bismuth subcitrate
complex bismuth salt of citric acid - protective agent + antibiotic - mechanism: thought to work by forming a protective coating over GI mucosa
bismuth subsalycylate
pepto bismol - protective agent + antibiotic - mechanism: thought to work by forming a protective coating over GI mucosa
-sartan -- blocks binding of angiotensis 2 and decreases constriction to get relaxation and lower blood pressure
AT1 -- g protein coupled receptor (varies by cell type)
lower cholesterol in the blood and reduce its production in the liver by blocking HMG-CoA reductase enzyme that produces it at rate limiting step--helps prevent atherosclerosis -competitively inhibit HMG-CoA reductase
- deplete intracellular pools of sterols -increase transcription of LDL receptors (in liver) --> removal of LDL and LDL precursors from plasma
medication taken by mouth to decrease blood sugar levels in persons with type 2 diabetes; not used for persons with type 1 diabetes
glinides
increase insulin secretion by blocking potassium channel to depolarize cell to influx calcium and trigger insulin secretion
Anti-hyperthyroid drugs
inhibit —> I- uptake, organification, and coupling
Perchlorate (ClO4-)
An anti-hyperthyroid drug that inhibits iodide uptake by inhibiting Na/I transporter — single dose
Iodide (high doses)
anti-hyperthyroid that inhibits own transporter — mechanism not understood — 2 days
Propylthiouracil (PTU)
Anti-hyperthyroid — inhibits peroxidase enzyme that oxidizes I- —> inhibits coupling reaction —> inhibits peripheral deiodination
Radioactive iodine (131 I)
emits b radiation which causes follicular cell necrosis, colloid disappearance, could destroy thyroid gland
B1- adrenergic receptor antagonists (for hyperthyroid)
regulate hear rate and bp symptoms
glucocorticoids (for hyperthyroid)
inhibit deiodinase conversion of t4—>t3
antipyretic effects (reduce body temp)
levothyroxine
synthetic T4
for hypothyroidism
liothyronine
synthetic T3
for hypothyroidism
porcine desiccated thyroid
for hypothyroidism
thyroid gland material from pig is crushed and dried and taken as a supplement
