94
ChEI effects ardiovascular
increase both sympathetic and parasympathetic, but parasympathetic predmonate so decrease in heart rate. Increase in vascular tone from sympathetics (quaternary agents at autonomic ganglia and lipid soluble at central sympathetic centers). Net: moderate dose modest bradycardia and increased vascular tone=increased BP. High dose: bradycardia and hypotension.
95
ChEI effects at NMJ
Low dose=therapeutic. intensifies actions of ACh increases muscle weakness from curare or myosthenia gravis high: antidromic firing back into the axon causing fasiculations. Depolarizing muscular blockade followed by nondepolarizing.
96
Side effects ChEI
muscarinic side effects predominate early. Convulsions coma, followed by peripheral nicotinic effects (depolarizing neuromusclar blockade))
97
Pralidoximine
regenerates ChE. Not effective at doing CNS, b/c it is quaternary. Nor recommended for reversal of inhibition form carbamate inhibitors. pretty much any oximine will work as long as the phosphorous hasn't aged.
