51-100 Spring 08

Includes brand name, generic name/therapeutic class, and mechanism of action

Brand NameGeneric NameMechanism of Action
Keflex cephalexin/ antibiotic cephalosporin: inhibits cell wall synthesis
Paxil paroxetine/ anti-depressant SSRI
Reglan metoclopramide/ anti-emetic anti-emetic: inhibits DA receptors, which increases vomiting threshold GI motility stimulant: cholinergic activity becomes greater than that of dopamine, which increases smooth muscle response to ACh(Acetylcholine) and causes GI motility
Cardizem diltiazem/ calcium channel blocker Non-DHP calcium channel blocker
Ambien zolpidem/ hyonotic agonist of benzodiazepine gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA-A) subunit
Celexa citalopram/ antidepressant SSRI
Advair fluticasone & salmeterol/ antiasthmatic fluticasone: inhibits phospholipase, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes salmeterol: beta-2 receptor agonist
Zestoretic, Prinzide lisinopril & hydrochlorothiazide/ antihypertensive lisinopril: ACE-I HCTZ: loop diuretic
Vytorin simvastatin & ezetimibe/ antihyperlipidemic simvastatin: HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor ezetimibe: cholesterol absorption inhibitor
Zyrtec cetirizine/ antihistamine H-1 receptor antagonist
Fioricet APAP, butalbital & caffeine/ analgesic butalbital: causes sensory depression by inhibiting conduction in areas of the brain caffeine: stimulates CNS by increasing levels of cAMP
Diflucan fluconazole/ antifungal inhibits fungal steroid production
Ortho-Tricyclen norgestimate & ethinyl estradiol/ oral contraceptive norgestimate: progesterone receptor agonist EE: estrogen receptor agonist
Depakote divalproex/ antiepileptic & antipsychotic MOA unknown (may increase brain GABA levels)
Adderall amphetamine & dextroamphetamine/ CNS stimulant sympathetic amine with effects similar to epinephrine
Celebrex celecoxib/ NSAID Cyclo-oxygenase 2 inhibitor
Diovan valsartan/ AT2 antagonist angiotension-2 receptor blocker
Lotrel amlodipine & benazepril/ antihypertensive amlodipine: DHP calcium channel blocker benazepril: ACE-I
Allegra fexofenadine/ antihistamine H-1 receptor antagonist and inhibits histamine release
Klonopin clonazepam/ antiepileptic benzodiazepine: believed to enhance GABA activity
Augmentin amoxicillin & clavulanate/ antibiotic clavulanate(clavulanic acid): beta-lactamase inhibitor, which increases the antibacterial activity of beta-lactam antibiotics
Cymbalta duloxetine/ antidepressant SSNRI: selective seratonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor
Risperdal risperidone/ antipsychotic MOA unknown (affects serotonin and DA receptors
Levaquin levofloxacin/ antibiotic Quinolone antibiotic: inhibits bacterial DNA synthesis
Aldactone spironolactone/ diuretic aldosterone antagonist at the distal convoluted renal tubule
Lyrica pregabalin/ anticonvulsant MOA unknown (may bind to alpha-2 delta receptors in the CNS
Zyloprim allopurinol/ agent for gout xanthine oxidase inhibitor, which decreases uric acid production
Protonix pantoprazole/ antisecretory PPI
Actos pioglitazone/ antidiabetic peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) gamma agonist
Dilantin Kapseals extended phenytoin/ antiepileptic enhances neuronal sodium efflux
Kenalog triamcinolone acetonide topical/ corticosteroid inhibits phospholipase, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes
Motrin ibuprofen/ NSAID inhibits prostaglandin synthesis
Altace ramipril/ ACE-I ACE-I
Coreg carvedilol/ beta blocker non-selective beta blocker (blocks B-1, B-2, and alpha-1 receptors)
Verelan verapamil/ calcium channel blocker non-DHP calcium channel blocker
Estrace estradiol/ estrogen estrogen receptor agonist
Catapres clonidine/ antihypertensive alpha-2 receptor agonist
Soma carisoprodol/ muscle relaxant MOA unknown (works centrally to produce muscle relaxation)
Zetia ezetimibe/ antihyperlipidemic cholesterol absorption inhibitor
Amaryl glimepiride/ antidiabetic sulfonylurea: increases pancreatic insulin release
Flomax tamsulosin/ treats BPH alpha-1 receptor antagonist
Diovan-HCT valsartan & hydrocholorothiazide/ AT2 antagonist valsartan: angiotensin receptor-2 blocker HCTZ: diuretic
Humalog insulin lispro/ antidiabetic binds to insulin receptor (ultra short-acting insulin)
Flonase fluticasone/ nasal decongestant inhibits phospholipase, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes
Tylenol w/ Codeine APAP & codeine phosphate/ analgesic same as hydocodone
Aricept donepezil/ antipsychotic acetylcholinesterase inhibitor (Ach-I)
Mevacor lovastatin/ antihyperlipidemic HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor
Accupril quinapril/ ACE-I ACE-I
Miralax polyethylene glycol (PEG) 3350/ laxative osmotic agent (causes water to be retained in the stool)
MS Contin morphine sulfate/ analgesic opioid receptor agonist
