Final Exam

patients with renal insufficiency should be cautious when taking medications that contain what?

magnesium has what kind of effect on the body?

these are alkaline chemical agents that reduce corrosiveness of gastric acid and decrease pepsin activity

these are used for relief of symptoms of hyperacidity and PUD, the primary goal being the relief of pain by neutralizing acids

this type of antacid is rapidly absorbed in the stomach and sm. intestine and are capable of causing pH changes in the blood

long term use of this kind of antacid puts a high burdon on the kidneys

an example of a systemic antacid would be what?

this type of antacid is most useful for long term therapy, most of the dose remains in the GI tract, and does not alter acid base balance

prolonged use of compounds with aluminum hydroxide can cause ______ depletion

antacids containing these two salts cause constipation

these drugs are considered non-systemic antacids

these drugs are used in the Tx of duodenal ulcers, gastric ulcers, and disorders that cause secretion of excessive stomach acid

this H2 receptor antagonist is not to be given with antacids, do not crush of chew these tablets...no alcohol, NSAIDS and salicylates

these drugs are used for GERD and promote ulcer healing, relief of pain and decreases gastric acid production.....Tx of active duodenal ulcer

these block the final step of acid production by inhibiting H, K, AT-pase system at secretory surface of gastric parietal cell...usually short term

the side effects of these meds are headache, dizziness, pancreatitis, liver necrosis, hepatic failure, N/V, diarrhea

this PPI drug is given before meals, and alcohol and OTC drugs should be avoided...short term use to prevent gastric tumors

this mucosal protectant is an antiulcer and is to be taken on an empty stomach and 30 min before or after antacids...do not crush or chew..no smoking, EOTH or caffine

this mucosal protectant is an antisecretory and inhibits gastric acid secretion...protects gastric mucosa by ^ bicarb and mucous production

these meds are used for symptomatic gastric reflux, prevention of N/V in cancer chemo therapy
-stimulate motility in the upper GI tract w/o stimulating production of gastric, biliary or pancreatic secretions

this drug increases peristalsis in duodenum and jejunum without increasing motility in lrg. intestine...relaxes pyloric sphincter... accelerates gastric emptying

these drugs can cause CND depression, GI upset, Development of parkinsonism like reactions

this drug is a prokinetic agent that cant be taken with EOTH or CNS depressants

these drugs are used to treat peptic ulcers prior to the discovery of safer drugs, and they have side effects such as dry mouth and constipation

these are stimulant laxatives

this is a stool softener/surfactant
