19
Q

What is an NSAID derived from salicylic acid?

A

20
Q

What is an NSAID derived from Non-Selective COX inhibitor?

A

Ibuprofen, Indomethacin, Naproxen

21
Q

What is an NSAIDthat is a COX-2 specific inhibitor?

22
Q

What is an analgesic, antipyretic NSAID?

A

Acetaminophen

23
Q

What drug is an anti-IgE antibody and what is its MOA?

25
What are the 2nd generation antihistamines?
Cetirizine, Fexofenadine, Loratadine

What drug treats COPD and what is its MOA?
Roflumilast, selectively inhibits PDE4
27
What are the TNF-alpha inhibitor drugs?
Etancercept, Infliximab, Adalimumab, Certolizumab Pegol
28
Which of the TNF-alpha drugs is not a monoclonal antibody?
Etancercept
