22
Q

H2 Receptor Antagonist drugs

A

ranitidine hydrochloride
famotidine

23
Q

H2 receptor antagonist MOA

A

Suppressed acid stomach secretion

24
Q

H2 receptor antagonist indication

A

GERD, peptic ulcer disease, erosive esophagitis, upper GI bleeding, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, stress ulcer prophylaxis

25
Q

H2 receptor antagonist adverse effects in older populations

A

confusion, disorientation

26
Q

Ranitidine hydrochloride & famotidine adverse effects

A

thrombocytopenia

27
Q

Ranitidine & famotidine interactions

A

-Inhibit absorption for drugs requiring an acidic GI envy’ for absorption
-reduced effectiveness when smoking

28
Q

When taking with antacids, when should you take ranitidine and famotidine

A

1-2 hr before antacids

29
Q

PPI difference from H2 antagonist and antacids

A

PPI is complete HCI secretion blockage. Other two are partial blockage

30
Q

Which one is stronger: H2 antagonist or antacids

A

H2 antagonist

31
Q

PPI examples

A

Lansoprazole, omeprazole, pantoprazole sodium

32
Q

Pantoprazole route

A

IV only

33
Q

Define achlorhydria & its indication

A

temporary state of complete gastric acid secretion blockage, but does not affect food absorption
-good for ulcers

34
Q

PPI indication

A

GI reflux, erosive esophagitis, short term treatment for active duodenal and benign gastric ulcers, Zollinger-Ellison, NSAIDs ulcers, stress ulcer prophylaxis, H. pylori induced infections

35
Q

What to give with PPI for NSAIDs induced ulcers

A

Food

36
Q

PPI adverse effects

A

osteoporosis, C. diff risk, pneumonia, fractures, Mg depletion

37
Q

PPI adverse effects in older population

A

increased risk of acute kidney injury, interstitial nephritis

38
Q

PPI interactions

A

Diazepam and phenytoin: increased serum levels of other drug
Warfarin: bleeding
Ketoconazole, ampicillin, iron salts, digoxin: increased absorption of other drug
Copidogrel: MI risk, death
Sucralfate: delayed absorption of PPI
Food: PPI decreased absorption

39
Q

When to take PPIs

A

Before breakfast to increase effectiveness; 1 hr before meals

40
Q

Miscellaneous acid-controlling drugs

A

sucralfate, misoprostol, simethicone

41
Q

sucralfate indication

A

stress ulcers, peptic ulcer disease

42
Q

sucralfate adverse effect

A

constipation*, dry mouth, nausea

43
Q

when to take sucralfate

A

2 hr before other drugs on empty stomach

44
Q

Sucralfate frequency consideration

A

Short half life; impractical – have to take often

45
Q

Sucralfate interactions

A

Phosphate: decreased phosphate level; used in chronic renal failure

46
Q

T/F: Sucralfate acts systemically

A

False

47
Q

Misoprostol indication

A

prevent NSAIDS induced gastric ulcers

48
Q

what time in the day to take misoprostol

A

at bedtime, with meals

49
Q

High dose of misoprostol indication

Q

How much water to drink with antacids to increase absorption

A

at least 240 mL

53
Q

Mask underlying disease: malignancy, bleeding ulcers

54
Q
