This class of drugs mimic the neurotransmitter epinephrine and norepinephrine
what are adrenergic agonists?
this receptor increases HR, and force of contraction, increases renin
what is beta 1 receptor?
this beta blocker decreases effectiveness with NSAIDS
what is atenolol?
the antidote for cholinergic agonists
what is atropine?
what is glaucoma, myasthenia gravis, tartive dyskinesia, alcoholism
This receptor increases the force of contractions, vasoconstriction (to increase BP), mydriasis, and bladder relaxation
what is the alpha 1 receptor?
this receptor dilates bronchioles, decreases GI motility, and increases blood sugar
this class produces side effects of dizziness, weakness, HA
what are beta blockers - Atenolol
will not give this class if the patient has a history of asthma, GI/GU obstruction, hypotension/bradycardia
what are cholinergic agonists?
atropine is in this class of medications
what are anticholinergics?
this receptor dilates vessels (decreases BP), decreases GI motility
what is alpha 2 receptor?
nonselective meBP, increases HR, and bronchodilates
what is epinephrine?
the neurotransmitter is acetylcholine, the system is...
what is the parasympathetic/ cholinergic (agonist)
the cholinergic agonist pilocarpine is used for
what is glaucoma?
it is used as a pre-op med, it increases HR, dilates pupils, reverses neuromuscular blockades
what is atropine?
inject outer thigh, hold on leg for a few seconds
what is epi pen?
this class decreases HR, reduces force of contraction
what are beta 1 blockers?
this system decreases HR, decreases BP (vasodilation) increases GI motility, contracts bladder muscle (makes you pee), miosis, increases salivation/perspiration
what is parasympathetic system
cholinergic agonists
this system has similar responses as the adrenergic agonists
what is anticholinergic?
this side effect of carbidopa-levodopa relates to safety
what is orthostatic hypotension?
this class produces vasodilation, decreased BP, reduces contraction of smooth muscle in bladder/prostate
what are the alpha 1 blockers?
this class constricts bronchioles and decreases blood sugar
what are beta 2 blockers?
this cholinergic agonist is used for urinary retention
what is bethanechol?
the anticholinergic benztropine is used for Parkinson's disease because
what is decreased tremors/involuntary movements?
the COMPT inhibitor tolcopone is not given if the patient has:
what is liver dysfunction / glaucoma?
