histamine   chmcl bdy makes causes inflmmtn respnse; released during injry smth ms/vascular sys increase bld flow  
🗑
antihistamine   relieve effcts histamine on bdy organs/strctures  
🗑
action antihstamine   blck action of histamine by cmptng c H1 rcptr site so limit vasodilation/reduce edema; limit acetylcholine=dry effect n seditive  
🗑
uses of antihistamine   sar, perennial allergic rhinitis, perennial nonallergic rhinitis; snzing,stfnss, postnasal drip; to sleep  
🗑
interactions antihistmines   sedative effcts incrse c cns deprrnts; strngthn anticcholinergic of MAO/antdprssnts; ototoxic effects masked; decrease crtcstrds/hrmes  
🗑
examples antihistamines   brompheniramine, diphenhydramine, cetirizine, fexofenadine, lortadine  
🗑
other uses of anithistamines   hives, angioneurotic edema, serum sickness, reactions to plasma or blood  
🗑
anthistamine adverse rxn   htn, hypotension,tachycardia, blurred vision, drowsiness, excitation, sedation, tinnitus, anorexia, constipation, nausea,vomitting, painful urination, urticaria, nasal congestion  
🗑
drug interactions of antihistamine   sedative effect increases with cns depressents(hypnotics,seditives, tranqulizers, depressant analgesics,alcohol); strengthen effects of MAO adntricyclic depressants; ototoxic efffects masked; decrease effect corticosteriods and hormones  
🗑
antihistamine teaching   give with milk,meals to limit gi effects; orally so well absorbed; check for rebound effect; tolerance, stop using for 48 hr if test for allergies,  
🗑
alkylamines are   brompheniramine-Dimetapp; chlorpheniramine; dexchlorpheniramine-Polaramine  
🗑
ethanolamines   diphehydramine-Benadryl,Genahist,Diphenhist, Banophen  
🗑
antihistamines and elderly   check for dyskinesia,tremor,confusion,dizziness, extrapyramidal reactions  
🗑
piperidines-for sar/pnar   loratadine-Claritin, fexofenadine-Allegra, cetirizine-Zyrtec  
🗑
antitussives   relieve overactive/nonproductive coughing, narcotic acts centrally on cough center in brain and nonnarcotic acts peripherally by anesthetizing stretch receptors in resp tract n act localy to soothe irritatd areas in throught  
🗑
antitussives adverse rxn   constipation,drowsiness, dry mouth, nausea(make pt lay down), postural hypotension  
🗑
antitussive interactions   additive effect with CNS depressants and increase effects of aspirin  
🗑
narcotic antitussives exmples   codeine, hydrocodone-Hycodan  
🗑
nonnarcotic antitussives   benzonatate-tessalon perles, dextromethorphan-Vicks Formula 44,Robitussin,Benylim  
🗑
asthma prevention med action   cromolyn slows destruction sensitized mast cells-prevents release of phospholipase  
🗑
cromolyn/ nedocromil sodium   for managing bronchial asthma for prophylaxis, bronchospasm,chronic urticaria,ddermatitis, allergic rhinitis  
🗑
adverse rxn to cromolyn/nedorcromil   dizziness, HA,vertigo,rash,nausea,bad mouth taste,dysuria,bronchospasm,cough,nasal congestion,, anaphylaxis, swollen parotid glands  
🗑
drug interactions to cromolyn/nedorcromil   none reported  
🗑
cromolyn/nedorcromil implement   inhaled because ineffective orally, 2 inhalations X 4 daily; improvement within 4 weeks  
🗑
cromolyn/nedorcromil teach   cromolyn-clear airway of mucous before taking med,must be daily, ween off, rinse and gargle after dose, use brnchdltr first then med; nedorcromil-press 3 times b4 1st use & repeat if unused for 7 days; regular intervals daily  
🗑
bronchodilators   relax smooth muscles to open the bronchi for air passage; includes sympathomimetics and xanthines  
🗑
sympathomimetics   are betaadrenergic agents that dilate bronchi through beta adrenergic receptors aka adrenergic stimulants  
🗑
xanthines   directly relax smooth ms cells of bronchi, dilating/opening bronchi up  
🗑
sympathomimetics action   stimulate beta2 rcptrs & alphaadrenergic rcptrs which causes vasoconstriction response 2 all bdy- bld vessels of bronchial mucosa so theres less mucus/submucosal edema & b receptors to increase hr and hearts contractions  
🗑
sympathomimetics bronchodilators use   used for relief of bronchospasm during acute & chronic asthma/bronchitis and COPD/emphysema  
🗑
sympathomimetics bronchodilator adverse rxns   dysrhythmias,hypotension,tachycardia,anorexia,anxiety, HA,insomnia,nausea,pallor,polyuria,restlessness,vomiting,weakness,  
🗑
sympathomimetics effects are increased with   thyroid drugs,antidepressants(MAO/tricyclics),antihistamines,amphetamines  
🗑
causes dysrthythmias if sympathomimetics are taken with   digitalis or diuretics, or general anesthetics  
🗑
sympathomimetics effects blocked if   pt takes nonselective beta blockers & beta adrenergic blockers(propranolol)  
🗑
caution sympathomimetics with what pts   pt with cardio,endocrine, or convulsive disorders  
🗑
sympathomimetics implementation   parenterally,oral, oral inhalation(nebulizers/meter dosed inhalers MDI; protect from light,check bp/ pulse ;refractoriness  
🗑
sympathomimetics carefully monitor for   preventing tachycardia,decreased/increased bpm nausea, ha, cns symptoms  
🗑
xanthine derivatives action   bronchodilator relaxes smooth muscle cells in bronchi & blood vessels in lungs; kidneys produce diuresis; increase rate of breathing,metabolism release of epinephrine from adrenal medulla  
🗑
xanthin uses   treat bronchospasm in chronic bronchial asthma,bronchitis, emphysema, neonatal apnea; acute pulumonary edema  
🗑
xanthin adverse reactions   dsyrhythmias,flushing,hyptension,tachycardia,ha,insomnia,restlessness,diarrhea,epigastric pain, nausea,vomiting, rash  
🗑
xanthin od rxns   resp failure, shock, extreme thirst,delirum,hyperthermia--death
