migraines

clinical neuro 3

QuestionAnswer
receptors affected by chlorpromazine & prochlorperazine DA, Ach, adrenergic, histaminergic
adverse effects of DA antagonists poikilothermic, blurred vision, constipation, agranulocytosis, phototoxicity, EPS
1 dose of sumatriptan = aspirin + metoclopramide
NSAIDS most effective when taken early on in an attack
benefit of nasal spray 5HT1 agonists faster and more effective relief
5HT1 agonists + DA antagonists used for severe acute attacks
amidrine = acetaminophen + dichloralphenazone + isometheptene
potent vasoconstrictor isometheptene
analgesic, anti-pyretic, and sedative drug dichloralphenazone
propanolol use prophylactic drug for migraines
pizotifen use prophylactic drug for migraines
MOA of pizotifen 5HT1, 2A, & 2C antagonist, with some anti-histamine/cholinergic effects
side effect of pizotifen weight gain, drowsiness, anti-muscarinic effect
3 major components of theory of cortical spreading depression correlates to visual field distrubances, mediated by release of pro-inflam neuropeptides, involves activating of trigeminal afferents from dural vasculature
3 major arguments for serotonin theory anti-migraine agents are 5HT agonists/antagonists, increased risk of attack during resperpine/fenfluramine therapy
triptans & ergot alkaloids are.. 5HT agonists
MOA of triptans vasoconstriction & 5HT-1 mediated inhibition of CGRP
not effective in migraines w/aura until after the headache has already begun triptans
contraindications of triptans CV disease and cerebrovascular disease
receptors acted on by triptans 5HT 1B & 1D
receptors acted on by ergot alkaloids 5HT1
contraindications of egot alkaloids pregnancy, PAD, CAD, HTN, impaired renal/hepatic function
MOA of meteoclopramide 5HT4 agonist, D2 antagonist, 5HT3 antagonist
helps w/nausea/vomitting in migraines metoclopramide
adverse effects of metoclopramide galactorrhea, constipation, EPS, tardive dyskinesia
contraindications for metclopramide pheochromocytoma, PD
DA antagonists used to treat migraines chlorpromazine & prochlorperazine
receptors affected by chlorpromazine & prochlorperazine DA, Ach, adrenergic, histaminergic
adverse effects of DA antagonists poikilothermic, blurred vision, constipation, agranulocytosis, phototoxicity, EPS

analgesic, anti-pyretic, and sedative drug dichloralphenazone
propanolol use prophylactic drug for migraines
pizotifen use prophylactic drug for migraines
MOA of pizotifen 5HT1, 2A, & 2C antagonist, with some anti-histamine/cholinergic effects
side effect of pizotifen weight gain, drowsiness, anti-muscarinic effect
extremely potent vasodilator neuropeptide calcitonin gene related peptide
most effecacious triptans rizatriptan,eletriptan; sumatriptan, zolmitriptan
least efficacious triptans naratriptan, frovatriptan
bromocriptine ergot alkaloid
LSD ergot alkaloid
methysergide ergot alkaloid
agonists at 5HT and a1 receptors ergot alkaloids
side effects of ergot alkaloids leg weakness, muscle pain, numbness/tingling, GI issues, nausea
post partum hemorrhage ergot alkaloids
metoclopramide DA antagonists
clinical uses of chlorpromazine & prochlorpromazine antiemetic, schizophrenia, tourette syn, huntington disease, dementia
butorphanol narcotic
meperidine narcotic
MOA of butorphanol partial agonist @u, full agonist @k
administration of butorphanol intranasal spray
administration of meperidine IV
concern for addiction liability oxycodone, hydrocodone, etc
zolmitriptan 5HT1 agonist
dihydroergotamine 5HT1 agonist
sumatriptan 5HT1 agonist
acetaminophen + dichloralphenazone + isometheptene = amidrine
MOA of amitriptyline, dothiepin, & nortriptyline 5HT & NE reuptake inhibitors, block Na+ channels,
clinical uses of tricyclics migraine prophylaxis, pain syn, chronic fatigue syn
may precipitate mania in bipolar pts tricyclic antidepressants
clinical uses of valproic acid generalized seizures, absence seizures, migraine prophylaxis
MOA of valproid acid prolongs inactive state of Na+ channels, inhibits Ca++ channels, increases GABA
MOA ofgabapentin inhibits ca++ channels
may be associated with withdrawl sx gabapentin
MOA of methysergide 5HT2 & 5HT1A antagonist
retroperitoneal fibrosis methysergide
clinical uses of methysergide migraine prophylaxis, severe refractory migraines, cluster headaches
migraine prophylaxis drugs propranolol, pizotifen, tricyclic Ads, valproic acid, gabapentin, methysergide
