Question | Answer |
Dextose 50% | Increases blood glucose levels |
Oral Glucose | Increases blood glucose level |
Syrup of Ipecac | Induce Vomiting of Unabsorbed ingested Poions |
Epinephrine (1 :10,000) | Alpha effects produce peripheral vasoconstriction Beta1 effects:Increases heart rate and Improves force of ventricular contractions. Beta 2 effects produce bronchodilation |
Aminophylline | Brochodilation, decreased mucus secretion |
Ketorolac | Anti-inflammatory, pain reliever |
Albuterol | Bronchodilation (beta-two adrenergic) |
Lidocaine | Suppresses ventricular ectopy Blocks conduction of pain impulses |
Heparin | Anticoagulant |
Verapamil | Calcium Channel Blocker |
Morphine | Alleviates pain Decreases peripheral vascular resistance - vasodilator Decreases cardiac workload and oxygen demand on the heart |
Calcium Chloride | Balances hyperkalemia Increases myocardial contractile force and ventricular automaticity Aids in the re-entry of calcium into muscle when given for calcium channel blocker or magnesium sulfate toxicitydi |
Nitroglycerin | Coronary and systemic vasodilator - decreases peripheral vascular resistance and preload Decreases cardiac workload and oxygen demand on the heart |
Succinylcholine | short-acting depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent used as a muscle relaxant used during intubation |
Dobutamine | managing congestive heart failure when an increase in heart rate is not desired |
Propranolol | competitive antagonist which specifically competes with beta-adrenergic receptor stimulating agents for available beta-receptor sites |
Amyl Nitrite | rapidly acting vasodilator |
Coumadin | Anticoagulant |
Promethazine | Potent antiemetic |
Insulin | lowers the level of glucose in the blood |
Mag. Sulfate | Reverses magnesium deficiency Calcium-channel blocker Increases intracellular potassium Central nervous system depressant Relaxes smooth muscl |
Phenytoin | anticonvulsant |
Amiodarone | Alters the movement of sodium, potassium and calcium through normal channels. These actions: increase the refractory period of all cardiac tissues slow repolarization decrease automaticity Alpha and beta blocker |
Pancuronium | Nondepolarizing skeletal muscle relaxant |
Sodium Bicarbonate | Drives serum potassium back into the cell Enhances urinary excretion of tricyclic antidepressants Neutralizes acidosis |
Nalbuphine | narcotic pain reliever |
Dexamethasone | anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressant |
Glucagon | Converts stored glycogen to glucose, increasing blood glucose levels Improves cardiac contractility and increases heart rate |
Ipratropium | Bronchodilation Dries respiratory tract secretions |
Thiamine | Used to treat coma of unknown origin |
Magnesium Sulfate | Torsade’s, Hypomagnesaemia, seizure, eclampsia, laryngeal spasm |
Nitroprusside | Vasodilator |
Oxytocin | Relieves Postpartum Hemorrhage |
Chlordiazepoxide | Sedative, anxiety, acute alcohol withdrawn symptoms |
Aspirin | Blocks pain impulses in the CNS Dilates peripheral vessels Reduces platelet stickiness Reduces coronary artery vasoconstriction |
Midazolam | Central nervous system depressant that causes: Amnesia Sedation Muscle relaxation |
Etomidate | Suppresses central nervous system activity thereby inducing rapid unconsnylciousness |
Streptokinase | Fibrinolytic |
Mannitol | Osmotic diuretic, cerebral edema |
Activated Charcoal | Absorbant for acute ingested poison |
Isoproterenol | Produces bronchodilation by relaxing bronchial smooth muscle through beta-2 receptor stimulation; increases heart rate and myocardial contractility by stimulating cardiac beta-1 receptors, which increases cardiac output. |
Reteplase | thrombolytic drug that is used to dissolve blood clots |
Nitrous Oxide | Depresses the central nervous system |
Metaproterenol | bronchodilator |
Procainamide | used to treat irregular heartbeats and to slow an overactive heart |
Naloxone | Reverses narcotic effects |
Diazepam | Central nervous system depressant that causes: Amnesia Muscle relaxation Sedation |
Atropine | Reverses suspected vagal tone in bradycardias, asystole and PEA Blocks acetylcholine in organophosphate poisonings; Reverses effects of nerve agents |
Vasopressin | Antidiuretic hormone, |
Nifedipine | calcium channel blockers (CCBs) that are used to treat angina (heart pain), high blood pressure, and abnormal heart rhythms. |
Methylprednisone | steroid used to reduce inflammation |
Hydralazine | Antihypertensive |
Alteplase (TPAC) | Fibrinolytic |
Lorazepam | sedative , cardioversion |
Prochlorperazine | Antiemetic used to relieve sever nausea and acute vomiting |
Phenytoin | Anticovulsant to help control seizure, or convery dysrhythmia induced ny digitalis toxicity |
Dopamine | At low doses, increases perfusion to kidneys and abdominal organs At moderate doses, increases force and rate of ventricular contractions At high doses, peripheral vasoconstrictor |
Adenosine | Slows conduction through AV node thereby terminating reentrant tachycardia, Causes transient AV block , Vasodilation |
Furosemide | loop diuretic |
Norepinephrine | Potent peripheral vasoconstrictor Increases myocardial contractility |
Haloperidol | Antipsychotic |
Diphenydramine | Blocks histamine receptor sites in allergic reactions Reverses side effects of dystonic reactions caused by phenothiazines |
Flumazenil | benzodiazepine receptor antagonist |
Hydroxyzine | used for the short-term treatment of nervousness and tension that may occur with certain mental/mood disorders |
Phenobarbital | used as a sedative hypnotic and also as an anticonvulsant |
Meperidine | Narcotic analgesic used to relieve mode |
