Term
Drug-induced seizures
Definition
high risk of falls, hypoxia, brain damage; Difficult to detect and diagnose
Term
Drug-induced seizures; Majority are singular events that occurred within 24 hours after ingestion of toxic dose; OF these, chronic use predisposed this group to seizure
Definition
Tramadol
Term
Drug-induced seizures; often used to treat refractory status epilepticus (last line)--- experienced EEG changes during induction, etc
Definition
Propofol
Term
Drug-induced seizures; high incidence of seizures; pts with hyperventilation and hypocapnia predisposed
Definition
Sevoflurane
Term
Drug-induced seizures; usually culprits of all adverse drug events in the hospital
Definition
Antibiotics (Penicillins; Carbapenems; FLuoroquinolones)
Term
Renally dose adjusted because of seizure potential;
Definition
Fluoroquinolones
Term
Potential for causing seizures; usually happens in overdose setting
Definition
Antidepressants; especially Tri-cyclics; Bupropion 2% overall
Term
Highest incidence of seizures of all the older antipsychotics
Definition
Chlorpromazine
Term
Highest of atypical agents (10% risk of seizures in 4 year period)
Definition
Clozapine
Term
Drug-induced seizures; Stimulants
Definition
children at risk for ADHD inherently have higher risk for seizures; conflicting case series reports and studies
Term
Predisposing risk factors for seizures
Definition
History; alterered blood brain barrier (inflammation, infection), concomitant drug use, impaired elimination, elderly
Term
Seizure Management
Definition
stop/taper offending drug if possible; risk of second acute seizures (may need pharmacologic intervention); acute treatment (benzodiazepines to control acute seizure activity)
Term
Visual Disturbances: Drugs
Definition
Amiodarone, Chloroquine, Corticosteroids, Hydroxychlorquine, Lamotriene, Sildenafile, tadalafil, vardenafil
Term
Predisposing risk factors (visual changes)
Definition
genetic predisposition, drug dosage, cumulative dosage, underlying disease states, anatomic predisposition, concomitant drug use
Term
Underlying disease states causing visual changes
Definition
high myopia, diabetes, connective tissue disease disorders (RA)
Term
Prevention and Management (Visual Changes)
Definition
Avoiding agents, monitoring dosage, routine exams, patient education; management: discontinuation, symptomatic relief
Term
Drug-induced ototoxicity
Definition
Aminoglycosides, Diuretics, NSAIDS, salicylates, platinum-based chemotherapy, tetracyclines, vancomycin?
Term
formation of reactive oxygen species, loss of hair cells, loss of spiral ganglion
Definition
aminoglycosides
Term
changes in mitochondrial function, direct cell death, decreased number of hair cells
Definition
chemotherapeutic agents
Term
disruption of endocochlear fluid homeostasis, endolymph changes
Definition
diuretics
Term
decreased cochlear blood flow
Definition
quinine and salicylates
Term
activation of NMDA receptors
Definition
salicylates
Term
If you give this too quickly in too high of a dose (IV push) you drastically change the fluid levels in the ear, causing the patient temporary hearing loss
Definition
Furosemide
Term
Irreversible ototoxicity
Definition
aminoglycosides and chemotherapy
Term
COX inhibition causing bronchospasm
Definition
Aspirin
Term
Can exacerbate bronchospasms
Definition
beta blockers
Term
bradykinin production (induced cough)
Definition
ACE-inhibitor
Term
Pulmonary fibrosis drugs
Definition
Amiodarone,Bleomycin, Busulfan, Carmustine, Methotrexate, Mitomycin,
Term
Most widely reported non-cytotoxic drug to cause pulmonary fibrosis; unique molecular structure
Definition
Amiodarone
Term
Highly amphiphilic, inhibits lysosomal phospholipases, followed by breakdown of phospholipid containing macrophages
Definition
Amiodarone
Term
Strong oxidizer of iron and oxygen; generates fibrin in the alveolar spaces--- "BOOP"
Definition
Bleomycin
Term
Drug Induced heart failures
Definition
Glitazones, Anti-arrhythmic agents, Anthracyclines, NSAIDs, BBs, CCBs
Term
Fluid retention, increased vascular permeability thorugh VEGF, nitric oxide, protein kinase C?
Definition
Glitazones
Term
Highest incidence of drug-induced exacerbated HF
Definition
Anti-arrhythmic agents
Term
Dependent on mean cumulative dose; due to oxidative damage, formation of toxic oxidative free radicals
Definition
Anthracyclines
Term
Highest risk of HF with Glitazones
Definition
Older age, advanced DM, previous HF
Term
only anti-arrythmics that do not cause HF
Definition
amiodarone and dofetilide
Term
vasoconstriction of afferent arterioles; disruption of renal homeostasis; leading to sodium and water retention ---> HF
Definition
NSAIDs
Term
Reduce contractility through competitive antagonism with beta1 receptors; term therapy beneficial to heart failure pts, start low, go slow
Definition
Beta Blockers
Term
More likely to occur in pts with lower EF; more likely to occur in pts with HF and s/p MI; due to strong negative inotropy
Definition
Ca Channel blockers Diltizem, Nifedipine
Term
Anthracycline cardiomyopathy
Definition
may use coenzyme Q10, pretreatment with antihistamines, antiadrenergics, cromolyn sodium, n-acetylcysteine, dexrazoxane indicated in women with breast cancer....
Term
General treatment for acute HF exacerbations
Definition
Diuresis, Vasoactive medications in severe cases
Term
Drug becomes concentrated within urine/ureters allowing crystal formation
Definition
Nephrolithiasis
