what is the prototype muscarinic antagonist
atropine
what is the antidote to muscarinic antagonists or anticholinergic blockade
physostigmine
what is atropine used for
preop
myriasis ete surgery
bradycardia
intestinal hyertonicity and hypermobility
muscarinic agonist poisoning



what is the antodote for muscarinic agonists or cholinergics
atropine
what is the prototye muscarinic agonist
bethanacol
what is bethanacol used for
to treat urinary retention
what are the primary uses of muscarinic agonists
GU and GI- primary indication is urinary retention;
also GI disorders involvong bowel paralysis
what is the most effective antidote to muscarinic poisoning
physostigmine (a cholinesterase inhibitor)
muscarinic agonists -how given
and why
PO give by mouth only IV or IM can cause circulatory colapse
AE of muscarinic agonists
Cv-orthostatic hypotension
GI-excessive gastric activity-salivation, diarrhea, gastric acid secretion
Resp- increases secretions and cause bronchospam
eyes-blurs vision


prototype reversible cholinesterae inhibitor
neostigmine
primary use of neostigmine
MG
what is the symptoms of reversible cholinesterase inhibitor OD
cholinergic crisis

muscarinic plus NM blockade

what is the drug of choice for a cholinergic crisis
atropine and mechanical ventialtion and O2
How is physostigmine different from neostigmine
it is not polar so it readily crosses cell membranes

irreversible cholinesterase inhibitors
Inectisides

only one indication is glaucoma

what are the most beneficial responses to alpha blockers the result of
blockade of a1 receptors on blood vessels which cause vasocnstriction
primary use of alpha blockers
BPH causes smooth muscles of the prostrate to relax
3 characteristics of catecholamines
cant be used orally
breif duration of action
cant cross the blood brain barrier

can catecholamines cross the blood brain barrier
no because they are polar molecules
what are the noncatecholamines and can they be given orally
ephedrine, phenylephrine and terbutaline
A1 therapeutic uses
hemostasis
mydriasis
What happens when you activate muscarinic receptors
eye-miosis and near vision
heart-decreases rate
lungs-promotes bronchocnstriction and secretion
Blood vessels-dilates
bladder-contracts, voids
GI-increase tone, motility, secretions, defecation
sex organs-erection
sweat glands






Why give dopamine
shock
improves cv performance
dilates renal blood vessels

therpaeutic uses of epinephrine
1. vasoconstriction-hemostasis, inc BP, delay absorption of anesthetics
2. eye-mydriasis
3. heart-overcome AV block, restore function in cardiac arrest
4.lung-bronchodilation
5. tx of choice for anaphylaxis



AE of epinephine
hypertensive crisis
dysrythmias
angina
necrosis
hyperglycemia



uses of ne and how is it different from epi
hypotension and cardiac arrest
does not activate beta2 receptors so does not cause hyperglycemia in DM
isoproterenol (isuprel)
where does it act?
therapeutic uses

only at beta receptors
1. CV-overcome Av block, restart heart, incr CO in shock
2. asthma-causes bronchodilation but use has been abandoned bc we have more b2 selective drugs
3. bronchospasm-during anesthetia


AE of Isoproterenol
tachydysrythmia
hyperglycemia
angina

MAO inhibitors
intensify the effects of dopamine, isoproterenol, epi
Dobutamine
beta1 selective
only use is heart failure
phenylephrine
what type?
uses?

noncatecholamine
nasal decongestion
increase BP
dilate pupil


terbutaline (Brethine)
uses
adverse effects

1.asthma by producing broncholdialtion via b2
selective for beta 2 receptors
2. preterm labor-relaxes uterine smooth muscle
AE if given in large enough doses can activate b1>tachycardia and
tremor is most common



ephedrine
activates?


a1a2b1b2
limited use because direct and indirect and non selective
is noncatecholamine so can cross the BB barrier

what does activation of Nm receptors do
contracts sketelal muscle
what does activation of Nn receptors do
promotes ganglioni transmission at all ganlia in PSNS and SNS and promotes release of epi from adrenal medulla
Effects of B1 activation



heart-increases force of contraction, velocity of conduction through AV node, HR

kidney-renin-vasocnstrict-incr BP

muscarinic activation
miosis and near vision
urination
slows heart rate
constricts bronchi, GI smooth muscle
erection
vasodilation
sweating, secretions





alpha 1
dilates pupil
ejaculation
contracts prostrate and bladder
vasoconstriction


contraindications to muscarinic agonists and cholinesterase inhibitors
1. PUD
2. Asthma
3. GU GI obstruction
4. coronary insufficiency
5. hyperthyroidism



antidote for irreversible cholinesterase inhibiors (organophosphates)
pralidoxamine(cant cross BB barrier)

also atropine
mechanical ventilation
diazepam



DOC for atropine and other muscarinic antagonists OD
physostigmine--readily crosses mebranes and is a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor
therapeutic goals of cholinesterase inhibitors
myasthenia gravis
glaucoma
alzheimers
reverse NDNM


reversible cholinsterase inhibitors
neostigmine
physostgmine
donazepil
edrophonium
pyridostigmine



NMBA action
prevent acetylcholine from activating nicotinicM receptors on skeletal muscles causing muscle relaxation
ganglionic blocking agent
mecalymine

resembles effect of muscarinic antagonists(dry mouth, blurred vision, anhydrosis, constipation, urinary retention, tachycardia, photophobia) plus orhtostatic hypotension

anticholinergic or muscarinic antagonists side effects
dry mouth
constipation
urinary retention
photophobia
blurred vision
tachycardia
anydrosis





depolarizing NMB prototype
succinocholine

***has no antidote*****

non depolarizing NMB protype
tubocurare

also ium drugs

AE succinylcholine
malignant hyperthermia
hyperkalemia
prolonged apnea

succinocholine vs NDNMB
1. very short duration; abates more rapidly than NDNMB
2. flaccid paralysis but with transient contractions proceeding it
antidote to succinylchoine OD
THERE IS NONE!!!
FUNCTIONS OF THE PARASYMPATHETIC ns
1. EMPTY BLADDER
2. EMPTY BOWEL
3. DECREASE HEART RATE
4.CONSTRICT PUPIL
5. CONSTRICT BRONCHIALS
6. INCREASE GASTrIC SECRETIONS
7. NEAR VISION FOCUS
