pharm--antiarthritis

QuestionAnswer
when is tylenol useful? -Samter's sndrome -Hemphilia -active PUD -children w/viral infxns
metab of tylenol? -hepatically conjugated=>sulfate/glucuronide -high doses=>iminoquinone=>overwhemls glutath=>hepatic tox

why is Phenacetin banend in us? -carcinogenicc -nephrotox
use of Chlorquine/hydroxy? -FDA: RA...used for others like SLE, Sjoegrens -pts w/ MILD dz w/o bony erosions (not help w/bone damage)
metab of chloroquine? -oral ->plasma proteins -> esp taken up by melanin-tissues like eyes -> slow liver metab (1/2= 40 d!)
shortcoming of chlorquien? -takes months to work and for mild dz only
ae of chlorquine? -ocular toxicity -GI effects, rash, nightmares
chlloroquine + preg? 0ok
name the types of DMARDs -glucocorticoids -immunosuppresants -gold, penicillamine -biologicals -tnf-a blockers
typical use of glucocorticois? -most pts -esp early and in acute flares -esp intra-articularly -and for extra-articular manifestations
moa of mtx? -inhib of AICAR ribonucleotide transformylase and thymidine synthase and leukocyte chemotaxis (high doses: inhib dihydrofolate reductase) ..mostly inhibits prolif/form of proinflam cytokines and ->apoptosis of inflam cells (vs DHFR=>lymphos and MOs)
metab of mtx? -oral-> liver metab ->distrib widely= polyglutamated resorvoir -urine > bile excretion
hydroxychorquine + mtx? reduced mtx renal clearance...
ae of mtx? -nausea, apthous ulcers = MC -pneumonitis, pseudolymphomatous rxns -rarely cirrhosis (biopsy every 5 yrs)
c/i of mtx? preg
use of leucovorin w/ mtx? -reduces GI/liver tox, but decreases drug efficacy
moa of cyclophosphamide? -prodrug -> phoshoramide mustard => akylates and x-links DNA=> prevents cell replication -suppresse T-cell (some B-cell) fxn in AI dzs
ae of cyclophos? hemorrhagic cystitis...rare w/low doses used for AI dzs
moa of cyclosporine? -inhibits IL-1 and IL-2 RECEPTOR produc and fxns of T-cells
use of cyclosproine? -FDA: RA...used in others though (sle, juvenile, wegerns)
problems w/ cyclosporine? -erratic biavail..use microemulsion formul -cyp3a4 metab...drug-drug
ae of cycloporine? -NEPHROTOX (monitor BP and SCr) -hyperkalemia -gingival hyperplasia -hirsuitism -rarely hepatotox ...MONITOR WHOLE BLOOD LEVELS to avoid tox
moa of sulfasalazine? -reduces produc of Rhematoid factor, suppresses T-cell fxn and B-cell prolif (decrease rlease/produc of inflam cytokines)
metab of sulfasalzine -hydrolyzed in GI=> Sulfapyridine (RA, ankyl spond) and 5-aminosalicylic acid (IBD) -only 20% bioavail after oral, but some goes->enterohepatic recirculation=>hydrolysis via intestinal bacterial =>sulfpyradine liberation=>hepatic metab
ae of sulfasalazine? -GI, h.a., rash -1/3 d/c -neutropenia, hemolytic anemia -pulm tox -methemoglobinbemia -REVERSIBLE INFERTILITY IN MEN! but non-teratogenic
moa of leflunomide -prodrug to dihydroorotate dehydrogase inhib => decrease ribonucleotide synth and => cell cycle arrest in G1 ...=>inhib of T-cell prolif and B-cell auto-AB produc
use of LEflunomide? mostly RA...as effective as MTX...oftne used as combo w/ MTX
metab of Leflunomide? -oral => plasma and GI=>active drug =>enteroheptic circulation
drug itneractions w/ leflunomide? -cholestyramine and resin binders can interrupt the meteab (enterohepatic circ) => increased clearance
ae of leflunomide? -diarrhea -LFTs -alopecia -wt gain -htn
c/i of leflunomide? preg
moa of mycophenolate mofetil? -prodrug -> immed hydrolyzed to mycophenolic acid -> inhib iosine monophosphate dehydrogenase =>T_cell prolif/leukocyte adhesion inhib via ICAM-1 inhib....
use for mycophenolate mofetil? -mc in Lupus nephritis, s.t. vasculitis/wegeners -NOT usually for RA
moa of azathioprine? -hepatic metab=> 6-thioguanine, which inhibits INOSINIC ACID and then PURINE synth, then reduces B- and T_cell fxn , IG produc, IL-2 secretion
metab of aza? -genetically based...10% have less fxn of thiopurine s-methytransferase and .3% have hardly any fxn...high rx of myelosuppression if dont reduce dose
use of aza? fda: RA...also used for psoraitic arth , lupus, behcet dzs
ae of aza? BM SUPPRESSION....GI, infxn, lyymphoma Allergy: fever/rash/LFTs
problem w/ D-penicillamine? what to do if you do use it? -slow, not that effective, Lupus like illness, leukopenia (and bad GI effects) -must monitor: temp, cbc, renal fxn
problem w/ gold tx? -limited efficcy, unk moa, IM -apthous ulcers!...thrymobocyto, proteinuria, leukppenia, anemia, NITRITOID RXN , chronic=>ligh blue skin
name the biologicals abatacept anakinra rituximab
moa of abatacept -costim modulation: binds CD80 and CD86 on APC => prevents t-cell binding to cd28 and stops t-cell activatilon
dosing of abatacept -IV, based on body wt, every 2 wks
use of abatcept mod-sever dz when other DMARDs ineffecctive
ae of abatacept -rx of infxn, infusion rxn, hypersens, lymphoma -synergetist w/ tnf-a inhibs=>HIGH rx of infxn
moa of anakinra -human recomb (IL-1 receptor antag -has N-terminal methionine=> block receptor w/o activation
use and admin of anakinra -daily SQ; combo w/ other DMARDs (NOT tnf-a! infxns!)
ae of anakinra -injection site rxns are very common, but resolve -less serious infxns than tnf-a inhibs -neutropenia s.t. occurs
moa of rituximab -chimeric monoclonal AB targers cd20 b-lymphos...reduces inflam of cell- and compelment-mediated cytotix, tim apoptosis, inhib secretion of coytokines, dcreases antigen present to T_cells
admin and use of ritux -IV post-pretx w/ IV steroid to prevent infusion rxns -used post-failure of tnf-a blockers

