A

-Foods that contain Tyramine

29
Q

What can increase Tyramine do?

Q

What do you use non-selective alpha antagonists for?

A
  • Treat pheochromocytoma

- Hypertensive emergencies

33
Q

What are the effects of non-selective alpha antagonists?

A
  • Decreased TPR (alpha 1) and thus decreased BP

34
Q

What are alpha 1 antagonists?

A
  • Prazosin

35
Q

What are the effects of alpha 1 antagonists?

A

-Vasodilation (not really because they just stop vasoconstriction) causes a decrease in TPR and BP
