Opiods Flashcards
(33 cards)
Morphine what happens with a more alkanyzed blood ph?
i.e hyperventilation
blood becomes more non-ionized
crosses BB
Morphine is affected by what clearance?
renal clearance
- not affected by hepatic clearance
Meperidine
what type of metabolism?
extensive hepatic metabolism

What are the metabolites of Morphine?
which one is active?

Fentanyl half-time with age?
special population: elderly
- decrease CYP and decrease hepatic blood flow
- may prolong effects
- decrease albumin reduction
Alfentanil characteristics?
Meperedine has a similar structure with
Atropine
Opioids with histamine release
Morphine
Meperedine
Receptor that causes
Euphoria
Mu 1 [responds to endorphins]
- Euphoria
- Low Abuse
- Miosis
- Bradycardia
Opiod receptor that causes
constipation
Mu2
- Analgesia [spinal]
- Depression of Vent
- Physical Dependence
- Constipation
Opioid receptor that causes sedation
Kappa (respond to dynorphins)
- dysphoria
- Sedation
- Low abuse
- Miosis
Opiod receptor that respond to Enkaphalins
Delta receptor responds to Enkaphalins
Where are the opiod receptors located?
- Brain
- Spinal cord [doral horn, interneurons]
- Periphery [sensory neurons, immune cells]
opiod effects in CV
no direct myocardial depression
bradycardia
Ventilation Opiod effects
Co2 response curve shift to the right
CBF: opiods
increase in PCo2 = increase in CBF
Chest wall rigidity on opioids?
its actually from laryngeal musculature contraction treated with paralysis
Opiods causes spasm on?
Biliary tract –> sphincter of Oddi
Naloxone or Glucagon
Chatacteristics of Tolerance and Dependence

Overdose: Manifestation and Treatment

Equianalgesic Potency
Meperedine
Morphine
Alfentanyl
Fentanyl
Remifentanyl
Sefentanyl

Charateristics of Morphine
- histamine release from mast cells
- dilation of cutaneous blood vessels
- decrease CMRO2
Characteristics of Meperedine
CAUTION WITH
- direct effects in contraction in large doses
– should not be used with SSRI, MAO
– seronin syndrome
Caution with: TCA
potentiation of ventilatory depression
