  9. What are the SE of ARBs?
    • Cough (much less than ACEI)
    • Angioedema (much less than ACEI)
    • Hyperkalemia
    • Renal toxicity
  10. What are the SE of TCAs?
    • Anticholinergic SE (anti-SLUD - salivation, lacrimation, urination, defecation)
    • Sedation
    • Wt gain
    • Alpha blockade
    • QT prolongation
    • Torsades de pointes
  11. What are the SE of Carbamazepine?

    • Dizziness
    • Auto-induction
    • 3A4 induction
  12. What are the SE of Valproate?
    • Wt gain
    • Tremor
    • Alopecia
    • Increased LFTs
    • Increased ammonia
    • Loss of libido

    • Skin rash
    • Cramping
    • N
    • Abdominal pain
    • Sudden cardiac arrest (QT prolongation)
  17. How do ACEI protect against nephropathy?
    dilation of efferent arteriole = decreased pressure in glomerulus = decreased protein in urine = decreased progression of kidney disease
  18. How do CCBs protect against neuropathy?
    • vasodilation
    • decreased HR
    • negative inotrope
    • (decreased CO overall)
  19. How do TCAs help protect against neuropathy?
    slow the nerve conduction = decreased pain
  20. How does pregabalin protect against neuropathy?
    • unknown
    • binds with high affinity to the alpha2-delta site in CNS tissues
    • decrease in Ca dependent release of several neurotransmitters is seen in vitro
  21. How does Duloxetine protect against neuropathy?
    potent inhibitor of neuronal 5-HT and NE reuptake and a weak DA reuptake inhibitor
  22. What is the MOA of Metoclopramide in gastroparesis?
    • 5-HT4 agonist
    • 5-HT3 antagonist
    • D2 antagonist
    • Cholinergic facilitator
  23. Wht is the MOA of Erythromycin in gastroparesis?
    Motilin receptor agonist
