  PROTON PUMP INHIBITOR  Peptic ulcer occurs due to the imbalance between acid -pepsin secretion and mucosal defense factor  Proton pump inhibitor act by inhibiting the gastric acid secretion  Its a efficacious inhibitor omeprazole is a drug that's commonly use MECHANISM OF ACTION: The parietal cells of stomach secrete :H + with the help of enzyme H+K+ATPase present in the plasma membrane Omeprazole and other proton pump inhibitor are produrg get activated in the acidic environment of the stomach to sulfenamide which binds covalently with H+K+ATPase   The binding is irreversible Single dose can almost (95%)inhibit gastric secretion Acid secretion start only after new H+K+ATPase enzyme is synthesises . Ulcer heals rapidly even in resistant cases. PHARMACOKINETICS; Given as enteric coated granules to avoid degradation by acid in stomach Effect of 1 dose remains for 2 to 3 days Microsomal enzyme inhibitor Increases level of benzodiazep...

  PEPTIC ULCER  - Part 1  Peptic ulcer is result from imbalance between acid pepsin secretion and mucosal defense factor Stomach secrete 2.5 litre of gastric juice daily MECHANISM OF ACTION: Chief cell secrete pepsinogen Parietal  cell secrete   hydrochloric  acid and intrinsic factor Gastric acid secretion regulated by  Acetylcholine   - muscarinic  receptor Gastrin - g receptor Histamine- h2 receptor Acetylcholine and gastrin act on parietal  cell Act indirectly on enterochromaffin cells releasing  histamine Mucosa secretes mucus  which forms the protective layer ,bicarbonate and prostaglandin Prostaglandin  stimulate mucus and bicarbonate that leads to vasodilation  and thereby inhibit gastric  secretion  CLASSIFICATION : DRUG FOR PEPTIC ULCER : A) GASTRIC ACID SECRETION INHIBITOR : H2 antihistamine - CIMETIDINE,RANITIDINE Proton pump inhibitor - OMEPRAZOLE,LANSOPRAZOLE B) GASTRIC ACID...

 CORTICOSTEROID: PHARMACOLOGY  Corticosteroid are hormone produced in the cortex of the adrenal gland. CLASSIFICATION: A)  GLUCOCORTICOID: Short acting glucocorticoid:   CORTISOL,HYDROCORTISONE Intermediate acting glucocorticoid: PREDNISOLONE,METHYLPREDNISOLONE Long acting glucocorticoid: BETAMETHASONE,DEXAMETHASONE B ) MINERALOCORTICOID: ALDOSTERONE FLUDROCORTISONE STRUCTURE AND SYNTHESIS: Corticosteroid have cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene ring  They are synthesized in the adrenal cortex from cholesterol under the influence of ACTH. Everyday about 10 to 20 mg of hydrocortisone maximum in the early morning and 0.125mg of aldosterone are secreted in response to stress.  MECHANISM OF ACTION :  Steroid hormone enter inside the cell of target organ Hormone bind to specific receptor inside the cytoplasm Activation of steroid  receptor complex  Steroid receptor complex enter inside the nucleus Complex bind to specific site o...
