Enter the letter for the matching Answer
| A. Partial agonist at kappa and Mu recceptors.Like morphine analgesia.Less sedative than Stadol.Will reverse respiratory depression but not analgesia.Used for itching from morphineCan be given IV or IMDose: 5-10mgCan cause withdrB. Histamine release!Signs and symptoms: local redness, itching and hives. Decreased BP and Increased HR and flushing.Slow administration reduces this risk!C. 1st synthetic opioid.1/10 the potency of morphine.E 1/2 time: 3-5hrsDose: 0.5-1 mg/kg IM and 0.2-0.5 mg/kg IVStructure: Similar to atropine. Increases HR, Mydiasis (eyes dilate) and dry mouth.D. Bind to Mu receptors and produce limited responses (partial agonist) or no effect (competitive antagonist) But.....may also have agonist effects at other receptors.E. It undergoes biotransformation in the liver.Excreted by the kidneys (problem for pts. who have renal dx.)F. Nubain (nalbuphine)G. Also known as Narcan.Most frequently used.Great affinity for Mu receptors and is a competitive antagonist.Used to reverse unconciousness from narcotic overdose.Reverses respiratory depression: give in 20-40mcg increments. H. By activating opioid receptors on primary afferent neurons (antinociceptive activity).I. 7-10x more potent than fentanyl.Intra-op dose: 0.2-0.8 mcg/kgCT surgery: 10-30 mcg/kgE 1/2 time: 2.5-3.5 hoursJ. Discovered: Early 1970'sConstantly revised: intitially thought to be Mu, Kappa and Sigma, NOW Mu, Delta and Kappa which have many subtypes.Each receptor has a different function.Desired effects come mostly from action at Mu receptors.K. Dose-dependent ventilatory depression (decreased RR with compensatory increased TV)Not reliable at producing LOC: some sedation,but main effect is analgesia.May stimulate chemoreceptor trigger zone.Cause spasm of biliary smooth muscle.L. Mostly spinal analgesiaSome supraspinal analgesiaSome respiratory depressionPhysical dependenceM. Structurally related to meperidine.100x more potent than morphine.E 1/2 time: 3-6 hours.Doseages: Intra-op- 2-10 mcg/kg. CT surgery- 30-50 mcg/kg. Post-op-0.5-1.5 mcg/kg.Minimal CV depression: may decrease HR.1cc = 50 mcg.N. Execessive sympathetic stimulation!Arrythmias, Inc HR, Inc BP, N/V, and Pulmonary edema.O. The actions of endogenous ligands (endorphins, enkephalins and dynorphins) by binding to the opioid receptor which activates pain modulating systems.P. Demerol, Methadone, Fentanyl, Butorphanol, Pentazocine: Manufactured by synthesis rather than chemical modification of morphine.Q. Similar potency as fentanyl.Extremely rapid onset, clearance and recovery.E 1/2 time: 15-30 min.Dose: 1 mcg/kg IV over 60-90sec then 0.25-1mcg/kg or 0.05mcg/kg/min.R. Meperidine: Mechanism is unclear, but it is believed that meperidine stimulates the kappa receptors which decreases the shivering threshold. Is an agonist at alpha-2 receptors.S. AgonistsAgonist-antagonistsAntagonists (Competitive and Non-competitive)T. Also known as Trexan.Longer acting anatagonist given in PO form for addicts.May last up to 24 hoursPatients who take this may have a temporary resistance to narcotics. |
