'"`UNIQ--vote-00000199-QINU`"' Extends ampicillin's spectrum with better oral bioavailability. Susceptible to β-lactamases; clavulanate co-administration restores activity against many resistant organisms'"`UNIQ--ref-0000019A-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000001F6-QINU`"' CYP3A4 (primary) and P-glycoprotein substrate; strong dual inhibitors or inducers materially shift exposure. Reversal: andexanet alfa for life-threatening bleeding; 4F-PCC commonly used off-label when andexanet unavailable'"`UNIQ--ref-000001F7-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000237-QINU`"' Binds the same insulin receptor as endogenous insulin with comparable mitogenic-to-metabolic ratio; provides basal hepatic glucose suppression and peripheral glucose uptake without prandial peaks'"`UNIQ--ref-00000238-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000255-QINU`"' Less potent and shorter-acting than PPIs but with faster on-effect; suitable for on-demand acid suppression. Largely renally cleared; dose-adjust in renal impairment to avoid CNS effects (confusion in elderly)'"`UNIQ--ref-00000256-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000002D7-QINU`"' Hypoglycemia is the central risk, especially in elderly and renally impaired patients (glipizide has shorter half-life than glyburide, which is one reason it is preferred in older adults). CYP2C9 substrate; weight gain typical.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000032A-QINU`"' D3 (cholecalciferol) is more potent at raising serum 25(OH)D per dose; D2 remains widely prescribed in the US Rx 50,000 IU formulation'"`UNIQ--ref-0000032B-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000391-QINU`"' Minimal CYP metabolism; mostly renally cleared unchanged. Cetirizine is the active racemate; levocetirizine is the active R-enantiomer marketed separately'"`UNIQ--ref-00000392-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000003D1-QINU`"' SLCO1B1 polymorphism affects exposure but is most clinically actionable for simvastatin'"`UNIQ--ref-000003D2-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000042C-QINU`"' D3 is more potent than D2 at raising and sustaining serum 25(OH)D per dose, and is the more common OTC formulation; D2 remains the dominant Rx 50,000 IU formulation in the US for historical reasons.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000004A9-QINU`"' Modest HDL rise; LDL effects mixed. Renally cleared; combination with statin carries elevated myopathy risk (greater for gemfibrozil than fenofibrate, but caution still warranted)'"`UNIQ--ref-000004AA-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000004C8-QINU`"' Largely hepatically cleared (~80% biliary); no active metabolite. Sacubitril-valsartan (Entresto) combines an ARB with neprilysin inhibition for HFrEF and was a notable advance over the ARB-alone trial (PARADIGM-HF, 2014)'"`UNIQ--ref-000004C9-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000050D-QINU`"' CYP3A4 (primary) and P-glycoprotein substrate; strong dual inhibitors or inducers materially shift exposure. Reversal: andexanet alfa for life-threatening bleeding; 4F-PCC commonly used off-label when andexanet unavailable'"`UNIQ--ref-0000050E-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000584-QINU`"' Binds the same insulin receptor as endogenous insulin with comparable mitogenic-to-metabolic ratio. Ultra-rapid formulations (Lyumjev) add treprostinil and citrate to accelerate absorption further'"`UNIQ--ref-00000585-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000005D0-QINU`"' Selectivity comes from the viral-kinase-only initial phosphorylation step, which is why uninfected cells generate minimal active drug'"`UNIQ--ref-000005D1-QINU`"'. Dose-adjust by renal function; rare crystalline nephropathy with rapid IV acyclovir.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000061E-QINU`"' Less reliably anticholinergic than first-generation H1s; minimal antiemetic effect. Desloratadine (Clarinex) is the active enantiomer-of-metabolite version marketed as a Rx alternative.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000063C-QINU`"' Avoid in HFrEF (negative inotropy). CYP3A4 substrate AND moderate inhibitor — interacts substantially with statins (especially simvastatin), tacrolimus, cyclosporine, and many other CYP3A4 substrates'"`UNIQ--ref-0000063D-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000006BE-QINU`"' Drug-holiday concept (3-5 years on, 1-2 years off) emerged from FLEX and long-term safety data balancing fracture protection against atypical femoral fracture and osteonecrosis of the jaw signals'"`UNIQ--ref-000006BF-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000762-QINU`"' Largely renally cleared, hence the eGFR-tiered dosing. Rare but well-documented signals: acute pancreatitis (uncertain causal contribution), severe joint pain, and bullous pemphigoid (class effect, especially in older Asian patients)'"`UNIQ--ref-00000763-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000083E-QINU`"' CYP2C9 substrate; no clinically active metabolites. The IDNT trial established renoprotection in diabetic nephropathy independent of BP lowering, contributing to the ARB class indication in T2DM with proteinuria'"`UNIQ--ref-0000083F-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000860-QINU`"' Activates the glucocorticoid receptor to broadly remodel inflammatory, immune, and metabolic transcription. Unlike prednisone, it does not require hepatic activation, making it the