GIVES RISK OF THROMBOEMBOLISM |
|
High risk of thromboembolism
|
estrogen in post-menapausal women because it is dose dependent
|
|
half-life of estrogen
|
less than 30 minutes because of its rapid hepatic metabolism
|
|
adding an alkyl group to estrogen
|
makes ethinyl estradiol which has a much longert half life and resist hepatic first pass metabolism for use with once a day treatment
|
|
esterfiing the estrogen at the 17 position
|
estradiol cypionate and estradiol valerate
the molecule is now more hydrophobic. So you do not want to give it orally...so give it IM. This is good for long lasting estrogen to induce pubertal changes |
|
analogs of estrogen esterfied but for testosterone
|
testosterone enanthate and testosterona cypionate which last long
|
|
testosterone propionate
|
less dose required
|

have weak androgenic effects and anti-estrogenic effects |
|
19-notestosteron derivatives that have minimal androgenic or estrogenic effects
|
desogestrel and norgestimate
|
|
reason for combining estrogen and progestin for contraceptives
|
then u can use lower dose of estrogen and u get a predicatable onset of menses and the least chance of fertility impairment
|
|
have a lower dose of estrogen but they are not good for ladies who want kids in the future
|
mini-pills which are progestin alone
|
|
best contraeptives for those who want future kids
|
combination pills
|
|

|
Aromatase inhibitors - anastrazole
|
|
Main endogenous glucocorticoid in the body and its purpose
|
involved in regulation of internal metabolism
CORTISOL |
|
Main mineralcorticoid
|
Aldosteron involved in salt water homeostasis
|
|
where are steroids made?
|
adrenal cortex
|
|
made in zona glomerulosa
|
aldosterone
|
|
zona fasiculata
|
cortisol
|
|
zona reticularis
|
sex steroids
|
|
main sex steroid and the enzyme necessary for it
|
dihydroepiandrosterone P450
|
|
Apposite of transcortin
|
Albumin which has low affinity and high capacity binding. as oppossed to transcortin (corticosteroid-binding globulin) which has high affinity and low capacity binding
|
|
which is more widly distributed...Glucocorticoid receptors or mineral corticoid receptors?
|
glucocorticoid receptors
|
|
glucocorticoids can bind to which receptors
|
glucocorticoid receptors or mineralcorticoid receptors
|
|
Cortisol binds to which receptors? How do you change it?
|
because it is a glucocorticoid it binds to both glucocorticoid and mineralcorticoid receptors. However if you convert it to cortisone it only binds to glucocorticoid receptors
|
|
11B-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase
|
this converts cortisol to cortison so it can only bind to glucocorticoid receptors instead of both gluco and mineral
You get a mineralcorticoid excess when this enzyme is messed up as in a genetic insufficiency or eating black licorice |
|
glucocorticoids side effects
|
want to INCREASE levels of glucose so can cause diabetogonic effects
|
|
Aldosterone
|
mineralcorticoid that increase ENaC channels to increase sodium reabsorption
|
|
increase in sodium levels caused by aldosterone can lead to
|
atherosclerosis, stroke, hypertension
|
|
glucocorticoids do what to prostiglandins?
|
they decrease them thereby getting an ELEVATION OF BP
|
|
hydrocortisone can be taken?
|
orally or IV right into the joints
|
|
cortison negative feedback loop
|
effects the hypothalamus and pituitary in order to inhibit productions of cytokines like IL1/2/6 and TNF-a to stop an acute organ rejection
|
|
why would you give hydrocortison IV
|
because then the 11-b hydroxysteroid cnt convert it to cortisone and it can be used to activate mineralcorticoid receptors in the case that someone has hypotension - acute insufficiency of aldosterone
|
|
a type of chronic adrenal insufficiency
|
addisons disease
|
|
TX for addissons disease
|
it is a chronic adrenal insufficiency. You want to give somethign to increase the levels of mineralcorticoids instead of glucocorticoids so give FLUDROCORTISONE
|
|
congenital adrenal hyperplasia
|
can be when the 21beta-hydroxylase enzyme is missing so cortisol can not do negative feedback because it is not created and thus increased ACTH and increased sex hormones
|
|
Cushings syndrome
|
instance of producing more cortisol regardless of function. can be due to ACTH or anything
|
|
Cushings Disease
|
Tumor in the pituitary that causes an excess of ACTH which increases Cortisol levels
|
|
how to distinguish between cushings syndrome and disease
|
Dexamethasone suppression test - if the levels are supressed you have cushing DISEASE
|
|
excessive levels of cotrisol by drugs or by cushings can lead to:
|
osteroperosis and cataracts.
|
|
mitotane
|
- of adrenocortical steroids
ONLY DIRECT CYTOTOXIC EFFECT to kill cells int he adrenal cortex. |
|
aminoglutethimide
|
inhibitor of adrenocortical steroids
blocks the CYP450 or 11B-hydroxylase in order to inhibit levels of cortisol in cushings syndrome |
|
Ketoconazole
|
inhibitor of adrenocortical steroids
used as an antifungal but in high doses can block the 17hydroxylase enzyme which blocks pregnenolone to 17 hydroxypregnenelone which is used to make cortisol. This does NOT affect the aldosterone pathway so it is te BEST for Cushings DISEASE |
|
Trilostane
|
inhibitor of adrenocortical steroids
inhibits the 3B dehydrogenase to treat cushings syndrome |
|
metyrapone
|
inhibitor of adrenocortical steroids
inhibits 11B-hydroxylase but is not as good as the rest to stop production of aldosterone or cortisol |
|

