Definition
Protease inhibitors
Term
what class does efavirenz and nevirapine fall into
Definition
NNRTI
Term
what inhibits uncoating of influenze A and is 100% cross-resistant to rimantadine
Definition
Amantadine
Term
what group of HIV drugs are inhitors of transcription and can cause flu like symptoms and depression
Definition
IFN
Term
what is a drug that can be used to treat Hep B and C
Definition
IFN alpha
Term
what are the endings that are associated with HIV drugs that inhibit RNA/DNA replication
Definition
-vir,-virin, -dine, and -bine
Term
what is the prodrug of penciclovir that is used to treat oral herpes
Definition
famciclovir
Term
nonnucleoside; directly inhibits DNA Pol by preventing cleavagge of pyrophosphate from nucleoside triphosphate. Used with ganciclovir to treat CMV retinitis. Can produce significant nephrotoxicity.
Definition
Foscarnet (Foscavir)
Term
cytidine analog converted by host cellular enzymes to active diphosphate anabolite; only IV aministration, treats CMV, dose dependent nephrotoxicity, administered with probenecid
Definition
cidofovir
Term
Lamivudine (epivir)
Definition
used to treat HBV, phosphorylated to active triphosphate form
Term
___ is a guanosine analog that can be used against influenze and RSV (in children); toxicities are hematologic following PO and teratogenic potential
Definition
ribavirin (Virazole)
Term
what drug is used to treat CMV and works through antisense mechanism
Definition
fomivirsen
Term
what is a nucleoside analog of adenosine activated by cellular kinases that is used to topically to treat HSV keratitis, keratoconjunctivitis
Definition
vidarabine
Term
what are trifluridine and idoxuridine used for
Definition
two opthalmic drugs used topically to treat HSV keratitis; both act as thymidine analog to block viral DNA replication
Term
what drug used to treat CMV in immunocompromised patients is a guanosine analog, poorly absorbed, and causes bone marrow toxicity
Definition
ganciclovir
Term
emtricitabine
Definition
treat HIV and HBV; cross resistance with lamivudine, nucleoside analog
Term
used to treat chronic HBV, effective against lamivudine (3TC) resistant strains, cuases nephrotoxicity
Definition
adeofovir dipivoxil (Hepsera)
Term
necleoside analog used to treat chronic HBV; less effective against lamivudine resistant HBV
Definition
entecavir
Term

zanamavir and oseltamivir are used in combo to treat :

A: Influenza A only

B: Influenza A and B

C: neither

Definition

B: influenza A and B

Term
What is Raltegravir used for
Definition
HIV inegrase inhibition
Term
T or F Trifluridine, cidofovir, and foscarnet require viral thymidine kinase to phosphorylate them
Definition
False the only require host enzymes
Term
T or F Acyclovir is primarily used to treat patients with ebstein-Barr virus
Definition
False- primarily used to treat herpes
Term
T or F Acyclovir is primarily used to treat patients with ebstein-Barr virus
Definition
False- primarily used to treat herpes
Term

Definition
CMV- cytomegalo virus
Term
lactic acidosis, steatoisis, myositis, myopathy, hepatomegaly, mitochondrial toxicity, and lipodystorophy are characteristic adverse affects of which class?
Definition
NRTI's
Term
T or F NNRTIs compete with nucleoside triphosphate and require phosphorylation to be active?
Definition
False - they do not require phosphorylation to be active and d not compete
Term
rash, drug interactions, and CNS involvement (hallucinations, abnormal thinking, confusion, etc) are common adverse events with NRTIs or NNRTIs
Definition
NNRTIs
Term
How does raltegravir inhibit HIV
Definition
It blocks HIV inegration into host DNA
Term
T or F protease inhibitors are stimulators of the CYP450
Definition
Flase they are inhibitors
