  • diarrhea
  • weight loss
  • sleep disturbance
  • HA
  • worsening of depression
22
Q

Study These Flashcards
A
  • CYP 3A4 inhibitors and inducers, 1A2 inducers
    • DO NOT USE WITH THEOPHYLLINE
23
Q

What COPD populations do you NOT use ICS in ever

Study These Flashcards
A
  • Repeated PNA events
  • Hx of mycobacterial infection
  • Blood eos < 100
24
Q

Non-pharm COPD

Study These Flashcards
A
  • Smoking cessation
  • Vaccine
    • Flu
    • Pneumoccocal
    • TDap
    • Zoster (shingles)
    • COVID
  • Pulm rehab
  • Long-term supplemental O2 (goal is >90%)
    • Long term is use >15hrs/day
  • There are surgical options
25
COPD assessment
1. Confirm dx (FEV1/FVC <0.7) 2. Assess airflow obstruction (FEV1 value) 3. Assess symptoms and risk of exacerbation
26
COPD FEV1 assessment
- GOLD 1 - mild: FEV1 >80% predicted - GOLD 2 - moderate: 50% < FEV1 < 80% - GOLD 3 - severe: 30% < FEV1 < 50% - GOLD 4 - very severe: FEV1 < 30%
27
COPD Group A requirements
- 0 or 1 moderate exacerbations (NOT leading to hospitalzations) - AND mMRC 0-1 or CAT <10
28
COPD Group B requirements
- 0 or 1 moderate exacerbations (NOT leading to hospitalzations) - AND mMRC >2, CAT >10
29
COPD Group E requirements
- 2+ moderate exacerbations in past year OR - 1+ in the last year that led to hospitalzation
30
COPD Group A initial treatment
bronchodilator (LABA or LAMA preferred over SABA or SAMA UNLESS there is only occasional dyspnea) - still give a SABA, SABA, or SAMA/SABA for symptom relief
31
COPD Group B intial treatment
LABA+LAMA - still give a SABA, SABA, or SAMA/SABA for symptom relief
32
COPD Group E initial treatment
LABA+LAMA (LABA+LAMA+ICS if blood eosinophil >300) - still give a SABA, SABA, or SAMA/SABA for symptom relief
33
COPD follow-up: patient has dyspnea as predominant feature
- Escalate to next step (LABA or LAMA → LABA+LAMA) - Consider switching inhaler type
34
COPD follow up: patient has exacerbation as predominatn feature
- If on LABA or LAMA, - Escalate to LABA+LAMA - If blood eos>300, go all the way to LABA+LAMA+ICS i - If on LABA+LAMA - If FORMER smoker, add zithro - If FEV1 <50% AND chronic bronchitis, add roflumilast - If blood eos >100, escalate to LABA+LAMA+ICS
35
COPD ICS descalation
- can consider de-escalating to LABA+LAMA if NO exacerbations in past year - If pt has a hx of asthma or features of asthma present, ICS is INDICATED
36
COPD mild exacerbation treatment
SABA
37
COPD moderate exacerbation treatment
SABA + ABX and/or PO corticosteroids
38
Asthma-COPD overlap treatment
ICS with LABA+/- LAMA
