Adrenergic drug names Flashcards
Direct acting adrenomimetics
– Alpha agonists
• Phenylephrine
• Clonidine
– Mixed alpha and beta agonists
• Norepinephrine
• Epinephrine
– Beta agonists • Dobutamine • Isoproterenol • Terbutaline • Albuterol
– Dopamine agonists
• Dopamine
• Fenoldopam
Indirect adrenomimetics
– Inhibits re-uptake of DA and NE
• Cocaine
– Inhibitors of MAO
• Selegiline
• Phenelzine
– Reverse NE and DA uptake mechanism and increase their release
• Amphetamines
• Methylphenidate
• Tyramine (a byproduct of tyrosine metabolism, not a drug)
– Releasing agent AND direct adrenergic receptor agonist
• Ephedrine
