what drug has the fastest onset of mydriasis
tropicamide
which are the synthetic choline esters
methacholine (mechlyl) (provocholine)
carbacholine
bethanechol (urecholine)
what is a muscarinic alkaloids
pilocarpine
what is another name for pilocarpine and what is its use
salagen in tablet form, used to treat Sjogren's disease
what is the use for urecholine
use to stimulate bladder contractibility
usage for pilocarpine
used for glc 15yr ago
contract ciliary muscle, open trab meshwork, IOP down
side effects for pilocarpine
night blindness, constantly pupil contracted, cant see in distance
reversible, tertiary inhibitors for cholinesterase inhibitors
physostigmine
donepezil (alzheimer)
reversible quaternary cholinesterase inhibitors
neostigmine
edrophonium
what is the use of neostigmine
treat m. gravis. also used for post surgery to counteract the muscle relaxant given before surgery
what is the use of edrophonuim
a diagnostic for m. gravis
could be used to counter muscle stimulant after surgery
used too much then get muscarinic side effects, need to counter balance with anti-cholinergic
what anti-cholinergic would u used with edrophonuim
atropine
what anti-cholinergic would u use with neostigmine
glycopyrrolate
muscarinic antogonist, tertiary alkaloids
belladonna, atropine
scopolamine
muscarinic antagonists, tertiary amines (synthetic)
benztropine
oxybutynin
use of benztropine
for parkinson's disease, disease could be due to too much ach in the brain, this can decrease amount
consist of half benydrl and half atropine
use of oxybutynin
decrease urinary tract spasm
use of scopolamine
only if allergic to atropine
use for motion sickness, nausea
drug of choice for bradycardia
atropine
heart is slow, what drug would i use, a adrenergic stimulant or a muscarinic antagonist?
muscarinic antagonist because want to take off the breaks of the vagas, so let the heart speed up on its own
if the other way, then would create more stress on the heart
patient has m. gravis, drug of choice and procedure to see if need higher dosage
treat with neostigmine, diagnose with edrophonium, if can sqeeze harder then increase dosage, of same, then same dose, if weaker then decrease dosage
what three sites can a choliesterase blocker have an effect on?
myoneural junction
muscarinic site, nicotinic site
which site would have an effect if its low dose of cholinesterase inhibitor? higher dose?
low dose would be at the myoneural
higher dose would be that the muscarinic sites
irreversible, tertiary inhibitors for cholinesterate inhibitors
taban, sarin, soman--> nerve gas
parathione --> insecticide
malathione --> lice
irreversible, quaternary inhibitors
for cholinesterase inhibitors
echothiophate
esterase reactivators
2-pam (protopam)
drug to treat malignant hyperthermia
dantrolene
three factors that cause malignant hyperthermia
1. use of succinyl choline
2. genetic predis
3. any general anesthetic
esterase inhibitors are known as reversing agents, what does that mean
reverse the competitive blockade caused by myoneural inhibitors
alpha 1,2 stimulants
norepinephrine
phenylephrine (NeoSynephrine)
usage of alpha 1,2 stimulants
decongestant
dilation
hypotension
vasoconstrictor
alpha 1 stimulant and usage
proamatine
use for hypotention
alpha 2 stimulants
chonidine treat hypertension
tizanidine (zanaflex)-muscle relaxant
brimonidine - glc
use of brimonidine (Alphagan)
treat open angle glc
increase aq outflow
will cause miosis
what do alpha 2 stimulants do?
decrease the sym system because telling alpha 2 site that theres too many NE in system so then will decrease NE output
beta 1,2 stimulants
used for asthma, not used anymore, too many complications with increasing heart rates
beta 1 stimulants usage
used for the heart
main beta 1 stimulant
dopamine
beta 2 stimulants
for asthma attacks
able to dilate bronchioles
uterine hypermotility
- given to prevent miscarriage
side effects of beta 2 stim
tachycardia
pulmonary edema
tremors
hyperkalemia
beta 2 stim drug to treat asthma
albuterol
how come formoterol cant sub albuterol
because not fast onset, use as profalactic for people that have exersional asthma
what is salmeterol (serevent)
used in conjunction with albuterol
this drug is 12h relief, so use at night but still need albuterol as emergency inhaler
ritodrine(Yutopar)
used as a muscle relaxant
not approved use for physostigmine
used post surgery for pain, pain med take away pain but now cant breathe, then take this drug so the pain is still gone but now able to breathe
beta 2 stimulants
albuterol
levalbuterol
formoterol
salmeterol (seravent)
ritodrine
example of an alpha/beta stim
dipivefrin(propine)
what do use when in shock
alpa/beta stimulent
what alpha/beta stim is used for glaucoma
dipiverfin, its a prodrug
what is epineprine reversal
given alpha/beta stim and get decrease bp instead of increase bp because the person is using a alpha blocker, so only a beta stim
what is epineprine enhancement
given alpha/beta stim and get an even greater increase in hr because person is taking a beta blocker, so now alpha stim
anti-cholinergic, tertiary alkaloids
atropine
scopolamine
L-hyscyamine
anti-cholinergic, tertiary amines
benztropine, used for parkinsons
oxybutynin, used for urinary tract spasms
anti-cholinergic, quaterary amines

beta blocker usage for glc
decrease the production of aq humor
non specific beta blocker?
timolol
beta 1 blocker
betaxolol
benefits of timolol
cheap, but it will decrease flow to optic nerve head so visual field will be affected
benefits of betaxolol
no visual field defects but more expensive
who should u prescribe timolol to?
pt with no problems with asthma, no b2 blocker problems, no emphasema

no! body has abnormal gene for psudocholinesterase so it will not break down succinyl choline, body will be paralyzed for hours
