cimetidine

ranitidine (famotidine, nizatidine)
clas: histamine H2 antagonist
treats: ulcer, hyper HCL secretion, GERD
mechanism: H2 antagonist at parietal cell
sx: diarrhea, dizzy, rash, headache

cimetidine - may inhibit CYP450 enzymes
ranitidine - stronger than cimetidine
omeprazole
(lansoprazole, esomeprazole, pantoprazole, rabeprazole)
class: PPI (proton pump inhibitor)
treat: GERD, ulcer, hyper HCL secretion
mechanism: block parietal cell HKATPase
sx: constipation, may inhibit CYP450
metaclopramide
type: prokinetic, 5HT3 antagonist, 5HT4 agonist
treat: GERD, nausea
mechanism: 5HT3 antagonist (sensory), 5HT4 agonist (motor)
sx: diarrhea, drowsy
erythromycin
class: motilin agonist
mechanism: inhibit bacteria protein synthesis; stimulates GI motility
ondansetron
granisetron
class: 5HT3 antagonist (sensory)
treat: nausea/vomiting from chemo
mechanism: 5HT3 antagonist (sensory)
sx: headache, constipation
atropine
class: muscarinic antagonist
mechanism: decreased motility, tachycardia, bronchodilation
sx: dry mouth, urine retention
buspirone
class: 5HT1A agonist
mechanism: relaxes stomach > can accomodate more food
fluoxetine
class: SSRI antidepressant
treat: depression
mechanism: serotonin reuptake inhibitor
sx: GI discomfort
neostigmine
class: cholinesterase inhibitor
sx: bowel cramps, diarrhea
octreotide
class: somatostatin analogue
mechanism: anti-diarrhea, inhibit HCL/pepsin secretion; reduce GI motility
sumatriptan
class: 5HT1 agonist
mechanism: fundus relaxation, reduce antral motility
sucralfate
complex with proteins > buffers acid and protects ulcers
misoprostal
PGE1 analogue
prevents ulcers
oxybutynin
tolterodine
darifenacin
fesoterodine
anticholinergic, antimuscarinic
relax bladder muscle
treat: urge to void, hyper detrusor
sx: anticholinergic (headache, sleepy, constipation)
tamulosin
terazosin
doxazosin
prazosin
alpha1 antagonist
relax internal sphincter > improve urine flow
treat: BPH obstruction, urgency
sx: orthostatic hypotension
finasteride
dutasteride
5-alpha reductase inhibitor
competitive inhibitor; finasteride (type II), dutasteride (type I and II)
reduce prostate growth in BPH
sildenafil
vardenafil
tadalafil
vasodilators to treat erectile dysfunction
inhibits PDE5 > less cGMP degradation> cGMP maintains SMC relaxation (erection)
sx: headache, flushing
probenecide
sulfinpyrazone
weak acids, competitively inhibit reabsorption of uric acid in the kidney
metformin
inhibits hepatic gluconeogenesis by activating insulin-activated enzymes
glitazone
decreases insulin resistance, acts at the muscle
allopurinol
inhibits purine degradation (xanthine oxidase) through competitive inhibition
colchicine
inhibits microtubule functions, so cells (eg inflammatory) cannot migrate and cause arthritissx: GI toxicity
ezetimibe
lowers cholesterol by blocking reabsorption at enterocyte level
niacin
increases HDL, decreases fatty acid by blocking breakdown to fats/VLDL
aminopterin
competitive inhibiter of DHF reductase; anti-cancer
methotrexade
competitive inhibitor of DHF reductase; anti-cancer
trimethoprim
inhibitor of bacterial DHF reductase
sulfonamide
mimics PABA (bacterial precursor for synthesizing folic acid), so will inhibit folic acid synthesis
cobalamin
vitamin B12
acyclovir
purine analogue, only activated in cells with HSV; inhibits DNA polymerase
AZT
pyrimidine analogue, inhibits viral DNA polymerase
cytosine arabinose
cytosine analogue, inhibits DNA polymerase
6-mercaptopurine
converted to nucleotide form, but this form inhibits DNA synthesis
levothyroxine
T4, thyroxine
SERM
selective estrogen receptor modulator, agonist/antagonist function depends on type of tissue; commonly used to treat breast cancer by blocking estrogen receptor
tamoxifin
SERM-class drug, block estrogen receptor
raloxifene
SERM-class drug, block estrogen receptor
aromatase inhibitor
block conversion of weak estrogen to estradiol; role against breast cancer; only effective in post-menopause females because will cause ovulation; only functions at peripheral tissues
preven
high E2/PRG, 2x dose
plan b
high PRG, 2x dose
ru-486
progesterone antagonist > binds to prg receptors > causes abortion
depoprovera
progesterone injection; 3mo
implanon
progesterone implantation; 3yr
