Q

H2 antihistamines. effect on cAMP?

A

↓ adenylyl cyclase activity → ↓ cAMP levels –> ↓ protein kinase A activity → ↓ phosphorylation and activation of H+/K+ ATPase → ↓ gastric acid (H+) secretion

Q

Esomeprazole
Pantoprazole 
Lansoprazole, dexlansoprazole 
Rabeprazole
17
Q

Proton pump inhibitors. What drugs have the highest bioavailability and achieve the highest plasma levels?

A

Lansoprazole, dexlansoprazole

18
Q

Proton pump inhibitors. Most gastro-specific drug?

A

Pantoprazole

19
Q

Administration of PPI. Daytime?

A

1 Tablet/day taken in the morning on an empty stomach

20
Q

PPI. Reverse or nonrevers inhibition?

A

irreversible inhibition of H+/K+ATPase in parietal cells → increases stomach pH

21
Q

Degree of gastric acid supression by PPI?

A

Complete suppression of gastric acid secretion

22
Q

why PPI best before meal?

A

PPIs are given in an inactive form, which is activated and takes effect in an acidic environment (e.g., the canaliculi of the apical parietal cells). The lower the pH level is, the higher the enrichment of PPIs in the parietal cells (high specificity of PPIs). The highest levels of H+/K+ ATPase enzyme activity are reached in the parietal cell after a period of prolonged fasting. Therefore, administering PPIs before the first meal of the day achieves highest efficacy.

23
Q

PPI. GI complications?

……

↑ Risk of C. difficile infection

Reactive hypergastrinemia

↓ Absorption of iron and vitamin B12

↓ Absorption of calcium and magnesium → ↑ risk of osteoporosis in long-term use→ ↑ risk of fractures in elderly individuals

A

Nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, flatulence

27
Q

PPI. GI complications?

Nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, flatulence

↑ Risk of C. difficile infection

Reactive hypergastrinemia

↓ Absorption of iron and vitamin B12

A

↓ Absorption of calcium and magnesium → ↑ risk of osteoporosis in long-term use→ ↑ risk of fractures in elderly individuals

28
Q

Why PPI cause decr Ca absorption?

A

Because the gastric environment becomes less acidic, dietary calcium remains bound to oxalate, resulting in reduced absorption in the duodenum and jejunum.

29
Q

PPI neurological adverse?

A

Lightheadedness, headaches

Possibly increased risk of developing cognitive impairment/dementia

30
Q

PPI renal?

A

in rare cases, acute interstitial nephritis

31
Q

PPI on lungs?

A

↑ Risk of pneumonia;

Particularly in the 30 days after starting therapy; possibly due to aspiration of gastric content containing a larger number of bacteria than usual following suppression of gastric acid
