Q

contraindications for epinephrine

A
HTN
shock
hyperthyroid
angina pectoris
asthmatics with degenerative heart disease
29
Q

vasculature alpha vs. beta

A

beta 2 - relax

alpha 1 - constrict

30
Q

beta receptor antagonists in eye

A

decrease aqueous humor production

31
Q

alpha receptor agonists in eye

A

mydriasis

also - increase aqueous humor outflow

32
Q

CV and epinephrine

A

beta1, beta2, alpha effects

increased systolic (beta1)

decreased TPR and decreased diastolic (beta2 skeletal m. dilation overcomes alpha1 constriction)

33
Q

CV and norepinephrine

A

beta1, alpha effects

no beta2**

increased TPR and diastolic (no beta2 on skeletal m. dilation, only alpha1 constriction effects)

increased systolic BP and MAP

stimulant on rate, but overcome by reflex baroreceptor vagal output

34
Q

CV and isoproterenol

A

beta1, beta 2 effects

no alpha**

increased HR and force of contraction (beta1)

decreased TPR (beta2 in skeletal m vasodilation)

increased systolic
decreased diastolic

35
Q

dopamine

A

beta1 agonist
D1 agonist

high dose - alpha1 agonist
-will override dopaminergic effects

36
Q

effect of dopamine

A

increased HR and contractility - beta1

increased blood flow in renal, coronary, splanchnic - D1

37
Q

higher dose of dopamine

A

alpha1 receptor activation

-overcomes vasodilatory effects

38
Q

femoldopam

A

D1 agonist

Tx for hypertension

39
Q

bromocroptine

A

D2 agonist

Tx for parkinsons or prolactinemia

40
Q

dobutamine

A

beta1 agonist

weak increase in contractility and HR

41
Q

clinical use of dobutamine

A

increased CO in patients with cardiogenic shock with decreased occurence of arrythmia

42
Q

phenylephrine

A

alpha-1 agonists

vascular constriction

  • reflex bradycardia
  • can be blocked with atropine
43
Q

methoxamine

A

alpha 1 agonist

similar to phenylephrine

44
Q

midodrine

A

alpha 1 agonist

Tx for disabling orthostatic hyoptension

45
Q

beta 2 agonists

A

10x greater selectivity for beta2 than beta1

so beta1 can be stimulated at high dose

46
Q

albuterol

A

beta 2 agonist

for bronchial asthma

47
Q

salmeterol

A

beta 2 agonist

long lasting

nighttime asthma

48
Q

formoterol

A

beta 2 agonist

same as salmeterol

long acting

49
Q

metaproterenol

A

beta 2 agonist

relax bronchial smooth muscle

side effects: nervous, weak, palpitations, N/V

50
Q

terbutaline

A

beta 2 agonist

used orally and as aerosol

51
Q

ritodrine

A

beta 2 agonist

for delayed delivery

52
Q

amphetamines

A

release NE from adrenergic nerve ending AND inhibit NE reuptake

CNS stimulant

53
Q

adderall

A

amphetamine

for ADHD

54
Q

dexedrine

A

amphetamine

55
Q

benzedrine

A

amphetamine

A

amphetamine

57
Q

Tx for obesity

A

amphetamine

58
Q

Tx for ADHD

A

amphetamine

59
Q

amphetamine poisoning
