Q

what is the ulcer diet

A

a change in eating pattern may be beneficial - 5-6 small meals a day instead of 3 large - reduces fluctuations in gastric pH and facilitate recovery

27
Q

Cimetidine is also used in

A
GERD
Zollinger ellison syndrome
Heartburn
Acid indigestion
sour stomach
28
Q

antiandrogenic effects of Cimetidine

A

gynecomastia
reduced libido
impotence

29
Q

CNS effects of cimetidine

A

most likely in older adults who have renal or hepatic impairment

confusion
hallucinations
CNS depression or excitation

30
Q

cimetidine and resp effects

A

increased r/o pneumonia due to elevation of pH with antisecretory agent - bacterial colonization of stomach increases results in secondary increase in colonization of resp tract

31
Q

Cimetidine is a CYP

A

inhibitor

32
Q

drugs of concern with cemetidine

A

warfarin
phenytoin
theophylline
lidocaine

these drugs dosage should be reduced

33
Q

Antacids can _____ the absorption of cimetidine so they should be administered how

A

decrease

at least one hour apart

34
Q

what should pt report when taking H2 receptor antagonists

A
lethargy
somnolence
restlessness
confusion
hallucinations
35
Q

PPIs can increase risk for

A

fractures (decreased absorption of Calcium)
pneumonia
acid rebound
intestinal infection with C. Diff

36
Q

Omeprazole is approved for

A
short term therapy of 
duodenal ulcers
gastric ulcers
erosive esophagitis
GERD
long term therapy for 
hypersecretory conditions (Zollinger-Ellison syndrome)

prevent
stress ulcers in pt who are in ICU and have an additional risk factor such as multiple trauma, spinal cord injury, prolonged mechanical ventilation longer than 48 hours

37
Q

GERD is characterized by

A

heartburn

acid regurgitation

38
Q

characterized by breaks in them esophageal mucosa

A

erosive esophagitis

39
Q

characterized by mucosal breaks are absent

A

NERD (nonerosive reflux disease)

40
Q

Adverse effects of Omeprazole

A
Pneumonia 
Fractures (decrease absorption of Ca)
rebound acid hypersecretion
hypomag
diarrhea -  increase r/o c diff
41
Q

erosive GERD can lead to

A

esophageal adenocarcinoma

Barrett esophagus

42
Q

Pt with NERD, PPIS are taken

A

PRN

43
Q

Pt with erosive GERD, PPIS are taken

A

continuously until symptoms resolve

44
Q

by elevating pH, omeprazole and other PPIs can significantly reduce absorption of

A

HIV
atazanavir
delavirdine
nelfinavir

antifungal
ketoconazole
itraconazole

45
Q

omeprazole and other PPIs can reduce the adverse effects of

A

Plavix but it may also reduce beneficial effects

46
Q

what is the dilemma with clopidogrel (plavix)

A

if used alone, there is a significant risk for GI bleeding

if combined with a PPI - risk of GI bleeding is decreased but antiplatelet effects are decreased as well.

if pt has risk factors for GI bleeding (advanced age, use of NSAIDS or anticoagulants) - benefits outweigh risk

if lack risk factors for GI bleeding - avoid combining PPI with clopidogrel

47
Q

symptoms of hypomag

A

muscle cramps
palpitations
tremors

antacids space 30 min apart

51
Q

sucralfate may impede the absorption of what drugs

A
phenytoin
theophylline
digoxin
warfarin
fluoroquinolone abx (Ciprofloxacin)

administer at least 2 hours apart
