MOA:
uses:
toxicity:
CI:
MOA:
1) inh organification and coupling of thyroid hormone synthesis.

ADH/ DDAVP/ desmopressin can be used to treat...
central DI, vWdz, urinary incontinence
How do we treat nephrogenic DI?
1st line: HCTZ, Amiloride (might be better bc its K-sparing, pt wont get low K)
2nd line: Indomethecin, NSAIDS

S/E: Nephrogenic DI, photosensitivity, abnormalities of bone and teeth
Treatment for Conns syndrome
spirinolactone, adrenalectomy
Treatment for Addisson's dz
Hydrocortisone
Finasteride
MOA:
uses:
MOA: 5 alpha reductase inh

uses: BPH, male pattern baldness
Treatment for prostate cancer...
DOC: leuprilide (GnRH analogue the eventually desensitizes the receptor for GnRH on LH/FSH)
#2: flutamide (blocks DHT receptor)

***often used conjunctively, briefly... then flutamide is d/c'd
so both raloxifene and tamoxifene are agonist at bone and antagonists at breast. so whats the difference bw these 2?
tamoxifene is agonist at uterus. (inc risk for uterine cancer)

raloxifene is antagonist at uterus (dec risk for uterine cancer)
Treatment of SIADH
1) fluid restrict
2) Democycline or Li

*** if Na < 120, give 3% NS
Treatment of Conn's syndrome
1) ACE- I to raise K
(ACE-I blocks formation of aldosterone, which decreases K wasting)

2) Spirinolactone (blocks aldosterone rec)

3) Adrenalectomy
Addisson's
1) test
2) treatment
1) Corsyntropin (inject cortisol)
2) Hydrocortisone
Adissonian crisis treatment
Hydrocortisone
Pheo
1) test
2) treatment
3) Pre-op
4) Operative
5) CI
1) Phentolamine (short acting alpha nonspecific blocker)
2) Phenoxybenzamine (irriversible alpha nonspecific blocker)
3) pre-op: 14 days of Phenoxy, fluid load, high Na diet
4) Operative: Phentolamine--> Adrenalectomy
5) CI: Beta-blockers

***if there are complications in surgery, and NE/Epi spills, patient will go into hypertensive crisis.... Now you can give Beta-1 blockers
(leave Beta-2 receptors unblocked, so pt can maintain vasodilation)
you are now depending of IV fluids to maintain BP
Treatment for insulinoma
remove
Treatment for nessidioblastosis
nessidioblastosis= insulinoma in infant

Rx: subtotal pancreatectomy
HONK
1) serum Osm
2) treatment
1) serum Osm > 320
2) Rx: 10L NS, insulin drip, replace electrolytes and bicarb

***in this order
DKA treatment
1) Insulin drip (until ketones disappear, and to help put K in cell)
2) NS to dilute K (additive effort with #1)
3) KCl to maintain K levels when K falls to 4.5
4) D5 1/2 NS when glucose= 250 and ketones=0
Dawn phenomenon Rx
increase PM's NPH insulin or
move PM insulin closer to bedtime or
inc AM's regular insulin
