Exam 1 Flashcards
Primary receptor of parasympathetic
Cholinergic
Primary neurotransmitter of parasympathetic
Acetylcholine
Primary receptor of sympathetic
Adrenergic
Primary neurotransmitter of sympathetic
Norepinephrine
Direct acting cholinergic agonist
Bethanechol; activates cholinergic receptors causing bladder muscle relaxation
Bethanechol SE/AE
tachycardia and hypotension
Prototype anticholinergic
Atropine; blocks cholinerguc effects
Reversal of atropine
Physostigmine; patenteral only
Acetylcholinesterase inhibitors
Donepezil and Galantamine; inhibits acetylcholinesterase from destroying acetylcholine
Alpha one adrenergic antagonist
Doxazosin, prazosin, tamsulosin, alfazosin
Alpha blockers SE/AE
Orthostatic hypotension, reflex taxhycardia, sexual dusfunction
Drug used for extravasation and diagnosing a pheochromocytome
Phentolamine
Beta adrenergic anatagonists
Propanolol, metoprolol, labetalol; blocks beta one receptors, reducing cardiac chronotropy and inotropy
Beta blocker SE/AE
Fatigue, bradycardia, and hypoglycemia
Indication of Alpha blockers
BPH and HTN
Indications of Beta blockers
Angina, HTN, HF, Dysrthmias, migraines prevention, anxiety
What to assess prior adminestering beta blocker
HR and BP
Stimulates aloha one adrenergic receptors resulting in vasoconstriction
Phenylephrine
Indications of pheynleprhine
Shock, hypotension
Increases two adrenergic effects and reducing symphatetic effects
Clonidine
Indication of clonidine
HTN
Beta one adrenergic agonist that increased cardiac chronotropy and inotropy effects
Dobutamine and isoproterenol
Indication of dobutamine and isoproterenol
Acute decompensated HF; IV only
Beta two adrenergic agonist resulting in bronchodilation
Albuterol
Beta 3 adrenergic agonist resulting in detrusor smooth muscle relation increasing bladder capacity
Mirabegron
SE/AE of mirabegron
Angioedema, HTN, tachy, urinary retention
First line for alzheimer’s disease
Donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine
Second line for alzheimer
Anti-anxiety
