Describe direct acting cholinergic agonists
Examples: ACH, Betanachol, carbachol, pilocarpine
MOA: Mimic ACH by binding directly to cholinoreceptor
PSNS stimulation; miosis, redness, decreases blood pressure
Indications: Urinary retention, Megacolon, Atonic bladder –> Bethanechol
Treatment glaucoma, optic nerve neuropathy d/t increase of intraocular pressure- > pilocarpine
Sjogren syndrome-> Pilocarpine
S/E: DIARRHEA URINATION MIOSIS/MUSCLE WEAKNESS BRONCHORREA EMESIS LACRIMATION SWEATING
INDIRECT ACTING CHOLINERGIC AGONIST: Reversible
Examples: Edrophonium, neostigmine, physostigmine
MOA: ache inhibitors block ash esterase to stop to from cleaving ACH. act then accumulates in the synaptic cleft.
Indications: Dx of myasthenia graves
INDIRECT ACTING CHOLINERGIC AGONIST: Reversible
Examples: Edrophonium, neostigmine, physostigmine
MOA: ache inhibitors block ash esterase to stop to from cleaving ACH. act then accumulates in the synaptic cleft.
Indications: Dx of myasthenia gravis (when antibodies attack the NMJ receptors causing muscle weakness) –> Edrophonium
tx of myasthenia gravis—> Physostigmine
Alzheimers—-> Tacrine, Donezipil, Rivastigmine, Glutamine
Glaucoma—-> Pilocarpine
S/Es: Nausea, Abdominal pain, decrease blood pressure, Redness/ Flushing, Bronchospam) cholinergic stimuLATION
Diarrhea, GI distress
C/I: Peritonitis, IBD
*Atropine is given in a cholinergic crisis
Indirect acting cholinergic agonist: Irreversible
Example: Ecothiophate (Short Acting)
MOA: Covalently binds to ACHe–> Longer half life–> choline
Indications: Glaucome (Not 1st line)
Long DOA–> 3 weeks
Side Effects: Nausea, abdominal pain, decrease in BP, Redness/ flushing, diarrhoea, GI DISTRESS*
AntiMuscarinic / Cholinergic Antagonist
MOA: Blocks cholinorecptors—> Antimuscarinic effect
Indications: Cholinergic Reactions Parkinsons organophosphate poisoning (Atropine) COPD (Ipatropium) Scopolamine is used for amnesia in OBGYN along with morphine
Atropine and tropicamide–> PSNS Antagonist
Characterise a atropine overdose
Dilation—> Blurred vision
Tachyarrythmia
Red b/c pix won’t sweat
Temp increase making them red
What medication is taken in the case of a atropine overdose?
Take reversible acting cholinergic agonist
Such as Edrophonium, Neostigmine, Physostigmine
Can acetylcholine be used as a drug?
No it cleaved by ACHe too fast
Symptoms of cholinergic drug overdose
Nausea, Vomiting, Flushing, Pupil constriction/ miosis, Diarrhea
Antidote for cholinergic overdose
atropine
symptoms of atropine poisoning
constipation, dry mouth, urinary retention, pupil dilation, myodriasis, Dry/ sandy eyes
Antidote for atropine poisoning
Physostigmine
Alpha 1 agonist
MOA
USE
SIDE EFFECTS
MOA: Stimulates vasoconstriction and may increase BP
Use: Cardiogenic shock( hypotensive state), septic shock, CHF
Side Effect: Orthostatic hypotension, tacharrythmias
