Across
- 3. an anti cholinesterase used to treat myasthenia gravis, starting with 'P'
- 4. peripheral acting non NMJ muscle relaxant; ryanodine receptor antagonist; inhibits Ca2+ release from internal stores of muscle cells
- 5. belongs to the amino steroid class; quick onset and recovery, allergic reactions
- 7. Xanthine Oxidase Inhibitor; 1st line preventative treatment of hyperuricaemia
- 9. preferred when Suxamethonium is contraindicated
- 11. central acting non NMJ muscle relaxant; adrenergic a2 receptor agonist
- 12. first line treatment for RA; block adenosine uptake, inhibition of T cells / B cells / IL-1β binding
- 13. Antimetabolite; inhibits dihydroorotate dehydrogenase; for more severe cases of RA; Poorly tolerated compared to methotrexate; hepatotoxicity
Down
- 1. central acting non NMJ muscle relaxant; first line; GABAb receptor agonist
- 2. atracurium, cisatracurium, mivacurium- these drugs belong to the class; short- intermediate action; histamine release association of flushing, hypotension
- 3. belongs to the amino steroid class and has a long duration & sympathomimetic activity
- 6. Antimetabolite; Prodrug; metabolites 5-aminosalicylic acid and sulfapyridine; used for RA treatment
- 7. pancuronium, rocuronium belong to this class; not associated with histamine release
- 8. an anti cholinesterase used to treat myasthenia gravis starting with 'n'
- 10. Depolarising blocker; nAChR agonist; fast acting- ideal for short procedures
