Q

Morphine: Metabolism

A
  • Glucoronic acid conjugation
    -Morphine -3 glucorinide (75-95%) INACTIVE
    
    -Morphine -6-glucoride: ACTIVE 

-Causes the late ventilatory depression

22
Q

Morphine: E 1/2 Time

A

1.5-3.5 hrs

23
Q

Morphine: Clinical Consideration

A
  • Caution with use in renal and elderly patients.

-Metabolites stick around longer in renal patients

  • Serum plasma concentrations increase with age.

-Women > men: analgesic potency and slower speed of offset

24
Q

Hydromorphone: Dose (induction)

Intra Op: 1-4 mg
**Give 0.5 mg intermittently!
HAVE TO REDOSE Q 4 HOURS

25
Q

A

5 - 15 mins.

26
Q

Hydromorphone: Duration

A

2 - 4 hours

27
Q

Hydromorphone: Metabolism

A

Has active metabolites!

28
Q

Hydromorphone: Special consideration (Hint: gives it an edge on morphine)

A

No histamine release

Remember this is an issue with Morphine that we dont like