preferred oral choice in severe hepatic dysfunction'"`UNIQ--ref-00000861-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000008BE-QINU`"' Preferred over prednisone in advanced hepatic dysfunction where hepatic 11β-HSD1 activation is impaired. Liquid formulations are the workhorse pediatric oral corticosteroid for asthma and croup'"`UNIQ--ref-000008BF-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000008E1-QINU`"' Like omeprazole, it is an acid-activated prodrug that covalently and irreversibly binds the H+/K+ ATPase. CYP2C19 PGx remains clinically relevant for both'"`UNIQ--ref-000008E2-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000950-QINU`"' Mostly renally cleared unchanged; dose-reduce in renal impairment. Like cetirizine, retains slightly more sedation than fexofenadine in some users'"`UNIQ--ref-00000951-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000975-QINU`"' Hyperammonemic encephalopathy (consider in any unexplained CNS depression), thrombocytopenia, and polycystic ovary syndrome are characteristic chronic-use adverse effects beyond hepatic and pancreatic risks'"`UNIQ--ref-00000976-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000009FD-QINU`"' Active against gram-positive cocci including MRSA; the unique target underlies the absence of cross-resistance with other antibiotic classes. High-level resistance (plasmid-mediated mupA) is rising and limits prolonged or repeated use'"`UNIQ--ref-000009FE-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000A1D-QINU`"' Like other ACE inhibitors, it raises bradykinin (driving the dry cough and rare angioedema). Renally cleared; dose-adjust in renal impairment'"`UNIQ--ref-00000A1E-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000AEA-QINU`"' The 24-hour half-life supports once-daily dosing with consistent overnight BP control. Largely hepatically cleared (~98% biliary); no significant renal clearance dependence'"`UNIQ--ref-00000AEB-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000B40-QINU`"' The TRANSFORM-HF trial (2023) found no all-cause mortality difference between torsemide and furosemide in heart failure, although torsemide remains pharmacologically preferred where furosemide oral absorption is unreliable'"`UNIQ--ref-00000B41-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000CC9-QINU`"' Mostly excreted unchanged in feces and urine; P-glycoprotein substrate (the basis of the fruit-juice interaction).
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000D11-QINU`"' Same mechanistic family as amphotericin B but with prohibitive systemic toxicity at therapeutic doses, hence restriction to topical and luminal-gut indications. No clinically meaningful resistance after decades of use'"`UNIQ--ref-00000D12-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000D7A-QINU`"' Substantial QT-interval prolongation — the most QT-prolonging fluoroquinolone — limits use in patients on other QT-prolonging agents or with electrolyte abnormalities'"`UNIQ--ref-00000D7B-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000DFA-QINU`"' CYP3A4 substrate; QT-interval prolongation has been reported at higher doses. Like other antimuscarinics, contributes to cumulative anticholinergic burden in older adults'"`UNIQ--ref-00000DFB-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000E4A-QINU`"' The narrow safe-bolus window for IV use (sharp risk of arrhythmia, hypertensive emergency, intracerebral hemorrhage) is why anaphylaxis dosing is '''IM, not IV''', outside critical care'"`UNIQ--ref-00000E4B-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000ECD-QINU`"' Agranulocytosis is the most-feared adverse effect (~0.3%, usually first 90 days of treatment; warn patients to seek urgent CBC for fever or severe sore throat). Hepatotoxicity is class-recognized but more often associated with PTU'"`UNIQ--ref-00000ECE-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001014-QINU`"' Activates the glucocorticoid receptor to broadly remodel inflammatory, immune, and metabolic transcription. The dipropionate, valerate, and augmented dipropionate ester forms determine topical potency (high to super-high)'"`UNIQ--ref-00001015-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000104D-QINU`"' Adequate hydration is at least as important as the drug in producing the expectorant effect clinically. Used in combination with dextromethorphan, decongestants, or antihistamines in many proprietary OTC cold preparations.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001067-QINU`"' Chronic use is associated with cathartic colon (colonic dilation, loss of haustration), hypokalemia, and laxative dependence; reserved for short-term use or bowel prep with breaks between courses'"`UNIQ--ref-00001068-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000010F8-QINU`"' Pre-treatment screening for latent TB (PPD or IGRA) and chronic hepatitis B is standard. Anti-drug antibody formation is a recognized cause of secondary loss of response'"`UNIQ--ref-000010F9-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000111B-QINU`"' Intraoperative floppy iris syndrome is a recognized class effect. Recently emerging evidence (observational) suggests possible Parkinson's disease risk reduction via PGK1 binding — investigational and not a clinical indication'"`UNIQ--ref-0000111C-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000113A-QINU`"' Concomitant β-blocker or CCB is required when used for AF to prevent 1:1 atrial flutter conduction (flecainide can slow atrial rate to a