Q

Epinephrine: MoA

A

Binds to adrenergic receptors, stimulating G-coupled proteins, adenylate cyclase, and cAMP.

Low doses = stimulation of beta2 = vasodilation, bronchodilation, decreased histamine release

Higher doses = stimulation of alpha1 = peripheral, renal, splanchnic vasoconstriction and decrease in bronchial secretions

Q

Norepi MoA:

A

Binds to alpha and beta1 adrenergic receptors, stimulating C-coupled proteins, adenylate cyclase, and cAMP.

Low doses = increased CO (inotrophy and chronotrophy) and increased blood pressure.

High doses = potent alpha1 effects outweighs beta –> arterial constriction and decreased vital organ blood flow.

Hypersensitivity Cardiogenic shock, bradycardia, 2nd or 3rd degree heart block Pregnancy
171
Amiodarone: drug interactions
Inhibits CYP450 enzymes = increased conc of warfarin, procainamide, digoxin Fentanyl = cardiac arrest, bradycardia, hypotension
172
Amiodarone: dosing
A-flutter, Stable VT/SVT: 150mg IV over 10 mins, 1 mg/min over next 6 hrs, then 0.5 mg/min over next 18hrs Pulseless VT/VF: 300mg IVP, then 150mg IVP, then gtt
173
Digoxin: class
Antiarrythmic | Cardiac glycoside
174
Digoxin: MoA
Directly inhibits Na+/K+/ATPase pump, which increases Na+ in cardiac myocytes, which decreases Ca++ outflow by Na+/Ca++ pump, which increases available calcium for cardiac muscle contractions. Also decreases sympathetic tone and increases vagal tone to slow conduction through SA and AV nodes
175
Digoxin: PK
``` Onset = 5-30mins IV Peak 1-5 hrs E1/2life = 30-48hrs Vd 7L/kg 25% PB ```
176
Digoxin: metabolism
Hepatic metabolism | 50% excreted by kidneys unchanged.
177
Digoxin: AE
EKG changes: prolonged PR interval, ST depression, T wave changes Dysrhythmias Heart block Blurred vision NV, diarrhea, headache, fatigue
178
Digoxin: CI
Vfib, v-tach, heart block IHSS Renal impairment (decrease dose) Hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia or hypercalcemia can lead to toxicity
179
Digoxin: dosing
Loading dose = 0.75-1.5mg PO or 0.5-1.0mg IV Maint dose = 0.125-0.5mg PO or 0.25mg IV Therapeutic level 0.5-2.0ng/mL
