|
1. Inhibit NE release
2. Beta blocker |
|
For Anxiety, what are the 3 drug mechanisms used
|
1. GABA release, hyperpolarization
2. SSRIs 3. Serotonin agonist |
|
For anti-depressants, what are 5 drug mechanisms used
|
1. TCA
2. SSNRIs 3. SSRIs 4. Selective SSRI's (5-HT1a receptor agonist) 5. MAOIs |
|
For bipolar disorder, what are the 2 drug mechanisms
|
1. Mood stabilizer - PI inhibitor
2. Anticonvulsants |
|
Clonidine
|
PTSD
inhibits release of NE -acts at autoreceptors (alpha2 - GPCRs) on presynaptic cell to stop release of NE |
|
Propanolol
|
PTSD
beta blocker -inhibits NE from interacting with beta-adrenergic receptor on posy-synaptic cell |
|
Benzodiazapines
|
Anxiolytic
diazapam, alprazolam, midazolam -increase frequency of GABA Cl- channel opening |
|
Barbituates
|
Anxiolytic
pentobarbital -increase duration of GABA Cl- channel opening -lethal when taken with alcohol (CNS depression) |
|
Buspirone
|
Anxiolytic
5-HT1a partial agonist |
|
Imipramine
|
Anti-depressant
TCA - first generation -blocks reuptake of NE and serotonin |
|
Nortriptyline
|
Anti-depressant
TCA - second generation -blocks reuptake of NE and serotonin |
|
Trazodone
|
Anti-depressant
TCA - second generation -blocks reuptake of NE and serotonin, mainly at 5-HT2 receptors |
|
Bupropion
|
Anti-depressant
TCA - 2nd generation -blocks reuptake of NE, serotonin, as well as DOPAMINE |
|
Nefazodone
|
Anti-depressant
TCA - newer generation -blocks reuptake of NE, serotonin (mainly 5-HT2), and dopamine |
|
Duloxetine
|
Anti-depressant
SSNRI -blocks reuptake of NE and serotonin |
|
Fluoxetine, setraline
|
Anti-depressant
SSRI -blocks reuptake of serotonin |
|
Phenelzine
|
Anti-depressant
MAOI -blocks degradation of NE, serotonin, dopamine |
|
Lithium
|
Bipolar disease
Mood stabilizer -inhibits PI pathway by decreasing Gq |
|
Carbamezapine, valproic acid, lamotrigine
|
Bipolar disease
Anti-convulsant -prolong inactivation of Na+ channels -valproic acid and lamotrigine have added benefit of increasing GABA levels to cause hyperpolarization |