name the tnf-a blockers -adalimumab -infliximab -etanercept
tnf approved for ra
moa of adalimumab? -IgG monoclonal ab: prevents soluble tnfa from interacting w/ p55 and p75 cell surface receptors -> MO and T-cell downregulation

ae of adalimbumab -infxn, lymphoma (but not solid tumors) -ana abs, ds-dna abs, leukopenia, vasculitis

admin and use of infliximab -IV q8wks usu w/ mtx -fda: ra, sporiatic arth, anyl spon, crohns...used for others though
ae of of inflixmab -infxn, TB REACTIVATION,hbv reactiv -lymphoma? -infusion site rxns (pre-tx w/ h1 and h2 blockers and steroids)
moa of etanercept -recomb fusion protein: links 2 extracel doamins of TNF p75 w/ Fc of IgG = binding of tnfa-a AND tnf-b

ae of etanercept -injfec site rxns -LESS reactivation TB -infxns, lymphoma -ab formation to the drug if not used w/ mtx
what is tofacitinib? use? -inhib of JAK ...st. in combo w/ MTX/nonbiologics -2x/d oral for mod-severe RA unresponsive to mtx
ae of tofac? -uri, h.a., gi -infxns, lymphoma, cancers, GI perforations -LFTs, cholesteral increase, lowers leukocutes -$$$
what not to combine tofac w/ ? -immunosuppres or bioligicals
metab of tofac? -mostly cyp3a4 and cyp2c19, then renal excetion...reduce if ckd
if you use tofac you must monitor freq
mc combo for ra mtx + cyclosporine/antimalarial/leflu/ritux/anti-tnf...not aza, gold, sulfasal w/ mtx...not useful
