FINAL pain Flashcards
difference between acetaminophen and ASA
no gib no platelet issues to CV or respiratory symptoms with Tylenol but it is not an ant-iinflammatory
can be used in pts with aspirin hypersensitivity in children or pregnant women (category C)
what is the dosing of ibuprofen
3200mg max dose in day
MENSS
200-800mg TID/qid
NASSA- FASS
naproxen dosing
250-500mg BID/TID
NaLgas-LeZZ
nuisance se of NSAIDS
nausea and dyspepsia
most common sx of NSAID
mucosal lesions
less than max dose may provide analgesic effect with less GI irritation
also important to note is that daily NSAID use may increase CV risk factor (not NAPROXEN)
gastrointestinal protection for NSAIDS
misoprostol
NOT FOR PREGNANT WOMEN council ALLL PTs men too
can also use PPI or H2 with non-selective NSAID
MOA of misoprostol
synthetic PG EQ with antisecretory effect on gastric acid secretion and mucosal protective properties
what is the ASA sensitivity triad
20% of asthmatics are sensitive to ASA and NSAIDS
major med interactions with NSAIDS
warfarin –> increased bleeds
ACE: increased renal dz
loop or K sparing diuretics: decrease diuretic effect
lithium: increase lithium level s
additional signs of ASA toxicity include
hyperthermia
hyperventilation
respiratory alkalosis
interaction with ASA and protein binding drugs
plasma levels increase disproportionately as dosing increases
protein bound drugs will increase as dose increases . whattttttt
if pt is taking ASA for CV risk
wait at least two hours before taking another NSAID if you really need to
UNLESS it is celecoxib or diclofenac which don’t have interactions
NSAID most commonly used in the hospital
ketorolac
one of the only ones available inj
can decrease opiate dose whne used in conjunction
ALWAYS LIMIT TO 5 DAYS
Cox 1 is responsible for
renal and platelet function as well as protecting gastric mucosa
which cox 2 inhibitor is still on the market
celecoxib (celebrex)
less GI and slightly better at pain control
most pulled off the market because of increase risk of CV dz and SJS
don’t take with ASA or else it is useless
Vicoprofen
combination opiod NSAID
hydrocodone and ibuprofen
groups of opiates
diphenylheptane
methadone
phenylpipedrine
fentanyl, meperidine, sufentanil, alfentanil
phenanthrenes
morphine, codeine, hydrocodone
these two opiates can both be used for post op shivering
fentanyl and meperidine
both part of the phenypiperidine family
partial Mu agonists
tramadol
centrally acting synthetic opioid analgesic
binds to mu-opioid receptors and weak inhibition of NE and serotonin reuptake
very low bioavailability with this opioid
fentanyl
which is why we see it in a patch, suckers, IV,
This opioid is seen with a larger Vd in the elderly
meperidine
probably just shouldn’t use it
(post op for shivers but really just use meperidine)
opioids that are metabolized in the liver and should be avoided with hepatic dysfunction
codeine
meperidine
diacetylmorphine
