CNS stimulant Used in treatment of depression and as analeptics.
I. Analeptics • Drugs enhance the response to sensory stimulation • Respiratory stimulant
3. Methylxanthines • Caffeine • Theophylline • Theobromine
II. Antidepressants • MAO inhibitors • TCAs • Miscellaneous
A. MAO Inhibitors • Elevate biogenic amine by inhibiting MAO. Nonhydrazine hydrazine Iproniazide Tranycypromine phenelzine
1. Iproniazide Hydrazine derivative • S.E
Non hydrazine derivatives • Less SE Tranylcypromine
B. Tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) • SAR • Side effects anticholinergic effects
1. Imipramine hydrochloride (tofranil) • Close relative to antipsychotic phenothiazines • SE: anticholinergic and sedative efffects
3. Amitriptyline hydrochloride 4. Nortriptyline
5. Doxepin hydrochloride • Oxacongener.
C. Miscellaneous • Effects on cardiovascular system. 1. Maprotiline hydrochloride
2.Trazodone hydrochloride • Similar to fluorobutyrophenone • 5HT • SE: sedation
3. Fluoxetine • Serotonin reuptake inhibitor
Local anesthesia • Characteristics for an ideal local anaesthetics - reversible blockade of sensory nerve fibers with a minimal effect on the motor nerve activation
Toxicity and side effects • Effects on excitable membranes such as in the heart, the neuromuscular junctions, and the CNS. With more effect on neuromuscular junctions and the CNS. • convulsions, followed by severe CNS depression, (particularly of the respiratory and cardiovascular centers). Due to inhibtion of inhibtory neurons as GABA system.
amide-type local anesthetics likely to produce CNS side effects than the ester- type compounds • SE depend on route and site of administration, the lipid solubility and metabolic stability of local anesthetics. • allergic reactions rare More with p-amino-benzoic ester-type • amide- type: antiarhythmic (parenterally and at a subanesthetic dosage) effect on Na channel.
SAR • Lipophilic portion
Intermediate chain • Short alkyl (1-3) carbons • Nature of chain determine stability and duration (amide more resistant) • Branching increase the duration
hydrophilic portion • Tertiary alkyl amine form water soluble
Classification • Ester type • Amide type
Ester type • procaine
Amide type • Lidocaine Mepvacaine
Metabolism • Ester type esterase interaction with anticholinesterase increase toxicity Antagonize the antibacterial activity of sulfonamide Amide type:
