FastFast absorption

Mucous membrane and respiratory tract

Depends on the form of the drug Aqueous Is Quicker compared with oil which slow Absorption not a lot of meds mix with oil

Inhaled into the nose or lungs for a local And systemic affect

I inhalation

Verify patient identification before each med is administration

Right patient

Correct interpret medication prescription verifying completeness and clarity

Right med

Use a unit dose system to reduce errors if not available calculate the correct medication dose

Right dose

Administer Medication on time to maintain a consistent therapeutic Blood level generally acceptable to administer the medication 30 minutes before and after the schedule time

Right time

Select the correct preparation for the route the provider prescribes

Right route

Undesirable effects with more serious consequences then of side effects

Adverse effect

Toxicity affect

Strongest warning FDA put on drugs while still allowing market in the US

Blackbox warning

Four types of drug action

Stimulation, replacement, inhibition and irritation

Adequate daily fluid makes essential for a drug elimination

50 mL per kilogram per day

Medication is absorbed into the bloodstream and distributed into the tissue

Drug absorption

Rate of absorption depends on

``` Age sex wt disease genetic factor immune mechanism and emotional factor ``` The route a minister affects absorption IV is the fastest way
