Exam 1 Drugs Flashcards
Sympatholytic agents
Interfere with sympathetic control of blood pressure (decreases CCA release) CNS Arterioles A1 Venules A1 Heart B1 JGA B1
Vasodilators
Relax arterial vascular smooth muscle Target arterioles (can also relax veins)
Vasopeptidase Inhibitors
Inhibit angiotensin 2 formation (or receptor actions)
Inhibit metabolism of endogenous vasodilator and natriuretic peptides (stop breakdown of bradykinin and NP)
Diuretics
Inhibit renal absorption of sodium and water
promote Na excretion and water removal
A1
on blood vessels (constriction)
A2
Sympathetic nerves (decrease NE)
B1
heart (increase HR, increase contractility)
JGA (increase renin)
B2
Blood vessels (relax)
Clonidine
A2 adrenoceptor agonist in CNS and periphery
Sympatholytic centrally acting
Methyldopa
A2 adrenoceptor agonist in CNS
Sympatholytic centrally acting
Moxonidine,
Rilmenidine
Imidazoline I1 agonist in CNS
A2 adrenoceptor agonist in CNS and periphery
Sympatholytic centrally acting
Reserpine
Inhibits VMAT2
Decreases uptake of NE, DA, 5HT so they get degraded
Sympatholytic Adrenergic neuron-blocking
Prazosin,
Terazosin,
Doxazosin,
Trimazosin
Blocks vasoconstrictor effects of CCA on arterioles and veins
Sympatholytic A1 adrenoceptor antagonists
-olol
Block B receptors (selective vs nonselective)
