Q

<p>DOC for Alpha-1 agonist overdose</p>

Q

<p>drug used for the treatment of orthostatic hypertension</p>

A

<p>Midodrine</p>

52
Q

<p>sympathomimetic avoided in CAD</p>

A

<p><strong>Isoproterenol</strong></p>

<p>*If given to patients with CAD, Isoproterenol won’t induce a compensatory baroreceptor mediated reflex slowing of the HR (because mean arterial pressure is not increased which is a trigger for reflex bradycardia to occur). Therefore, tachycardia in the setting of a CAD patient will worsen the existing coronary problem of the patient</p>
