-decreases testosterone binding to androgen receptor and hydroxlyation of estradiol causing galactorrhea in women and decreased sperm count, impotence and gynecomastia in men
-need a high dose (not seen w/OTC)
T/F - tolerance to H2 receptor antagonists develops quickly
-true - w/in 3 days
what problem is caused if you discontinue H2 receptor antagonists suddenly
-rebound (esophagitis)
What is sucralfate and how does it work
-octasulfate of sucrose with aluminum
-forms sticky polymer coating that coverd epithelium
-acid activated, avoid other GI drugs that lower acid
-prefers to bind to ulcers over normal tissue
Sucralfate most common side effect
-constipation
-will also block absorption of other drugs through the stomach
Antacids:
-MOA
-neutralize pH of gastric contents
Which is faster acting - Mg or Al
-Mg is faster, Al is slower
(30 sec vs. 5 min)
T/F - using Mg is combination with Al is better than each alone
true
-Mg stimulates emptying while Al delays emptying and slows motility
What is treatment of H. Pylori consist of
-acid neutralization, cytoprotection and antibacterial agents
(proton pump inhibitor, antibiotics, bismuth)
Stimulation of enterochromaffin cells releases what?
-serotonin
Serotonin causes what to be activated
-primary afferent neuron inside the gut
How does GI motility happen
local reflex pathways contract orally and relax anally
T/F - activating muscarinic receptors activates coordinated motility so this is an approach
-false - will not activate coordinated movement
What are cholingergic derivatives used for (bethanechol)?
-MOA
-side effects
-help in urination post-surgery
-selectively activate M2 and M3 receptors
-bradycardia, flushing, diarrhea, cramps, salivation, blurred vision
Neostigmine methylsulfate (acetylcholinesterase inhibitor) can be used to treat what GI ailment
-ileus (bowel obstruction)
Dopamine receptor antagonists:
-MOA
-dopamine antagonizes Ach release so receptor antagonists enhance the normal ACh response
metoclopramide -
-a dopamine receptor antagonist
-used for N&V, laxative
tegaserod
-MOA
-useage
-partial serotonin 5-HT4 agonist
-improves lower bowel motility, used for IBS
Cisapride
-MOA
-use
-5-HT4 receptor and adenylate cyclase stimulant
-used for GERD
mycin antibiotics are all what?
-MOA
-effect
-motilin agonists
-peptide hormone that increases motility (secreted by ECF cells)
-gastric dumping
Definition of consipation
-<3 stools/week
Osmotic laxatives:
