1/10th as potent as morphine.
Pethidine
Less spasmodic action in smooth muscles
Pethidine
Pethidine has rapid and short duration of action
2-3 hours
Hass vagolytic effect and less histamine release safer for asthmatics
Pethidine
100x more potent than morphine
Fentanyl
Higly lipid soluble and fast acting
Fentanyl
Increases intracranial pressure
Fentanyl
Fentanyl is combine with what to produce neuroleptanalgesia
Droperidol
Synthetic centrally acting analgesia indicated to moderate and moderately severe pain
Tramadol
Used in the treatment of labor and cancer pain
Tramadol
Inhibits reuptake of serotonin and noreinephrine
Tramadol
Competitive against of all tyes of opioid receptors
Naloxone
Blocks u-receptors at much lower dosr
Naloxone
Naloxone is always injected at IV of
0.4 to 0.8 mg
