Front 40

what is bacteria

Back 40

are a large domain of single-celled, prokaryotic microorganisms. They have a wide range of shapes and characteristics, such as anaerobic or aerobic, rods, or gram positive or gram negative.

Front 41

what is a virus

Back 41

is a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of organisms

Front 42

what is fungus

Back 42

is a plant that produces yeastlike or moldlike diseases called mycotic infections

Front 43

antibiotics

Back 43

Antibiotics are strong medicines that treat bacterial infections. Antibiotics won't treat viral infections because they can't kill viruses. You'll get better when the viral infection has run its course.

Front 44

side effects to antibiotics

Back 44

vomiting, diarrhea, nausea

Front 45

Cephalosporins are used for

Back 45

serious infections, like bacteremia and septicemia (infections of the blood); and infections of the lower respiratory tract, central nervous system (CNS), genitourinary system, joints, and bones. These drugs are also used in patients who cannot take penicillin.

Front 46

vomiting

Back 46

Antidopaminergic agents such as chlorpromazine and prochlorpromazine (Compazine) are used almost exclusively to control nausea and vomiting

Front 47

signs of toxicity in dopaminergic agents

Back 47

Early signs of toxicity in the patient taking dopaminergic agents include muscle twitching and blepharospasm (eyelid spasms).

Front 48

stool softener

Back 48

soften stool by lowering the surface tension, which allows the fecal mass to be softened by intestinal fluids. They also inhibit fluid and electrolyte reabsorption by the intestine.

Front 49

laxative stimulant

Back 49

increase peristalsis by several mechanisms, depending on the agent. These mechanisms include primary stimulation of colon nerves (senna preparations), stimulation of sensory nerves in the intestinal mucosa (bisacodyl), or direct stimulation of smooth muscle and inhibition of water and electrolyte reabsorption from the intestinal lumen (castor oil).

Front 52

anticholinergic drugs

Back 52

mimic the fight-or-flight response. These drugs are commonly used for their autonomic function in the treatment of many respiratory and GI disorders. The drugs increase heart rate, dilate pupils, dry secretions, and dilate the bronchi of the respiratory tract.
