Dilation of pupils |

Minimal peripheral effects Primarily CNS effects Activate presynaptic neurons- reduce sympathetic stimulation of CVS and reduce pain response |
|
Where are adrenergic drugs working |
In peripheral NS not CNS |
|
Beta 1 receptor activation |
Stimulates the heart Cardiac arrest (restart arrested heart, positive inotrope by increasing force contraction, increase conduction of SC block) |
|
Adverse effects of beta 1 activation |
Altered rate or rhythm, angina pectoris, MI by increasing the workload of heart |
|
Beta 2 receptor activation |
Bronchodilation asthma pre term labor Uterine smooth muscle contraction can slow labor |
|
Adverse effects of beta 2 receptor activation |
Tremor- skeletal muscle stimulation Hyperglycemia- promotes breakdown of glycogen to glucose |
|
Dopamine receptor activation peripheral |
Dopamine is only neurotransmitter Peripheral receptors in kidney (dilate renal bv, protect kidney- shock, increase urine output) |
|
Adrenergic agonist- epi |
Everything from anaphlactic shock to nasal decongestant alpha 1 All adrenergic receptors Cardiac, vascular, pulmonary effects Varied concentration and administration routes: IV, SC, topical, inhalation, intracardiac, intraspinal |
|
What intensified the effects of epi |
TriC antidepressants and MAO inhibitors |
|
Epi A 1 |
delay absorption of local anesthetics, control superficial bleeding, reduce nasal congestion, increase BP, and dilate pupils |
|
Epi B 1 |
Cardiac stimulation, overcome AV block, and start a stopped heart |
|
Epi B 2 |
Bronchodilation |
|
Norepinephrine/levophed |
A 1 and B 1 (BP and heart rate) Easily and quickly broken down Only given IV drip no pb Strong A 1 less B 1 Constant monitoring |
|
What is the drug of choice for lie threatening hypotension |
Norepinephrine/levophed |
|
Dobutamine/dobutrex (mule) |
B 1 specific - increase force of heart Positive inotropic effect Improve CO in heart failure Effectiveness of drug needs to be balanced with patients condition (MI may be extended if workload increases) |
|
What prolongs and intensifies the effect of dobutamine |
MAO inhibitors and TriC antidepressants |
|
Dopamine/intropin |
Dose dependant Low doses- increase renal perfusion and urinary output, d-receptors High doses- vasoconstrict A 1, increase HR B 1 (decreases BP bc warm and vessels dilate) Balance with patient status- don't overwork heart, tachydysrythmias, tissue ischwmia, peripheral necrosis |
|
Beta 2 drug |
Albuterol/ventolin |
|
Albuterol/ventolin |
Asthma- mediated bronchodilation Side effect is tremor and tachycardia with large doses that effect B 1 Not beta selective |
|
What is the drug of choice to delay preterm labor |
Terbutalene/brethine |
|
Ephedrine noncatecholimine MOST USED |
Activates A 1 2 and B 1 2 directly Acts directly and increases norepinephrine release Nasal decongestion A 1 but when inhaled there is intense rebound, if taken oral there are a lot of side effects (HTN, dysthymias, angina, hyperglycemia, insomnia) Narcolepsy A 2 receptors to brain |
|
Phenylephrine/neo-synephrine |
A 1 Nasal decongestion- orally and topically, BP side effects, less rebound than ephedrine and epi Parenteral increases BP (post op) |
|
Amphetamines |
Agonist increases symp Increase release and slow reuptake of norepinephrine and dopamine CNS- euphoria PNS-cardiovascular (appetite suppressant, narcolepsy, ADHD) |
|
Amphetamines ephedrine pseudoephedrine |
Nasal congestion, weight loss, cardiac events and stroke (f>m) BANNED in OTC products, used to make meth |
|
