Neurolept Anesthesia
An antipsychotic agent such as droperidol plus an opiate analgesic agent such as fentanyl or sufentanil. This latter agent is approximately eight to ten times more potent than fentanyl.

Mefenamic acid

Analgesic, anti‐inflammatory properties less  effective than aspirin 

Short half‐lives, should not be used for longer  than one week and never in pregnancy and in  children. 

Enhances oral anticoagulants

Used to treat pain, including menstrual pain. It decreases inflammation (swelling) and uterine contractions.

Miconazole

Miconazole is an  imidazole antifungal agent commonly used in topical sprays, creams and ointments applied to the  skin to cure fungal infections such as Athlete's foot and Jock itch. It may also be used internally to treat vaginal  yeast infection.

When used by a person taking the anticoagulant medication warfarin, Miconazole may cause an adverse reaction which can lead to excessive bleeding or bruising.

Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs)

e.g. fluoxetine, paroxetine, citalopram, and sertraline
- Most commonly used antidepressant category
- Less likely to cause anticholinergic side effects
- Relatively safest antidepressant group in overdose
- Selectively inhibits reuptake of serotonin(5-HT)

Mode of Action;
- Well absorbed when given orally
- Plasma half-lives of 18-24 h allowing once daily dosagedaily dosage
- Metabolised through CYP450 system and most SSRIs inhibit some CYP isoforms
- Therapeutic effect is delayed for 2-4 weeks

ADVERSE DRUG REACTIONS

- Insomnia, increased anxiety, irritability
- Decreased libido
- Erectile dysfunction, anorgasmia, and ejaculatory delay
- Bleeding disorders
- Withdrawal syndrome

CLASSICATION OF ANTICOAGULANT DRUGS

1. Direct Acting Anticoagulants

a) Calcium Chelators (sodium citrate, EDTA)

b) Heparin

2. Indirect Acting Anticoagulant Drugs

a) Warfarin

Gastric acid secretion inhibitors (antisecretory drugs):

 HCl is secreted by parietal cells of the gastric mucosa which contain receptors for acetylcholine (muscarinic receptors: MR), histamine (H2R), prostaglandins (PGR) and gastrin (GR) that stimulate the production, except PGs which inhibit gastric acid production.
 
Therefore, antagonists of acetylcholine, histamine and gastrin inhibit gastric acid secretion (antisecretory). On the other hand, inhibitors of PGs biosynthesis such as NSAIDs with reduce cytoprotective mechanisms and thus promote gastric mucosal erosion. Also, the last step in gastric acid secretion from parietal cells involve a pump called H+ -K+-ATPase (proton pump). Drugs that block this pump will inhibit gastric acid secretion. Antisecretory drugs include:

1. Anticholinergic agents such as pirenzepine, dicyclomine, atropine.
2. H2-receptors blocking agents such as Cimetidine, Ranitidine, Famotidine, Nizatidine (the pharmacology of these agents has been discussed previously).
3. Gastrin-receptor blockers such as proglumide.
4. Proton pump inhibitors such as omeprazole, lansoprazole.

Major clinical indications of antisecretory drugs:

• Prevention & treatment of peptic ulcer disease.
• Zollinger Ellison syndrome.
• Reflux esophagitis.
