The partial agonist acts on the same receptor system as the full agonist but cannot produce an equivalently large effect (it has lower maximal efficacy) no matter how much the dose is increased. A partial agonist may be more potent (as in the figure), less potent, or equally potent; potency is an indipendant factor

A

Phenoxybenzamine (irreversible) and pentolamine (reversable)

101
Q

This α1 selective blocker is used for hypertension, urinary retension in BPH. Toxicities include 1st dose orthostatic hypotension, idzziness, headache.

103
Q

image. p. 204- effects of α-blockers on blood pressure responses to epi and phenylephrine.

A

the peinephrine response exhibits a reversal of the mean BP change, from a net increase (the α response) to a net decrease (the B2 response). The response to phenylephrine is supressed but not reversed because the phenylephrine is a “pure” α agonist w/out B action
