Outline
* Definition of racemic epinephrine
* A racemic mixture used as a bronchodilator to treat receptors in the airways.
* It acts as a muscle relaxer to prevent preventing difficulties during asthmatic attacks
* It’s recommended by doctors to counter the attack effects of croup and severe asthmatic attack.
* Classification
* The drug is classified as a Sympathomimetic drug, according to its mode of application and actions.
* Sympathomimetic drugs stimulate receptors in the affected area, such as inhibiting contraction of airway muscles in asthmatic patients.
* Process of action
* The drug acts through stimulation and relaxation of nerves and muscles.
* The drug also acts as an inhibitor, such as in preventing laryngeal edema.
* Application
* It' used to control muscle movements by mimicking the stimulation action of different drugs on nerve receptors.
* It prevents acute asthmatic attacks by stimulating the alpha and beta receptors in the airways.
* Inhibits the release of histamine which affects the normal contraction of airways.
* Prevents the effects of subglottic edema after endotheachal extubation.
* Drug Functioning
* The drug is administered through inhalation, and it is absorbed into the
* Effects on Respiratory System
* It stimulates the nerves, which causes tingling sensations in the muscles.
* It relaxes the muscles
* Side effects include headaches, nausea, hypertension, and vomiting.
* Post-Care Recommendation
* Necessary to develop mechanisms for procedural administration to increase efficiency of breathing.
* Monitoring of vital signs, such severe side effects.
Racemic Epinephrine
Description
Different medical databases and journals have defined the drug as "a racemic mixture of epinephrine that is used a bronchodilator," (Cornfield, 2014). This is another important observation and classification that defines the drug as bronchodilator, which is used to treat receptors in the airways. This is a condition that is as a result of asthmatic attacks that blocks and stiffness the airways. The necessity is developing the counter agent that relaxes the muscles and prevents breathing difficulties during excessive exercises. More importantly, many doctors have recommended the Racemic Epinephrine to be used in various situations that are important and essential in counterattacking the effects of Croup that can lead to extensive cases of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Thus, it offers extra support to the many different actions and inhibitions that result from asthmatic attacks, (Cornfield, 2014). The drug provides the necessary agents that acts as a basis for relaxing and stimulating the alpha and beta receptors. Therefore, it is important and necessary to administer this drug as offered and described by physicians, due to the nature of the contents and risks involved.
Classification
Racemic Epinephrine according to its mode of application and actions, it has been classified under the class of Sympathomimetic drugs. These are the drugs that act on the action based effects of developing and increasing the foundation of nerve like actions. The drugs are based on the mode of action and based on their area of stimulation, (Fleisher, 2010). The action and mode of action is based on the adrenaline action on adrenergic nerve terminal. Therefore, the drugs provide a basis of acting and stimulating receptors that inhibit contraction such as airways and bronchial tubes. The resulting action is the development and creation of the necessary receptors that are necessary in supporting breathing systems. More importantly, the drugs are based on the adrenaline subclass, which is another broader category that is essential in supporting the flow of blood on vessels, (Kelly, 2013). Furthermore, the need of using this drugs, offers the nature of action or act of mimicking stimulating, while creating the balance between relaxation and mode of action. Through the classification processes, the many drugs in this class have been classified into selective and non-selective drugs, due to the mode of administration and action.
