68 Cards in this Set

  • Front
  • Back
SE is that it crystallizes in the kidney. need to keep pt well hydrated
acyclovir
this enzyme is needed to convert the drug into be activated to get through the 3 steps to prevent further elongation
thymidine kinase
DOC for CNS, visceral, disseminated infection
acyclovir
this is for acyclovir resistant HSV, then you would use this drug instead.
foscarnet
this is metabolized to penciclovir in the body but has same moa of acyclovir
famcyclovir
this is the valine prodrug of acyclovir
valacyclovir
this is used as a step down from IV acyclovir which is used to treat encephalitis
PO valacyclovir
what is the major SE of valacyclovir?
thrombocytopenic purpura seen with high doses
3 mechanisms that viruses gain resistance to acyclovir
1. virus decreases TK
2. altered substrate specificty of TK, no longer recognizes acv
3. viruses with altered viral DNA pol enzymes
what is the treatment for keratoconjunctivitis?
trifluridine - irreversibly inhibits thymidylate syntehtase. incorporates thymidine into viral DNA
this is the DOC for CMV
gangcyclovir
T or F the MOA of gangcyclovir is the same as acyclovir
false
instead of TK doing the phosphorylation, we use UL97 to phosphorylate
because of the SE we can't use ganciclovir very much. what are the SE?
teratogenic
carcinogenic
mutagenic
contraindicated in pregnancy
myelosuppression/neutropenia
fever, rash, HA
liver, and kidney dysfxn
ganciclovir is given via IV and PO. what is the oral prodrug of gangciclovir that is only given PO?
valaganciclovir . converted in body to ganciclovir
the SE are the same except for adding on what 2 things for valganciclovir?
anemia
diarrhea
this is used only for resistant HSV, VZV and has poor bioavilability and GI intolerance
foscarnet
what is the MOA of foscarnet and how is it different than ganciclovir
MOA is pyrophosphate analog. does NOT need phosphorylation
inhibits DNA, RNA polymerase and does NOT require TK
this is DOC for prevention of CMV in transplant and immunosuppressed pts
foscarnet
what are some SE of foscarnet
nephrotoxicity
electrolyte disturbances
gi upset
bone marrow suppresion
anemia
this is a competitive inhibitor for CMV dna polymerase. it can treat resistant HSV because it uses pyrukate kinase/monophosphate kinase and NOT thymidine kinase to phosphorylate its products
cidovir
how is cidovir given and what is it used for?
IV only
compounded as topic cream for genital warts
how often is cidofovir given?
Q 2 weeks

t 1/2 is 2.5 hrs BUT it lasts intracellularly for 60 hours
what 2 drugs do you ALWAYS give with cidofovir
NS and probenecid
this binds mrna and is given intravitreally Q 2-4 weeks
formvirsen DOC for CMV retinitis
this neuraminase inhibitor presents with hallucination, delirium, abnormal behavior, nausea and vomiting. it is also given PO within 36 hrs
oseltamir
this is inhaled within 48 hrs of sx and is a neuraminase inhibitor
zanamivir
who is NOT ALLOWED to use zanamivir?
asthmatics because it can cause bronchospasm
what is the MOA of m2 inhibitors?
blocks m2 which impairs viral uncoating and therefore no viral RNA transcription
what are the SE of m2 inhibitors
anorexia
nausea
nervousness
anxiety
confusion
difficulty concentrating
hepatitis drugs are given which way?
SC and IM
peginterferon alfa 2a and 2b are used for what
chronic hepatitis c
if you're using IFN to treat HCV, what drug do you always give in conjunction?
ribaviran
what has flu like sx that occurs 3-4 hrs after injections and also has myalgias.
IFN
DOC for HPV
imiquimod (cream)
what is the monoclonal ab you give for RSV
palivizumab (not a vaccine) given to high risk infants
this is going to bind to gp41 and block conformational change, therefore not allowing the fusion of virus and host cell membrane. what drug am i?
enfurvirtide (fusion inhibitor)
what has its MOA as encoding for dummy building blocks and getting incorporated into viral DNA and therefore viral RNA can't produce functional DNA?
NRTI

emtricitabine, tenofir
what is used first line and probably not toxic to mitochondria or causative of lipoatrophy but increases MI risk,

SE: rash, fever, fatigue, resp sx, GI sx
abacavir
what 2 NRTI increases MI risk
abacavir and didanosine
this is the only one where you have to take into account if you're going to eat or not
didanosine

30 min before, 2 hrs afterwards
what has mitochondrial toxicity
lactic acidosis
hepatic steatosis
peripheral neuropathy
pancreatitis
lamivudine
lipoatrophy
NRTI
what 2 drugs are never to be given together dt it causing lactic acidosis
stauvudine and didanosine
what especially causes mitochondrial toxicity
stauvudine, didanosine, zalcitabine, zidovudine
what will bind near the active site and doesn't compete with viral nucleosides but instead alters the active site and inactivates the enzyme and shuts it down
efavirenz
these have more drug interactions and cross resistance in class is common and usually used second line with NRTI
NNRTIs
ex) efavirenz
what are some SE of efavirenz
CNS effects: dizziness, HA, insomnia, vivid dreams, nightmares, hallucinations
what are some SE of nevirapine
severe hepatotoxicity
this works AFTER viral replication has occurred (further down the line) they inhibit enzymes so that proteins can't be cleaved into functional proteins
protease inhibitors

works further down the line
this has the most drug interactions of HIV meds
protease inhibitors
all PIs are substrates for what?
CYP 3A4
which one of the protease inhibitors lacks effects on cholesterol
atazanavir
which protease inhibitor do you NEVER give to a pregnant lady?
efavirenz
a single dose of this drug is used to prevent perinatal transmission
nevirapine
what is the best way to prevent perinatal transmittion?
zidovudine + NRTI and PI or nevirapine
what are some SE of protease inhibitors
increased serum glucose/cholesterol/triglycerides/CAD risk/ fat deposition in back, abdomen,

hepatotoxicity
what is the only CCR5 antagonist
maraviroc
reserved for resistant HIV infection

SE: LFT elevation, cardiac events, cough, fever, dizziness, HA

1-2 days
what are the SE of neuraminidase inhibitors?
hallucination, delirium, abnormal behavior, nausea/ vomiting,


bronchospasm with zanamivir
what is the MOA of neuraminidase inhibitors?
prevents the normal breaking bond that holds the virus to the outside of the infected cell therefore can't release new virus and prevents escape and is non infectious


**note that virion has already infected the host cell, but just can't escape
which IFN is used for hepatitis, which is used for MS
IFN alpha = hepatitis
IFN B = MS
what lab tests do you have to get if taking IFN?
