Q

Crohn”s disease:

what is the patho?

3?

4?

A

5-HT3

H-1

A-CH

56
Q

what drug blocks serotonin receptors centrally in chemoreptor triggerzone and peripherally at the vagal nerve terminals in the intestine. this action reduces nausea and vomiting by preventing serotonin release in the small intestine and by blocking sihgnals to the CNS

A

Ondansetron

Dolastetron

Tropisetron

58
Q

do H-1 drugs inhibit the release of histamine 1?

Q

what drugs do not inhibit the release of histamine, but rather attach tot he recptors and prevent responses mediated by histamine such as secretion of hydrogen ions from parietal cells and CNS system stimulation

A

Histamine H-1

Q

facts:

alot of her studies stated that administering Zofran 30 in prior to conclusion of sx was better than before as package insert states

A

but the reason for early adminstration is to block the stimulus befre it occurs
