the rest into inactive norcodeine
if children 12 years or younger receive this medication, they can experience side effects w/o analgesia dt immature enzymes in the liver
codeine
Dose: (adult)
30-60 mg q 4hrs, max 360 mg/day
Codeine
Pediatric dosing for codeine
0.5-1 mg/kg
max 60 mg/dose

- acute/chronic ashtma
- respiratory depression
- paralytic ileus
codeine works on what receptors
mu, kappa, delta
side effects include: N/V, brady, hypotension, respiratory depression, urinary retention, constipation, dizziness, miosis
synthetic 4-phenylpiperidine analogue of morphine and codeine
Tramadol
Tramadol is a racemic mixture of two enantiomers + & -
+ enanatiomer is centrally acting opioid agonist with moderate affinity to ____ receptor, weak affinity to ____ & ___, and opposes _____ reuptake
strong affinity: mu
weak: kappa and delta
opposes serotonin reuptake
Tramadol is a racemic mixture of two enantiomers + & -
- enantiomer inhibits _____ reuptake and stimulates _____ receptors
inh. norepinephrine reuptake
and stimulates alpha 2 receptors
Tramadol is metabolized by CYP450 into ______
o-desmethyltramadol
o-desmethyltramadol 2-4x more potent or weaker than Tramadol?
Potent
What is Tramadol’s potency compared to morphine?
1/5- 1/10s the potent to morphine
Tramadol’s onset PO
1-2 hrs

Tramadol is not associated with dependence, tolerance, or addiction
True
T/F:
Tramadol causes constipation

Oral dose of Morphine is about ___x higher than IM or IV
3
Morphine primarily acts on what receptors
Mu 1 and Mu 2
This drug’s primary pathway for metabolism is conjugation with glucuronic acid in hepatic and extrahepatic sites, especially the kidney
Morphine
Morphine gets metabolised into two substances
morphine-6-glucuronide
morphine-3-glucuronide
T/F:
morphine-3-glucuronide contributes to analgesia
F: morphine-3-glucuronide causes adverse effects such as neurotoxicity and hyperalgesia

oxycodone can be made alone or combined with 3 things and has many names
acetaminophen (Percocet), aspirin (Percodan), and ibuprofen (Combunox)
This drug is used to tx neuropathic pain syndrome and to treat acute/chronic pain
