OD 75 mg PO
Concentration of antibiotics when given concomitantly.
Acute and chronic disorder of the respiratory tract associated with pathologically thickened mucus and impaired mucus transport.
There are no absolute contraindications but in patients with gastric ulceration relative caution should be observed.

Adverse reaction
Nursing Precaution
Salbuterol
bronchodilator
1 neb
Stimulates Beta 2 receptors of bronchioles by increasing levels which relaxes smooth muscles to produce bronchodilation. Also cause CNS stimulation, cardiac stimulation, increase in diuresis, skeletal muscle tremors and increase gastric acid secretions.
Relief of bronchospasm in bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema and other reversible obstructive pulmonary disease
Hypersensitivity to salbutamol, also to atropine and its derivatives. Threatened abortion during first or second trimester.
Fine skeletal muscle tremors, leg cramps, palpitations, tachycardia, hypertension, headache, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, hyperactivity, insomnia, hypotension, heartburn, epistaxis, cough
-Assess cardio- respiratory function, BP, heart rate and rhythm, and breathe sounds.
-Determine history of previous meds and ability to self-medicate.
-Monitor for evidence of allergic action and paradoxical bronchospasm

Mechanism of Action
Specific indication
Contra-indication
Adverse reaction
Nursing Precaution
Omeprazole
Antisecretory
Proton pump inhibitor
40mg IVTT OD
Gastric acid-pump inhibitor: Suppresses gastric acid secretion by specific inhibition of the hydrogen-potassium ATPase enzyme system at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cells; blocks the final step of acid production.
Reduction of risk of upper GI bleeding
Contraindicated with hypersensitivity to Omeprazole or its components.
Headache, dizziness, asthenia, vertigo, insomnia, apathy, anxiety, paresthesias,
dream abnormalities, rash, inflammation, urticaria, pruritus, alopecia, dry skin, diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, dry mouth
-Arrange regular medical check-ups.
-Advise pt to report immediately for side effects.

~ Advise parents or caregivers to check concentrations of liquid preparations. Errors have resulted in serious liver damage.
~ Assess fever; note presence of associated signs (diaphoresis, tachycardia, and malaise).
~ Adults should not take acetaminophen longer than 10 days and children not longer than 5 days unless directed by health care professional.
~ Advise mother or caregiver to take medication exactly as directed and not to take more than the recommended amount.

NURSING RESPONSIBILITIES
Acetylcysteine
Reference :Daviss drug guide for nurses 11th edition
Exflem
Mucolytic
Acetylcysteine exerts its mucolytic action through its free sulfhydryl group, which opens the disulfide bonds and lowers mucus viscosity. This action increases with increasing pH and is most significant at pH 7 to 9. The mucolytic action of acetylcysteine is not affected by the presence of DNA.
