Phenothiazine chemical structure

A 'thiazine' is a 6-membered, unsaturated ring (-ine) with a sulfur (thi-) and a nitrogen (az-). The 'pheno' tells you that there is a benzene ring(s) attached. These agents are a common class of psychoactive drugs that possess antipsychotic, antihistaminic, antiemetic, and anesthetic activities. They are lipophilic and can cross the blood-brain barrier. They are used for a variety of indications including treatment of schizophrenia, nausea/vomiting, and sedation. They have varying activity against muscarinic, adrenergic, dopamine, histamine, and serotonin receptors, dependent on the functional group substitutions. Ex: Chlorpromazine

Beta lactam chemical structure

In organic chemistry, a 'lactam' is a cyclic amide. The Greek letter nomenclature tells you how big the ring is (i.e., the carbon atom that connects back to the nitrogen making the ring). The beta (β) lactam antibiotics are composed of the pencillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and monobactams. These drugs mimic the D-Ala-D-Ala amino acid residues in the peptidoglycan layer of the bacterial cell wall. They are recognized by, and by virtue of their reactive beta lactam ring, covalently bind to and inhibit the transpeptidase enzymes responsible for cell wall biosynthesis.

Sulfonylureas chemical structure

The characteristic sulfone combined with a urea (sulfonylurea) is shown There are several 'generations' of these antidiabetic (hypoglycemic) agents used to treat type 2 diabetes. They act by antagonizing K+ channels on the pancreatic beta cells which ultimately results in an increased release of insulin. Like the thiazide diuretics, these agents were initially discovered by studying the sulfonamide antibacterial agents. Ex: Glyburide, Glimepiride, Glipizide

Tetracycline chemical structure

The complicated chemical structure of tetracycline (shown) with a rigid scaffold of 4-fused rings and multiple stereocenters is indicative of a natural product. The 4-ring scaffold is a reduced 'naphthacene' (aka tetracene) ring system. These broad-spectrum antibacterial agents possess an easily recognizable, 4-ring scaffold. Their antibacterial activity derives from inhibition of the bacterial ribosome, and a resulting blockade of protein production. They possess many adverse effects, but some recent approvals with expanded activity against resistant pathogens have renewed interest in this class.

Coumarins chemical structure

The coumarin ring system is shown in red in the structure of warfarin shown. Note the chiral center indicated by the asterisk. Marketed warfarin is racemic, but the R- and S-isomers possess significant differences in potency and metabolism. Coumarin-derivatives possess well-known anticoagulant activity by their inhibition of vitamin K biosynthesis (required by clotting factors). Newer, direct-acting agents such as factor Xa and thrombin inhibitors are beginning to replace coumarin use as they are safer agents, but the prototype agent, warfarin, is still highly prescribed and merits inclusion here.

ST segment elevation is a major ECG abnormality associated with:

The diagnosis of myocardial infarction

Inspiratory reserve volume is:

The maximal amount of air that can be inhaled

Vital capacity:

The maximum amount of air a person can expel from the lungs after a maximum inhalation

Alveolar deposition of particles from metered dose inhalers is most affected by:

The particle size of the drug molecules

Phenethylamines chemical structure

The phenethylamine scaffold is shown in red. Addition of a hydroxyl group at the 1 (beta)-carbon gives a phenylethanolamine, while addition of meta- and para-hydroxyl groups on the benzene ring give a catecholamine. In chemistry nomenclature 'phenyl' typically means possessing a benzene ring. These agents and the related catecholamines and phenylethanolamines are typically associated with stimulant activity by acting as agonists of the adrenergic receptors (alpha and beta) or dopamine receptors. Lipophilic analogs are also known to possess CNS activity (e.g. amphetamines).

Quinolones & Fluoroquinolones Chemical Structure

The quinolone core structure is shown. Ring-numbering begins at the nitrogen atom and skips ring juncture (not substitutable) atoms. The fluorine (of fluoroquinolones) is attached to the 6-position. The S.A.R. of these agents is well established. The quinolone and the related fluoroquinolone antibiotics possess a bicyclic, 4-quinolone core structure. A quinolone is quinoline with a ketone at the 2- or 4-position (the -one suffix commonly means possessing a ketone). These agents are used to treat a wide variety of Gram-positive and Gram-negative infections and act by inhibiting the bacterial topoisomerase enzymes that are responsible for maintaining DNA topology during replication and transcription.

What is the therapeutic index for a drug?

The ratio of the median toxic dose (TD50) to the median effective dose (ED50)

Steroids chemical structure

The steroid scaffold is one of the most easily recognized chemical scaffolds, possessing four rings connected in a specific pattern (three 6-membered rings, and one 5-membered ring). Differing substitution patterns of functional groups and degrees of ring unsaturation (double bonds) yield the different activities seen related to steroid receptor affinity. Agents that fall in this class include glucocorticosteroids, mineralocorticosteroids, androgens, estrogens, and progestins. Depending on the sub-class, the steroid agents possess a wide range of biological activities by acting as agonists (activators) of the intracellular steroid receptors. Steroid receptors are 'nuclear receptors' that act as transcription factors that bind to DNA and regulate gene expression.

Benzodiazepine chemical structure

The structure is easily recognizable if you understand the chemistry naming conventions: benzo (containing a benzene ring), -diaz- (two nitrogens), -epine (7-membered unsaturated ring). These agents are agonists of the GABA receptors, and because they are lipophilic, can cross the blood-brain barrier easily (i.e. they are psychoactive). They are commonly used for CNS indications such as sedative-hypnotics, anxiety, and for treatment of seizure disorders.

Aminoglycoside doses should be adjusted for obese patients because:

There is significant difference in the total amount of water per kg in obese patients

Thiazides chemical structure

These agents are derivatives of benzothiadiazine (red portion) and are weak acids. The scaffold possesses two sulfonamide groups, one at the 7-position, and a cyclic sulfonamide (aka a sultam). Thiazides (and thiazide-like agents) are a common class of diuretics used to treat hypertension and edematous conditions (heart failure, liver failure, kidney failure). They promote diuresis by blocking an ion transporter in the kidney, preventing reabsorption of sodium and chloride (and hence water).

Opioids chemical structure

These agents are natural products (or derived from natural products), hence the more complicated structure. The structure of morphine (shown as most commonly drawn) has five joined rings, including one bridging ring system (dark lines). The stereochemistry is very important for activity. Opioid drugs act as agonist of the opioid receptors and are typically used as central analgesics for pain management. They are lipophilic and can cross the blood-brain barrier. These agents, exemplified by the prototype morphine, possess multicyclic scaffolds of 5-rings (morphine), 4-rings (morphinan class), 3-rings (benzazocine class), or 2-rings (oripavine). The 5-ring class (morphine, codeine, hydromorphone, hydrocodone, etc.) is the most common and most recognizable.
