Non-selective Agonists
The primary drug of choice for treating anaphylactic shock.
What is Epinephrine
This alpha1 agonist is used for nasal congestion and SVT.
What is Phenylephrine
This drug blocks the reuptake of NE and Dopamine.
What is Cocaine
Stimulation of the alpha1 receptor in the eye causes this reaction in the eye.
What is mydriasis
Epinephrine dosage must be lowered in patients with this endocrine condition.
What is Hyperthyroidism
This drug stimulates beta1 and beta2 and is used for pediatric bradycardia.
What is Isopoterenol
A short-acting beta2 agonist used for acute asthma.
What is Albuterol
This OTC nasal decongestant is also used in the production of methamphetamine.
What is Pseudoephedrine
Stimulation of beta2 receptors in the lungs results in this action.
What is Bronchodilation
This drug is a meth precursor and herbal "energy booster" that may cause hypertension.
What is Pseudoephedrine
This drug causes reflex bradycardia and is the 1st line choice for septic shock.
What is Norepinephrine
A long-acting beta2 agonist used for asthma management.
What is Salmeterol
This endogenous neurotransmitter is the precursor to Norepinephrine.
What is Dopamine
At low doses, Dopamine improves perfusion by acting on these blood vessels.
What is Renal
Cocaine is contraindicated in patients with these two cardiac conditions.
This nonselective agonist stimulates alpha1, alpha2, beta1 and beta2 receptors.
What is epinephrine
This selective beta1 agonist increases cardiac output in acute heart failure.
What is Dobutamine
This alpha2 agonist is used to treat withdrawal symptoms and ADHD
What is Clonidine
These are the two primary variables that increase when beta1 is stimulated.
What is Heart rate and Cardiac Output
This is the specific "dangerous reflex" mentioned when using Norepinephrine.
What is Reflex Bradycardia
Stimulation of this specific receptor in the heart increases HR and CO.
Beta1
The brand name for Clonidine
This mixed-acting agent has a longer duration of action than Epinephrine.
Stimulation of beta2 receptors in the liver leads to this metabolic effect.
What is Glycogenolysis
These are the five listed contraindications for using Ephedrine.
What is HTN/Tachycardia, Hyperthyroid, DM, CVD, Pregnancy
