Autonomic Nervous System Drugs Flashcards
What are the autonomic nervous system’s two divisions?
Sympathetic division (SNS) and Parasympathetic division (PNS)
It is a neuron that transmits impulses to the brain and spinal cord (CNS). Additionally, it conveys data from sensory receptors to the skin, other organs, and CNS.
Afferent neuron
if you want to, finish the synaptic transmission steps.
1. 2. Synthesis 3. storage 4. Release Then what are the 5, 5a, 5b, and 5c action receptors?
Termination
5a. Reaptic nerve termination
5b. Enzymatic degradation
5c. Diffusion away
It’s a neuron that receives impulses and transmits them through the spinal cord to the effector organ cell. It carries motor information from CNS to the muscle and glands.
Motor neuron
It is a drug that produces a response. For example: If the lock (receptor site) fit the key (drug), it is called?
Agonist
What are the receptor organ cells of the Parasympathetic Nervous System?
Nicotinic, and muscarinic
What are the Sympathetic Nervous System’s four receptor organ cells?
Alpha 1, Alpha 2, Beta 1 and Beta 2
Terminal Neurotransmitter of Sympathetic Nervous System
Norepinephrine
The autonomic nervous system that initiates REST AND DIGEST?
Parasympathetic Nervous System
The autonomic nervous system that initiates FLIGHT OR FIGHT RESPONSE?
Sympathetic Nervous System
Type of ANS that results in constriction of pupils, and bronchioles, Decreases heart rate, Dilates blood vessels and Increases peristalsis and salivation.
Parasympathetic Nervous System
It is a drug that blocks a response.
Antagonist
Type of ANS that results in dilation of pupils and bronchioles, Increase heart rate, Constrict blood vessels, and Relaxes smooth muscles of the GI.
Sympathetic Nervous System
What are Categories based on the Chemical Structure of Sympathomimetics/ adrenergic Agonists?
Catecholamine and Noncatecholamines
What is the Therapeutic use of Epinephrine
For Cardiac Arrest and asthma
