Respiratory Deck Flashcards
Abuterol
-Short acting B2 adrenergic agonist
-stimulates bronchodilation
- caution with CVD and Dm pts
Salmeterol
-Long acting B2 Adrenergic agonist
-stimulates
-caution with CVD and DM patients
Ipratropium
-SABA
-Cholinergic antagonist
-blocks M3 receptors in the lungs–>broncodilation
Tiotropium
-LABA
-Cholinergic antagonist M3
-blocks M3 receptors in lungs –>bronchodilation
Teophyline
-phosphodiesterase inhibitor
-prevents cAMP–>bronchodilation
Fluticasone
-inhaled corticosteroids
-inhibits phospholipase to prevent arachidonic acid (proinflam)
-can lead to candidiasis
zileuton
-leukotriene
-inhibits the formation of 5-lipoxygenase
montelukast
-leukotriene modifier
-cysteinyl leukotriene-1 receptor antagonist
-treatment exercised induced bronchospasm
zafirlukast
-leukotriene modifier
-cysteinyl leukotriene-1 receptor antagonist
-treatment exercised induced bronchospasm
