A

GI upset,

lactic acidosis

467
Q

metformin contraindication

A

renal patients (this is how it is excreted)

468
Q

metformin MOA

A

inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis and helps make beta cells work better

(improves insulin sensitivity)

469
Q

meglitinides (-glinide) - ex. repaglinide MOA

A

bind K channel (different channel from sulfonylureas but same effect essentially)

470
Q

meglitinides side effects

A

weight gain,

hypoglycemia

471
Q

DPP-4 inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin) MOA

inhibition of DPP-4 allows for more GLP-1 action

472
Q

DPP-4 inhibitors side effect

A

nausea/vomiting

473
Q

GLP-1 analogs (exenatide, liraglutide) MOA

A

mimic GLP-1 –> increase insulin and decrease glucagon secretion

474
Q

GLP-1 analog side effects

A

pancreatitis,
hypoglycemia,
weight loss

475
Q

bile acid resins

A

cholestyramine,
colestipol,
colesevelam

476
Q

bile acid resins MOA

A

inhibit reabsorption of bile acids in jejunum and ileum,

decreases LDL levels

477
Q

bile acid resins side effects

A

GI upset,

decreased fat soluble vitamin absorption (ADEK) and folic acid

478
Q

statins MOA

A

HMG-coA reductase inhibitors,

decrease total cholesterol and LDL levels

479
Q

statins side effects

A

myopathy,

abnormal LFTs

480
Q

niacin MOA

A

increases HDL levels

481
Q

niacin side effects

A

flushing (give aspirin to decrease),

hyperuricemia

482
Q

fibrates (gemfibrozil, -fibrates) MOA

A

stimulates lipoprotein lipase (breaks down TG into VLDL and chylomicrons which are then removed from circulation),
decreases TG levels

483
Q

fibrates side effect

A

gallstone formation

484
Q

ezetimibe MOA

A

decreases absorption of cholesterol in small intestine,

decreases serum LDL

485
Q

ezetimibe use

A

adjunct for hypercholesterolemia

486
Q

ezetimibe side effects

A

steatorrhea (diarrhea),
myalgia,
elevated LFT

487
Q

levothyroxine MOA

A

synthetic T4

think: “LeFOURthyroxine”

488
Q

levothyroxine uses

A

hypothyroidism,

goiters (thyroid cancer) by suppressing TSH secretion

489
Q

PTU and methamizole MOA

A

inhibit thyroid peroxidase,

inhibition of thyroid hormone synthesis and peripheral conversion of T4 to T3

490
Q

PTU and methamizole use

A

hyperthyroidism

491
Q

PTU and methamizole side effects

A

hepatotoxicity,
rash,
methamizole also is teratogen

492
Q

symptoms of hyperthyroidism

A

tachycardia,
weight loss,
diarrhea

493
Q

symptoms of hypothyroidism

A

bradycardia,
weight gain,
constipation

494
Q

where is T4 secreted from?

A

follicular cells of the thyroid gland

495
Q

prednisone (synthetic corticosteroid) MOA

A

synthetic glucocorticoids that mimic the action of endogenous glucocorticoids

496
Q

prednisone uses

A 
adrenocortical insufficiency,
IBD,
allergic reactions,
SLE, RA,
diagnosis of cushing's syndrome,
immunosuppression in organ transplants
497
Q

prednisone side effects

A

symptoms of cushing syndrome (osteoporosis, hyperglycemia, fat redistribution - buffalo hump and moon facies),
impaired wound healing

498
Q

how do we diagnose cushing’s syndrome?

A

dexamethasone suppression test

499
Q

beclomethasone use

A

inhaled corticosteroid used to treat chronic asthma

think: “B for Bronchial asthma and Beclomethasone”

500
Q

bisphosphonates (-onate) - ex. alendronate MOA
