Q

Morphine

  1. contraindications
  2. used for
A
  1. sulfur hypersensitivity, bronchial asthma or resp problems
  2. management of pain
17
Q

Fentanyl use when

A
  1. manage persistent mod to severe chronic pain (continuous adminitsration) last resort
    (100 x more potent then morphine)
18
Q

Methadone used when

A
  1. abstinence sx management + tx opioid disorder + heroin disorder
    (not dosed high enough for pharmacologic response)
19
Q

Hydrocodone used for and is similar to what drug + usually combined with what

A
  1. mod to mod severe pain + antitussive (relieve cough)
  2. codeine
  3. usually combined with acetaminophen (hepatic problems if OD)
20
Q

Pentazocine MOA, used for, NOT used for, contraindications

A
  1. partial agonist
  2. when no other pain med is enough severe pain needing opioid + preoperative + with anesthesia
  3. not for tx addiction
  4. not take with benzodiazepines or other depressants , preg (neonatal opioid WD syndrome)
21
Q

Meperidine MOA, used for, RISK for what, interacts with

A
  1. agonist
  2. opioid needed pain
  3. misuse by anesthesiologists since they have access to it
  4. partial agonists + antagonists
22
Q

Codeine used for, special for, risk, important to know with the use of this

A
  1. antitussive (cough)**, mild pain, Diarrhea
  2. least opioid activity drug of all
  3. addiction, OD
  4. gradually taper to stop medication
23
Q

Loperamide used for, what can be given if OD, special thing about this one

A
  1. Diarrhea, OTC
  2. Naloxone
  3. taken my morphine addicts when they cant find it
24
Q

Buprenorphine MOA, used for, interacts with

A
  1. partial agonist
  2. opioid and narcotic pain reliever addiction TX, pain
  3. CYP3A4 inhibitor or inducer **
25
Q

Naloxone MOA, used for, risks

A
  1. opioid antagonist
  2. opioid overdose (inhibits receptors and takes over them) to reverse effects
  3. releases catacholamines –> lead to acute WD or pain (need to monitor)
26
Q

Naltrexone MOA, used for, risks

A
  1. opioid antagonist (mu receptors) (so even if pt takes opioid they get no effect, receptors are blocked)
  2. alcohol and opioid addiction or overdose = rehab drug
  3. pt after this can be way more sensitive to opioid in future (can die from what they thought was normal dose), can give WD and pain symptoms **
