Vomiting induction

Due to frequent laxative intake and vomiting induction, a related electrolyte imbalance may be observed in people with bulimia. Sodium normal reference values are in the range of 133-147 mmol/L. [Pg.92]

An anesthetic gas, cyclopropane has a rapid onset of action and may be used for induction and maintenance of anesthesia Skeletal muscle relaxation is produced with full anesthetic doses. Cyclopropane is supplied in orange cylinders. Disadvantages of cyclopropane are difficulty in detecting the planes of anesthesia, occasional laryngospasm, cardiac arrhythmias, and postanesthesia nausea, vomiting, and headache Cyclopropane and oxygen mixtures are explosive, which limits the use of this gas anesthetic. [Pg.321]

The adverse effects of pilocarpine are caused by the induction of miosis. The contraction of the ciliary muscle causes the lens to displace forward, which can lead to accommodation spasm, myopia, and brow ache. Pupillary constriction can also affect night vision. Pilocarpine should be avoided in patients with severe myopia, as it increases the risk of developing retinal detachment. Systemic effects may occur at higher concentrations and include, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and bradycardia. [Pg.920]

Penicillamine onset may be seen in 1 to 3 months, and most responses occur within 6 months. Early adverse effects include skin rash, metallic taste, hypogeusia, stomatitis, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and dyspepsia. Glomerulonephritis may occur, which manifests as proteinuria and hematuria. Penicillamine is usually reserved for patients who are resistant to other therapies because of the rare but potentially serious induction of autoimmune diseases (e.g., Goodpasture s syndrome, myasthenia gravis). [Pg.52]

Treatment — As with other toxin therapies, treatment is limited mainly to supportive management. Mechanical respiration support may be required in severe cases. An antitoxin has shown success in animal models, but no human data are available to date. No vaccine has been developed. Induction of vomiting may prove to be useful as part of the treatment program. Ipecac syrup is a good emetic that could be used to induce vomiting.3... [Pg.108]

Parenteral Immediately before induction of anesthesia, or postoperatively if the patient experiences nausea or vomiting shortly after surgery, administer 4 mg undiluted IV in not less than 30 seconds, preferably over 2 to 5 minutes. Alternatively, 4 mg undiluted may be administered IM as a single injection in adults. In patients who do not achieve adequate control, administration of a second IV dose of 4 mg ondansetron postoperatively does not provide additional control of nausea and vomiting. [Pg.1001]

For the plant, another good way to stop consumption by an animal is to affect the animal s gastrointestinal system. This approach is used by a number of plants, but the mechanism of action varies. The first approach is direct irritation of the stomach lining to induce nausea and vomiting. The induction of mild vomiting is useful in some situations. The sacred bark of the California buckthorn produces cascara that is used to induce mild vomiting (a purgative). [Pg.165]

In anesthesia drugs from several groups are used as premedication. Pre-anesthetic medication can decrease the anesthetic doses which otherwise would be required to induce anesthesia and so decrease the risk for adverse effects. Pre-anesthetic medication will increase the rate of induction of anesthesia and can reduce pre-operative pain and anxiety. Drugs include benzodiazepines for sedation and their muscle relaxant properties, opiates for pain relieve and anticholinergics or histamine Hi receptor antagonists against nausea and vomiting. Neuroleptics are also used as premedication for their antiemetic effects. [Pg.361]

Opioids are used for the management of both acute and chronic pain. However, in addition to pain relieve, opioids have a wide variety of other effects. Some of these side effects can be particularly harmful, such as respiratory depression and the induction of dependency. Gastrointestinal effects like obstipation, nausea and vomiting can limit their use. [Pg.435]

Prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting IV,IM 4 mg as a single dose PO 16 mg 1 hour before induction of anesthesia. [Pg.905]

Much more is known about overdose with the immediate-release formulation of bupropion than with the newer, SR and XL formulations. Reported reactions to overdose with the immediate-release form include seizures, hallucinations, loss of consciousness, and sinus tachycardia. Treatment of overdose should include induction of vomiting, administration of activated charcoal, and electrocardiographic and electroencephalographic monitoring. For seizures, an intravenous benzodiazepine preparation is recommended. [Pg.36]

Carbamazepine overdose first leads to neuromuscular disturbances, such as nystagmus, myoclonus, and hyperreflexia, with later progression to seizures and coma. Cardiac conduction changes are possible. Nausea, vomiting, and urinary retention also may occur. Treatment should include induction of vomiting, gastric lavage, and supportive care. After a serious overdose, blood pressure and respiratory and kidney function should be monitored for several days. [Pg.155]

Inhibition of conditioned (but not unconditioned) avoidance behavior is one of the most predictive tests of antipsychotic action. Another is the inhibition of amphetamine- or apomorphine-induced stereotyped behavior. Other tests that may predict antipsychotic action are reduction of exploratory behavior without undue sedation, induction of a cataleptic state, inhibition of intracranial self-stimulation of reward areas, and prevention of apomorphine-induced vomiting. Most of these tests are difficult to relate to any model of clinical psychosis. [Pg.633]

Cladribine Inhibits DNA synthesis and repair inhibits ribonucleotide reductase incorporation of cladribine triphosphate into DNA induction of apoptosis Hairy cell leukemia, CLL, non-Hodgkin s lymphoma Myelosuppression, nausea and vomiting, and immunosuppression... [Pg.1171]

Intramuscular methotrexate 50 mg/m2 followed by intravaginal misoprostol was effective in the induction of first trimester abortion. Adverse events following the administration of misoprostol included nausea (12%), vomiting (8.1%), diarrhea (7.4%), and fevers/chills (3.4%) (4). [Pg.127]
