treatment of asthma and COPD
Tiotropium (Spiriva) mechanism of action Correct Answer
blocks acetylcholine = bronchodilation
Tiotropium (Spiriva) caution Correct Answer lactose
hypersensitivity, narrow-angle glaucoma, bladder neck
obstruction, renal impairment, breastfeeding, older adults

respiratory system
Montelukast (Singulair) classification Correct Answer
Bronchodilator: Leukotriene receptor antagonist
Montelukast (Singulair) uses Correct Answer Treatment of
allergic rhinitis, asthma, and exercise induced
bronchospasm prophylaxis
Montelukast (Singulair) mode of action Correct Answer
Binds with leukotriene receptors which inhibits
bronchoconstriction (no contraction smooth muscle).
Montelukast (Singulair) cautions Correct Answer Hepatic
disease, depression, suicidal ideation, corticosteroid
withdrawal, alcoholism, older adults
Montelukast (Singulair) drug interactions Correct Answer -
drug action is blocked by aspirin and NSAIDS
- increased drug levels with clopidogrel
Echinacea Correct Answer -decreases cold symptoms and
recovery time
- used for stimulating the immune system, antisepsis, viral
infections, influenza, and promotes wound healing.
