Pharmacology Sympathetic Antagonists MOA Flashcards
Irreversiblyblocks a1 and a2 indirect baroreflex activation
Phenoxybenzamine
Reversibly blocks a1 and a2
Phentolamine
Blocks a1, not a2
Prazosin, doxazosin, terazosin
Slightly selective for a1A
Tamsulosin
Blocks a2
Elicits inc central sympathetic activity
Inc norepinephrine release
Yohimbine

B>a1 block
Labetalol
Block B1 and B2
Propranolol
Nadolol
Timolol
Block B1> B2
Metroprolol Atenolol Alprenolol Betaxolol Nebivolol
Lower HR and BP
Reduce renin
Safer in asthma
Block B1> B2
MAABN Metoprolol Atenolol Alprenolol Betaxolol Nebivolol
Lower HR and BP
Reduce renin
Maybe CI in asthma
Propranolol
Nadolol
Timolol
Lowers BP
HR rises due to baroreflex activation
Phenoxybenzamine
Blocks a-mediated vasoconstriction Lowers BP Inc HR (baroreflex)
Phentolamine
Alpha 1 selective used to lower BP
Prazosin
Doxazosin
Terazosin
Blockade may relax prostatic SM more than vascular SM
Tamsulosin
Lowers BP with limited HR inc
Labetalol
Used for pheochromocytoma and high catecholamine states
Phenoxybenzamine
Used for htn and BPH
Prazosin
Doxazosin
Terazosin
Used for BPH
Tamsulosin
