Q1 · Aspirin Mechanism
NEET PGEasyExplanation
Aspirin irreversibly acetylates cyclooxygenase, blocking thromboxane A2 synthesis in platelets. Because platelets cannot synthesise new enzyme, the antiplatelet effect lasts the platelet's lifespan of 7 to 10 days.
Q2 · Acute Gout
NEET PGMediumExplanation
Colchicine relieves acute gout by inhibiting microtubule formation and neutrophil migration into the joint. Allopurinol and febuxostat lower urate for long-term prevention and can worsen an acute attack if started during one.
Q3 · Antihistamines
EasyExplanation
First-generation H1 antihistamines cross the blood-brain barrier and cause sedation and anticholinergic effects. Second-generation agents such as cetirizine, loratadine and fexofenadine are less sedating because they penetrate the CNS poorly.
Q4 · NSAIDs and Peptic Ulcer
HardExplanation
Gastric mucosal prostaglandins, produced via COX-1, promote mucus and bicarbonate secretion and mucosal blood flow. NSAIDs inhibit their synthesis, reducing protection and predisposing to ulcers. Misoprostol, a prostaglandin analogue, is protective.
Autacoids and NSAIDs sits within Pharmacology, which carries the same syllabus in both exams. This set runs to 4 questions, each tagged Easy, Medium or Hard, 1 of them at Hard, and 2 drawn from previous-year papers.
Answer first, then read the explanation even on the ones you got right — the reasoning is where Autacoids and NSAIDs marks are actually won, and it is what separates a recalled fact from a question you can solve in a new form. Once the Easy set feels comfortable, filter to Hard to find the gaps Pharmacology examiners keep returning to.