These are used to help with asthma. they are good for rescue |
|
Albuterol
|

|
|
Long-acting beta-2 agonists (2)
|
come from epinephrine and isoproterenol. They are SALMETEROL AND FORMOTEROL
Used for asthma but are not as effective against the inflammation as the short acting. Plus these ones are more life threatening |
|
Beta Agonist side effects
|
cardiac problems, tremor, hypokalemia, and HYPOXEMIA - give oxygen to those patients
|
|
Levelbuterol
|
used for asthma and it is more specific because it has the R isomer instead of the S isomer which is less effective
|
|

|
|
both theophylline and beta agonists stimulate...
|
cAMP
|
|
Most effective in COPD
|
Ipratropium Bromide (Atrovan) which is an anti-cholinergic
|
|
Ipratropim Bromide, tiatropium
|
Atrovan. It is a non selective anti-cholinergic agentwith a slow duration fo action and used to reverse bronchoconstriction to help asthma and COPD
|
|
Atropine
|
An anticholinergic but is not used as much because it is a tertiary ammonum and rapidly absobered if used for asthma to cause tachycardia
|
|
why do you use ipratropium Bromide to help with asthma instead of Atropine if both are anti-cholinergics?
|
Ipratropium Bromide is a quarternary ammonia as oppossed to teh tertiary atropine so it is less absorbed and has less adverse effects
|
|
most potent anti-inflammatory agents
|
corticosteroids
|
|
if you are giving some1 with status asthmaticus beta agonists, what else should u give to make them more responsive?
|
glucocorticoids such as methyl-prednisolone

the thiourea deriviatives: propylthiouracil and methimazole.
they INHIBIT THYROID PEROXIDASE |
|
Which thiourea derivat do you give ina preagnant woman?
|
propylthiouracil because it doesnt cross the placenta as well as methimazole
|
|
this thiourea derivated also inhibits 5'-deiodinase as well as thyroid peroxidase
|
propylthiouracil. By inhibiting this enzyme it stops the conversion of T4 to T3
|
|
which thiourea is more potent?
|
methimazole is more potent than propylthiouracil
|
|
side effects of methimazole and propylthiouracil which are thiourea
|
agranulocytises
|
|
high-dose iodide
