21
Q

Acting on the adrenergic receptors of the target organs

A

22
Q

Acting as a powerful postsynaptic causing vasoconstriction and raising systolic and diastolic

A

A

Beta-specific adrenergic agonists

25
Q

Another term for adrenergic antagonists

A

Sympatholytics

26
Q

They lyse, or block, the effects of the sympathetic nervous system

A

Adrenergic antagonist

27
Q

Adrenergic antagonists have classification

A

Non-selective adrenergic antagonist
Non-selective alpha adrenergic antagonist
Non-selective beta adrenergic antagonist
Selective alpha adrenergic antagonist
Selective beta adrenergic antagonist

28
Q

Antagonist used to treat cardiac related condition

A

Non-selective adrenergic antagonist

29
Q

Used to treat CV and to prevent infarction after MI

A

Non-selective beta adrenergic antagonist

30
Q

Can improve urine flow in male patients
