mucus that blocks the airway, pancreatic ducts, sweat gland ducts and vas deferens - CORRECT
ANSWER-cystic fibrosis AKA fibrocystic disease of pancreas
,a severe respiratory disease that is characterized by rapid respiratory failure, increased pulmonary
resistance and surfactant deficiency - CORRECT ANSWER-respiratory distress syndrome (RDS)
- anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and analgesic properties
- used for reducing pain, stiffness, swelling, redness, and fever associated with local inflammation
- pros: fewer side effects and longer duration of actions
-NSAIDs are associated with an increased risk of adverse cardio events like stroke, MI, and hypertension
- CORRECT ANSWER-NSAIDs
analgesic, antipyretic but does not reduce inflammation - CORRECT ANSWER-Acetaminophen
(Tylenol)
NSAID
safe for patient with heart disease - CORRECT ANSWER-Naproxen (Aleve)
Nsaids and corticosteriods to reduce inflammation
Allopurinol - Reduces uric acid. Doesn't relieve acute gout attacks. Increase fluid intake May cause
hypoglycemia.
