Haparin is a medication used to prevent and treat blood clots. It is administered by injection. Heparin can never be administered orally because it is large and negatively charged and cannot pass the membrane to be absorbed. Heparin has a wide variety of uses pertaining to blood clots. It can be used to treat some clotting disorders, to prevent blood clots after surgery, during dialysis, during blood transfusions, when collecting a blood sample, or when a person is rendered unable to move for a long period of time. Heparin is known as an anticoagulant.

You should avoid giving NSAIDs to pregnant women primarily because it results I the prolongation of gestation, or also results in delayed spontaneous labor. It causes the inhibition of contractile PGs within the uterus wall hence resulting in a delay of the labor onset. Labor is considered as the most critical stage in the period of pregnancy. It is the stage where the child is ready to be delivered along with the placenta and the umbilical cord still attached. Hence, a delay in the onset of labor could result in several complications which can be fatal for both the mother and the baby in severe cases.

1. postural hypotension-learning objective: describe the nitrate-induced postural hypotension.answer: bnitrates can cause postural hypotension since venodilation decreases preload. in fact aninsufficient left ventricular end diastolic volume (due to decreased venous return, hypovolemia,etc.) is the most common cause of postural hypotension. postural hypotension is even morelikely in this patient since her blood pressure is low.a) nitrates tend to cause bronchodilation so cough and wheezing are unlikely.c) nitrates tend to cause reflex tachycardia, not bradycardia.d) nitrates very rarely cause methemoglobinemia when given at therapeutic doses. in order toget this effects the doses given must be huge. on the other hand therapeutic doses of nitritescan cause methemoglobinemia.e) nitrates tend to cause relaxation of the gut smooth muscle, so diarrhea is unlikely.f) nitrates decrease platelet aggregation, so venous thrombosis is quite unlikely..

1. hydrochlorothiazide-learning objective: describe the main adverse effects of thiazides.answer: bthe symptoms of the patient and the lab results indicate that he was most likely suffering from gout arthritis. chronic treatment with thiazides may cause hyperuricemia and precipitate attacksof gout in patients at risk. hyperuricemia is likely due both to hypovolemia-induced increase ofuric acid reabsorption and to competition with urates for the organic acid transport system in theproximal tubule.being a painter, the patient was already at risk of gout since a strong association existsbetween the risk of gout and lead exposure through diet or occupations (painters, plumbers,etc.)d) furosemide can cause hyperuricemia but the drug is rarely used as an antihypertensive.a, c, e, f) these drugs do not cause hyperuricemia.

The answer is all of the above. When blood slows down, as answer A suggests, the blood can stagnate and become clotted. The clot happens because the blood can’t move, but also because blood likes to stick to itself - that’s how a clot is formed to begin with. This is often combated in hospitals with special pumping tourniquets that will keep the blood from stagnating. An abnormal surface in contact with blood can also cause clotting. It gives the blood something else to stick to, and gives it a place to start the clot. These can be dangerous if the cause isn’t identified. An abnormality in the blood clotting systems can also cause clots to happen by allowing the blood to clot too easily. Estrogen therapy is another cause that can create clots that shouldn’t be there. It simply increases the chances that a clot will form where it shouldn’t.
