Bethanechol MOA

Activates bowel and bladder smoothmuscle; resistant to AChE. "Bethany, call(bethanechol) me, maybe, if you want toactivate your bowels and bladder

CarbacholMOA

Carbon copy of acetylcholine

PilocarpineMOA

Contracts ciliary muscle of eye (open-angleglaucoma), pupillary sphincter (closed-angleglaucoma); resistant to AChE. "You cry, drool,and sweat on your 'pilow.'

MethacholineMOA

Stimulates muscarinic receptors in airway wheninhaled.

Neostigmine MOA

t endogenous ACh.Neo CNS =No CNS penetration.

PyridostigmineMOA

t endogenous ACh; t strength. Pyridostigminegets rid of myasthenia gravis.

EdrophoniumMOA

t endogenous ACh.

PhysostigmineMOA

t endogenous ACh. Physostigmine "phyxes"atropine overdose.

DonepezilMOA

t endogenous ACh.

organophosphate poisoning (e.g. from insecticides)

Diarrhea, Urination, Miosis,Bronchospasm, Bradycardia, Excitationof skeletal muscle and CNS, Lacrimation,Sweating, and Salivation.

antidote for organophosphate poisoning

Antidote - atropine+ pralicloxime

what is atropine + pralicloxime an antidote for?

organophophate poisoning

Bethanechol Uses

Postoperative ileus, neurogenic ileus, andurinary retention

Carbachol use

Glaucoma, pupillary contraction, and relief ofintraocular pressure

Pilocarpine clinical application

Potent stimulator of sweat, tears, and salivaOpen-angle and closed-angle glaucoma

Methacholine use

Challenge test for diagnosis of asthma

Neostigmine use

Postoperative and neurogenic ileus andurinary retention, myasthenia gravis,reversal of neuromuscular junction blockade(postoperative)

Pyridostigmine use

Myasthenia gravis (long acting); does notpenetrate CNS

Edrophonium use

Diagnosis of myasthenia gravis (extremely shortacting)

Physostigmine use

Anticholinergic toxicity (crosses blood-brainbarrier -> CNS)

Donepezil use

Alzheimer's disease

Atropine, homatropine, tropicamide, cyclopentolate

musc. antag Eye




Produce mydriasis (dilated pupil) and cycloplegia (paralysis of the ciliary muscle therefore long sighted)

Benztropine

musc. antag CNS




Parkinson's disease- "Park my Benz"

Scopolamine

musc. antag CNS




Motion sickness

lpratropium, tiotropium

musc. antag Respiratory




COPD, asthma ("' pray I can breathe soon!")

Oxybutynin

musc. antag Genitourinary




Reduce urgency in mild cystitis and reducebladder spasms

Glycopyrrolate

musc. antag, Gastrointestinal, respiratory




Parenteral: preoperative use to reduce airwaysecretions




Oral: drooling, peptic ulcer

Side effects of Atropine

inc. body temperature (due to dec. sweating);rapid pulse; dry mouth; dry, flushed skin;cycloplegia; constipation; disorientation. Can cause acute angle-closure glaucoma inelderly (clue to mydriasis), urinary retentionin men with prostatic hyperplasia, andhyperthermia in infants.

Albuterol, salmeterol, terbutalinerec. activity

Mostly B2, some effect on B1

Albuterol, salmeterol, terbutalineapplications

Metaproterenol and albuterol for acute asthma; salmeterol for long-term asthma or COPDcontrol; terbutaline to reduce prematureuterine contractions
