adrenergics Flashcards
EPI - MOA
bronchodilator (b2)
EPI - use
anaphylaxis
shock: vasodilate
local anesthetic: vasoconstrict (a1)
EPI - SE
high BP
high HR
hyperthyroidism: upregulate b1
NE - MOA
vasoconstriction (a1)
NE - use
shock
hypotension
decrease renal bloodflow
NE - SE
hyperthyroidism: upregulate b1
DA - dosing/MOA
low: d1 - increase renal bloodflow
med: d1 & b1 - increase BP, CO
high: d1, b1, a1/a2 - vasoconstriction
DA - use
shock
congestive heart failure
DA - SE
arrhythmias
nausea, vomiting (d1)
indirect sympathomimetics - MOA
induce NT release
block NT reuptake
amphetamine - use
ADHD, narcolepsy
cocaine - MOA
block Na+ channels (prevents AP)
cocaine - use
topical anesthesia
tyramine - SE
contraindicated if taking MAO inhibitor - isn’t broken down, replaces NE in nerve terminals, causes fatal HTN
mixed sympathomimetics: ephedrine
weak a1, b agonist
release NE
decongestant
direct a1 agonist
vasoconstriction
constrict sphincter
Milodrine
a1 agonist
prodrug
use: orthostatic hypotension, incontinence
