Drug of the Day???

I just thought that this would be a good idea to do here, since there are a lot of pharmacy students that read.

Every day (or week) someone posts a drug and its use, mechanism, indications, ect. I think it would help me learn a few more drugs and just implant them in my brain more. Try to skip the really basic ones, like Lasix and the like?

Anyone else agree?

How about you post a drug a day so YOU can learn.

UTP 200mg cap once daily

Indication: slow you down, makes you dull.
MOA: inhibits the Na channel, therefore it blocks firing in the brain
Black box warning: Do not give in pts who have an IQ less than 100
Adverse effects: drop in IQ, flatunence, diarrhea
Pregnancy cat: X
Diet Consideration: take with food to minimizer GI advere effects especially flatunence

Let me try one:

Dosage: one suppository per rectum at bedtime
Indication: hemroids, irritated rectum
MOA: unknown
Adverse effects: may leave stains in undergarments, systemic absorption can cause temporary loss of thought, pain on insertion
Drug interactions: Do not take with UTP

I'm not anal. Uridine triphosphate (UTP- clinical studies of P2Y2 agoints) exists. That's why I didn't think it was funny. 😉

Wow. I think you've all got it mixed up.... You're not supposed to submit meds that you're currently taking (chronically, I might add). I think its a great idea. I peruse these forums all the time looking for interesting facts on drugs; I don't see why you'd even make fun of someone for this.

I smell an oxymoron.

It's pretty obvious why they would do it...they are long overdue on getting their Seroquel and Depakote refilled
