20-25 gm is pot. Fatal
Taking more than 4 gm in 24 hours is toxic
What is the antidote to Tylenol OD

Acetadote/ Mucomyst
What is the MOA of ASA
Irreversibly inhibits COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes
Anti-platelet effect lasts for the life of the platelet (7 to 10 days)
Ketorolac can decrease opiod requirement by
25- 50 percent
What is the usage limit on ketorolac
No more than 5 days ( has a huge bleeding risk)
How does Ketorolac affect LnD
may adversely affect fetal circulation and inhibit uterine contractions
What NSAID has the lowest CV risk
Naproxen
Naproxen is FDA approved for what arthritic Dx
Gout
NSAID of use for gout attack
Indomethacin
Naproxen can also be used
What is the DOC for opthalmatic prep
Conjucntival inflammation and reduce pain after abrasions

What are the ADE and contra for Ibuprofen
ADE: GI irritation/bleeding (less frequent than with aspirin)
Low GI risk; moderate to high cardiovascular risk
Tinnitus
CONTRA: Angioedema
Aspirin sensitivity— bronchospasm
How does meloxicam interact with COX I and II
Preferentially inhibits COX-2 over COX-1 (at lower doses) looses selectivity at doses of 15mg/day
Clinical use of Meloxicam
OA and RA

HIGH CV risk
And has a sulf group ( allergies)
Which NSAID has the least CV events
Naproxen
What drugs NSAIDS are the best for GI Bleeding Rsk pts
Celecoxib or non selective NSAIDS with a PPI or misoprostol
What are the three ways Opiods work
- Inhibit the transmission of nociceptive input from the periphery to the spinal cord
- Activate descending inhibitory pathways that modulate transmission in the spinal cord
- Alter limbic system activity (pain perception
