On this episode of the Top 200 Drugs podcast from Real Life Pharmacology, we cover Percocet, Epogen, quetiapine, glimepiride, and tirzepatide. These are drugs 166-170. Percocet is a combination analgesic. It contains acetaminophen and oxycodone. Pay attention to acetaminophen intake from all sources when patients are on this medication. Epogen (epoetin alfa) stimulates the production of red blood cells. This medication can be useful in treating anemia. Quetiapine (Seroquel) is an antipsychotic. It is often used in patients with hallucinations and delusions associated with Parkinson's disease because it has a lower potential to block dopamine receptors compared to other antipsychotics. Glimepiride is a sulfonylurea. This medication stimulates the release of insulin which can help lower blood sugars in diabetes. Tirzepatide (Mounjaro) is a combination GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist that can be used for weight loss and the treatment of diabetes.
