N926 Pharmacology Final Exam Second Half Flashcards
MOA of Butorphanol
antagonism at mu receptor and antagonist at kappa receptor
MOA of nalbuphine
Antagonism at mu receptor
Nalbuphine is 1/4 antagonist of
morphine
Acetaminophen has both
analgesic and antipyretic properties
PK of Acetaminophen
metabolized in the liver
damage to liver results from N-acetyl-p-benzoquinonemine
liver failure by depleting gluthathione
Dose of Acetaminophen
325-600mg PO q6h
Total not to exceed 4000mg/24 hr
2000mg for chronic alcoholics
IV-1000mg q6h
Acetaminophen Anesthetic considerations
use in multimodal approach but not in liver patients
MOA of Ibuprofen
nonselective COX inhibitor
Dosing of Ibuprofen
200-800mg PO q4-6h
Anesthetic Considerations of Ibuprofen
use in multi-modal approach
Ketorolac is common
used for perioperatively
Dosing of Ketorolac
15mg IV q6h
Ketorolac must be avoided
in renally compromised patients
MOA of Celecoxib
Selective COX 2 inhibitor
Dosing of Celecoxib
400mg PO preoperatively
200mg BID x 5 days post op
Risks of Celecoxib
increased cardiovascular risk
When is Celecoxib used?
ERAS protocol
Part of multi-modal pain management; give in pre-op
MOA of Succinylcholine
Depolarizing neuromuscular blocked on nACHr
partial agonist
PK of Succinylcholine
low Vd d/t quaternary ammonium (polar molecule)
metabolized by PChE (succinylmonocholine and choline)
first order kinetics
PD of Succinylcholine
Neuro: increases ICP/ IOP
Cardiac: may cause bradycardia, tachycardia, ventricular dysrhythmias, and increased BP, junctional rhythm sinus arrest (action on muscarinic receptors)
Side Effects of Succinylcholine
increase K level by 0.5mg/dl
Risk for MH and don’t administer to children
increasing intragastic pressure (GERD pts)
Myalgias
masseter spasm
Dosing of Succinylcholine
1mg/kg of IBW
When can you intubate after administering Succinylcholine
60 seconds
Recover to 90% muscle strength of Succinylcholine
9-13 minutes
