CLASSIFICATIO N
ACTION
INDICATION Adjunct to diet in the treatment of elevated total cholestrol and LDL cholesterol with primary hypercholesterole mia To reduce the risk of coronary disease, mortality, and CV events, including stroke, TIA, MI Treatment of patients with hypertriglyceride mia Short-term tx of active duodenal ulcer Heartburn or GERD Active benign ulcer
ADVERESE EFFECT CNS:Headache,asth enia, sleep disturbances GI: Flatulence, diarrhea, abdominal pain, cramps, constipation, nausea, dyspepsia, heartburn, liver failure Respiratory: Sinusitis, pharyngitis Other: Rhabdomyolysis, acute renal failure, arthralgia, myalgia CNS: Headache, dizziness, asthenia, vertigo, insomnia, apathy, anxiety, paresthesias, dream abnormalities
NURSING RESPONSIBILITIE S
Ensure that patient has tried a cholesterollowering diet regimen for 36 mos. before beginning therapy. Give in the evening; highest rates of cholesterol synthesis are between midnight and 5 AM. Advise patient that this drug cannot be taken during pregnancy; advise patient to use barrier contraceptives. Arrange for regular follow-up during longterm therapy. Consider reducing dose if cholesterol falls below target. Administer before meals. Caution patient to swallow capsules whole, not to open, chew, or crush them. Arrange for further evaluation of patient after 8 wk of therapy
Inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, the enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the cholesterol synthesis pathway, resulting in a decrease in serum cholesterol, serum LDLs, and either an increase or no change in serum HDLs.
Gastric acid-pump ANTI-SECRETORY inhibitor: Suppresses DRUG gastric acid secretion PROTON PUMP by specific inhibition INHIBITOR of the hydrogenpotassium ATPase enzyme system at the
secretory surface of the gastric parietal cells; blocks the final step of acid production
Rash, inflammation, alopecia, dry skin GI: Diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation flatulence, borborygmi, belching, abdominal cramps, pain, distention (initial dose), diarrhea (excessive dose), nausea and vomiting, hypernatremia
for gastro reflux disorders; not intended for maintenance therapy. Administer antacids with omeprazole, if needed. Check stool consistency Monitor electrolyte levels, serum ammonia level Monitor I&0 Monitor patient for any adverse effects, GI reactions, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea Give laxative syrup orally with fruit juice, water or milk to increase palatability increase oral fluid intake to prevent dehydration
LAXATIVE
drug passes unchanged into the colon where bacteria break it down to organic acids that increases the osmotic pressure in the colon and slightly acidify the colonic contents, resulting in an increase in stool water content, stool softening
Constipation painful anal and rectal conditions, preventions and treatment of portal-systemic encephalophaty (PSE)
NEUROTICS
Headache Slow or fast heartbeat Nausea or vomiting Low blood pressure such as faintness or dizziness
Citicoline may be taken with or without food. Take it with or between meals.
in the neuronal membrane, increases cerebral metabolism and increases the level of various neurotransmitt ers, including acetylcholine and dopamine. Citicoline has shown neuroprotectiv e effects in situations of hypoxia and ischemia.

Diarrhea
The supplement should not be taken in the late afternoon or at night because it can cause difficulty sleeping. Women who are pregnant or trying to become pregnant should consult with their doctor before taking the supplements. Not enough is known about the use of Citicoline during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Stay on the safe side and avoid use. Contact the physician immediately if allergic reaction Citicoline therapy should be started within 24 hours of a stroke. The physician will prescribe the correct dosage and the length
of time it should be taken for a medical condition. Assess patient for history of allergy to amlodipine, impaired hepatic or renal function, sick sinus syndrome, heart block, or CHF. Assess for adverse drug reactions; report irregular heartbeat, swelling of the hands and feet, shortness of breath, pronounced dizziness, and constipation. Monitor BP and cardiac rhythm. Instruct patient to take drug with meals if abdominal discomfort occurs; advise on eating small, frequent meals for N &V.
Inhibits calcium ions from entering the slow channels or select voltage sensitive areas of vascular smooth muscle and myocardium during depolarization
CNS: Dizziness, Lightheadedness, Fatigue, Lethargy CV: Peripheral edema, Arhythmias Dermatologic: Flushing, rash GI: Nausea, Abdominal discomfort
Competitively blocks ANTIbeta-adrenergic HYPERTENSIVE receptors in the heart BETA- SELECTIVE and juxtaglomerular ADRENERGIC apparatus, BLOCKER decreasing the influence of the sympathetic nervous system on these tissues and the excitability of the heart, decreasing cardiac output and the release of renin, and lowering BP; acts in the CNS to reduce sympathetic outflow and vasoconstrictor tone.
Hypertension Prevention of reinfarction in MI Treatment of angina pectoris Treatment of stable, symptomatic CHF of ischemic, hypertensive, or cardiomyopathic origin
CNS: Dizziness, vertigo, tinnitus CV: CHF, cardiac arrhythmias, peripheral vascular insufficiency, claudication, CVA, pulmonary edema, hypotension Dermatologic: Rash, pruritus, sweating, dry skin GI: Gastric pain, flatulence, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, GU: Impotence, decreased libido, Respiratory: Bronchospasm, dyspnea, cough, bronchial obstruction
Take apical pulse and BP before administering drug. Report to physician significant changes in rate, rhythm, or quality of pulse or variations in BP prior to administration. Monitor BP, HR, and ECG carefully during IV administration. Expect maximal effect on BP after 1 wk of therapy. Observe hypertensive patients with CHF closely for impending heart failure: Dyspnea on exertion, orthopnea, night cough, edema, distended neck veins. Monitor I&O, daily weight; auscultate daily for pulmonary rales. Monitor patients with thyrotoxicosis closely
