Back 11

Pharmacologic Class: CCB (Brand?)

Hint 11

Calcium Channel Blocker. Any of a group of drugs that slow the influx of calcium ions into smooth muscle cells, resulting in decreased arterial resistance and oxygen demand. Because hypotension occurs as both an intended and,occasionally, an unwelcome effect, blood pressure must be monitored especially closely during the initial treatment period.

Brand: Tropol XL (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 12

Pharmacologic Class: Beta Blocker (Brand?)

Hint 12

_____, also known as ____–adrenergic _____ agents, are medications that reduce your blood pressure. ________ work by blocking the effects of the hormone epinephrine, also known as adrenaline. When you take ________, your heart beats more slowly and with less force, thereby reducing blood pressure.

Front 13

Brand: Zoloft (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 13

Pharmacologic Class: SSRI (Brand?) Generic with "S"

Hint 13

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Ease depression by increasing levels of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is one of the chemical messengers (neurotransmitters) that carry signals between brain cells. SSRIs block the reabsorption (reuptake) of serotonin in the brain, making more serotonin available.

Front 14

Brand: Zocor (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 14

Pharmacologic Class: HMG CoA Rls (Brand?)

Hint 14

HMG–CoA reductase inhibitors. HMG–CoA reductase is the rate controlling enzyme for cholesterol production.

Front 15

Brand: Zithromax (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 15

Pharmacologic Class: Macrolide (Brand?)

Hint 15

Some macrolides have antibiotic or antifungal activity and are used as pharmaceutical drugs.

Front 16

Brand: Ambien (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 16

Pharmacologic Class: Gaba-BZ Receptor (Brand?)

Hint 16

gamma aminobutyric acid / benzodiazepine

Front 17

Brand: Lexapro (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 17

Pharmacologic Class: SSRI (Brand?) Generic with "E"

Hint 17

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Ease depression by increasing levels of serotonin in the brain. Serotonin is one of the chemical messengers (neurotransmitters) that carry signals between brain cells. SSRIs block the reabsorption (reuptake) of serotonin in the brain, making more serotonin available.

Front 18

Brand: Nexium (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 18

Pharmacologic Class: PPI (Brand?)

Hint 18

Proton Pump Inhibitors. These drugs, which block an acid–producing enzyme in the lining of the stomach, take time to work sometimes 24 hours or more. Although they can have side effects like diarrhea or stomach pain, they can also heal the esophagus if it's been damaged by chronic exposure to stomach acid.

Front 19

Brand: Singulair (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 19

Pharmacologic Class: Leukotriene Receptor Antagonist (Brand?)

Hint 19

Drug which functions as a leukotriene–related enzyme inhibitor and consequently opposes the function of these inflammatory mediators; leukotrienes are produced by the immune system and serve to promote bronchoconstriction, inflammation, microvascular permeability, and mucus secretion in asthma and COPD.
They are less effective than corticosteroids for treating asthma, but more effective for treating certain mast cell disorders.

Front 20

Brand: Celebrex (Pharmacologic Class?)

Back 20

Pharmacologic Class: COX-2 Inhibitor (Brand?)

Hint 20

Type of non–steroidal anti–inflammatory drug (NSAID) that directly targets cyclooxygenase–2, an enzyme responsible for inflammation and pain. Targeting selectivity for COX–2 reduces the risk of peptic ulceration
