Autonomic Nervous System drugs Flashcards
Our nervous system is divided into two parts, which are:
CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
Peripheral nervous system is divided into two parts, which are:
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
it is a type of neurons that sends impulses to the CNS.
AFFERENT
It is a type of neuron that receives impulses and transmit through the spinal cord to effectors organ cells.
EFFERENT
What do you call the type of Peripheral NS that is involuntary which controls and regulates the heart, GI, respiratory systems, bladder, eyes and glands?
AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
What do you call the type of Peripheral NS that is voluntary and innervates the skeletal muscles?
SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM
The Autonomic Nervous System have two types, which are:
SYMPATHETIC (ADRENERGIC)
PARASYMPATHETIC (CHOLINERGIC)
What do you call the receptor organ cells of Sympathetic NS?
ALPHA (1,2)
BETA (1,2)
What do you call the receptor organ cells of Parasympathetic NS?
NICOTINIC
MUSCARINIC
Under Sympathetic NS, these things happen:
DILATES PUPILS
DILATES BRONCHIOLES
INCREASES HEART RATE
CONSTRICT BLOOD VESSELS
RELAXES SMOOTH MUSCLES OF THE GI
RELAXES UTERINE MUSCLES
Under Parasympathetic NS, these things happen:
CONSTRICT PUILS
CONSTRICT BRONCHIOLES (INCREASES SECRETION)
DECREASES HEART RATE
DILATES BLOOD VESSELS
INCREASES PERISTALSIS
INCREASE SALIVATION
It is a theory wherein the drug act though receptors and it binds to the receptors to start or prevent a response.
RECEPTOR THEORY
What do you call a drug that produces a response?
AGONIST
What do you call a drug that prohibited or block a response?
ANTAGONIST
Acetylcholine (ACH) is made up of?
CHOLINE AND ACETYL COA
