One treatment of GERD is to promote motility, what does this mean?
move contents faster through GI tract
What is the MOA of motility agents?
move contents faster through GI, and reduce gastric emptying time
What are drug of therapy for GERD was removed from the market?
cisapride
Why was cisapride (GERD treatment) removed from the market?
causes serious arrhythmia
What is the drug of therapy for GERD?
metaclopramide
What is the MOA of metaclopramide?
accelerates gastric emptying
what are adverse reactions to using motility agents?
Diarrhea --not enough time for large intestine to absorb H2O/electrolytes.

cisapride removed --arrythmias
What is the MOA for proton pump inhibitors (used to treat GERD & PUD)?
inhibits H+/K+ ATPase pump on parietal cells responsible for pumping HCL into stomach.

Causes potent reduction of secretion
What are the names of proton pump inhibitor drugs?
omeprazole (prototype drug)
esomeprazole
Lansoprazole
rabeprazole
pantoprazole (avail IV)
Describe the adverse effects of proton pump inhibitors
well-tolerated
What is the MOA for H2 receptor antagonist (treatment of GERD & PUD)?
binds to Histamine-2 receptors on parietal cells to reduce secretion
What are the names of drugs for H2 antagonists?
-cimetidine
-ranitidine
-nizatidine
-fomatodine
describe the adverse effects associated with H2 receptor antagonists.
generally well-tolerated

What are the antacid drugs used?
Too numerous to count (TNTC)

Malox/Mylanta
Because Peptic Ulcer Disease (PUD) is due to incr acidity in stomach or duodenum what classes of drugs can treat his problem?
Proton Pump Inhibitors
H2 Receptor Antagonists
Antacids
To eliminate H. Pylori in PUD disease what class of drugs should one use?
antibiotics
what is the drug of choice to treat peptic ulcers?
proton pump inhibitors
drug ending in "-prazole" is this type of drug
proton pump inhibitor
drugs ending in "-tidine" is this type of drug
H2 receptor antagonists
what are the adverse effects associated with antacids?
diarrhea or constipation (depending on agent)
what is the MOA of antibiotics?
erradicate microorganism
Name the antibiotics that are targeted to treat H. Pylori
metronidazole, clathromycin, amoxicillin, tetracyclin
common adverse effects associated with antibiotics (PUD treatment)
allergic, GI distress

Tetracycline -- stain teeth/bones
metronidazole- can cause disfulfiram-like rxn if ingested with alcohol

sulfasalzine
mesalamine
olsalazine
basalazide
adverse effects for 5-aminosalicyclic acid drugs are:
GI complaints
the MOA for 5-aminosalicyclic acid drugs (IBD):
local anti-inflammatory actions in intestinal tract
