    What is the mode of action of Cefpodoxime proxetil?

    • A) Inhibits the protein synthesis

    • B) Inhibits the cell wall synthesis

    • C) Inhibits the DNA replication

    • D) All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. B) Inhibits the cell wall synthesis
    Explanation
    Cefpodoxime proxetil inhibits the cell wall synthesis. The cell wall is an essential component of bacteria that provides structural support and protects the cell from osmotic pressure. By inhibiting the synthesis of the cell wall, cefpodoxime proxetil weakens the bacteria, making it easier for the immune system to eliminate the infection. This mode of action is specific to bacteria and does not affect human cells, making cefpodoxime proxetil an effective antibiotic for treating bacterial infections.

    Rifakem modulates the gut immune signalling, hence it is useful in ………………..?

    • A) IBS D

    • B) HE

    • C) Infectious diarrhoea

    • D) None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. A) IBS D
    Explanation
    Rifakem modulates the gut immune signaling, which suggests that it can help regulate the immune response in the gut. This could be beneficial in the case of Irritable Bowel Syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D), as IBS-D is characterized by abnormal immune activation and inflammation in the gut. By modulating the immune signaling, Rifakem may help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms in individuals with IBS-D.

    • A) IBS D

    • B) HE

    • C) Infectious diarrhoea

    • D) None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. C) Infectious diarrhoea
    Explanation
    Rifakem is both bactericidal and bacteriostatic, meaning it can kill bacteria and inhibit their growth. This makes it useful in treating infectious diarrhea, which is caused by bacterial infections in the gastrointestinal tract. Rifakem can help eliminate the bacteria causing the infection and stop their growth, leading to relief from symptoms and resolution of the diarrhea. It is not useful in treating IBS-D (irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea) or HE (hepatic encephalopathy), which have different underlying causes.

    What is the meaning of refractory GERD?

    • A) GERD patient- Partial response or no response to PPI

    • B) GERD patient – full response to PPI therapy

    • C) Back to GERD condition

    • D) None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. A) GERD patient- Partial response or no response to PPI
    Explanation
    Refractory GERD refers to a condition where a patient with GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) shows only a partial response or no response at all to PPI (proton pump inhibitor) therapy. PPIs are commonly prescribed medications for treating GERD by reducing the production of stomach acid. However, in refractory GERD, the symptoms of acid reflux persist despite PPI treatment, indicating a lack of effectiveness. This may require alternative treatment approaches or further investigation to determine the underlying cause of the patient's persistent symptoms.

This dual mechanism of action helps to regulate the movement of the digestive system and alleviate symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and bloating. Therefore, the correct answer is c) Dopamine receptor antagonist & 5 HT 4 agonist.
