Q

Nicotine, Hexamethonium, Tubocurarine

A

Ganglionic blockers ( Nn-R)

17
Q

Nicotine, Hexamethonium, Tubocurarine
MOA

A

Causes stimulation then paralysis of all ganglia

18
Q

Succinylcholine

A

Neuromuscular Blocking Drug - Depolarizing Agonist

19
Q

Succinylcholine MOA

A

Acts like Ach (longer action) ; depolarization , transient fasciculations , flaccid paralysis , repolarization , desensitized receptors.

20
Q

Succinylcholine Uses

A

Endotracheal intubation (muscle relaxation)

21
Q

Succinylcholine Adverse Effects

A

Hyperthermia (halothane) , apnea (AchE def.) , hyperkalemia (burn)

22
Q

Diazepam & Dantrolene

A

Neuromuscular Blocking Drugs (muscle relaxants)

23
Q

Tubocurarine/Pancuronium

A

Non-Depolarizing Antagonists (Competitive)

24
Q

Non-Depolarizing Antagonists MOA

A

Act on Nm to prevent binding of ACh : inhibit depolarization & contraction (use neostigmine to counteract this effect)

25
Q

Mivacurium, Atracurium

A

Non-Depolarizing Antagonists

26
Q

Mivacurium, Atracurium Adverse

A

release histamine = fall in BP , flushing , bronchoconstriction

27
Q

Non-Depolarizing Antagonists Uses
