MOA OF Medications
Test Your Knowledge: Mechanism of Action of Medications
Welcome to the MOA Quiz! This quiz will challenge your understanding of the mechanism of action (MOA) of various medications used in clinical practice. Each question will test your knowledge and help reinforce what you’ve learned in pharmacology.
Participate to:
- Enhance your understanding of pharmacology
- Identify key concepts in medication mechanisms
- Prepare for exams or certifications
MOA of Penicillin is
Inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis and binds to Penicillin-Binding-Protein
Acts on Nephron in kidneys, Increases water excretion, mobilisation of excess fluid from body and lowers blood pressure.
MOA of Frusemide
Acts on dopamine receptor, Stimulatenupper GI tract, Anti-Emetic actions by gastric emptying.
Acts on Nephron in kidneys, Increases water excretion, mobilisation of excess fluid from body and lowers blood pressure.
MOA of Ampicillin
Inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis and binds to Penicillin-Binding-Protein
Acts on brain and periphery which relieves allergies and lessens nausea and vomiting, it induces sedation too.
MOA of Metoclopramide
Acts on dopamine receptor, Stimulatenupper GI tract, Anti-Emetic actions by gastric emptying.
Binds to opiates receptor in CNS, inhibits peristalsis causing constipation
MOA of cloxacillin
Inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis and binds to Penicillin-Binding-Protein
A synthetic adrenocorticorsteroids which suppresses inflammation, adrenal function and immune response. Is a multiple steroids that cannot be stop abruptly. **All steroids meds cannot be stop abruptly same as HYDROCORTISONE
MOA of diazepam
Inhibit synthesis of bacterial cell wall and binds to the Penicillin-binding-protein
Acts on benzodiazepam receptor and cause systemic effects
MOA of amoxicillin
Inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis and binds to Penicillin-Binding-Protein and calvunic acid block the bacterial enzyme and prevent breakdown of amoxicillin
Secreted by BETA CELLS of pancreas and is a pricipal hormone for glucose use in normal metabolic process.
MOA of Promathezin
Acts on the ribosome and inhibits internal protein synthesis
Acts on brain and periphery which relieves allergies and lessens nausea and vomiting, it induces sedation too.
MOA of Tazocin
Inhibit synthesis of bacterial cell wall and binds to the Penicillin-binding-protein
Disrupt bacterial DNA in dividing and non dividing cells
MOA of Dexamathasone
Transmission of nerve impulses and facilitate contraction of smooth muscle, skeletal and cardiac muscle. Maintenance of renal function, acid base balance and carbohydrate metabolism
A synthetic adrenocorticorsteroids which suppresses inflammation, adrenal function and immune response. Is a multiple steroids that cannot be stop abruptly. **All steroids meds cannot be stop abruptly same as HYDROCORTISONE
MOA of Cefazolin
Disrupt bacterial DNA in dividing and non dividing cells
Inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis and binds to Penicillin-Binding-Protein
MOA of Soluble Insulin
Secreted by BETA CELLS of pancreas and is a pricipal hormone for glucose use in normal metabolic process.
Used for clotting as it blocks endogenous clotting mechanism which inhibits clotting by the action of anti-thrombin 3
MOA of Ceftriaxone
Interfere with bacterial cell wall synthesis
Inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis and binds to Penicillin-Binding-Protein
MOA of Heparin
Used for clotting as it blocks endogenous clotting mechanism which inhibits clotting by the action of anti-thrombin 3
Direct stimulatory effect that Helps to increase Blood pressure. Dopanergic low dose → Beta adrenergic Moderate dose → alpha adrenergic high dose
MOA of Metronidazole
Disrupt bacterial DNA in dividing and non dividing cells
Inhibit bacterial cell wall synthesis and binds to Penicillin-Binding-Protein
MOA of Dopamine
Used for clotting as it blocks endogenous clotting mechanism which inhibits clotting by the action of anti-thrombin 3
Direct stimulatory effect that Helps to increase Blood pressure. Dopanergic low dose → Beta adrenergic Moderate dose → alpha adrenergic high dose
MOA of Meropenam
Interfere with bacterial cell wall synthesis
Acts on the ribosome and inhibits internal protein synthesis
MOA of Morphine
Binds to opiates receptor in CNS, inhibits peristalsis causing constipation
Binds to steroids called ergosterol at fungal membrane (OIL BASED)
MOA of Amikacin
Acts on the ribosome and inhibits internal protein synthesis
Binds to steroids called ergosterol at fungal membrane (WATER BASED)
MOA of Ranitidine
Transmission of nerve impulses and facilitate contraction of smooth muscle, skeletal and cardiac muscle. Maintenance of renal function, acid base balance and carbohydrate metabolism
Inhibit histamine release and reduce gastric acid
MOA of Gentamicin
Acts on bacterial ribosomes and inhibits protein synthesis
Binds to bacterial cell wall inhibit synthesis, acts on different side of penicillins
MOA of Potassium Chloride
Binds to steroids called ergosterol at fungal membrane (OIL BASED)
Transmission of nerve impulses and facilitate contraction of smooth muscle, skeletal and cardiac muscle. Maintenance of renal function, acid base balance and carbohydrate metabolism
MOA of vancomycin
Interfere with bacterial cell wall synthesis
Binds to bacterial cell wall inhibit synthesis, acts on different side of penicillins
MOA of Amphotericin B Liposomal
Binds to steroids called ergosterol at fungal membrane (OIL BASED)
Inhibit histamine release and reduce gastric acid
MOA of mphotericin B Ambisome
Disrupt bacterial DNA in dividing and non dividing cells
Binds to steroids called ergosterol at fungal membrane (WATER BASED)
