1
Q

Iron Deficiency Anemia

A

Ferrous Sulfate (Fumarate - ↑ elemental Fe)

2
Q

Megaloblastic anemia, vitamin B12 deficiency

A

Cyanocobalamin

3
Q

Megaloblastic anemia, prevention of neural tube defects (spina bifida)

A

Folic Acid

4
Q

Anemia in CKD

A

EPO

5
Q

Neutropenia, agranulocytosis

A

Filgrastim

6
Q

Chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia

A

Oprelvekin

7
Q

Acute treatment of DVT, PE and AMI, PTT monitoring, SE: bleeding, thrombocytopenia

A

Heparin

8
Q

Low molecular weight heparin, less risk for thrombocytopenia, does not need monitoring

A

Enoxaparin

9
Q

Treatment of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia

A

Lepirudin

10
Q

Antidote to heparin-induced bleeding

A

Protamine Sulfate

11
Q

Chronic anti-coagulation, SE: bleeding, skin necrosis, many drug interactions

A

Warfarin

12
Q

Antidote to warfarin (immediate reversal)

A

Fresh Frozen Plasma (FFP)

13
Q

Antidote to warfarin (slow reversal)

A

Vitamin K

14
Q

Test for intrinsic pathway function

A

PTT

15
Q

Test for extrinsic pathway function

A

PT

16
Q

Why is an overlap between heparin and warfarin done?

A

warfarin’s effect requires elimination of preformed clotting factors (8-60h), bypass initial prothrombotic effect of warfarin (skin necrosis)

17
Q

Thrombolysis in AMI, ischemic CVD and PE, SE: bleeding

A

Alteplase (rtPA)

18
Q

Bacteria-derived thrombolytic, decreased effect on subsequent uses due to antibody formation

A

Streptokinase

19
Q

Antidote to thrombolytic overdose

A

Aminocaproic/Tranexamic Acid

20
