Day 1.2 Pharm Flashcards
1
Q
What is the neurotransmitter for the nicotinic receptor?
A
ACh
2
Q
What drug is a nicotinic receptor antagonist?
A
Hexamethonium
3
Q
What does Hexamethonium block?
A
Nicotinic receptor antagonist- blocks ACh receptors at ALL autonomic ganglion- both sympathetic and parasympathetic
4
Q
If hexamethonium blocks both SNS and PNS, how can you determine how it will affect an organ?
A
How it affects an organ depends on the dominant tone (SNS or PNS) in that organ. e.g. Dominant tone in vessels is SNS, so hexamethonium will act as a symp antagonist to blood vessels- so will decrease BP. (Most organs have dom PNS tone)
5
Q
What is hexamethonium used for clinically?
A
Experimental only - to prevent vagal reflex response to changes in BP; prevents reflex bradycardia caused by NE
6
Q
SNS to sweat glands: Preganglionic neurons go to what kind of receptor? Release which NT?
A
The sympathetic ganglion have a nicotinic receptor. ACh is the NT. All preganglionic neurons go to Nicotinic receptors.
7
Q
SNS to sweat glands: Post-ganglionic neurons go to what kind of receptor? Release which NT?

25
What are the 4 fates of ACh once it's in the synaptic cleft?
1. Bind to the Ach cholinoceptor (either M or N) on the post-syn cell
2. Bind to a pre-synaptic auto-receptor
3. Be degraded (metabolized) by AChE (can block this with anti-AChE - the -stigmines)
4. Diffuse away
26
Noradrenergic Nerve: How is NE produced?
Tyrosine is brought along with Na+ via the Na+ cotransporter. Tyrosine is converted to L-Dopa with the help of Tyrosine Hydroxylase. L-Dopa is converted to Dopamine, and Dopamine is converted to NE. Ca2+ helps release of NE into synaptic cleft.
27
Noradrenergic Nerve: What converts Tyrosine to L-Dopa?
Tyrosine Hydroxylase (imp in biochem!)
28
Noradrenergic Nerve: What drug blocks Tyrosine Hydroxylase? What happens if it's blocked?
Metyrosine. Blocking Tyrosine Hydroxylase means that Tyrosine will not be converted into L-Dopa.
29
Noradrenergic Nerve: What are the two ways for NE to have effects on the pre-synaptic cell once it has been released?
1. Can undergo reuptake
| 2. Can bind to release-modulating receptors (M2, Alpha2, AngII)
30
What are the 4 fates of NE once it has been released into the synaptic cleft?
1. Bind to adrenoceptor (alpha1,2, beta1,2) on post-syn cell
2. Bind to pre-syn autoreceptors (M2, alpha2, AngII)
3. Undergo reuptake
4. Be metabolized by COMT or MAO
31
Noradrenergic Nerve: What are the 3 auto-receptors for NE on the pre-synaptic cell, and what are their effects?
M2: inhibits release of more NE
Alpha2: inhibits release of more NE
Angiontensin II: stimulates release of more NE
32
Noradrenergic Nerve: What are the 3 things that prevent reuptake of NE? What is the effect of preventing reuptake?
Cocaine
TCAs
Amphetamine
When reuptake is inhibited, NE stays in the cleft for longer, so increased HR, BP, euphoria.
33
Noradrenergic Nerve: What drug blocks the conversion of Dopamine to NE?
Reserpine
34
Other than L-Dopa, what is Tyrosine converted to?
Thyroxine (thyroid hormone)
35
Other than Dopamine, what is L-Dopa converted to?
Melanin
36
Noradrenergic Nerve: What 2 drugs inhibit the release of NE into the cleft?

| Bretylium (anti-arrhythmic K+ chnl blocker)
37
Noradrenergic Nerve: What 3 drugs stimulate the release of NE into the cleft?
Amphetamines
Ephedrine (formerly OTC diet drug)
Tyramine
38
How is NE metabolized in the cleft?
Methylated by COMT (catechol-O-methyltransferase)
| or oxidized by MAO (monoamine oxidase)
39
What inhibits MAOs?
MAO-Is. (MAO inhibitors). These are anti-depressants. Work by preventing metabolism of NE.
40
What are the two kinds of anti-depressants that work on NE?
1. MAO-I prevent NE metabolism so more stays in cleft
| 2. TCAs inhibit reuptake so more NE stays in cleft
41
What should you not take if you're on MAO-Is?
Tyramine. Tyramine stim's release of NE into cleft. MAO-I inhibits metabolism of NE. So you have extra NE in cleft, plus you're not metabolizing it - leads to HTN crisis. (MAO-I work in gut, where Tyramine will go if eaten)
42
What are the byproducts of NE breakdown? When are these seen in excess?
VMA, metanephrine, normetanephrine
| Seen in pheochromocytoma, an adrenal tumor that releases excess NE and Epi.

