Adrenergic Pharmacology Flashcards
Which adrenergic receptors do isoprenaline stimulate?
b1 & b2
a1 agonist
Phenylephrine
b2 agonist
Salbutamol
b1 agonist
Dobutamine
Effects of stimulating a1 receptors
- Vasoconstriction 2
- Contraction of dilator muscle of eye & bladder sphincter 2
- Glycogenolysis 1
- Renin unreleased 1
Effect of stimulating a2 receptors
Decreases insulin secretion
Bradycardia
a2 agonist
Clonidine
Effects of stimulating b1 receptors
- Increases cardiac performance
2. Increases renin secretion & thus BP
Effects of stimulating b2 receptors
- Vasodilation of blood vessels of skeletal muscles 1
- Bronchodilation 1
- Increase in secretion of insulin pic 1
- Reduced GI motility pic 2
- Relaxation of SMCs of uterus pic 3
High concentration adrenaline stimulates which receptor?
a receptor
Low concentration adrenaline stimulates which receptor?
b receptor
Low concentration of dopamine stimulates which receptor?
D1 receptor
Moderate concentration of dopamine stimulates which receptor?
b1 receptor
High concentration of dopamine stimulates which receptor?
a1 receptor
Effects of clonidine
- Suppresses sympathetic NS
- Activates parasympathetic NS
- Bradycardia
- Decrease in BP
