33
Q

2 meds to manage mild dyspepsia

A

antacids

PPI (omeprazole)

34
Q

education for pt taking low dose ASA for cardioprotective effect who also needs to take NSAIDs for pain/inflammation

A

ASA

1 hr later -> NSAID

35
Q

is renal insufficiency caused by NSAIDs reversible

A

yes

36
Q

all __,

along with __ cause fluid retention

and should be used cautiously in pt’s w. __

A

NSAIDs

celecoxib

CVD

37
Q

what is the ASA/NSAID triad

A

hypersensitivity to ASA/NSAIDs

chronic rhinosinusitis w. nasal polyps

bronchial asthma

38
Q

why are GC better for asthmatics

A

decrease LT AND PGs

39
Q

why are NSAIDs bad for asthmatics

A

decrease PGs

increase LTs

40
Q

3 indications for celecoxib (selective COX 2 inhibitor)

A

inflammation

acute pain

primary dysmenorrhea

41
Q

2 inflammatory conditions French pointed out for celecoxib

A

RA

ankylosing spondylitis

42
Q

benefits of celecoxib outweigh risks in pt’s who can not tolerate NSAIDs due to __,

but risks outweigh benefits in pt’s w. __

A

GI s.e

CVD

43
Q

5 pt pops who might benefit from celecoxib

A

age > 65 yo

anticoag use

prior GI bleed

active PUD

concurrent use of oral GC

44
Q

besides celecoxib, 2 other safe options for pt’s at high risk for GI s.e w. NSAIDs

A

NSAID PLUS PPI

NSAID PLUS misoprostol

45
Q

what class of drug is misoprostol

A

PG analog

46
Q

does celecoxib alter platelet fxn or increase bleeding risk

A

no! → does not inhibit COX 1

47
Q

celecoxib increases the risk of (2)

A

ischemic CVD

HF

48
Q

how does celecoxib increase risk for ischemic CVD and HF

A

blocks COX 2 →

elevates bp

decreases renal fxn

49
Q

black box warning for celecoxib

adverse CV thrombotic events (similar risk to NS NSAIDs)

hypersensitivity rxn dt sulfa moiety

50
Q

GI risk: higher w. inhibition of COX 1 or COX 2

A

higher w. COX 1

51
Q

GI risk is lowest w. __

and highest w. __

A

lowest: ibuprofen (followed by celecoxib)
highest: naproxen

52
Q

CV risk: higher w. inhibition of COX 1 or COX 2

A

equal!

53
Q

renal risk: higher w. inhibition of COX 1 or COX 2

A

equal!

no!

may have some use in OA

a small % of APAP is metabolized to __

A

hepatotoxic metabolite

62

renal fxn

63
Q

when you think elimination/metabolism of APAP, think phase

A

2

64
Q

t/f: APAP has few-no s.e when compared to NSAIDs

A

T!

bc it doesn’t work on peripheral COX 1 or COX 2

major concern w. APAP

at what dose is risk of hepatotoxicity increased w. APAP

A

1000mg

CYP2E1

GSH

69

be aware of APAP in __ products

A

opioid combo →

percocet

vicodin

70
Q

risk of APAP in opioid products
