Short acting hypnotic of the reticular activating system

FENTANYL CITRATE (Sublimaze) MOA

narcotic analgesic

FLUMAZENIL (Romazicon) MOA

Flumazenil antagonizes benzodiazepines in CNS. reverse sedation, impairment of recall, and psychomotor impairment produced by benzodiazepines. Will not reverse hypoventilation or antagonize CNS effects of ethanol, barbiturates, or opioids.

FUROSEMIDE (Lasix) MOA

Inhibits electrolyte reabsorption promotes excretion of sodium, potassium, chloride

GLUCAGON hyperglcemia MOA

Increases blood glucose by stimulating glycolysis.

GLUCAGON beta blcker OD MOA

stabilize cardiac rhythm in beta-blocker overdose.

GLUCOSE -ORAL MOA

fast glucose

HALOPERIDOL (Haldol) MOA

strong antidopaminergic and weak anticholinergic. Acts on the CNS to depress subcortical areas, midbrain, and ascending reticular activating system in the brain.

HEPARIN SODIUM MOA

IX, XI, XII, plasmin. Does not lyse existing clots.

hydroxocobalamin binds cyanide ions to form cyanocobalamin

IPRATROPIUM BROMIDE (Atrovent) MOA

Blocks acetylcholine at the parasympathetic sites in bronchial smooth muscle causing bronchodilation.

KETAMINE (Ketalar) delerium MOA

Blocks pain receptors and minimizes spinal cord activity, between the thalamus and the limbic system.

KETAMINE (Ketalar) pain MOA

Blocks pain receptors and minimizes spinal cord activity, between the thalamus and the limbic system.

KETAMINE (Ketalar) RSI MOA

Blocks pain receptors and minimizes spinal cord activity, between the thalamus and the limbic system.

KETOROLAC (Toradol) MOA

anti-inflammatory acting non-narcotic analgesic activity by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis.

LIDOCAINE HCL (2%) MOA

Decreases automaticity by slowing the rate of Phase 4 depolarization.

LORAZEPAM (Ativan) MOA

Anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, sedative; suppresses seizure produced by foci in cortex, thalamus and limbic areas.

MAGNESIUM SULFATE MOA

Reduces striated muscle contractions and blocks peripheral neuromuscular transmission by reducing acetylcholinesterase release at the myoneural junction; manages seizures in toxemia of pregnancy; induces uterine relaxation; can cause bronchodilation after beta agonists and anticholinergics have been used.
