Q

Azithromycin

A

oral macrolide
anti-inflammatory and antibiotic
doesnt kill psuedo but deccreas biofilm so other drugs can kill it

Q

Tobramycin

A

Aminoglycoside
nebulized
messes w/ 30s/50s and membrane
improves lung function reduces exacerbations b/c of psuedo

Q

Tobramycin ADEs

A
the aminoglycoside
discolors sputum
messes with taste
resp. - rales, wheezing, voice changing
ototoxicity; tinnitus, nephrotoxicity
eosinophilla (hematologic)
powder - cough and chest discomfort

Q

Dornase Alpha

A

rhDNAase - cleaves DNA in mucus thinning it
easier to clear and less risk infection
body can make antibody to it

16
Q

IBU

A

anti-inflammatory
anti-pyretic
analgesic

17
Q

IBU ADEs

A

headache and tinnitus
fluid retention and edema
epigastric pain and GI bleed

18
Q

Ivacaftor

A

for G551D mutation (improves gating abnormality)

CFTR made and transported to membrane

19
Q

Ivacaftor ADEs

A

headache, stomach ache, joint ache
nasopharyngitis
hyperglycemia and more transaminases

20
Q

Ivacaftor/Lumacaftor combo

A

ivacaftor for G551D (gating abnormality) CFTR made and transported to membrane
lumacaftor for fixing F508 folding issue
better lung function, less exacerbation, better BMI (inc)

21
Q

CF other treatments

A
Flu vaccine if older 6 months
Pneumococcal vaccine
Palivizumab for RSV antibody <2 yrs
Oxygen if hypoxia getting worse
Non Invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation if hypercapnia
fat soluble vitamins ADEK
22
Q

CF when to refer for lung transplant

A

FEV1 < 30% or getting bad fast
more exacerbations needing antibiotics
recurrent hemoptysis or penumothorax

23
Q

CF pancreatic enzyme supplement

A

85% will need at some point
PERT pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy
mainly lipase amylase protease microencapsulated
calculate dose with lipase

24
Q

CF pancreatic enzyme supplement

ADEs

A

mouth ulcers if prolonged contact so rinse mouth

too much will cause fibrosis in colon w/ strictures and inflammation limit lipase to 2500/meal 10k daily

25
proton pump inhibitors
omeprazole treats GERD that alot of CF kids get b/c less mucus to protect stomach blocks gastric cells from secreting H+
26
proton pump inhibitors ADEs
cough, backpain, weak | acid regurg, constipation, diarrhea
27
UCDA
ursodeoxycholic acid to dissolve gallstones and clear obstructed gallbladder/liver
28
UCDA ADEs
alopecia, leukopenia, thromcytopenia, | more serum creatinine
