Question
Answer
infects and replicates in the upper respiratory tract (epithelium)system b/c climate-cooler temperature   influenza  
🗑
influenza   B that infect humans, spread via inhalation (droplets)  
🗑
Amantadine, Rimantidine, Oseltamivir (Tamiflu), Zanamivir (Relenza)   Anti-influenza agents  
🗑
Amantadine (anti-influenza agent)   prevent viral uncoding, blocks proton ion channels, active only against TYPE A INFLUENZA, eliminated unchanged in urine, 12-18 hrs, well absorbed, very significant incidence of resistance, cause CNS side effects  
🗑
Rimantidine (anti-influenza agent)   prevent viral uncoding, blocks proton ion channels,active only against TYPE A INFLUENZA, 4-10x more active in vitro, 24-36 hrs, liver metabolize then urine elimination(gets broken down before excreted)  
🗑
Amantadine & Rimantidine adverse effects   NVD, anorexia, CNS:nervousness, dizziness, insomnia, decrease concentration, lightheadness (worsened by antihistamines, anticholinergics)  
🗑
Which anti-influenza agent cause dopamine effects: behavioral changes, delirium, hallucinations, agitation, seizures   amantadine - interferes with dopamine receptors, has a lipid bilayer so it can cross into the BBB  
🗑
Zanamivir (Relenza) & Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) (anti-influenza agent)   active against both Type A & B influenza, prevent budding (viral release), inhibits viral neuraminidase (keeps virus attached to host cell) to keep virus from infecting other host cells  
🗑
necessary for release of newly replicated viruses from the host cell   viral neuraminidase  
🗑
Zanamivir (Relenza:anti-influenza agent)   given to pts > 7 yrs old,poor oral absorption so given via PO inhaler; nose/throat discomfort,bronchospasm,cough,decrease pulmonary fxn; renal excreted, do not use in pts w/airway disease (asthma, COPD, emphysema)  
🗑
Oseltamivir (Tamiflu - anti-influenza agent)   given to pts > 1 yrs old, PO, prodrug activated by hepatic kinases, renally excreted, 6-10hrs, NVD/abd pain less taken with food; high increase resistance  
🗑
Neuraminidase Inhibitors   Zanamivir (Relenza) & Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) (anti-influenza agents)  
🗑
Influenza Resistance   mutation in viral neuraminidase; many strains of influenza causing seasonal flu (H1N1) are resistant to amantadine/rimantadine  
🗑
Immunization for influenza   given yearly b/c high increase of resistance, influenza vaccine-highly effective  
🗑
