Non opioids Flashcards
Epidural and intrat used for pain management for cancer and non cancer pain and post op
Clonidine
Used as IV sedation short period for intubates/mechanically ventilated patients (less than 24 hrs)
Dexmedetomidine does not depress respiratory
If discontinued cause withdrawal effect
Clonidine and dexmedetomidine
Used as adjunct in labor anesthesia
Clonidine
Enhances and prolongs sensory block and motor blockage, anesthetic action and analgesia action of LA epidural
Synergism effect on LA epidural, prolongs duration
Clonidine
Dexmedetomidine
Reduce dosage liver AND kidney impairment
Dexmedetomidine
Side effects: Bradycardia, heart block, hypotension, nausea
Dexmedetomidine
Withdrawal causes rebound hypertension, agitation and sympathetic overactivity
Clonidine
Dexmedetomidine also causes withdrawal
Increases Nausea and vomiting
Neostigmine, Baclofen & Dexmedetomidine
Intrathecal Increases effects of LA, Opioids and other alfa 2 agonists drugs like clonidine
Neostigmine
Epidural does not affect motor blockage
Nesotigmine
Does not cause respiratory depression or pruritus alone or with opioids
Neostigmine
Alfa 2 receptors need to be inhibited or activated by agonist
Activated to cause inhibitory effect
Spinal used in pediatric lower abdominal & urological cases
Neostigmine
Nociceptive stimulation release which excitatory NT
Glutamate, asparate & neuropeptides
Substance P
Epidural administration must be administered preservative free
Ketamine, preservative causes neurotoxicity
May be used as a sole agent or with opioids in post op pain
Ketamine
Prolongs onset and duration of LA
Ketamine
Intrathecal reduces N/V
Versed
MOA of versed
Binds to GABA A receptor, increases GABA A ,allowing Cl influx
Also binds to d opioid receptors
2 meds risk of neurotoxicity
Ketamine & Versed
ketamine due to metabolite
Epidural & intrathecal antiemetic
Droperidol
Increases suicidal instincts
Ziconotide
Only nonopioid approved for FDA for neuropathic pain
Zicotidine Spinal
Reduces pruritus and post op N/V
Dropiderol
N type Calcium channel receptors
Zicotidine, decreases NE
Gabapentin and preabalin uses (3)
neuropathic pain, anticonvulsant (oral), fibromyalgia
Baclofen unique MOA
Activates GABA B receptors, increases K, causes hyperpolarization, also presynaptically inhibits Glutamate and Substance P
Uses for Baclofen
MS, Cerebral Palsy, spasticity, dystonia, low pain pain with root compression
Side effects of Baclofen
sedation, drowsiness, headache, nausea, weakness rhabdomyolysis and multiple organ faillure
One of the side effects is rhabdomyolyisis and multiple organ failure
Baclofen
COX Pathway leads to the production of what mediators?
Prostaglandyns, Prostacyclins and thromboxanes
What 2 reactions catalyzed COX
1: Cyclization of AA acid to PGG2 2: PGG2 reduction to PGH2
Meds contraindication for Ketotolac
Decreases protein binding, increases drug
Highly bound to plasma albumin
COX inhibitors, (Aspirin reduces plasma binding od Ketorolac and increases drug)
Does not have antiinflammatory effects
Acetaminophen
NSAIDS recommended for cardiovascular complications
Naproxen
Result on ductus arteriousus
Closes ductus arteriosus in neonates, Prostaglandins maintain open
Which COX inhibitors cause GI bleeding & GI bleeding?
COX 1 also Ibuprofen and
Respiratory effects
Risk of anaphylaxis: Nasal polyps, sllergic rhinitis & asthma
IV NSAID
Ketorolac
NSAID does not cross BBB
Ketorolac
Coxibs do not affect
Platelet inhibition
Responsible for pain COX 1, 2
COX 2
NSAID limited for 5 days due to renal toxicity (papillary necrosis) and GI ulceration
Ketorolac
Aspirin OD
acid/base imbalaces & RESPIRATION
Acetaminophen Overuse
Fulminant Renal Failure
Adverse effects of COX 1 inhibitors (graph)
Platelet dysfunction, Hypersensitivity & GI ulceration
Selective COX 2
Acetaminophen and Coxib
MOA of TCA
Block Na channels and increase antinociceptive noradrenergic an serotonergic projections descending from the brain to the spinal cord
Beneficial for post op resp depression or emesis
Ketorolac
Short management of pain (Less than 5 days ) causes renal toxicity and GI ulceration (increases Aspirin effects)
Ketorolac
Cox 2 selective inhibitor with little anti inflammatory effects
Acetaminophen
Has low therapeutic index, overdose can result in liver failure
Acetaminophen
COX 2 Selective Inhibitors that are antiinflammatories, analgesica and antipyretic actions as conventional NSAIDS but without antiplatelet action.
COXIBS, Celecoxib
DIffernece between COX 1 AND 2 Inhibitors
COX 1 GI upset and bleeeding more than CO@
COX 2 no antiplatelet action
COX 1 Hypersensitivity
Drug used primarily to treat trigeminal neuralgia
Antiarrthymic Drugs, treats chronic pain
MOA of Carbamazepine (antiarrthmic drug)
Blocks Na channels
Antidepressants are also used for
Chronic pain
MOA for antidepressants TCA manage of chronic pain
Blocks sodium channels
MOA for Venlafaxine and Duloxetine for management of chronic pain
Block NE and serotonin reuptake (Reuptake inhibitors)
