Unfractionated Heparin
Indirect Thrombin Inhibitor
1:1 complex with thrombin:inactivates thrombin and factor X
enhances anithrombin 1000 Xs
Use to treat thrombosis
Can cause: bleeding, allergies, thrombocytopenia
Fractionated Heparin
Shorter than heparing
Indirect thrombin inhibitor
inactivates factor X but not thrombin
Can cause: bleeding, allergies, thrombocytopenia
Lepirudin(recombinant hirudin)
Bivalirudin(semisynthetic)
Direct thrombin inhibitor(bivalent)
binds substrate recognition site and catalytic site to inhibit coag
used to treat HIT
Adverse: bleeding, lepirudin contraindicated in renal comp
Argatroban
Direct thrombin inhibitor(monovalent)
binds catalytic site on thrombin
Used mainly for HIT
Adverse: bleeding, contraindicated in hepatic insufficiency
Warfarin(coumadin)
Vit K antagonist
Long term anticoagulant
contraindication: bleeding, pregnancy(crosses the placenta)
intake of Vit K can outcompete warfarin
Streptokinase
Fibrinolytic
protein from streptococci
converts plasminogen to plasmin
low specificity cleaves all fibrin
not enzymatic
do not use if patient is at risk for hemorrhage
Alteplase(tPA)
Tenetplase
Reteplase
recombinant fibrinolytic
enzymatically converts plasminogen to plasmin
more specific for fibrin bound plasminogen
do not use in patients at high risk of hemorrhage
Aspirin
anti-platelet med
Irreversibly binds to Cox1
prevents precursor to TxA2
inactivates platelets permanently
causes GI problems
Clopidogrel(plavix)
prasugrel(effient)
ticlopidine (ticlid)
ADP antagonists
irreversibly inhibit P2Y12 receptor
platelets cannot release ADP
prevents aggregation
prevent MI
Clopidogrel
reduces rate of stroke and MI in individuals with PAD
prasugrel
approved to reduce MI after angioplasty
Abciximab(reopro)
Eptifibadine(integrilin)
Tirofiban(aggrastat)
Glycoprotein IIA/IIIB antagonist
prevent interaction of GP IIb/IIIa
prevents platelet aggregation
used in acute coronary syndromes
risk of bleeding
Dipyridamole
phosphodiesterase, prevents the breakdown of cAMP decreasing the activation of platelet
used with warfarin to prevent embolism from prosthetic valve
Corticosteroids
anti inflammatory
inhibits cox2
treat gout, RA, asthma, eczema
NSAID
Inhibits COX and thus prostaglandins involved in fever and inflammation, also inhibits thromboxane preventing clotting
used for inflammatory conditions
Aspirin
Inhibits TxA2 formatin
irreversible
prevents clotting
used as prophylaxis in MI
Alprostadil
Prostaglandin analog
treatment of erectile disfunction
MIsoprostol
Prostaglandin analog
prevents peptic ulcer in pts on NSAIDs
Epoprostenol
prostaglandin analog
Treats severe pulm hypertension
Hydroxyzine (Vistaril)
First H1 antagonist
block H1, muscarinic and cholinergic receptors
used for skin allergies
Adverse: CNS interaction, nausea vomiting
Cyclizine(marezene)
Meclizine(antivert)
H1 antagonist First Gen
used for motion sickness

Adverse: CNS interaction, nausea vomiting
Azelastine(optiva)
H1 antagonist first gen
inhibits histamine release
used for nasal allergies
Adverse: CNS interaction, nausea vomiting
can be given as nasal sprau
metabolized to active metabolite desmethylazelastine
Promethazine(phenergen)
H1 antagonist first gen
used for allergic reactions, Post op pain (adjunct), and motion sickness
Diphenhydramine(benadryl)
Dimenhydrinate(dramamine)
Carbinoxamine(histex)
H1 antagonists
blocks H1 receptor
Interaction with cholinergic and adrenergic and muscarinic receptors
Contraindicated with MAOI
CNS depression
Fexofenadine(allegra)
Loratadine(claritin)
Cetrizine(zyrtec)
H1 antagonist 2nd gen
Specific to the H1 receptor
used for allergies
non sedating
contraindicated with MOAI
Cimetidine(tagamet)
Ranitodine(zantac)
famotidne(pepcid)
nizatidine(axid)
H2 antagonists
reduce release of stomach acid
treat GERD, reflux, zollinger ellison, ulcers
cimetidine inhibits CYP 450
