Liver and kidney disease

28
Q

nonopioid analgesic RN intervention and client education

A

Do not exceed recommended dose
Have BP checked regularly

29
Q

centrally acting nonopioid prototype

A

tramadol (Ultram)

30
Q

centrally acting nonopioid therapeutic use

A

treat moderate to severe pain

31
Q

centrally acting nonopioid EPA

A

binds to select opioid receptors and blocks reuptake of norepinepherine and serotonin in the CNS

32
Q

centrally acting nonopioid administration

A

PO

33
Q

centrally acting nonopioid ADRs

A

sedation, dizziness and resp. Depression is rare

34
Q

centrally acting nonopioid contraindications and interactions

A

seizure disorders, resp depression

35
Q

centrally acting nonopioid RN intervention and client education

A

Take with food
Take med only when needed nd for short term
Do not take prior to driving or activities that require mental awareness

36
Q

opioid agonist prototype and other drug names

A

morphine
Other drugs: fentanyl, codeine, oxycodone, & methadone (Methadone-chemically like morphine but blocks the euphoric effects of opioids and reduces cravings. Used to treat Opioid Use Disorder (OUD))

37
Q

opioid agonist therapeutic use

A

Treat moderate to severe pain.

38
Q

opioid agonist EPA

A

Mimics the action of naturally occurring opioids, endorphins, and enkephalins. Does this by binding with the mu receptors at the opioid receptor sites. Stimulation of these receptors causes analgesia, sedation, euphoria, and respiratory depression.

39
Q

opioid agonist administration

A

PO, IM, IV, SC, rectally, or epidurally

40
Q

opioid agonist ADRs

A

Respiratory depression, lightheadedness, dizziness, constipation, and potential for abuse along with tolerance.

41
Q

opioid agonist contraindications and interactions

A

Resp depression
Pregnancy
Older adults, infants
Hepatic or kidney disease

42
Q

opioid agonist RN intervention and client education

A

Antidote: naloxone (Narcan)
Monitor resp status
Schedule II controlled substance
Take med only when needed and for short term
Do not take prior to driving or activities that require mental awareness
Change positions gradually
Encourage bowel movements

43
Q

opioid agonist-antagonist prototype

A

buprenorphine (Buprenex)

44
Q

opioid agonist-antagonist therapeutic use

A

analgesia for moderate to severe pain. Anesthesia adjunct. Also used to treat opioid use disorder (OUD)

45
Q

opioid agonist-antagonist EPA

A

MU receptor antagonist and kappa receptor agonist. Fewer mu-related adverse effects, such as resp. Depression, euphoria, and dependence. Produces milder analgesic effects

46
Q

opioid agonist-antagonist administration

A

PO, IM, IV, or intranasally

47
Q

opioid agonist-antagonist ADRs

A

respiratory depression (limited), nausea, constipation, increased cardiac workload

48
Q

opioid agonist-antagonist contraindications and interactions

A

Resp depression
Acute MI
Hepatic or kidney disease

49
Q

opioid agonist-antagonist RN intervention and client education

A

Antidote: naloxone (Narcan) may need repeated dose
Monitor resp status
Schedule IV controlled substance
Take med only when needed for short term
Do not take prior to driving or activities that require mental awareness
Change positions gradually

50
Q

opioid antagonist prototype

A

naloxone (Narcan)

51
Q

opioid antagonist therapeutic use

A

reversal of opioid effects, overdose

52
Q

opioid antagonist EPA

A

block opioid receptors, effectively reversing or antagonizing the effects of opioids

53
Q

opioid antagonist administration

A

IM, IV, SQ, and intranasally

54
Q

opioid antagonist ADRs

A

ventricular arrhythmias, increase in HR and RR, can cause withdrawal symptoms (HTN, vomiting, and tremors)

55
Q

opioid antagonist contraindications and interactions

A

Opioid dependence
Cardiac irritability

56
Q

opioid antagonist RN intervention and client education

A

Monitor VS
Be aware-drug can increase pain because it is reversing the opioid effects
Prepare to administer every 2-3 min until reversal of undesirable effects
Observe for nausea, vomiting, tachycardia, and diaphoressi (indications of opioid reversal)

57
Q

antigout/antihyperuricemic prototype and other drug names

A

allopurinol (Zyloprim)
Others: colchicine

58
Q

antigout therapeutic use

A

management of the signs and symptoms of gout to reduce uric acid concentration

59
Q

antigout EPA

A

inhibits the enzyme that is responsible for the conversion of the purines to uric acid, therefore reducing uric acid production

60
Q

antigout administration

A

PO or IV

61
Q

antigout ADRs

A

Gi disturbances (N/V/D), bone marrow depression, and agranulocytosis

62
Q

antigout contraindications and interactions

A

Interferes with warfarin
Bone marrow depression
Liver or kidney dysfunction

63
Q

antigout RN interactions and client education

A

Take after meals to ensure absorption
Ingest at least 3L/day of fluid
Report decreased urine output or cloudy urine, which could be signs of a uric acid stone formation
Low purine diet, avoid: beer, alcohol, meat, sardines, anchovies, scallops, asparagus, spinach, peas
