Wendy‚ I think your description of the pathophysiology of asthma was right on point. Due to the release of the mediators causing an increase in blood flow and vasoconstriction‚ which is why his BP increased and experiencing tachycardia. With bronchoconstriction‚ causing him to used excessive muscle to breathing‚ leading him to have tachypnea of 42 with shallow breathing. Since the patient is experiencing exacerbating‚ it is important to act quickly and manage it by early treatment and education

Pharmacodynamics Mechanisms of drug action: Drugs may act by: * A) Receptor mechanism: * Most drugs produce their action by binding to specific receptors located on the cell membrane (as adrenoceptors and cholinoceptors) or inside the cell (as steroid receptors). * This is the most important mechanism of drug action. * Drugs produce their effects by interacting with these receptors. * These drugs may be: a) Agonists: * Drugs have the affinity to bind with their

also essential for the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. A deficiency of iron limits oxygen delivery to cells‚ resulting in fatigue‚ poor work performance‚ and decreased immunity. On the other hand‚ excess amounts of iron can result in toxicity and even death. Almost two-thirds of iron in the body is found in haemoglobin‚ the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to tissues. Lesser amounts of iron are found in myoglobin‚ a protein that helps supply oxygen to muscle‚ and in enzymes

Paclitaxel (PTX) Paclitaxel (PTX)‚ a member of taxane family‚ it’s an effective antineoplastic agent for treatment of many forms cancer. The success of PTX in these diseases due to a broad spectrum of antitumor activity‚ efficacy in terms of dense disseminated tumours and a unique mechanism of action. This microtubule-stabilizing drug selectively disrupts the microtubule forces‚ which induces mitotic arrest that leads to cell death(Bernabeu et al. 2017). A brief run through of its development from
