1. methylcellulose
2. psyllium
3. Ca polycarbophil
4. lactulose
5. docusate sodium

1&2.moa****"Bulk laxatives"****~ Attract water to form a HYDROGEL w/ feces in the large bowel--hydration incr the bulk by 30x
~ Psyllium also binds to bile acids (more are excreted in feces…lowers Tc & LDL)???
4. lactulose moa-Bacteria in bowel degrade lactulose into lactic, acetic & organic acids which exert an osmotic effect drawing H2O
pharm-bowel distention
~ Acidification of the colonic contents also causes NH3 in blood to be trapped & excreted as NH4+
5. =soap;

Irritant action increases the accumulation of water & electrolytes in lumen of colon (ONLY)
~ Keeton: don’t use much!! "Bad"

2&3.~ Hypertonic solutions that create osmotic forces which draw water into large bowel

pharm~ Bowel distention activates stretch receptors, which increases peristalsis

s/e=* Laxative
dependence!!!
irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)
1. bulk laxatives:
methylcellulose
psyllium
Ca polycarbophil
lactulose
docusate sodium

Bulk laxatives MOA-Expands the large bowel via * & thus prevents the alternating segmental contractions of vsm--antegrade peristalsis is restored

*moa-corticosteroid, inhibits syn of PGs and LTs & locally alters immune fxn

2,3,4 are NSAIDS:

Keeton: "5-ASA (5-aminosalicylic acid) is used as po therapy to tx UC & CD (bc inhibits PGs & LTs (5-ASA inhibits COX 1,2 & lipooxygenase, which are precursors for PG and LT, respectively)) - I expect you to know that!"

2. sulfaSALazine=DOC, conjugate of SULFApyridine and 5-aminoSALIcylic acid (5-ASA)

3. meSALamine-capsule slowly releases 5-ASA as move thru bowel

4. oSALazine: two 5-ASA mcs joined by azo bond (conjugate) that is cleaved by bact enzymes in lg bowel
diarrhea (non-bacterial)
*loperamide (Imodium)=DOC
-diphenoxlate

moa-opiates!
-Slow colonic transit rate by direct/indirect inhibition of GI motility
bacterial diarrhea
1. kaopectate
moa**** Absorbent Powder ****
~ A hydrated aluminum silicate CLAY ("kao") + a complex carbohydrate PECTIN ("pectate")
~ Large SA of the clay (which has a negative charge) absorbs bacterial toxins & the pectin becomes hydrated to form a viscous colloid solution, which helps consolidate stool

2. Bismuth subsalicylate
(Pepto-Bismol)
moa-**** Coating Agent ****
~ Bismuth is not absorbed, but 90% of the salicylate is absorbed
Anti-bact: * Binds to -SH groups of microbial proteins to destroy their 3° structure

Anti-ulcer:
Incr PG synthesis & alkali secretion
* Anti-proteolytic action counteracts breakdown of mucus coat by pepsin & H.pylori protease (preserves mucus coat)

S/E: salicylate toxicity
kaopectate

PUD
Stress ulcers
Heartburn
GERD
Al hydroxide
S/E: constipation

-temporarily raises pH of gastric contents to 3-4
~ Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (drug tolerance & 25%-50% failure rate)
~ PUD
~ Stress ulcers
~ Heartburn
~ GERD
"Every girl wants TO DINE w.a guy who drives an H2!"

pharm-inc gastric pH to 4-5
-partially - abs of Vit B12
~ NSAID induced gastropathy
misoprostol
(stable analog of PGE1)
"Me so prostaglandin" (misoprostol, PG agonist)

*** NSAID induced gastrophay has Nothing to do w/ H. pylori--so DONT TX w/ antibiotics

moa-**** PGE1 Agonist ****
~ Stimulates PGE1 receptors on gastric parietal cells to inhibit acid secretion
~ PUD
~ Stress ulcers in ventilated pts (bc elevated gastric pH may incr risk of nosocomial pnia in ventilated pts since low pH has antibiotic action--sucralfate prevents ulcers w/o changing gastric pH)
~ NSAID induced gastropathy ~ GERD
SucrALfate (AL=AL OH; sucralfate=sucrose sulfate)
“S(tress) UCRAL (ulcers)”
moa-**** Coating Agent **** (protective barrier)
pharm-Water insoluble complex of AlOH & sucrose sulfate which polymerizes (when pH <4) to form sticky viscous gel which forms a protective layer on the ulcer (coats ulcer)
~ The gel binds tightly to ulcerated gastric mucosa, & gel refluxed into the lower
esophagus aids in the tx of GERD
~ Does NOT neutralize stomach acid or inhibit acid secretion
-dissolving gallstones (but you do need a functioning GB)
~ Primary biliary cirrhosis
Ursodiol
"Hey gallstones, ur so die!" (dead)--ursodiol
DOC for dissolving gallstone

~ Increases the ratio of (bile acids & phospholipids) : cholesterol by:
* Decreasing cholesterol synthesis (inhibits HMG CoA reductase)
* Decreasing the GI absorption of cholesterol
* Decreasing the biliary secretion of cholesterol
~ Hyperlipoproteinemia
Psyllium
hyperlipoproteinemia
Psyllium
(works same as resins did!!)
~ Psyllium binds bile acids-->Fecal excretion of bile acids
~ This loss of bile acids decreases the intrahepatic concentration of the "sterol" pool leading to upregulation of hepatic LDL receptors via the "sterolstat"
DOC for IBD (CD and UC)
DOC=sulfasalazine

*conjugate of SULFApyridine and 5-aminoSALIcylic acid (5-ASA)
