25
when would you prescribe progestin only OC
thinking about thromboembolic events | thinking about if the patient is breastfeeding
26
what drugs am I going to use to halt labor
terbutaline indomethacin nifedipine magnesium sulfate
27
what type of drug is nifedipine
a CCB di - CCB so this means it only affects the smooth muscle
28
what type of drug is terbutaline
a beta 2 agonist = relaxes the uterus
29
what are the s/s of propofol infusion syndrome
can lead to metabolic acidosis, cardiac failure, renal failure, rhabdomyolysis fatal possibly!!!
30
what is rhabdomyolysis
muscle breakdown that leads to toxic protein in the blood
31
what is alosetron
a drug used for IBS in women
32
what drug is used for cerrvical ripening?
prostaglandin
33
what drugs are used for PP hemorrhage
piton hemabate = no asthma !!! methergine = no HTN ppl!!! cyctotec = rectally

serotonin antagonists substance P dopamine antagonists Benzes
45
what is meant by large Vd
the drug is distributed outside of the vasculature
46
what are the adverse effects of cephalosporins
they work similarly to pencilling so can have allergic rxn disulfiram like reaction --> avoid alcohol!!!!
47
how is Vd going to be impacted
think capillary systems polarity of molecules protein binding
48
what would a CYP450 drug do to drug metabolism
increase drug toxicity | think grapefruit juice
49
TI means
therapeutic index usually takes 4 half life to meet if no time ? bolus dose
50
what are examples of osmotic laxatives
softens and enlarges the feces any magnesium drug miralax lactulose

what do we know about ester
- higher risk of allergic rxn | -

long half life need to check their heart before administration helps with withdrawal from opioids
62
meperidine special considerations
releases toxic metabolite only can give for 48 hours need to monitor
63
what is different about codeine
need specific gene to metabolize into morphine | cough suppressant
64
when giving halperidol what do you need to monitor
a sedative first generation antipsychotic need to check QT
65
Parkinsons disease = what going on
dopamine
66
Two major AE of L- Dopa
orthostatic hypotension | dyskineaseas
67
