🗑
show caution w/ antihypertensive ie beta blockers, Ca channel blockers, diuretics; do not take w/ Viagra. Can repeat if not relieved in 5 minutes, no alcohol  
🗑
show use lowest dose possible; can repeat in 5 minutes for a total of 3 doses, take prior chest pain causing activity; remove patch at night, no alcohol  
🗑
show not prescribed to children <8 (stains teeth), ↓ effects of BC, photosensitivity, hepatotoxicity  
🗑
antibiotic affecting proteins synthesis and monitoring for interaction-   show
🗑
show neuromuscular blockage (resp depression) MONITOR PEAKS AND TROUGHS  
🗑
MAOIs- discontinue 14 days before starting SSRI (fluoxetine, Prozac) reverse SSRI→MAOI 5 weeks   show
🗑
show antidote VIT K, injection deep in large muscle, rotate site  
🗑
antilipemic- monitor side effects, GI distress, gallbladder stones, myopathy (muscle pain, tenderness)→ check creatine kinase level   show
🗑
show keep locked, discard excess (witnessed by licensed HCP)  
🗑
Behavior disorders pt teaching- CNS stimulants, take in AM, w/o caffeine; monitor weight (exercise & healthy diet); serotonic syndrome 2-72º (confusion, agitation, anxiety, hallucination, hyperreflexia, incoordination, tremors, fever, diaphoresis)...   show
🗑
SSRIs ↑ bleeding, no NSAIDs or anticoagulants; SSRIs→TCA→MAOIs   show
🗑
show >1.5 may cause toxicity; <1.5 early sign of toxicity (GI upset); 1.5-2.5 toxicity; 1.5-2.0 advance signs of toxicity, all early + poor coordination and tremors; >2 severe toxicity (polyuria, tinnitus, blurred vision, hypotension; >2.5 hemodialysis, death  
🗑
show sit up for 30 mins after taking w/ full glass H2O, musculo/sketal pain-take mild analgesics if persists call HCP, blurred vision eye pain, Bisphosphonate-related oesteonecrosis- avoid dental work w/med, risk for hyperthyroidism w/Pagat's-monior PTH  
🗑
show  
🗑
show  
🗑

🗑
show  
🗑
Diagnosis of myasthenia gravis   show
🗑
show NEOSTIGMINE,PYRIDOSTIGMINE, EDROPHONIUM  
🗑
show counteracted by Atropine, used to Tx toxicity, neostigmine can cause respiratory depression, do not use with succinylcholine (increased neuromuscular blockade)  
🗑
depression client teaching: orthostatic hypotension, ways to minimize anticholinergic effects i.e. sugarless candy, gum, sips of water...   show
🗑
show rotate 1in btw injection sites, monitor glucose levels (do not rely on S&S), admin w/ 15g of carbs (4 oz OJ, 2 oz grape juice, 8 oz milk, glucose tablets); avoid alcohol, establish regular eating schedule, exercise  
🗑
show exactly what happened, no personal insight/justification just event, reaction, site, ect  
🗑
eye disorders- nonselective beta blocker (beta 1 and beta2) used to decrease intraocular pressure (IOP) by decreasing aqueous humor production, may cause conjunctivitis, blurred vision, phototobia, dry eyes REPORT to HCP   show
🗑
older adults >65 years, decreased GI function (lower stomach acidity, slower GI motility, gastric emptying, decreased systemic blood flow), impaired memory, vision & hearing changes, decreased motility/dexterity, reduced financial resources…   show
🗑
meds affecting BP; calcium channel blocker nifedipine (Adalat, Procardia) acts on arterioles; verapamil (Calan); diltiazem (Cardizem) MOA blocks calcium channels-leads to vasodilation of arteries/arterioles (veins not impacted)…   show
🗑
show VERAPAMIL CAN INCREASE DIGOXIN (LANOXIN) LEVELS=TOXICITY DIG THERAPEUTIC LEVELS 0.5-2 mg/mL
