DownloadWhat is the mechanism of action of beta-blockers in treating hypertension?
Omdraaien
Beta-blockers work by blocking beta-adrenergic receptors, which reduces heart rate and cardiac output, ultimately lowering blood pressure.
Which class of diuretics is most effective in treating acute pulmonary edema?
Omdraaien
Loop diuretics, such as furosemide, are most effective in treating acute pulmonary edema due to their potent diuretic effect.
What is the primary adverse effect associated with aminoglycoside antibiotics?
Omdraaien
The primary adverse effects of aminoglycosides include nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity.
How do proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) reduce gastric acid secretion?
Omdraaien
PPIs irreversibly inhibit the HK+ ATPase enzyme in the gastric parietal cells, leading to a significant reduction in acid secretion.
What is the therapeutic use of methotrexate in rheumatoid arthritis?
Omdraaien
Methotrexate is used as a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) to reduce inflammation and slow disease progression in rheumatoid arthritis.
Which anticoagulant is preferred during pregnancy and why?
Omdraaien
Heparin is preferred during pregnancy because it does not cross the placenta, reducing the risk of fetal complications.
What is the antidote for acetaminophen overdose?
Omdraaien
N-acetylcysteine is the antidote for acetaminophen overdose, as it replenishes glutathione and helps prevent liver damage.
How do statins lower cholesterol levels?
Omdraaien
Statins inhibit HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme involved in cholesterol synthesis, leading to decreased cholesterol levels and increased LDL receptor expression.
