52
Q

53
Q

how does acute Salicylate toxicity present and what’s the treatment

A

combined anion gap metabolic acidosis and respiratory alkalosis.

salicylates increase the sensitivity of respiratory centers –> hyperventilation and resp alkalosis, while at the same time, metabolites of salicylates (lactic acid) cause metabolic acidosis.

on labs, this looks like high PH, low Co2, High PO2 but with an anion gap

treatment:

NaHCO3 (bicarb) :Sodium bicarbonate facilitates conversion to the lipophobic, ionized form of salicylate (Sal−), which traps much of the compound in the bloodstream and increases its urinary excretion.

Q

tx for Theophylline toxicity

A

Theophylline’s effects arise from antagonism of adenosine receptors. Theophylline toxicity should be considered in any patient presenting with seizures, agitation, tachyarrhythmias, hypotension, or persistent vomiting, particularly if there is hypokalemia and hyperglycemia

tx: based on presenting sx, but includes benzodiazapines for seizure, IV lactate ringer for hypotension, phenylephrine or norepinephrine for hypotension, then beta blockers if not working.

74
Q

tx for Hepatic encephalopathy

A

lactulose = disaccharide ==> acidification of gut lumen after breakdown by bacteria ==> trapping of ammonia

78
Q

reversal agent for dabigatran

A

Idarucizumab

79
Q

tx for heroin withdrawal

A

methadone

80
Q

cyanide toxicity associations and presentation

A

Cyanide poisoning is commonly seen in the setting of household fires and presents with symptoms such as headache, vomiting, flushing, bright red venules on fundoscopy, and acrid, almond-like odor on the breath.

Cyanide strongly binds to the iron within complex IV of the ETC, thus inhibiting electron transport and cellular respiration.

81
Q

ethylene glycol toxicity presentation

A

Ethylene glycol toxicity causes elevated serum osmolality, high anion gap metabolic acidosis, confusion, hematuria, and crystalluria.

82
Q

what drugs can cause drug induced myopathy

A

cholesterol lowering drugs, glucocorticoids, colchicine

83
Q

what kind of benzos are more prone to cuase dependence/toxicity

A

All benzodiazepines have a relatively high potential for causing dependency. Shorter-acting agents such as oxazepam and alprazolam, temazepam, and triazolam pose a great risk for toxicity and death. are particularly likely to cause dependency.

Diazepam is a benzodiazepine with a long half-life. It is used mainly in the treatment of status epilepticus and delirium tremens. It has the potential for dependency, but its long half-life reduces onset and severity of withdrawal symptoms.

84
Q

which drugs can cause acquired methemoglobinemia?

A

benzocaine (topical anesthetic) and dapsone

(less commonly nitrates/nitrites in drinking ground water)

pathophys: conversion of Fe2+ to Fe3+ (“increased heme iron oxididation”)

tell-tale sign: pts p/w cyanosis and low O2 sat not improved with supplemental oxygen

85
Q

presentation of lithium toxicity

A

Acute toxicity is usually characterized by gastrointestinal symptoms including nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
