G+ and certain anaerobics (bacteroides fragilis)
associated with superinfection => severe colitis: diarrhea, abdominal pain and fever -> possibly lethal
clonidine
adrenergic drug
a agonist, more a2 than a1
decrease bp via CNS; treat alcohol, opiate, and nictotine w/d
cocaine
adrenergic terminal blocker
blocks re-uptake of NE into nerve terminal

usually added to statin tehrapy
side effects: bloating, constipation, mix with H20

asthma drug
inhibits histamine release
effective in some patients only
inhaled
some local irritation, cough, rhinitis, sneezing, throat irritation
cyclophosphamide
cancer chemotherapy
nitrogen mustard alkylating agent
alkylation and cross-linking of DNA
requires activation via P450 in the liver
tox: bone marrow depression
Other side effects: nausea, vomiting, male sterility, amenorrhea, cystitis, alopecia, hemorrhagic cystitis: due to acrolein metabolite which is nephro and urotoxic (2-mercaptoethanesulfonate prevents this)
cycloserine
antimicrobial
cell wall synthesis inhibitor
"interior"
inhibits precursor formation

blocks calcium release from sarcoplasmic reticulum
treat malignant hyperthermia
Daptomycin
antimicrobial
disrupt membrane permeability -> depolarization, ion leakage
resistance through thickening cell wall
not active in lungs
decamethonium
NMJ
partial nAchR agonist
1st - depolarize, 2nd - desensitization to further agonists, inhibiting NMJ transmission
rapid effect, rapidly hydrolyzed by plasma pseudocholinesterase
diazoxide*
potassium channel activator, which causes local relaxation in smooth muscle by increasing membrane permeability to potassium ions. This switches off voltage-gated calcium ion channels which inhibits the generation of an action potential.
dicloxacillin
antimicrobial
penicillin: cell wall synthesis inhibitor, prevents x-linking of peptidoglycan strands
beta-lactamase immune
staph aureus
digitoxin/digoxin
chemical/drug
+ inotropic: increase contraction
- chronotropic: high vagal tone
- dromotropic: slowed conduction
Tx heart failure
digoxin immune Fab
Tx digitalis overdose
Diltiazem
Calcium Channel Blocker
predominately acts on cardiac and smooth muscle
bind and blocks activated channels
(binding increases with frequency)
Tx hypertension, angina, arrhythmias
decrease SA and AV node
increase diameter of vessels
decrease resistance
dimethylphenl piperazinium (DMPP)
parasympathetic and sympathetic agonist
(nicotine's cousin)
activation followed by desensitiization
low dose: sympathomemetic: CV effects
high dose: parasympathetic: GI effects
lipid soluble: tremors, stim respiration
high dose tox: convlusions
headaches, tremors, visual distortions, irritability
do not use if nursing or heart problems
diphenhydramine
antihistamine
H1 antagonist
sleepiness
dobutamine
adrenregic drug
B2 agonist
also has other actions at B1 (agonist/antagonist of A1 receptors)
increase inotropic activity of heart with little chornotropic
no change in vascular resistance
donepezil
NMJ: non competitive
AchE inhibitor
used in Alzheimer's disease: improves cognition and delays progression for > 1 yr
