aspirin starts as a pro-drug and need to be biotrasnformed into what, where
to salicylates in the liver
| 80-90% are bound to plasma protein
74
salicyclates are excreted where
through the kidney
| depends on dose, and urine pH since they are organic acids (pka 3-3.5)
75
low dose half time salicyclates
2-3hrs 1st order
76
high does half time of salicyclates
15-30 hrs 0 order
77
at high doses the liver fails to transform salicylates into what
salicycluric acid and phenolic glucuronide which account for 80% of excretion by the kidney
78
where do metabolites of salicyclates increase
increase in GFP and proximal tubule secretion via reduction

most likely related to ability to decrease PGE2 levels in regions of the brain surrounding the hypothalamus
94
how doe PGEs, PGI2, and LTB4 lower threshold of nociceptors
sensitizing afferent nerve endings to effects of chemical or emchanical stimuli
inhibition will raise threshold of nociception

bleeding
fluid retention, kidney failure
hypertension
97
basics of non-selective reversible NSAIDs
pharmacodynamics not kinetics predict response
indication and efficacy vary
in one is not effective, substitute
each attempt with a dose to reach maximum anti-inflammatory range is about 2 weeks
98
what are the acetic acid derivatives
indomethacin, diclofenac, ketorolac
| inhibit COX, promotes incorporation of unesterified AA into triglycerides to reduce availability
99
indomethacin
can directly inhibit neutrophil motility
| no longer first choice NSAID due to GI toxicity
100
diclofenac
can alter FA transport and reduce intracellular AA
| more potent anti-inflammatory agent than indomethacin
101
ketorolac
primarily used for its strong analgesic properties
| only NSAID approved for parenteral use, uses short term due to more side effects
102
what are the propionic acid derivatives
ibuprofen, naproxen
103
ibuprofen
relatively potent analgesic used in rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout, primary dysmenorrhea
better than indomethacin
104
naproxen
has long plasma half life
more potent than aspirin
directly inhibits leukocytes function and causes less severe GI adverse effects than aspirin
105

cytokines (IL TNFa) released from damaged cells or immune cells
121
anti-TNFa or anit-IL agents bind where and do what
binds to cytokines and prevent them from activating the eicosanoid pathways involved in inflammation
aspirin-triggered lipoxins also block TNFa
122
glucocorticoids
inhibit phospholipase A2 and prevent AA release
limit inflammation by limiting AA inflammatory mediators
123
glucocorticoids are what kind of anti-inflammatory drugs

induce lipocortins on leukocytes to inhibits pro-inflammatory response by activiating lipoxin A4 receptor
repress COX-2 gene and ezyme expression
respress cytokine expression that activates COX-2
