This includes considering lack of fluids, and availability to swallow among other different issues. With this in mind appropriate preparation needs to be taken to avoid unexpected complications. Dosage plays another important role in effectiveness of medication, in fact can only be done by a professional trained and capable of giving the medication. Always give it as prescribed, remember that patient’s health…
Homework 4 1. A. Hcd19Tg is Human CD-19-Transgenic mice overexpressing CD19 which is a B-lymphocyte antigen present on all B cells. It is a transgenic model of human gene CD-19 introduced into the mice for research studying the effect of CD19 related to B-cell related immunological response B. CD1dloCD5+ is a rare phenotype of Regulatory B cells found in spleen of normal and autoimmune mice producing IL-10 and hence also called the B10 cells. As this phenotype is identifies to regulate T cell dependent inflammatory response, they are researched for role in myasthenia gravis and other neuro inflammatory diseases. C. Terbutaline is a B2 adrenergic receptor agonist causing vasodilation, smooth muscle relaxation and skeletal muscle contractions.…
Know One Drug Erin Wu I chose losartan. For your molecule: Note the primary indication, and a secondary indication (even if off label) The primary indication is hypertension. It is also used for diabetic neuropathy and hypertension with left ventricular hypertrophy.…
Patient Afib is a 58 year old, Caucasian, married male. The patient has been healthy most of his life with no significant health issues until the beginning of this year. One night, in April of 2016, patient Afib began to experience chest pain, shortness of breath, nausea, and vomiting prompting him to visit the emergency room. Subsequent tests revealed that patient Afib had symptomatic atrial fibrillation. Physicians in the ER stated that patient Afib probably had had atrial fibrillation for a while, but it had been exacerbated for an unknown reason.…
Fentanyl According to Susan Robertson, the drug fentanyl which is an opiate agonist, has been around since the 1960s and created by Dr. Paul Jansen. "The use of fentanyl as a pain reliever and anesthetic was quickly adopted in the medical setting. In the 1960s, the agent was introduced as an intravenous anesthetic under the brand name Sublimaze"(S.Robertson)pg.1. In the 90s fentanyl was turned into a patch which breaks down into the blood stream through a period of 72 hours.…
Take this drug by mouth once a day. Take it with or without food and a full glass of plain water. Side Effects This drug can cause cough, wooziness, sleepiness, headache loose stool,…
It is recommended that all patients received a ECG prior to treatment 30 days before and annually afterwards. All patients should follow the prescribed amount, if exceeded, they are at risk for an overdose. Although the medication has a stigma to it, it is important to note for the purpose of hospice or palliative care we use it for pain relief. That being said, it is an issue whether or…
This tablet has three different colors, which is associated with its dose. The strength of this tablet comes in five amounts, which are 80/12.5mg, 160/12.5mg, 160/25mg, 320/12.5mg, 320/25mg. This prescribed medication, contains 30 tablets in each package. One tablet is taken orally once a day with or without food. This medication should be taken at approximately the same time each day.…
A cholinergic crisis defines the condition of accumulating excess levels of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine in the neuromuscular junctions and synaptic gaps throughout the body and central nervous system. This results in overstimulation of many organs and glands including the parasympathetic nervous system. The main etiology is acetylcholinesterase inhibition, the enzyme that rapidly breaks down acetylcholine after it is released. Cholinergic crisis results from an overdose of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors causing profound weakness due to continuous depolarization of the postsynaptic membrane, which in turn results in a depolarizing type of neuromuscular blockade; cholinergic crisis may develop secondary to drug overdose, such as anticholinesterase…
As briefly mentioned before, atropine acts as an antagonist on acetylcholine because its chemical structure is similar to acetylcholine. Thus, structure is an important feature of the atropine molecule that is imperative to understanding its effects on the body. Although today’s chemists know the chemical structure of atropine, the conformational flexibility of the molecule is still poorly understood. A conformation is any three-dimensional arrangement of atoms within a molecule that results from the rotation about a single bond (24). For example, the picture of the atropine molecule in Figure 6 depicts the structure of how the atoms within the molecule are connected by chemical bonds to other atoms in the molecule.…
In this essay I will talk about diseases that affect the nervous and the muscular system. For the nervous I had pit Dementia. Dementia is a syndrome that affects the brain, it starts in the memory, patient with this syndrome star by experience forcedness they cannot reminder where they place there keys, or become unfamiliar with their own homes. And for the muscular system I had pit Myasthenia Gravis. Myasthenia Gravis also known as MG was discovered in 1972.…

ATryn is used in patients who have congenital antithrombin deficiency (inherited low levels of the protein antithrombin). Antithrombin is a glycoprotein produced by the liver and consists of 432 amino acids that inactivates several enzymes of the coagulation system. It is used when the patients are having surgery, to prevent problems due to the formation of blood clots in the vessels. In the body, antithrombin blocks thrombin, a substance that plays a central role in the process of blood clotting. Patients who have congenital antithrombin deficiency have low blood antithrombin levels, which may result in a reduced capacity of the blood to resist clotting.…
Etomidate, which is an imidazole derivative and an ester, is the most commonly used anesthetic induction agent and characterized by rapid onset, with minimal side effects on cardiovascular and respiratory functions, as well as minimum histamine release. These properties make it especially useful for cardiac-compromised patients. [7] However, it can suppress adrenal function through blockade of 11β-hydroxylase. This suppression persists for at least 24 hours, and some authors suggest that it may last up to 72 hours. This could harm patients with critical illness such as severe sepsis or septic shock.…
The hypotheses given were greatly supported during the experiment. Three of the four drugs; Lignocain, Hexamethonium, and Atropine, all showed a decline of inhibition of peristalsis. Nicardipine showed to have complete inhibition of peristalsis. It showed to have a 0 au drug amplitude. There were two standard pressures for this experiment.…
