anticholinergic, absorbent, opium, antibiotic, anti-infective
Anticholinergic drug effects
slows perristallasis in intestines
Absorbent drug effects
absorb excess water from stool to solidify it
Laxative drugs
Osmotic, bulk producing laxatives, stool softeners, Chloride channel laxative drugs, irritant/stimlant,
Osmotic drug effects
attract water from blood into intestines to soften stool
bulk producing laxative drug effects
indigestible substances to absorb and hold water in intestines to soften stool saftest/most natural treatment
stool softener drug effects
emulsifier that allows fat in stool to mix with water and soften stool.
Chloride channel laxative drug effects
Stimulate chloride channels in mucosa of intestineal wall causing fluid to flow into intestines
Irritant/stimulant laxative drug effects
stimulate intestinal mucosa to stimulate peristalsis
Ulcerative Colitis drugs
5-aminosalicylic acid drugs or 5-ASA, corticosteroids,
Chrons drugs
Monoclonal antibody, antibiotic/antiprotozoal,
IBS drugs
Serotonin receptor blockers, Chloride channel activators, Antispasmodic, Guanylate cyclase-C agonist, Antibiotic
Osteoarthritis drugs
Analgesic, Salicylates, NSAIDs, COX-2 inhibitor, corticosteroids, Hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, zinc, capsaicin,
Salicylate drug effects
Analgesic/anti inflammatory effects, long term they are irritating to stomach and cause gastric ulcers
NSAID drug effects
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, inhibit prostaglandin production,
COX-2 inhibitor drug effects
larger catagory of NSAIDs, inhibit cyclooxygenase-2. Enzyme that decreases production of prostaglandins that cause pain and inflammation.
Hyaluronic acid osteoarthritis drug effect
secreted by synovial membrane of joint to help maintain lubricating quality of fluid.
Prostiglandin chemical effect
Play role in causing pain/inflammation in osteoarth, rheum arth. When material of join breakdown they are coverted by COX enzymes to prostaglandins, which then stim pain receptors in the area.
Rheumatoid arthritis drugs
Gold compounds, Salicylates, NSAIDs, COX-2 inhibitors, monoclonal antibodies, Janus Kinase inhibitor drugs,
Gold effect on rheumatoid arthritis
inhibit macrophages from immune system that attack joints
Monoclonal antibodies (RA) effects
Bind with necrosis factor to prevent inflammation.
Osteoporosis treatments/drugs
supplements: D, estradiol, progesterone, calcium, excercise. Bone resorbtion inhibitor drugs, SERM Selective estrogen receptor modulator, Calcitonin-salmon, monoclonal antibody,
Estradiol drug effects
Inhibits the action of osteoclasts
Bronchiodilator drugs
Beta Agonist, Xanthine
Beta-agonist drug effects
Stimulate Beta2 receptors, Relax smooth muscle surrounding the bronchioles, allowing them to dilate, increase air flow.
Xanthine drug effects
Directly relax smooth muscle around bronchioles, stim the respiratory centers of brain
Anticholinergic drug effects
Block acetylcholine action on muscarinic receptors in smooth muscles around bronchioles
Corticosteroid effect on lungs
Supress inflammatory response and edema, CANNOT treat acute attacks.
Leukotriene formation inhibitor drug effects
Blocks action of leukotriene at the receptor. Leukotriene causes airway edems, bronchospasms, inflammation.
