GUARANTEED PASS
1. short acting beta 2 agonists - ANS ✓Fast-acting treatment for asthma
-Albuterol, Levalbuterol (Xopenex) and Pirbuterol (Maxamir)
-Activate Beta receptors (remember the sympathetic stimulation which causes
dilation of the bronchi). Albuterol increases the sympathetic response.
2. oral corticosteroids - ANS ✓Fast-acting treatment for asthma
-prednisone, methylprednisolone
-help reduce inflammatory response by inhibiting inflammatory cell response
and chemical production.
3. long acting: Inhaled Corticosteroids - ANS ✓-inhibit inflammatory cell
and chemical
production that reduce inflammatory
process
Examples:
beclomethasone,
triamcinolone, Ciclesonide (Alvesco)
Fluticasone (Flovent HFA)
Mometasone (Asmanex Twist haler,
, Asmanex HFA)corticosteroid
4. Mast Cell Stabilizers - ANS ✓-prevent release of inflammatory chemicals
reduce inflammatory process by ↓
degranulation
-remember degranulation of mast cells
causes the inflammatory response by
release of histamine, prostaglandins,
leukotrienes, interleukin
EX:
Cromolyn
5. Leukotriene Modifiers - ANS ✓-leukotrienes are released from mast cell
degranulation and cause inflammation. This
drugs block leukotriene synthesis and/or
interaction reducing the inflammatory
process.
Ex:
Montelukast (Singular)
6. long acting beta 2 agonists (LABA) - ANS ✓-activate beta receptors
(primarily in
lung) bronchodilation through
↑ sympathetic response
Ex:
Salmeterol