124
What is the drug of choice for aortic dissection? Why?
Beta blockers
They decrease BP, but also decrease the slope of the BP curve- so not only is BP decreased, the rate at which it rises is slower.
125

Aq humor goes from behind iris to in front of iris, to anterior chamber.
Trabecular meshwork absorbs aq humor
Canal of schlemm collects aq humor from trabecular meshwork. Located at point where cornea changes to sclera.
128
What is glaucoma?
Impaired flow of aq humor, leading to increased intraocular pressure, leading to optic disk atrophy with cupping
129
What is open-angle glaucoma? (aka wide angle)
Obstructed outflow (drainage) of aq humor d/t problem with canal of schlemm. Can't absorb/get rid of aq humor, so it builds up.
Common, silent/insidious, painless
assoc w myopia, age >40, black.
130
What is closed-angle glaucoma (narrow angle, acute angle)
Obstruction of flow between the iris and cornea, so aq humor can't go from the post to ant chamber trabecular meshwork to be absorbed. Iris is displaced forward bc of a large pressure build-up behind it.
Painful, emergency. Decreased vision, hard eye, frontal headache.
131
What drugs should you NOT give in acute/narrow/closed angle glaucoma?
Do not give epinephrine or atropine- they cause mydriasis, which makes it worse.
132
What is the cup to disk ratio?
Measurement for progression of glaucoma. Glaucoma has an increased cup:disk ratio, greater than 1:2 is bad. (More cupping is bad)
133

137
What are the beta-blockers used in treatment of glaucoma?
Timolol, betaxolol, carteolol
138
How do timolol, betaxolol, and carteolol help in glaucoma?

139
What diuretics are used to treat glaucoma?
Acetazolamide
| Mannitol
140
How does acetazolamide help in glaucoma?
It decreases aq humor secretion d/t decreased HCO3- bc it's a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor.

```
Direct agonists: pilocarpine, carbachol
Indirect agonists (anti-AChE): physostigmine, echothiophate
```
142

It increases outflow of aq humor
| SEff: brown color of iris, increases eyelash length
145
What are the effects of alpha blockers on a1 and a2 (generally)?
a1 causes vasoconstriction, so if you block it, will get vasodilation.
a2 causes vasodilation, so if you block it, will get vasoconstriction.
146
What are the non-selective alpha blockers?
Phenoxybenzamine (irreversible- so non-competitive inhibitor)
Phentolamine (reversible- so competitive inhibitor)
147
When would you use a non-selective alpha blocker?
```
In pheochromocytoma (adrenal tumor which overproduces epi and NE).
You treat pheo w/ beta blockers, but BEFORE giving beta blockers, give phenoxybenzamine 1st. If you give beta blockers, you will get rid of B2 vasodilation and have unmasked alpha, so increased BP. So give alpha first to prevent this.
```
148
What is the toxicity for non-selective alpha blockers?
Orthostatic HTN and reflex tachycardia
149
What are the a1 selective alpha blockers?
Prazosin, terazosin, doxazosin

a2 blocker used for depression.
SEff: sedation, increased serum cholesterol, increased appetite
Use SEff to advantage: give to elderly depressed pt who is not sleeping or eating well.
154
What happens if a large dose of Epi is given before an alpha blockade?
It vasoconstricts and therefore raises BP
155
What happens if a large dose of Epi is given after an alpha blockade?
BP goes down. There is no longer a1 vasoconstriction, but Epi is still stimulating the B2 receptors to dilate the blood vessels.
156
What effect predominates at LOW doses of Epi?
B2 predominates, so get vasodilation and decreased BP
| At high doses, a1 vasoconstriction predominates
157
What happens if Phenylephrine (a1>a2) is given before alpha blockade?
BP increased d/t a1 vasoconstriction
158
What happens if phenylephrine (a1>a2) is given after alpha blockade?
BP stays the same.
Don't have a1 stimulation, so doesn't raise BP, but since there only effects on alpha and there are no effects on B2, it doesn't lower the BP either.
159
What is tamsulosin?
a1 antagonist- used to treat BPH by inhibiting smooth muscle contraction.
Selective for alpha1-A,D receptors (which are found in prostate in the urethral smooth muscle).
Does not relax the alpha1-B receptors of the vasculature, so will not affect the BP
