|
MOA furosemide in treating acute hypercalcemia?
|
inhibits Ca reabsorption in the loop of henle to increase Ca excretion
|
|
What diuretic will treat Ca containing kidney stones?
|
thiazide diuretic
|
|
MOA of sodium phosphate in treating hypercalcemia?
|
complexes with free, ionized calcium to reduce plasma ionized calcium levels
|
|
What effect does PTH have on bone?
|
takes Ca and P out of bone
|
|
MOA pamidronate in treating hypercalcemia?
|
concentrates in bone and inhibits osteoclast-induced bone resorption to decrease Ca release from bone and reduce plasma Ca levels
|
|
What drug can cause osteonecrosis of the jaw and bone or muscle pain?
|
bisphosphonates
|
|
MOA calcitonin in treating hypercalcemia?
|
hormone that decreases bone resorption and increase Ca excretion by the kidney
|
|
MOA cinacalcet in treating hypercalcemia?
|
Sensitizes the Ca sensing receptor on parathyroid cells to inhibit PTH secretion at lower levels of serum Ca than normal.
|
|
Which can cause hypocalcemia? Calcitriol, cinacalcet, vitamin D, Bisphosphonates
|
cinacalcet
|
|
What are the 3 main drugs to treat osteoporosis?
|
Bisphosphonates
Calcitonin Teriparatide |
|
What is the MOA of teriparatide in treating osteoporosis?
|
recombinant PTH analogue - when given once a day in the fall (exogenous, intermittent stimulation), it actives the PTH receptor on osteoblasts to increase their activity and deposit bone.
|
|
What are the 2 main treatments of Paget’s disease
|
Calcitonin
Bisphosphonates |
|
What is the difference between cholecalciferol or vitamin D, calcitriol and paricalcitol?
|
What is the difference between cholecalciferol or vitamin D, calcitriol and paricalcitol?
|
|
What happens to PTH levels with Rickets?
|
increased
|
|
Which agent works better in a patient with Rickets?
Vitamin D or Calcitriol |
both about the same
|
|
Which agent works better in a patient with hypoparathyroidism?
Vitamin D or Calcitriol |
calcitriol
|
|
Which agent works better in a patient with chronic renal disease?
Vitamin D or Calcitriol |
calcitriol
|
|
What happens to PTH levels with chronic renal disease?
|
increased
|
|
What is the MOA of paricalcitol in treating chronic kidney disease?
|
decrease PTH secretion which will prevent bone resorption (use when calcitriol causes unacceptably high serum Ca levels)
|
|
What is the MOA of cinacalcet in treating chronic kidney disease?
|
sensitizes the Ca sensing receptor on the parathyroid gland to Ca which decreases PTH hormone release thereby preventing bone resorption
