Cortisol
naturally occurring corticosteroid. Dec availability of neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophil and basophils by redistribution. Decrease macrophage release of TNFα, IL-1, metalloproteinase and plasminogen factor (pro-inflammatory cytokines). Decreases synthesis of prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxane and histamines from mast cells
Corticosteroid functions to
decrease inflammation by stopping arachondic acid metabolism by dec. phospholipase A2.
How synthetic differs from natural corticosteroids
Affinity for mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoid receptors
Anti Inflammatory Activity of 1
hydrocortisone: short acting
Anti Inflammatory Activity of .8
cortisone: short acting
Anti Inflammatory Activity of 4
Prednisone: short acting
Anti Inflammatory Activity of 5
prednisolone:short acting, methylprednisolone: short acting, triamicolone (intermediate)
Anti Inflammatory Activity of 25-40
betamethasone: long acting
Anti Inflammatory Activity of 30
dexamethasone: long acting
Anti Inflammatory Activity of 10
Fludrocortisone (salt retention of 250)
corticosteroids used for
arthritis, bursitis, tenosynovitis, asthma, dermatitis, temporal arteritis, Inflammatory bowel syndrome (Crohn's Disease, ulcerative colitis)
Corticosteroid adverse effects
Na+ retention and hypertension
Corticosteroid contraindications
Peptic ulcers, hypertension, osteoporosis and heart failure
NSAID acts as
anti inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic
NSAID mechanism
Inhibition of COX 1/2
prolonged use of NSAIDs causes
increased bleeding time, dyspepsia, subepithelial damage and hemorrhage, gasrtic muscosal erosion, frank ulceration and gastric necrosis
NSAID mech of analgesia
inhibition of prostaglandins PGE1 and PGF2-alpha
NSAID effect on vessels and GFR
decreases blood vessels' sensitivity to bradykinin and histamine, decreased GFR and may lead to kidney failure
classes of NSAIDs
Aspirin & Other Traditional NSAIDs
Aspirin Mechanism
Mech: irreversible inhibition of COX1 & COX2, →inhibit prostaglandins, thromboxanes and prostacyclins.
aspirin uses
decreases incidence of transient ischemic attacks, unstable angina and coronary artery thrombosis
Aspirin Adverse effects
airway hyperactivity in asthmatic patients. Susceptible patients may also be reactive to indomethacin, naproxen, ibuprofen, mefenamate and phenylbutazone
