US Task Force 2016 recommends
Correct Answer
C. Low to moderate dose statin should be given to adults 40 -75 years old who do not have a history of CVD but have atleast one CV risk factor
Explanation
The US Task Force in 2016 recommended that adults between the ages of 40-75 who do not have a history of cardiovascular disease (CVD) but have at least one cardiovascular (CV) risk factor should be given a low to moderate dose of statin. This recommendation is based on the understanding that statins can help reduce the risk of developing CVD in this population. High dose statins are recommended for high-risk individuals, while combination treatment is suggested for managing lipid triad.
3.
Most of the high risk dyslipidemic Indian patients are on
Correct Answer
B.
Sub optimal dosage of statin
Explanation
The correct answer is "Sub optimal dosage of statin." This suggests that most high-risk dyslipidemic Indian patients are not receiving the recommended or optimal dosage of statin medication. This could be due to various reasons such as inadequate prescription by healthcare providers, patient non-compliance, or lack of awareness about the appropriate dosage for this specific population. It is important for healthcare professionals to ensure that patients are prescribed and taking the appropriate dosage of statin to effectively manage their dyslipidemia and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.
4.
Turbovas F is often needed to treat Lipid Triad we mean
Correct Answer
A.
Low HDL, High TG, High LDL
Explanation
The correct answer is "Low HDL, High TG, High LDL." This combination of lipid levels is often referred to as the lipid triad and is commonly seen in individuals with metabolic syndrome or insulin resistance. Low HDL (high-density lipoprotein) levels are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, while high TG (triglyceride) and high LDL (low-density lipoprotein) levels are also risk factors for heart disease. Therefore, Turbovas F, a medication used to treat dyslipidemia, would be needed to address these abnormal lipid levels.
5.

6.
Turbovas F USP
Correct Answer
A.
Improves Lipid Tiad (High LDL, High TG, Low HDL) 2. ADA recommends combination to be considered in patients with TG> 204 mg/dl & HDL <34 mg/dl
Explanation
The correct answer explains that Turbovas F USP improves lipid profile by reducing high levels of LDL cholesterol, high triglycerides (TG), and low levels of HDL cholesterol. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends considering the combination of Turbovas F in patients with TG levels greater than 204 mg/dl and HDL levels less than 34 mg/dl. This combination helps to prevent future cardiovascular events. Additionally, Turbovas F, being a non CYP3A4 metabolized statin, enhances the efficacy of Clopidogrel, unlike Atorvastatin, which is a CYP3A4 metabolized statin. Therefore, the correct answer includes both the improvement of lipid profile and the prevention of future events.

12.
Azilsartan offers additional Vasodilation due to?
Correct Answer
A. Action on ACE-2/ Ang (1-7) and mass receptor
Explanation
Azilsartan offers additional vasodilation due to its action on ACE-2/Ang (1-7) and mass receptor. ACE-2 is an enzyme that converts Angiotensin II (Ang II) into Angiotensin (1-7), which has vasodilatory effects. Azilsartan enhances the activity of ACE-2, leading to increased production of Ang (1-7). This, in turn, promotes vasodilation and helps to lower blood pressure. Additionally, Azilsartan may also have an effect on the mass receptor, further contributing to its vasodilatory properties.
13.
Azilsartan has got ____IC50 value than Olmesartan?
Correct Answer
B. Lower
Explanation
The given answer, "Lower," suggests that Azilsartan has a lower IC50 value than Olmesartan. This implies that Azilsartan is more potent or effective in inhibiting the target enzyme or receptor compared to Olmesartan. A lower IC50 value indicates a higher affinity or stronger binding of the drug to its target, resulting in a more significant biological effect at lower concentrations.
14.
Which is one of the most effective 2 drug combination to treat Hypertension according to Hurst's The Heart textbook?
Correct Answer
C. ARB & Diuretics
Explanation
According to Hurst's The Heart textbook, one of the most effective 2 drug combinations to treat Hypertension is ARB (Angiotensin Receptor Blockers) and Diuretics. This combination helps to lower blood pressure by blocking the effects of angiotensin and removing excess fluid and salt from the body. ARBs relax blood vessels, while diuretics increase urine production, both working together to reduce hypertension.
15.
Azilsartan is ____% more effective than Olmesartan for BP control
Correct Answer
A. 31%
Explanation
Azilsartan is 31% more effective than Olmesartan for blood pressure control. This means that Azilsartan has been shown to provide a greater reduction in blood pressure compared to Olmesartan, leading to better control of hypertension. It is important to note that this percentage represents the relative difference in effectiveness between the two medications, indicating that Azilsartan is the more favorable option for managing blood pressure.
16.
Is dose adjustment of Azilsartan is required in Renal impairment patients?
Correct Answer
B. No
Explanation
No, dose adjustment of Azilsartan is not required in renal impairment patients. Azilsartan is primarily eliminated through hepatic metabolism, and only a small fraction is excreted unchanged in the urine. Therefore, renal impairment does not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of Azilsartan, and no dose adjustment is necessary in these patients.
17.
Chlorthalidone belongs to which class of diuretics??
Correct Answer
D. Thiazide like diuretics
Explanation
Chlorthalidone belongs to the class of thiazide-like diuretics. Thiazide-like diuretics have similar mechanisms of action to thiazide diuretics, but they have a longer duration of action. They work by inhibiting sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubules of the kidneys, leading to increased excretion of sodium and water. This helps to reduce blood volume and lower blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is commonly used to treat hypertension and edema.
18.
The second prevalence study will focus on
Correct Answer
C. ZILARTA CT
Explanation
The correct answer is ZILARTA CT. This means that the second prevalence study will specifically focus on ZILARTA CT, which suggests that there may be different studies or investigations being conducted for different variations or forms of ZILARTA. The other options, ZILARTA, ZILARTA & ZILARTA CT both, and None of the above, are not the main focus of the second prevalence study.
19.
____________% of patients achieved BP control with Azilsartan and Chlorthalidone Fixed Dose combination
Correct Answer
A. 81%
Explanation
81% of patients achieved blood pressure control with the combination of Azilsartan and Chlorthalidone. This means that out of all the patients who took this fixed dose combination, 81% of them were able to successfully control their blood pressure. This indicates that the combination of Azilsartan and Chlorthalidone is effective in managing high blood pressure in a significant majority of patients.
20.
Gliclazide is basically
Correct Answer
A.
SU
Explanation
Gliclazide belongs to the class of drugs known as sulfonylureas (SU). These drugs are commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes by stimulating the pancreas to produce more insulin. Gliclazide works by increasing the release of insulin from the beta cells in the pancreas, which helps to lower blood sugar levels. Therefore, the correct answer is SU.
