Question Answer
Biologic Targeted Therapy (Immunomodulators) TNF "-mab" Infliximab (IV), Adalimumab (Self Administered 1-2w), Certolizumab (by a Healthcare provider q 4w), Golimumab x2 first month then every 4w
Antimicrobials Metronidazole, Ciproflaxacin
5ASA Mesalamine Olsalazine Balsalazide Sulfalazine w/ Sulfapyridine orally Available: Suppositories, enema & Foam *Yellow/orange Urine/skin (Not harmful) Photosensitivity & Folic Acid Deficiency
Corticosteroids Budesonide & Prednisolone *Need Ca+ Supplement *Leads to Sodium Retention & potassium lost * Shortest time possible Taper off when surgery is planned
Immunosuppressant Azathioprine, 6-MP, methotrexate (not for pregnant women), Cyclosporine NOT for Acute Flare up/delayed onset
Anticholinergic Decrease Peristalsis (Remember cholinergic act on the PNS- Rest & Digest)
Anemia Complication of Bloody Diarrhea Oral (Iron gluconate/Ferrous Sulfate), Severe (Iron Dextran)
Desmopressin Acetate & chlorpropamide Hormone Replacement for Diabetes Insipidus (ADH)
Inflammatory Bowel Syndrome Diet High Calories, High Vitamin, High Protein, Low-residue, Lactose-Free, Small Frequent Meals and Avoid Spicy foods.
Cholestyramine Associated with Crohn's disease especially involving the ileum. Patients with Bile Acid Malabsorption can use Cholestyramine. Cholestyramine works by helping Bile Binds to unabsorbed bile fats (helps control diarrhea).
Cobalamin (Vitamin B12) May be needed for Crohn's disease affecting the ileum since absorption of Vitamin B12 is in the ileum. Injection form monthly Nasal/Oral daily. (Also zinc may help with diarrhea)
Thiazide May reduce flow to ADH sensitive Distal nephrons
TPN (Resting Bowels) Monitor Capillary Glucose (Insulin use sliding scale), Start Low & Go slow, Good for 24hrs, Need a large gauge needle PICC/CVAD.
Carbamezapine Anticonvulsant Treat seizures
indomethacin NSAID that helps increase Renal Responsiveness in nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidius
Conivaptan & Tolivaptan Retain Electrolytes & Release Water (Used for SIADH)
Declomycin Drugs Block effects on the Renal tubules (SIADH)
3% Hypertonic Saline Treat Severe hypernatremia (seizures)
Furosemide Diuretic used for Fluid Volume Excess (use only if the patient has at least125mEq/L)
Lithium Can induce Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus
Metronidazole, Vancomycin & ($$Fidomoxacin) Commonly used for C-diff
Metamucil Bulk Laxative
Anticholinergics (Tolterodine & Oxybutynin)/Antispasmodics (Baclofen) Helps with decreasing GI tract hypermotility: Diarrhea & Overactive Bladder: Neurogenic Spastic Bladder
Terazosin & Doxazosin Alpha Adrenergic Blocker: Underactive Bladder (Retention) Relax the bladder muscles
Donnatol Relieves Cramping in Involuntary Muscles
Sodium IV Hypertonic Administer Hypovolemic Hyponatremia
IV calcium Gluconate Hypocalcemia (may need Magnesium in addition), Hyperkalemia, Hypermagnesium
Biphosphonates Full glass of water on an empty stomach & must sit upright for 30minutes (Used for Osteoporsis)
Calcitonin IM or IV (Nasal Not effective) (Used for Osteoporosis)
Kayexalate Binds to potassium in exchange for sodium "K+ exit"
Sodium Bicarbonate Hyperkalemia Caused by metabolic Acidosis
IV insulin followed by glucose Helps let K+ Travel back into the cell, & (hyperphosphatemia)
IV potassium Never exceed 10-20mEq/L & Use infusion pump. only give if urine output is 0.5ml/kg/hr, Never IV push or Bolus. Preferred max. 40mEq/L, Invert several times for even distribution, Rapid correction necessary (central line)
IV phosphorus (Potassium phosphate & Sodium phosphate) Used for Hypophosphatemia (Monitor for signs of hypocalcemia when administering)
Calcemia Supplements Help with hyperphosphatemia
Phosphate Binding Agent (Calcium Carbonate) Helps eliminate excess phosphorus
Aluminum Antiacids Treat hyperphosphatemia (not for CDK)
Hemodalysis Chronic Kidney failure (Hyperphosphatemia, hypermagnesium, hyperkalemia)
IV magnesium monitor for decreased DTR's, Respiratory difficulty & decreased blood pressure if these occur stop! Used to elevate Magnesium levels
