Blood drugs- Cardiovascular drugs ( Chapter 5/7) | Lipincott review
Thrombus= A clot that adheres to vessel wall Embolus= intravascular clot that floats in the blood Platelet aggregation inhibitor Platelet Aggregation =Stimulation of Platelets by Thrombin, Collagen and ADP… Activation of Phospholipase..liberate Arachidonic acid..Arachidonic acid convert into Prostaglandin H2(PG) by COX-1….PG H2 convert into TX A2 ..cause aggregation Fibrinogen attach GP IIb/IIIa receptor..cross-linking..aggregation of platelets Aspirin= inhibit COX1 by irreversible Acetylation of Serine…Arachidonic acid not convert into TX A2…..inhibit aggregation Also inhibit TX A2 Synthetase…activate Prostacyclin...furthur inhibition of aggregation… Ibuprofen anatagonize platelet inhibition by Aspirin Aspirin is only NSAID that irreversibly exhibit antithrombotic property…81mg of Aspirin known as “Baby Aspirin”….S.E; bleeding time prolong Clopidogrel, Ticlopidine, Prasugrul= MOA= irreversibly inhibit binding of ADP to GP IIb/IIIa…inhibit activation of receptor…inhibit...
