Ticagrelor is a reversible P2Y 12 receptor inhibitor. Remember, of the three P2Y 12 inhibitors - ticagrelor is the only one to end in -R ---- for "Reversible".

🔷Sevelamer is a phosphate binder. It is used to treat hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease. Sevelamer binds to dietary phosphate and prevents its absorption. Side effects are mostly GI related: constipation, diarrhea, dyspepsia, flatulence, nausea.

🔶Cinacalcet🔷 Cinacalcet is the active ingredient of Sensipar. Indications: - hyperparathyroidism due to kidney failure - hypercalcemia due to parathyroid carcinoma Cinacalcet is a calcimimetic drug - mimicking the action of calcium on tissues.

How to Remember 4th and 5th Gen. Cephalosporins! ☑️Fourth Generation - cefepime - cefpirome All contain "pi" + "me" within their names. ☑️Fifth Generation - Ceftobiprole - Ceftaroline - Ceftolozane All contain "ceft" + "ol" within their names.

Secukinumab works by inhibiting interleukin-17. Memory tool: Both SEcukinumab and SEventeen start with SE!

⭐️Drugs used to treat BPH⭐️ BPH = Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia 📌Alpha-blockers Effective immediately! - alfuzosin - doxazosin - tamsulosin - silodosin 📌5-alpha reductase inhibitors ...may take up to 6-months to be effective! - finasteride - dutasteride

⚡️ANTIARRHYTHMIC DRUGS⚡️ Class 1⃣ - sodium blockade (flecainide, lidocaine, disopyramide) Class 2⃣ - beta-blockers (esmolol, metoprolol) Class 3⃣ - potassium blockade (amiodarone, dronedarone, sotalol) Class 4⃣ - calcium channel blockers (verapamil, diltiazem)

⭐️RAPID REVISION ANTIBACTERIAL SIDE EFFECTS 1. Aminoglycosides = nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity 2. Tetracyclines = photosensitivity, enamel discoloration 3. Fluoroquinolones = tendon damage, QT prolongation 4. Penicillins = colitis 5. Macrolides = QT prolongation, tinnitus

🏥Lactulose - a drug for constipation - is effective at treating high blood ammonia which may otherwise lead to hepatic encephalopathy. Lactulose acidifies the colon, transforming freely diffusable ammonia into ammonium ions, which are prevented from diffusing back into blood.

Yikes, would you take a drug* with this side effect profile?! (*oh, it's the placebo arm of the Pfizer vaccine trial)

💊Phosphate Binders ...are used to reduce absorption of dietary phosphate. This is often a necessity in patients with chronic kidney failure who are unable to effectively eliminate phosphate. Examples: 🔸calcium carbonate 🔸sevelamer 🔸lanthanum carbonate 🔸aluminum salts

📌Remember! Short-acting beta-2 agonists contain BUT, whereas long-acting beta-2 agonists contain TER. SHORT BUT 🔸alBUTerol 🔸terBUTaline LONG TERM 🔹salmeTERol 🔹formoTERol

⚕️CD Inhibitors 🔸CD = Cluster of Differentiation CD system is used to allow cells to be defined based on what molecules are present on their surface; associating cells with specific immune functions. Examples: ➡️Rituximab = CD20 inhibitor ➡️Alemtuzumab = CD52 inhibitor
