Treatment of persistent asthma
|
1) Mild = inhaled steroids alone
2) Moderate = add short-acting beta agonist + possibly leukotriene blocker (+ possibly inhaled long-acting beta agoinst) 3) Increase dose of inhaled steroid + possibly inhaled long acting bronchodilaor + possibly leukotriene blocker antagoinst + possibly theophyline + possibly omalizumab 4) Severe = oral steroids |
|
Treatment of AE COPD
|
Antibiotics
Short-acting beta agoinsts Inhaled anticholinergic Steroids - oral at least 2 weeks or inhaled Treat respiratory failure Non-invasive PP ventilation |
|
Methylxanthines (theophylline)
|
Possible moleculare mechanisms:
Inhibit PDE --> prevent cAMP breakdown --> relaxes smooh muscle airway Adenosine antagonism Catecholamine release Effects suppressor T cells Narrow therapeutic index, use only in combo |
|
Beta 2 agonists
|
Activate AC --> cAMP --> smooth muscle relaxation
Also bind to K+ channels All have beta-1 activity Tremor, due to beta-2 skeletal muscle receptors Metabolic effects include hypokalemia, hyperglycemia, especially with cardiac disease |
|
SABA
