15
Q

isoproteronol

Uses

A

non selective beta agonists

Treat bronchospasm

Cautions!! Flushing, angina, arrhythmia

16
Q

Dobutamine

Uses

A

Beta_1 selective agonist

Treat cardiac failure

17
Q

albuterol, salmetrol, ritodine

adverse effects

A

beta_2 selective agonists

Albuterol and salmetrol for asthma
Ritodine for premature labor

nervousness, restlessness, no cardiac side effects because there is no much B2 receptors in hearts

18
Q

prazosin

Uses

A

alpha 1 slective adrenergic antagonist

Treat HTN

19
Q

Epinephrine, Norepineprine

adverse effects

A

non selective mixed alpha, beta adrenergic agonist

excess CNS excitation, excess stimulation of cardiovascular system

20
Q

phentolamine

Uses

A

non-selective alpha adrenergic antagonists

Treat HTN

21
Q

yohimbine

Use

A

alpha 2 selective adrenergic antagonist

Erectile dysfunction

22
Q

propanolol

Adverse effects

A

non-selective beta adrenergic antagonist

Bronchoconstriction, decrease cardiac function too much

Cautions!! Don’t prescribe to patient with pulmonary and respiratory conditions

23
Q

metoprolol

Adverse effects

A

Beta 1 selective adrenergic antagonist

Cardiac selective

Not as much as nonselective b antagonist, there is not much b1 receptors in lung

24
Q

2 types of cholinergic stimulants

A
  1. Direct acting - nicotinic and muscarinic

2. Indirect acting - reversible and irreversible

25
Q

Difference between direct and indirect acting cholinergic stimulants

A
