CUSHING SYNDROME PRESENTED BY: IMPERIAL WHAT IS CUSHING'S SYNDROME? Cushing syndrome happens when the body has too much of the hormone cortisol for a long time. This can result from the body making too much cortisol, or from taking medicinces called glucocorticoids, which affect the body the same way as cortisol. - also called as Hypercortisolism CAUSES RISK FACTORS Excessive production of cortisol (stress Age (25 to 50 yo) hormone) in thebody Gender (70% female, 30% male) Prolonged use of Glucocorticoids (e.g. People who take cortisol medication Prednisone, Dexamethasone).

ADDISON’S DISEASE PRESENTED BY: JAVIER, DASHA LEI M. Q3A INTRODUCTION Addison’s Disease is also called ADRENAL INSUFFICIENCY. A rare chronic condition in which adrenal glands don’t produce enough of the hormones cortisol and aldosterone Caused by an Autoimmune attack Addison’s disease can affect people 30 to 50 years old TYPES 1.) Primary Adrenal 2.) Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency - Occurs Insufficiency - When the pituitary gland doesn’t make when the adrenal glands enough of the hormone ACTH are damaged. (Adrenocorticotropin). 3.) Tertiary Adrenal Insufficiency - When the hypothalamus doesn’t make enough corticotropin-releasing hormone.

CEPHALOSPORINS CEPHALOSPORINS are a large group of antibiotics derived from the mold Acremonium (previously called Cephalosporium). They bind to and block the activity of enzymes responsible for making peptidoglycan, an important component of the bacterial cell wall. Broad spectrum and more resistant to beta lactamase inactivation than penicillins. Structure: Consists of a six-membered dihydrothiazine ring fused to a beta lactam ring; called 7-ACA (Amino Cephalosporanic Acid) Mechanism of action: Act by interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis. They bind to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), essential enzymes in the formation of the bacterial cell wall, inhibiting peptidoglycan crosslinking. 1ST GENERATION CEPHALOSPORINS More effective against gram-positive bacteria than on gram negative bacteria Excellent gram-positive and modest gram negative activity Alternatives for skin and soft-tissue infections, as well as for streptococcal pharyngitis. 1ST GENERATION CEPHALOSPORINS Route of Drug Name Brand Name(s) Spectrum of Activity Key Clinical Uses Administration Effective against Gram- positive cocci (Staphylococcus, Skin and soft tissue infections, Cephalexin Keflex, Keftab Oral Streptococcus); limited Gram- uncomplicated UTIs, respiratory negative coverage (E. coli, tract infections Klebsiella) Similar to cephalexin; good Surgical prophylaxis, skin activity against Gram-positive Cefazolin Ancef, Kefzol Intravenous (IV) infections, endocarditis cocci and some Gram-negative prevention in specific procedures bacilli Similar to cephalexin; Gram- Skin infections, respiratory Cefadroxil Duricef Oral positive cocci and limited infections, UTIs Gram-negative organisms SPECTRUM S - Staphylococcus/ Streptococcus P - Proteus EC - E.
