Drugs Flashcards
What is amiloride
Potassium conserving drug that is given w loop or thiazide to prevent potassium lossless
What precipitates dig tox
Hyokalemia
Half life of a drug and clearence
Inversely proportional
However directly proportional to volume of dostribution
Alfentanil rapid affect
2:2 90% unionized fraction while fentanyl is 9%
Morphine active metabolite
Morphine 6 glucouronide, mainly renally excreted and becomes accumulated in renal failure
Fentanyl duration
30 mins due to redistribution however termination 3-4 hours
Dose response curve
Is a graph that shows how much drug is needed to create a response on a slope
Steeper the graph, the less drug that is required
Opoid receptor activation leads to
By increasing potassium conductance and decreasing calcium conductance the neuornal pain pathways become hyper polorized which decreases the release of neurotransmitters
Mu 1 receptor
Mediate suprasspinal (brain) anagesia and kappa anelgesia.
Also causes muscle rigidty
Mu2
Causes resp depression
Meperidine and how its diffirent from other opiates
Decreases contractiliry, inc hr and mydriasis. Acts like atropine anti chol
Opiates blunt co2 chemoreceptors in medulla causing whay
Increase tidal volume and dec resp to maintain ventilkation
Chest wall rigidty with opiate
Central acting can be inhibitted by muscle relaxant
Meperidine inhibits shivering via
Kappa receptors
Properties of opiates that are resistant to tolerance
Constipation is resistant to tolerance meaning everyone gets it
Also miosis is resistant
Maoi and meperidine
Can precipitate seretonin syndrom
Sufentanil vs fentanyl in infusions
Fentanyl redistributes from periphery to central compartment after infusion is stopped
Sufentanil contiues to go into periphery even when drip is stopped
Means context sensative halflife is much longer in fenanyl
Remifenil and dibucaine number
No affect. Remi is non spec esterases. Dibucaine interprets pseudocholinesterase
Benzodiazipine moa
Binds to gaba-a in cns and leads to inc binding of receptor to gaba molecule.
This then causes hyperpolorization and dec post synaptic excitability
Baclofen vs benzo teceptor
Baclofen gaba b, benzo gaba-a
How long after surgery must pt come back if not voided
12 hrs
Max dec of mac w high dose opiods
60%
Longest half life termination
Methadone
Chronic opiod affect
Dec in opiate receptors and glutimate receptors
Also leads to increased nmda receptors even tho glutumate binds to nmda
So ketamine a nmda antag is good for chronic pain patients
Benzo binding to gaba causes what
A change in postsynaptic! Chloride and changes the nernst potential
Nernst means the difference in membrane potential
Mu 2
Resp depression and constipation
Kappa
Sedation and miosis
Mu 1
Euphoria moosis and bradycardia
Local anesthetic + fentanyl
Decrease intraoperative nausea then just bupivicaine or morphine because they lead to a denser block from visceral pain to dec nv
Neseritide
Works via cgmp to cause vascular smooth muscle relaxation simolar to no
Dec map and pcwo but increases renal blood flow
Digoxin
Works via inhibiting na/k pump leading to increased intracellular calcium. It decreases chronotroph via dec conduction jn av node and purkinje fibrrs
Used in heartfailure and atrial fib/flutter
Nicotinic vs muscarinic
Nicotinic : stimulates autonomic ganglia and skeletal muscle
Muscarinic: activates end organ effector crlls in bronchial smooth muscle, salivary glands and sa node
Nicotinix is blocked my nmb
Muscarnic is blocked by anticholenrgics
Makes sense nicotnic is for muscl
Muscarinic is for heart sa node
Meperidine
Decreased contractility, increased he, increased mydriasis
Morphine vs fentanyl half life
Morphine is less protein bound and less lipid soluble so its half life is less
Prolonged use of opiods
Leads to down regulation and internalization kof opiod rexeltors leading to less membrane hyperpolorization.
Opiod receptors are g protien with secondary messaging mechanism and decoupling. In orher words there are fewer receptors
Most likely to be removed in lungs
Nor epi
Serotonin also removed
All volatile anesthics
Dec tv inc rr dev mv and cause airway irritation
Ketamine
Inhibits nmda
Induction agent with greatest myocardial depression
Thiopental greater then propofol most like to cause a dose dependent negative effect from dec of caclium influx
