for Nursing Students

3 steps to follow

when Studying in Pharmacology Class

Cephalosporins

cefadroxil tetracycline

levofloxacin

cefazolin doxycycline

ciprofloxacin

cephalexin minocycline

gemifloxacin

Fluoroquinolones Tetracyclines

Antibiotics step 1 main category step 2 Medication class step 3 Individual Drugs step 1 step 2 step 3 Knowing what the topic entails is essential before diving into the individual medications. What does it do in the body? What are the precautions you need to know? Example: Antibiotics are used for bacterial infections, you must finish the entire prescription because not finishing the prescribed course will increase the risk of a superinfection. Now that you understand everything about the main category and what it does, you can dive into the medication classes. Example: Cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones, and tetracyclines are some medication classes that fall under the antibiotic umbrella. Some antibiotics cause photosensitivity, others cause oral contraceptives to be ineffective, etc. This is where you can dive into those core differences & retain specifics. Instead of remembering every individual medication, know the suffixes or prefixes! Example: Fluoroquinolones all end in the suffix “-floxacin”. Levofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, gemifloxacin. Some medications have outliers– know those too! main category Medication class Individual Drugs You don’t need toYou don’t need to memorize everymemorize every single medication ifsingle medication if you know the suffixesyou know the suffixes & prefixes!& prefixes!

Medication Class Match

Opioids Statins (also called HMG-COA Reductase Inhibitors) ACE Inhibitors Calcium Channel Blockers Warfarin Heparin Nitroglycerin (NTG) Corticosteroids Bronchodilators Cholinergic Blocking (anticholinergic) Bisphosphonates Loop Diuretics Benzodiazepines First-Generation Antipsychotics Second-Generation Antipsychotics SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) Osmotic Diuretics K+ Sparing Diuretics

Match the medication class to the correct description

A. Inhibits the formation of fibrin clots. Inhibits the conversion of fibrinogen to fibrin (inactivates factors needed for the clotting) B. Bone resorption inhibitors C. Anti-inflammatory effect (reduces the number of mast cells in the airway) D. Blocks movement of calcium E. Inhibits uptake of serotonin, used for depression F. Anti-anxiety drug which binds to receptors enhancing effect of GABA G. Binds to opioid receptors in the brain which causes an analgesic, sedative, & euphoric effect H. Inhibits reabsorption of water, encourages excretion of Na+ and Cl- I. Blocks aldosterone, excreting sodium and water but holding potassium in the body J. Inhibits dopamine from being released in brain (lessens positive symptoms of schizophrenia) K. Inhibits the enzyme HMG-CoA Reductase L. Acts on serotonin & dopamine, lessening positive and negative symptoms of schizophrenia M. Inhibits RAAS Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone-System N. Interferes with the production of vitamin K O. Vasodilator which decreases blood pressure, cardiac workload, & oxygen consumption P. Inhibit reabsorption of Na+ in the thick region of the Loop of Henle Q. Dilates (opens up) the bronchi R.

Used for induction of labor or to strengthen contractions of the uterus (used after labor to prevent hemorrhage, as well) J. Long-term treatment for mood stabilization in bipolar disorder K. Blocks monoamine oxidase, causing stimulation of the CNS L. Attack current bacterial infections in the body and prevent new growth M. Prevent rapid reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine, causing stabilization of neurotransmitters N. Inhibits phosphodiesterase, causing relaxation of smooth muscle O. Positive inotropic activity causing increased contractility (more forceful contractions), while lowering the heart rate
