incidence of toxicity (top 3)
|
analgesics
cleaning substances alcohols and hydrocarbons |
|
phases of acetaminophen toxicity
|
I- (30 in-4 hrs)- anorexia, nausea, vomitting, diaphoresis
II (24-48 hrs)- decreased sx but begin liver problems III (3-5 days)- hepatic damage,necrosis of zone 3 hepatocytes jaundice, coagulopathy, renal failure, encephalopathy, cardiomyopathy, death IV (4-days- 2 wks)- hepatic failure and death OR complete resolution and recovry |
|
tylenol and alcohol
|
cyp2E1
|
|
antidote for tylenol (acetaminophen)
|
mucomyst = NAC
|
|
aspirin metabolism
|
90% bound to protein
conjugated in liver by 5 pathways conjugates excreted in urine peak levels in 30 min, t1/2 = 2-4 hrs |
|
aspirin toxicity mechanisms (4)
|
uncoupling ox-phos -> inc anion gap
stim resp center -> resp alkylosis irritate GI tract dec prothrombin and platelet dysfunction |
|
tx aspirin toxicity
|
alkalinize urine with bicarb
GI decontamination activated charcoal |
|
ethanol metabolism
|
90% liver, 10% stomach
alcohol dehydrogenase CYP450 catalase |
|
ethanol toxicity treatment
|
no antidote
supportive care |
|
ethylene glycol toxicity mechanism (5)
|
acid -> anion gap acidosis
calcium oxylate crystals -> tissue inj. calcium oxylate crystals-> renal tubules acute tubular necrosis and renal failure cardiac failure and pulmonary edema |
|
ethylene glycol toxicity treatment
|
lavage (<2hrs)
activated charcoal alkalinize urine ETHANOL (block alcohol dehyrogenase)or FOMEPIZOLE (block ADH) folic acid, pyridoxine, thiamine |
|
methanol toxicity mechanism
|
methanol slowly met. to formaldehyde
formaldehyde quickly met. to formic acid formic acid-> acidosis, ocular toxicity |
|
methanol toxicity treatment
|
high O2
lavage (<30 min) alkalinize urine folic acid ETHANOL or FOMEPIZOLE |
|
isopropanol toxicity mechanism
|
CNS toxicity
high ketones (acetone) abdominal pain, gastritis no acidosis hypotension and coma |
|
isopropanol treatment
|
removal and adsorption
supportive care hemodialysis |
|
CCl4 toxicity and treatment
|
CNS depression
hepatic and renal toxicity no treatment |
|
gasoline toxicity and treatment
|
WORST = ASPIRATION
CNS depression lung inflammation cardiac arrhythmias DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING |
|
Lead absorption in kids and adults
|
GI- kids = 50%
adults = 8% Resp- into blood rapidly most moves to bones and teeth >10 years to turn over 1/2 of stored lead |
|
lead pathology
|
gi- constipation, metallic taste, lead colic
CNS- delayed development, encephalopathy blood- hypochromic, microcytic anemia, basophilic stippling mechanism- inhibits enzymes by binding to sulfhydryl groups (heme biosynthesis) |
|
lead treatment
|
chelation:
CaNa2EDTA |
|
MCC exposure to mecury
|
inhalation
binds to and inhibits sulfhydryl containing enzymes |
|
mercury treatment
|
elemental- DMSA, D-penicillamine, dimpercaprol
organic- DMSA, D-penicillamine, NOT dimercaprol |
|
cyanide poisoning
|
chemical asphyxia
binds ferric iron inhibits cellular resp, inhibits ox-phos venous blood is RED bitter almond breath inc. respiration agitation, coma, death |
|
cyanide treatment
|
sodium nitrite
thiosulfate (speeds conversion) methemoglobin (binds CN) |
|
antidote competes with poison
|
oxygen antidote for CO
|
|
antidote accelerates excretion
|
calcium salt antidote for radium
|
|
antidote blocks metabolic formation of poison from less toxic precursor
|
ethanol antidote for methanol and ethylene glycol
|
|
antidote accelerates metabolic conversion or poison to nontoxic product
|
