Question
Answer
cell-cycle specific   chemotherapy drugs that are most effective during a particular phase(cycle) of the cell cycle.  
🗑
cell-cycle non specific   chemotherapy drugs that are independent of cell cycles.  
🗑
Antimetabolites   Mimic natural products that are used for DNA and RNA synthesis. Most effective during S phase and against tumors with a high growth fraction.  
🗑
5-Flourouracil pharmacodynamics and C/P   PD-Antimetabolite most effective during S phase. Leads to thymine deficiency. IV C-Poor nutritional status, depressed bone marrow function,serious infection. Platelet count below 100,000 cells/mm3 pyrimidinema P-use cause if woman is breast-feeding  
🗑
5-Flourouracil Adverse Effects   myelosuppresion, cardiotoxicity, headaches, disorientation, nystagmus. NVD. GI ulceration. brittle cracking nails, alopeica, hyperpigmentation of skin, rash.  
🗑
Mitotic Inhibitors   interfere with the formation of the mitotic spindle causing metaphase arrest  
🗑
Vincristine(Oncovin) Pharmacodynamics and C/P   PD-treats acute lymphoblastic leukemia Disrupts mitotic spindle. C-Charcot-Marie-Tooth syndrome (absence of deep tendon reflexes), P-if bilirubin levels are elevation. High risk of extravasation. IV ONLY  
🗑
Vincristine Adverse Effects   loss of deep tendon reflexes, numbness and tingling, foot drop, jaw pain, weakness, constipation.  
🗑
Cyclophosphamide Pharmacodynamics and C/P   For testicular, ovarian, and bladder cancers alkylating agent with broad spectrum antitumor actitivy. IV and oral. adds alkyl groups to DNA and causes abnormal base pairings. C-severely compromised bone marrow function. poor renal or hepatic functions.  
🗑
Cyclophosphamide Adverse Effects   leukopenia. High doses=hemorrhagic cystitis-hematuria, pain,burning urination. SIADH and cardiomyophathy. NV alopecia, transverse ridging and hyperpigmentation of nails. gonadal suppression, sterility, and ovarian fibrosis. 2nd malignancy possible  
🗑
Cyclophosphamide interventions   Have patient drink at least 2L/day. monitor urine output 2nd malignancy more likely in younger patients. Discuss reproduction goals with patients.  
🗑
Doxorubicin HCL   antitumor antibiotics-intercalation btw specific base pairs=no new RNA or DNA C-myelosuppresion,severe CHF, existing cardiomyopathy. P-Hepatic insufficiency Also secondary acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) can occur  
🗑
Doxorubicin adverse effects   NV, suppression of bone marrow function, mucositis. alopeica and hyperpigmentation of nail beds. cardiotoxicity. risk of local necrosis if extravasation occurs. erythema, blisters, edema, skin loss, and occasionally ulcer formation.  
🗑
Tamoxifen   first line drug against breast cancer. highly protein bound and metabolized. antiestrogen-competes with estrogen for binding sites. c/p-known hypersensitivity to the drug, myelosuppression and pregnant or lactating  
🗑
Tamoxifen adverse effects   hot flashes, mild nausea, weight gain, headache, vaginal bleeding and discharge, menstrual irregularities, fluid retention, skin rash. endometrial cancer or polyps. strokes, pulmonary embolism  
🗑
tamoxifen intervention   monthly blood counts, annual PAP smears, regular visual tests. Have patients report signs of hypercalcemia  
🗑
Penicillin   used against gram + bacteria. And gram- neisseria meningitidis. Pen G not oral. Pen V oral. binds of PBP and inhibits transpeptidase so cross bridges in cell wall cannot form. C-known allergy to pen, ceph, or imipenem. P-renal disease, pregnancy  
🗑
Penicillin Adverse Effects   most serious-allergic reaction. NVD abdominal pain, stomatitis, sore mouth furry tongue. superinfections possible tetracyclides decrease effectiveness  
🗑
cephalosporins cefazolin   Similar to penicillin. Binds to PBP's and disrupts cell wall synthesis. C-known allergy P-renal failure, pregnant, lactating 5-10% chance of being allergic if also allergic to penicillin  
🗑
cephalorsporin adverse effect   serious-hypersensitivity common-NVD anorexia, abdominal pain, flatulence. superinfections can develop. pseudomembranous colitis potentially dangerous  
🗑
Vancomycin   effective against gram + bacteria. inhibits cell wall synthesis by altering cell's permeability. inhibits synthesis of RNA. C-hypersenitivity or pregnant P-lactating, renal disease,  
🗑
Vancomycin adverse effects   serious toxicities-ototoxicity, nephrotoxicity. "red man" syndrome due to histamine release. infuse IV slowly and avoid extravasation  
🗑
Aminoglycosides-Gentamicin   effective against gram- bacilli. ineffective against anaerobes.binds with 30S ribosomal subunit causes misreadings. C-preg/lact allergy P-renal or hepatic disease or myasthenia gravis  
🗑
Aminoglycosides-Gentamicin adverse effects   neurotoxicity, nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, depressed bone marrow function, NVD, palpations, hypotension and hpyertension  
🗑
Aminoglycosides-Gentamicin interventions   peak and trough drug levels monitored, monitor for signs of toxicity,  
🗑
Lincosamides-Clindamycin   effective against aerobic gram+ cocci. most anaerobes (gram+/-) also susceptible. Binds to bacterial ribosomes and prevents protein synthesis. C-preg/lact, allergies, heptatic/renal dysfunction P-history of ulcerative colitis or regional enteritis  
🗑
Lincosamides-Clindamycin   pseudomembranous colitis, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, abdominal tenderness, nausea, vomiting. rash reports signs of diarrhea immediately!  
🗑
Macrolides-Erythromycin   more effective against gram+. inhibits RNA-dependent protein synthesis. C-allergy P-hepatic insufficiency preg/lact, cardiac arrhythmias,impaired hearring  
🗑
Macrolides-Erythromycin Adverse Effects   hepatotoxicity, QT prolongation, pseudomembranous colitis, ventricular tachycardia, GI distress.  
🗑
Tetracycline   bacteriostatic, prevent cell division and replication. administered orally C-allergy P-hepatic/renal dysfunction, younger than 8. used for rickettsia, mycoplasma pneumoniae, chlamydia, and acne. Dairy hinders absorption.  
🗑
Tetracycline Adverse Effects   azotemia, discoloration of teeth, nausea, vomiting, and photosensitivity.  
🗑
