mechanism:
None (48) ·
Cardioselective β1-adrenergic antagonist. Selectivity is dose-dependent and partially lost at higher doses. (1) ·
High-affinity D2 receptor antagonist (1) ·
Non-selective competitive antagonist at β1 and β2 adrenergic receptors. Lipophilic; significant blood–brain barrier penetration, accounting for its CNS effects. (1) ·
Norepinephrine–dopamine reuptake inhibition (DAT, NET) (1) ·
Synthetic T4 (thyroxine); peripherally deiodinated to T3 (triiodothyronine), the active hormone. '"`UNIQ--vote-00000031-QINU`"' Narrow therapeutic index; brand-to-generic switches can shift TSH and require re-titration'"`UNIQ--ref-00000032-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000016-QINU`"' Bicarbonate is not benign: high-volume use produces hypernatremia, metabolic alkalosis, hypokalemia, and (in arrest) paradoxical intracellular acidosis'"`UNIQ--ref-00000017-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-0000001D-QINU`"' Major Beers-list concern in elderly patients for cognitive and fall risks. CYP2D6 substrate. At massive overdose, also produces sodium channel blockade with cardiac toxicity'"`UNIQ--ref-0000001E-QINU`"'.
'"`UNIQ--effect-0000001F-QINU`"' (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000037-QINU`"' Hypertonic 3% is the standard urgent treatment of severely symptomatic hyponatremia'"`UNIQ--ref-00000038-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000086-QINU`"' Calcium content is a relative contraindication for co-administration with citrated blood products through the same line'"`UNIQ--ref-00000087-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-000000D8-QINU`"' Recovery of acid output requires synthesis of new pump enzyme. CYP2C19 substrate; PGx genotype substantially affects exposure and efficacy'"`UNIQ--ref-000000D9-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`UNIQ--vote-00000117-QINU`"' Compared with omeprazole, pantoprazole has a more linear pharmacokinetic profile and is metabolized predominantly via CYP2C19 with CYP3A4 contribution; less CYP2C19-driven drug interaction with clopidogrel than omeprazole'"`UNIQ--ref-00000118-QINU`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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`"'. (1) ·
'"`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. (1)
