Less CNS depression or constipation than opiates
Spasmolytic action - may be useful for pain
related to uterus, GI, bronchi, etc.
Combination with hydroxyzine or promethazine
permits 2550 dosage reduction
Principal drugs
Meperidine (Demerol)---accumulates in renal
disease, metabolite can cause siezures

Zyflo CR will be given BID instead of QID.
But patients will still need liver function
tests every month for the first 3 months...then
every 2 to 3 months for the rest of the first
year. 2007
Omalizumab. Save the monoclonal antibody, Xolair,
for patients with severe asthma and
allergies...who are not responding adequately to
high-dose inhaled steroids and long-acting
beta-agonists.
New NIH guidelines will improve asthma
treatment. You'll see renewed emphasis on
controlling symptoms...patient education...and
avoiding allergens.

Drugs Used to Treat Glaucoma
NAPLEX
62
Causes of Glaucoma Wide or open angle most
common, malfunction of trabecular meshwork
Narrow angle or closed angle obstruction of the
outflow of aqueous humor through the trabecular
meshwork.
PG 136
63

An instrument used to measure intraocular
pressure is a(n)
a. gonioscope
b. otoscope
c. ophthalmoscope
d. tonometer
e. barometer

An instrument used to measure intraocular
pressure is a(n)
a. gonioscope (lens to study angle of eye)
b. otoscope (instrument to examine the drum
membrane of the ear)
c. ophthalmoscope (device to study interior of
eye)
d. tonometer (device to measure intraocular
pressure)
e. barometer (device to measure the atmospheric
pressure)

Drugs for Glaucoma Treatment
Goal of Therapy reduced intraocular pressure
(IOP)
- measured by a tonometer (10-20mmhg)
- decrease rate of aqueous humor production
- increase rate of outflow (drainage) of aqueous
humor
Sympathomimetics increase outflow and decrease
production of aqueous humor
- epinephrine (Epifrin, Glaucon) discard if
color change occurs
- dipiverfrin (Propine) epinephrine prodrug
less side effects
- apraclonidine (Iopidine) alpha-2 agonist
watch for ocular allergy
- brimonidine (Alphagan) - alpha-2 agonist, more
selective

PG 136
66

Drugs for Glaucoma Treatment
Miotics (direct acting)have direct cholinergic
action causing miosis increases outflow, may
cause eye pain, burning, blurred vision less
with gel and Ocusert formulations
- acetylcholine (Miochol)
- carbachol (Isoptocarbachol)
- Pilocarpine (Isoptocarpine, Pilocar, Pilostat,
Pilopine HS, Ocusert Pilo)
Miotics (cholinesterase inhibitors)increase
cholinergic action by inhibiting cholinesterase
similar adverse effects as direct-acting miotics
- physostigmine (Eserine) may cause cataracts
- Demecarium (Humersol)
- Echothiophate (phospholine iodide)

- carteolol (Ocupress), levobunolol (Betagan,
