dental drug interaction with LA and Vasopressors Flashcards

1
Q

cimetidine

others within this category?

A

cimetidine is a H2 receptor blocker

clinically relevant interaction in that the metabolism of amide LA’s in the liver breakdown both cimetidine and the LA - thus higher levels of LA can be achieved as not metabolized

relative contraindication in a patien who is ASA 3 and has CHF.

other H2 receptor blockers
-ranitidine and famotidine

Q

sulfonamides

A

contraindication with the use of ester type LA –> as the LA may inhibit the bacteriostatic action of the sulfonamide

like procaine and tetracaine

Q

TCA’s

examples and implication with LA’s?

A

amitriptyline, doxepin, imipramine

  • may enhance the effects of vasoconstrictors resulting in hypertensive crisis as TCA’s may enhance cardiovascular actions of exogenously administered vasopressors
  • avoid use of levonordefrin or norepi in these patients

They block specific serotonin (SERT or 5-HTT) and norepinephrine transporters (NET). When affected, these transporters cannot play their part in the reuptake of neurotransmitters, which increases the concentration and ultimately has an effect on mood

epi can be administered but dose is suggested to be limited to 0.05mg

Q

use of non selective and selective beta blockers and LA

A

interaction between epi and these drugs has a higher chance of causing increases in the BP

  • likely to result in serious BP elevation with reflex bradycardia

Q

monoamine oxidase inhibitors mechanism and list

A

prescribed in the management of major depression, certain phobic-anxiety states, and OCD.
they can potentiate the actions of vasopressors used in dental local anesthetics by inhibiting the biodegradation by the enzyme monoamine oxidase at the presynaptic neuron level

MAOIs act by inhibiting the activity of monoamine oxidase, thus preventing the breakdown of monoamine neurotransmitters and thereby increasing their availability. There are two isoforms of monoamine oxidase, MAO-A and MAO-B

fluoxetine
selegiline
clorgline 
isocarboxazid 
phenelzine
tranylcpromine 
trimipramine

Q

vasoconstrictor with cocaine significance

MOA of cocaine and use with LA

A

never use epi with cocaine user or suspected within at least 24 hours.
significant stimulatory effects on CNS and CVS

cocaine stimulates norepi release and inhibits its reuptake in adrenergic nerve terminals, thus producing a state of catecholamine hypersensitivity
thus tachycardia and htn are observed following administration
CO and oxygen consumption increase which can result in ischemia and lethal dysrhythmias, angina pain, and MI

Q

vasoconstriction with adrenergic neuronal blocker
example and mechanism
example

A

sympathomimetic effects may be enhances so vasoconstrictors used cautiously
phenothiazines - psychotropic drugs usually prescribed for the management of serious psychotic disorders
chlorpromazine
promethazine

*they supress the vasoconstricting actions of epi - permitting its milder vasodilating actions to work unapposed and could result in postural hypotension

Q

isoproteronol

A

beta 1 and beta 2
beta 1
- increased HR and contractility

beta 2

  • vasodilation
  • decrease in SVR
  • decrease in diastolic pressure
17
Q

terbutaline

A

beta 2 agonist

asthma and COPD

18
Q

epinephrine affanity

A

dose dependent
at LOWER concentrations
beta > alpha
beta -1
- increased contractility, HR (ionotropic and choronitropic)
beta-2
like bronchodilation (opening airways) and some vasodilation

HIGHER doses

  • vasocontriction
  • increase SVR, HR
  • increase in systolic pressure with arteriolar constriction
19
Q

levo vs epi

TCA’s?

A

Levonordefrin is considered to be
roughly one-fifth as effective a vasoconstrictor as epinephrine and is therefore used in a 1:20,000
concentration. In this concentration, levonordefrin is considered to carry the same clinical risks as
1:100,000 epinephrine.

Levonordefrin-containing local anesthetics are not recommended due to a
greater tendency toward hypertension producing receptor potentiation than is seen with
epinephrine

overall less potent than epi in equal concentrations
