Question
Answer
Antacids   neutralize gastric acid  
🗑
Coating agents   form complex that adheres to crater of ulcer.  
🗑
Histamine-2 blkers   decrease hydrochloric acid (increases pH)  
🗑
Proton Pump Inhibitors   reduce gastric acid (parietal cells) secretion by irreversibly inhibiting enzyme to produce gastric acid.  
🗑
Prokinetic Agents   Increases emptying of stomach to reduce reflux, stimul. GI motility, anti-emetic.  
🗑
Antispasmotic Agents   reduce enzymes needed for digestion, decr. GI motility and secretions.  
🗑
Dopamine Antagonists   inhibit dopam. recept.(part of pathway to vomiting center)  
🗑
Serotonin Antagonists   Blk receptors in chemorecept. trigger zone  
🗑
Anticholinergics   reduces acetylcholine @ chemorecept. trigg. zone and vomiting center.  
🗑
Corticosteroids   UNKNOWN ACTION  
🗑
Benzodiazepines   sedat, decr.anxiety, VC depression, amnesic effect.  
🗑
Neurokinin-1Recept. antagonist   Blocks effects of Substance P in CNS. (Prevention of acute/delayed chemo-induced N/V.  
🗑
Decongestants   Vasoconstrict=decrease in mucus, relieves stuffiness.  
🗑
Antihistamines   Does not prevent hist. release, but reduces symptoms of allerg. reaction, tiss.damge, or infection.  
🗑
