23
Q

Tacrine

A

AChE inhibitor

24
Q

Atropine*

A

Antimuscarinic compunds

25
Q

nondepolarizing NM blocking agents

A

distribute fast, eliminate slow
poor solubility
competitive antagonists at nAChR

26
Q

how to reverse nondepolarizing NM blocking agents

A

add acetylcholine or succinylcholine
or cholinesterase inhibitors
neostigmine/pyridostigmine - AChE inhibitors that increse release

27
Q

What do you give with AChE inhibitors?

A

Anticholinergic agents - atropine glycopyrrolate

prevent bradycardia, bronchoconstriction

28
Q

AE of nondepolarizing NM blocking agents

A

can cause histamine release - wheals, bronchospasm, hypotension, bronchial/salivary secretion
-less with steroids
CV effects of hypotension and tachycardia

29
Q

What drugs use for rapid sequence intubation

A

succynilcholine, rocuronium, vecuronium

30
Q

What drugs for surgical muscle relaxation

A

pancuronium, atracurium, cisatracurium

31
Q

Drugs for hepatic/renal insufficiency?

A

atracurium, cisatracurium
