What are the 3 categories of pain medications - ANSWER-1. non-
opioids: for mild pain or in combination for moderate pain
2. Opioids: for moderate to severe pain
3. Co-analgesic or adjuvant drugs (i.e. anticonvulsants,
antidepressants) for neuropathic pain
,Name 4 types of Nonopioid Analgesics - ANSWER-1.
Acetaminophen: Tylenol
2. Salicylates: Aspirin, Trilisate
3. NSAIDS: ibuprofen, Indomethacin, Ketorolac, Diclofenac
4. COX-2 inhibitors: Celebrex
What type of drug is Aspirin? - ANSWER-Non opioid Analgesic
Salicylates
Choline magnesium trisaliclate (Trilisate) is another type of non
opioid Analgesic salicylates
Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is what type of drug?
What is the maximum recommended dosage?
What should you monitor? - ANSWER-Nonopioid Analgesics.
Max dose: 4000 mg (4 g) in 24 hrs
Monitor liver function
What have NSAIDs (except aspirin) been linked to and what type
of patient should not take NSAIDs? - ANSWER-NSAIDs (except
aspirin) have been linked to a higher risk for increased
cardiovascular events, such as myocardial infarction, stroke,

Adjuvant drugs
- used for neuropathic pain
- Antiepileptic drugs, antidepressants, and anesthetics are
prescribed alone or in combination with opioids for
neuropathic pain,
- Corticosteroids
What is a Mu agonist? - ANSWER-The so-called agonist-
antagonist drugs have a relationship to the opioid receptors that
includes activation and blockade. Some of these drugs activate
one type of opioid receptor, known as the kappa receptor, while
blocking another, the mu receptor
