1
Q
define the function of NICOTNIC MUSCULAR ANTAGONISTS
A
inhibit the binding of Nicotinic Muscular Antagonists. highly ionized and do not readily cross the blood brain barrier
2
Q
Main effect of NICOTINIC MUSCULAR ANTAGONISTS
A
Paralysis - useful during major surgeries
3
Q
Depolarizing Blocker function and drug
A
SUCCINYLCHOLINE
(binds to the NM receptor but promotes depolarization. Longer activation of NM receptor could desensitized which eventually incapable of mediating muscle contraction)
4
Q
Nondepolarizing Blockers function
A
antagonizes the Nm receptor to promote paralysis
5
Q
Nondepolarizing Blocker drugs
A
-curarine, -curium, -curonium Tubocurarine Atracurium Doxacurium Metocurine Mivacurium Pancuronium Rocuronium Vecoronium
6
Q
MOST COMMON COMPLAINT OF NICOTNIC MUSCULAR ANTAGONISTS
A
Muscle pain/mylagia especially with succinylcholine
7
Q
Succinylcholine when combined with HALOTHANE
A
Arrythmia
