Influenza/ Opthalmic

QuestionAnswer
types of influenza humans are susceptible to A and B
pts that qualify for influenza prophylaxis High risk & exposure within 2 weeks of vaccination High risk & vaccine contraindicated Severe immunosuppression (active cancer tx, uncontrolled HIV, etc.)
influenza prophylaxis must be initiated within 48 hrs of exposure
influenza prophylaxis options Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) Zanamivir (Relenza) Baloxavir marboxil (Xofluza) *1x dose*
preventative measure for Reye's Syndrome AVOID ASPIRIN in age ≤18 if viral illness suspected
sx management for influenza Analgesics/antipyretics -Acetaminophen -NSAIDs (ibuprofen) Decongestants Antihistamines Cough suppressants
pts who qualify for influenza tx Hospitalized Severe, complicated, or progressive High complication risk Age <2 or ≥65 Pregnancy through 2 weeks postpartum
pts who you should consider for influenza tx Anyone symptomatic If Sx onset <48 hrs Symptomatic outpatient ppl living with high risk population Symptomatic health care workers who take care of high risk patients
tx for (if sx start w/in 48 hrs) Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) Peramivir (Rapivab) Zanamivir (Relenza) Baloxavir marboxil (Xofluza)
pts that should receive oseltamivir for influenza tx PREGNANCY, hospitalized, outpatient w/ complications
neuraminidase inhibitors Oseltamivir, peramivir, zanamivir
neuraminidase inhibitor MOA inhibiting neuraminidase on viral surface prevents viral release & spread
Oseltamivir (tamiflu) PO ADEs GI, HA, pain, confusion, delirium, hallucinations
Peramivir (Rapivab) IV ADEs HTN, ↑BG, GI, neutropenia, ↑LFTs, ↑CPK, insomnia; rare: SJS/TENS
Zanamivir (Relenza) Inhaler ADEs sore throat, cough, nasal Sx, tonsil pain, bronchospasm
endonuclease inhibitor Baloxavir marboxil (Xofluza) PO
Baloxavir marboxil (Xofluza) PO MOA inhibiting endonuclease prevents viral gene transcription & replication
Baloxavir marboxil (Xofluza) PO ADE diarrhea, sinusitis
Baloxavir marboxil (Xofluza) PO pearls Binds with Ca, Fe, Mg, selenium, zinc -Not studied in CrCl <50
dosage of Oseltamivir (Tamiflu) PO 75 mg BID x 5 days (FYI: dose is renally adjusted)
influenza medications can be given to pts who are outpatient, with no complications oseltamivir, peramivir, zanamivir, or baloxavir marboxil
1st line tx for Dry Eyes Syndrome OTC Artificial tears drops daily or BID+ OTC Artificial tears gel/ointment-more severe DES
2nd line tx for Dry Eyes Syndrome Cyclosporine (Restasis) or Lifitegrast (Xiidra)
Con of OTC artificial gel/ ointment Likely to cause blurry vision Relief takes a little longer
Cyclosporine (Restasis) MOA Inhibits T cells= anti-inflammatory - ↑ tear production (when tear production is affected by inflammation)
Lifitegrast (Xiidra) MOA binds integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) = anti-inflammatory - ↑ tear production (when tear production is affected by inflammation)
Cyclosporine (Restasis) ADE eye burning, pain
Lifitegrast (Xiidra) ADE dysgeusia, irritation, ↓ visual acuity
Mucopurulent eye discharge + redness (rarely pruritis) bacterial conjunctivitis
Watery eye discharge + redness (rarely pruritis) viral conjunctivitis
Red eyes + itchy + cobble stone chemosis (rarely has discharge) allergic conjunctivitis
Heavy discharge+ Eye pain, ↓ vision +Rapid progression hyperacute bacterial conjunctivitis
1st line tx for bacterial conjunctivitis for a non-contact wearer erythromycin 0.5% OR polymyxin B/ trimethorpim (polytrim) q3-4 hrs while awake x 7-10 days
erythromycin ADE irritation, redness
Polymyxin B/ trimethoprim (Polytrim) ADE Rash, burning, stinging, edema, redness, lacrimation
1st line tx for bacterial conjunctivitis for a contact wearer Ofloxacin 1-2 drops q 2-4 hrs while awake x 2 days the 4x a day Ciprofloxacin 1-2 drops q2 x 2 days then q4 hr x 7-10 days
Ofloxacin ADE Blurred vision, pain, redness, lacrimation, stinging, swelling, dryness
ciprofloxacin ADE Eye crusting, pain, itch
hyperacute bacterial conjunctivitis tx Ceftriaxone (Rocephin) 1 gram IM +/- topical ABX
viral conjunctivitis tx self limiting 2-3 weeks stay away from others/ wash hands, cool compress PRN, artificial tears PRN
1st line tx Allergic conjunctivitis artificial tears/ lubricant
2nd line tx Allergic conjunctivitis Topical antihistamine Topical antihistamine + decongestant Topical mast cell stabilizer Topical NSAID
Blepharitis tx Wash lid margins with baby shampoo & warm compress daily
optionally following tx for blepharitis Erythromycin or bacitracin ointment to lid margins at bedtime Artificial tears if DES
red eyes + itchy + burning eyes/ eyelids + crusty eyelids/lashes blepharitis
1st line tx for open angle glaucoma Prostaglandin (best) or Beta blocker
2nd line tx for open angle glaucoma try which ever 1st line option you did not originally try OR Combo prostaglandin + beta blocker
Tx for closed angle glaucoma beta blocker, alpha-2 agonist, carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, or miotic PLUS Iridotomy
Prostaglandins The "Prost" s: Bimatoprost (Lumigan) Latanoprost (Xalatan) Latanoprostene bunod (Vyzulta) Tafluprost (Zioptan) Travoprost (Travatan Z)
Prostaglandins ADEs conjunctival hyperemia, HA, blurred vision, dry eyes, eye pain & stinging, tear production, *iris darkening, eyelash growth*
Pearls for prostaglandins ↑ aqueous humor outflow* ↓ IOP 25-33% Light blue/green; teal cap Given QHS
Miotics PEC: Pilocarpine (Isopto Carpine) Echothiophate iodide Carbachol (Miostat)
Miotics ADE eye pain & stinging, corneal granularity, tear production, retinal detachment, blurred vision, HA, lens opacity
Pearls for Miotics ↑ aqueous humor outflow ↓ IOP 20-25% Green cap
Rho kinase inhibitor Netarsudil (rhopressa)
Rho kinase inhibitor ADEs eye pain, conjunctival hyperemia & hemorrhage, corneal deposits, eyelid swelling, blurred vision, tear production
Pearls for Rho kinase inhibitor ↑ aqueous humor outflow ↓ IOP 10-20% White cap
Beta Blockers The "-olol"s Betaxolol (Betoptic S) Carteolol Levobunolol (Betagan) Timolol (Timoptic)
Beta Blockers ADE eye pain & stinging, conjunctivitis
Beta Blockers cautions HF, DM, myasthenia gravis, PVD, respiratory disease, hyperthyroidism
Beta Blockers key points ↓ aqueous humor production ↓ IOP 20-25% Yellow cap BID (daily if IOP controlled)
