Somatic Nervous system
What are 2 major categories of the PNS?
What is somatic and autonomic nervous system
dantrolene (Dantrium®) is toxic to what body organ?
What is the liver?
"hepatotoxicity"
Beta-1 receptors are found here.
What is the heart?
The definition of Miosis
Constriction of the pupils.
This class of medications can be used to treat shock by increasing BP, improve circulation, and treat nasal congestion.
Alpha-1 Adrenergic agonist
succinylcholine is peripheral muscle relaxants used for:
Intubations
Anesthesia
Ventilation
The medication methocarbamol belongs to this drug class.
Central acting muscle relaxant
Beta-2 receptors are primarily found here.
What is the lungs?
Where are Eccrine and Apocrine glands found?
Eccrine: Non-hairy areas, everywhere
Apocrine: Hairy areas, groin/ axillary
Atropine is what class of medication?
What is anticholinergics
Rocuronium bromide is in what drug class.
What is a peripheral acting muscle relaxant
The antidote for Rocuronium bromide
Neostigmine
Smooth muscles, glands, and internal organs have these receptors in the Sympathetic nervous system
What are Alpha-1 receptors.
This neurotransmitter released in both the sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglia.
What is acetylcholine (ACH)?
Metoprolol is which class of medication?
Beta blocker
The somatic nervous system is Voluntary or involuntary?
Voluntary
This class of medications block conduction within the spinal cord to cause muscle relaxations.
Give a example of one med?
Possible side effects?
What is centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxants.
Examples: Drug examples – cyclobenzaprine, carisoprodol (Soma®), methocarbamol, orphenadrine citrate, chlorzoxazone, metaxalone
During the fight or flight reaction, the adrenal medulla predominately releases this neurotransmitter.
What is epinephrine (adrenaline)
Nicotinic 2 (Nm) receptors are found at this location.
Neuromuscular junction of skeletal muscle
phenylephrine (Neo-Synephrine®) is used for what therapeutic effect?
What is decongestion?
Side effects on central acting muscle relaxants include:
blurred vision,
fatigue
decreased mental alertness
lethargy
dizziness
decreased muscle tone
hypotension
Breakdown the whole nervous system into its parts.
Nervous system
1. Central- Peripheral
2. Somatic- autonomic
3. Sympathetic- parasympathetic
Sympathetic activation produces all of the following effects except:
A. relaxation of urinary bladder
B. increased heart rate
C. pupillary dilation
D. bronchoconstriction
E. constriction of urinary sphincter
What is bronchoconstriction?
This class can assist with decreasing secretions.
What is anticholinergic?
This medication prevents urinary retention and intestinal stasis
bethanechol
