Gastro Flashcards
H2RA
Ranitidine
Famotidine
T or F: PPIs need the acidity of the stomach for their activation
T
PPI bind _____ to_____
Irreversible
H+K+ATPase @Parietal Cells
Which step is inhibited with PPIs
Last step
Most effective tx for Peptic Ulcer Disease
PPIs
Tx for Errosive Esophagitis unresponsive to H2RA
PPIs
First line of tx for Zollinger-Ellison Synd.
PPIs
Tx for Gastropathy caused by NSAIDs
PPIs
Clopidogrel + PPIs
↓ activation of PPIs
Warfarin + PPIs
↓ Warfarin clearance
Chronic use of PPIs
↑ Risk of Pneumonia
MOA of H2RA
Reversibly competing with histamine for binding to H2 receptors @basolateral memb of parietals cells
↓adenyl cyclase activity → ↓cAMP levels → ↓protein kinase A activity →↓ phosphorylation and activation of H+K+ATPase
Second line tx for inhibition of gastric acid
H2RA
Contraindication of Omeprazole
Sevre Hepatic disease
T or F: H2RA cross the Placenta
T
Cytoprotective Agents
Misoprostol
Sucralfate
Famotidine
Gastric Acid Secretion Inhibitor
Ranatadine
Gastric Acid Secretion Inhibitor
Cytoprotective agent: synthetic analogue of PGE1
Misoprostol
MOA of Misoprostol
Inhibition of gastric acid (binds and activates the EP3 receptor @Parietal cells)
Stimulation of Mucus and Bicarbonate secretion
Enchancement of mucosal blood flow
Misoprostol binds to which receptors
EP3 @Parietal Cells
GI drug used for Medical Abortion
Misoprostol
GERD @Pregnancy
Sucralfate
Prophylaxis of Stress Ulcers
Sucralfate
(also… PPIs)