level where AV conduction allows dangerous ventricular rates). CYP2D6 substrate'"`UNIQ--ref-0000113B-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001197-QINU`"' Extracellular cGMP separately activates submucosal sensory afferents in a way that reduces visceral pain perception, distinguishing linaclotide from purely osmotic laxatives in IBS-C. Diarrhea is the dose-limiting effect'"`UNIQ--ref-00001198-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000011D5-QINU`"' Minimal systemic absorption and the dual mechanism underlie its first-line role in seasonal allergic conjunctivitis. Comfort drops without preservatives are available for sensitive patients'"`UNIQ--ref-000011D6-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000011F4-QINU`"' Like all NSAIDs, raises CV thrombotic risk modestly (FDA 2014/2015 advisory) and produces GI, renal, hypertensive, and platelet-inhibitory effects characteristic of the class'"`UNIQ--ref-000011F5-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001233-QINU`"' Onychomycosis cure rates with nail lacquer are modest (mycologic cure ~30-50%, complete cure ~5-12% at 48 weeks); oral terbinafine remains substantially more effective when systemic therapy is acceptable'"`UNIQ--ref-00001234-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000124C-QINU`"' The 400 mg/d dose for migraine prophylaxis is supported by randomized trials (Schoenen 1998) and remains a low-risk evidence-based supplement option. Characteristic bright-yellow urine fluorescence with high-dose oral supplementation.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001269-QINU`"' Renal, GI, hypertensive, and CV effects parallel the class profile; modest COX-2 preference may underlie some literature suggesting slightly better GI tolerability than non-selective NSAIDs, though clinically the difference is small'"`UNIQ--ref-0000126A-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001284-QINU`"' Systemic oral ketotifen (available outside US) has historical use for asthma adjunct therapy via the same dual mechanism, but oral use produces sedation and weight gain — the topical ophthalmic application largely avoids both'"`UNIQ--ref-00001285-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001302-QINU`"' Renally cleared; accumulation in advanced CKD can produce neuromuscular and cardiac depression. Hypomagnesemia frequently co-exists with hypokalemia and is often the reason refractory potassium loss does not correct until magnesium is repleted.
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000132D-QINU`"' Electrolyte-balanced bowel-prep formulations are designed to be iso-osmotic with plasma so the volume passes through without net fluid or electrolyte shifts, the basis of their safety for whole-bowel evacuation.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001356-QINU`"' Binds the same insulin receptor as endogenous insulin with comparable mitogenic-to-metabolic ratio'"`UNIQ--ref-00001357-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000013B1-QINU`"' Topical application minimizes systemic antihistaminic burden; the characteristic bitter taste with nasal use (drainage to oropharynx) is the main tolerability issue'"`UNIQ--ref-000013B2-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000013EE-QINU`"' Higher-dose Aygestin (5 mg) achieves more reliable ovulation suppression and is used for endometriosis and DUB. POP requires strict daily timing because the 24-hour cervical-mucus effect window is narrower than COC'"`UNIQ--ref-000013EF-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000014BC-QINU`"' Topical ophthalmic and otic formulations remain widely used in ENT and ophthalmology. Subject to all fluoroquinolone-class restrictions (tendinitis/rupture, peripheral neuropathy, QT prolongation)'"`UNIQ--ref-000014BD-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000014DD-QINU`"' The combination is the most-prescribed opioid analgesic in the US for moderate-to-severe acute pain. CPIC PGx guidance addresses CYP2D6-driven exposure variation'"`UNIQ--ref-000014DE-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000014F7-QINU`"' Falling out of favor for acute pain due to aspirin's GI bleeding and antiplatelet effects compared with acetaminophen-opioid combinations; still used in selected indications'"`UNIQ--ref-000014F8-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001513-QINU`"' The combination with acetaminophen provides additive non-opioid analgesia and lowers required codeine dose. CYP2D6 PGx is one of the most clinically actionable in current pharmacology; CPIC supports genotype-guided opioid selection'"`UNIQ--ref-00001514-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001549-QINU`"' Metabolic effects (weight gain, dyslipidemia, glucose dysregulation) dominate the long-term tolerability profile; routine metabolic monitoring is standard'"`UNIQ--ref-0000154A-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-00001580-QINU`"' First FDA-approved treatment for PBA. The 10 mg quinidine daily dose is far below antiarrhythmic levels but sufficient to nearly fully inhibit CYP2D6, the basis of the combination's pharmacokinetic rationale'"`UNIQ--ref-00001581-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--vote-000015CE-QINU`"' The dual-mechanism design exploits the inflammatory component of migraine that triptan monotherapy does not fully address. Risk of serotonin syndrome with SSRIs/SNRIs is theoretical but generally not seen clinically at triptan doses'"`UNIQ--ref-000015CF-QINU`"'.
