synthesis

25
Q

acetazolamdie

A

decrease acequos humor synthesis via inhbition of carbonic anhdyrase which decreass formation of hco3 in ciliary body, leading to decrease na and fluid transport

26
Q

cholinomimetics (M3)

A

direct (pilocarpine, carbachol)

indirect (physostigmine, echothiophate)

27
Q

Increase outflow of aqous humor via contraction of ciiliary msucle and opening of trabelcular meshwork

A

cholinomimetics

28
Q

cholinomimetics se

A

miosis (contractio nof pupillary sphincter muscles) and cytoplasm (contraction of ciliary muscle)

29
Q

Prostagalndins

A

bimatoprost, latanoprost (PGF2a)

30
Q

bimatoprost, latanoprost mechanism

A

increase outflow of aqous humor via decrease resitance of flow through uveoscleral pathway

31
Q

SE of prostaglands: bimatoprost, latanoprost

A

darkens color of iris (browning), eyelash growth; also pr

32
Q

preferred treamtn of OAG

A

prostaglandin

33
Q

first line for restless leg syndrome

A

dopamine agonist (pramiprexole)

34
Q

restless leg syndrome describe

A

uncomfortable sensation in legs accompanied by urge to move them
