Adrenoceptor agonist Flashcards
Adrenoceptor agonist
drugs that binds with adrenoceprtor receptors and causes physiological changes
adrenoceptor receptors are
alpha and Beta
alpha1 and 2
beta 1 and 2
alpha 1
contraction of smooth muscle/exocrine gland/neuronal excitation
alpha 2
inhibits NE release
CNS effect
Beta 1
increase renin secretion
increase HR
increase contractility and conduction
Beta 2
bronchodialation
relaxation of smooth muscle
glycogenolysis
