Question

Danazol

Answer 1

Anti-progestin - Weak progestin, androgen and glucocorticoid → - --suppresses ovarian function -treat Endometriosis** Adverse: -hirsutism, deepening voice, acne, oily skin Contra: - liver dysfunction - pregnancy or breastfeeding

Answer 2

-combo of estrogen & spironolactone derivative --mineralcorticoid antagonist - ↓ water retention → reduces PMDD symptoms - very low androgenic properties - Inhibit ovulation → no LH surge - ↓ implantation → change cervical mucosa & endometrium - discontinuation → withdrawal bleeding at end of cycle - ↓ endometrial & ovarian cancer - ↓ acne - ↓ PCOS ADVERSE: estrogen → weight gain, nausea, edema Progestin → weight gain & depression ***-thromboembolic & clotting disorders***** --↑ synthesis of coagulation factors & fibrinogen --↑ risk of thromboembolic and clotting disorders --↑ risk if >35 and smoke -mild HTN -Migraine (may be warning of stroke) -Teratogenic - 1st trimester -↓ Fertility → gonadotropin for 3 months after stopping -Breast feeding ABSOLUTE CI: - *Thromboembolic phenomena - *estrogen dependent neoplasms - thrombophlebitis - cerebrovascular disorders - pregnancy

Answer 3

Androgen Virilizing (Androgenic) effects: - spermatogenesis - sexual development Anabolic effects: - ↑ bone density - *↑ AA incorporation into muscle - ↑ RBC mass - antagonize catabolic effects of glucocorticoids MEN → testicular deficiency -avoid use for impotence in aging → ↑ risk prostate cancer FEMALES → hypopituitarism (estrogen & androgens -BOTH → protein loss ``` Adverse effects: MEN: -Inhibits release of LH and FSH --↓ testosterone production --↓ spermatogenesis WOMEN: -masculinization- deep voice, clitoral enlargement -loss of gonadotropins (atrophy of breast & uterus) -pregnant → pseudo-hermaphroditism BOTH -oily skin, acne -↓ HDL -psychological changes→ aggression, depression, psychosis ``` CI -children → closes epiphyseal plate

Answer 4

Androgen synthesis inhibitor -antifungal → need 4x anti fungal dose - inhibits 17α hydroxylase → ↓ androgens then ↓ cortisol - -higher dose inhibit cholesterol → pregnenolone (all steroids) Women: -hirsutism, premenstrual syndrome, cystic acne Men - prostate tumors - SE of gynecomastia, ↓ libido, impotence - HIGH DOSES in Cushing's before surgery or radiation - -**most effective inhibitor of steroid synthesis in pts w/ Cushings DISEASE (problem at pituitary; ↑ ACTH)

Answer 5

Answer 6

Anti-androgen -↓ male accessory sex organ function Use: - prostate cancer w/ **Leuprolide (GnRH agonist) - topically → male pattern baldness, hirsutism Adverse: - mild hepatotoxic - Bicalutamide is less hepatotoxic - -1x day dosing - affects libido

Answer 7

5α-reductase inhibitors - ↓ DHT - ↑ testosterone - ↑ TSH - ↓ total serum PSA - supress male sex accessory organ (prostate) w/o affecting libido Use: - BPH - male pattern baldness Adverse: - impotence (ejaculation dysfunction too) - ↓ libido CI: - pregnancy → teratogenic to male fetus - may mask ↑ PSA due to prostate cancer

Answer 8

ACTH → ↑ glucocorticoids & androgens - used diagnostically to distinguish b/w 1º (adrenal malfunction) and 2º (pituitary malfunction) adrenocortical insufficiency - 1º = Addisons - if ↑ in cortisol → pituitary problem - no ↑ in cortisol → adrenal malfunction

Answer 9

Mineralcorticoid--zona glomerulosa (when and why) - has both mineralcorticoid & glucocorticoid activity - -high glucocorticoid - -much more significant mineralcorticoid properties - -(10 : 250) - effects similar to aldosterone - -↑ Na and H2O retention - -↑ K and H loss -use: salt-losing adrenogenital syndrome --given w/ cortisone for replacement therapy in --→ 1º adrenal insufficiency (problem w/ adrenal) 2º adrenal insufficiency → just cortisone

Answer 10

Mineralcorticoid synthesis inhibitor (tx cushing syndrome) - inhibits cholesterol → pregnenolone (opposite of ACTH) - -inhibits ALL steroid synthesis - -inhibits aromatase enzyme-- estrogen synthesis -Tx in Cushing SYNDROME (not at pituitary) --adrenal carcinoma or ectopic ACTH-tumor -Tx Metastatic Breast and Prostate cancer that has not responded to tamoxifen or anti-androgen - can cause adrenal insufficiency → give w/ corticosteroids - inhibits estrogen synthesis - less effect on testosterone

Answer 11

Adrenocorticolytic (tx cushing's DISEASE) - selective atrophy of Zona Fasciculata & Reticularis - -binds mitochondrial proteins → ↓ synthesis of corticosteroids - 1º adrenal carcinoma when surgery or rad not possible - can produce remission of Cushing's DISEASE (at pituitary) -severe GI distress

Answer 12

Glucocorticoid synthesis inhibitor - selective inhibitor of 11β-hydroxylase terminal enzyme in cortisol synthesis - -↓ cortisol levels - -↓ deoxycorticosterone → ↓ aldosterone - -↑ 11-deoxycortisol → sustains aldosterone function w/o much glucocorticoid effect - tests of adrenal function & short term management of Cushings - only drug in this class → pregnant women - hirsutism → androgen shunt
