Q

What are some myths about NSAIDS?

A

Delayed healing in tissue and bone fracture, NON UNION.

Ok to use early in TX pain, (but recall pts rarely sees MD Day 1 I prefe Tylenol 24-48hr)

Q

If a Pt has PMH of GERD, PUD, what should be avoided and why?

A
  1. NSAIDs- inhibit COX 1-2, COX

2. DEC prostaglandins -GI protective, renal protective, platelet forming

17
Q

What RX only affect COX2?

A

Cox 2 inhibitor and Corticosteroids

18
Q

What is dose for Ibuprofen?

A

200-800mg TID/QID,
Max 3200mg/day (Advil, Motrin)
1-2hr onset

19
Q

What is dose for Naproxen?

A

250-500 BID/TID 1250 (Aleve)
MAX 1250mg
2-4hr onset

20
Q

What has the worst GI irritation

21
Q

What are COX 2 selects with less GIB?

A

-COXIB, -NAC.

22
Q

What COX 1 inhib is worse and not to give more than 5 days d/t GIB?

A

Ketoralac- strong but too much risk GIB
99% bound.
AVOID; 1. labor, peds 2. PUD 3. CABG, 4. Renal 5. minor pain 6. NSAIDS combo

23
Q

Avoid these Pt with Non selective d/t risk of GIB?

A 
>60 yrs
• History of GI problems 
• Current corticosteroid or anticoagulant use
• CV, DM
• Chronic use and high-dose NSAID
24
Q

What meds can be used with NSAIDs to MAYBE MINIMIZE dec GI?

A

proton pump inhibitors-omeprazole

Histamine 2 blockers- famotidine.

25
Q

Valorie should not use this d/t allergic reaction with her asthma?

26
Q

How long does it take for platelets to form again after toxicity of ASA?

A

7 days, ASA kills platelets.

Derosa ideal, take ASA every 5 dys, less GIB and less Stroke

27
Q

What are SE of ASA, which give reason to avoid ASA for pain control?

A

-**Painless GI bleeding
– Low doses- gout
– Reyes syndrome (Hepatic encephalopathy)- children
– Hyperthermia
– Hyperventilation
– Respiratory Alkalosis ** Don’t use with NON-selective NSAID- profen, proxen- compete binding on COX-platelets. USE APAP instead.
NOT seen in Celecoxib or Diclofenac.

28
Q

Which OTC med should be careful in high risk pt w/GI?

A

Excedrine- ASA+APAP+ Caffeine

29
Q

What is main reason for LOW DOSE ASA?

A

means 90% bound.
High dose less binding. Compete/Affect protein bound drugs warfarin, phenytoin.
Plasma levels inc. as dosage inc.

30
Q

What NSAID has higher SE treatment for gout, dose DEC as pain decreases?

A

Indomethacin

31
Q

**For Toradol (Ketorolac) who should have Lower Doses?

A
  1. > 65y
  2. Renal dfx
  3. Weight <50kg
32
Q

What are affects of prostaglandins?

A

Part of cell membrane

  1. protect renal
  2. platelet fx
  3. Protect gastric
  4. Inflammation
33
Q

What are benefits of COX2 inhibitors?

A
  1. Block inflammation
  2. Less SE than other NSAIDs
  3. Good for young healthy pop
34
Q

What and why were COX2s removed?

A
  1. INC. CVD CVA dz in wrong populations w/ comorbities.
  2. Steven Johnson Syndrome
  3. Sufa drug
  4. ASA could off set CV risk, but diminishes GI bleed protection w COXibs
35
Q

What is very effective in treating metatastic bone pain?

A

NSAID + OPiate.

  1. Rare
  2. APAP+ Opioid MC
  3. COMBOs- low dose, but INC effect
36
Q

Which drug is ideal if Pt has PUD?

A

COX 2 inhib Celecoxib/Celebrex or APAP

37
Q

Which NSAID is ideal for poor renal function?

38
Q

Which analgesic is ideal for post op?

A
  1. Opioid 2. NSAID, 3. APAP
39
Q

Which analgesics is ideal for CVD risk Pt?

A
  1. Naproxen safest NSAID

2. Celeocib least safe
