Adrenergic Direct Agonist Flashcards
Cardiovascular system (B1)
-Positive Chronotropic effect
-Positive inotropic effect
Vascular Smooth Muscle (alpha 1 and Beta 2)
-Alpha 1: Vasoconstriction
-Beta 2: Vasodilation
Respiratory Tract (Beta 2)
Bronchodilation
Urinary Tract (Alpha 1 and Beta 3)
-Relaxes Bladder
-Constrict Sphincter
GI tract (Alpha 1 and Beta 2)
-Decrease GI motility
-Constrict Sphincter
Glands (M3)
Stimulation secretion (sweat glands)
Kidney (Beta 1)
Increase Renin secreation
Adipocytes (Beta 3)
Increase Lipolysis
Which have the strongest response to alpha agonist?
Epinephrine > Norepinephrine»_space; Isoproterenol
Which have the strongest response to Beta agonist?
Isoproterenol > Epinephrine > Norepinephrine
Alpha 1 (Gq)
-Vascular s. Muscle: Vasoconstriction
-GI and bladder sphincter: Constriction
Alpha 2 (Gi)
Suppression of release of Norepinephrine by negative feedback.
Which is one of the most potent vasopressor drugs known?
Epinephrine
-Low dose: predominantly B1 and B2
-High dose: prefers a1 than B2
What can given to treat necrosis cause by epinephrine at the site of infection?
Phentolamine antagonista competitivo de alpha
What drug is a prodrug that administer norepinephrine and to treat orthostatic hypotension?
Droxidopa
The effect of dopamine at different concentrations.
-Low dose act on D1 causing vasodilation increasing renal blood flow and urine output.
-Intermediate dose acts on D1 and B1 increasing HR and cardiac contractibility
-High dose acts on alpha 1 increasing blood pressure and risk of arrhythmias.
