  • 3rd side (hint)
atropine
muscarinic receptor antagonist
blocks all subtypes

Pharmacological effects
-papillary dilation
-cycloplegia
-reduces GI secretions and motility
-decreases sweating
-mild tachycardia
similar to scopolamine
scopolamine
Similar to atropine-exerts more CNS action

Effects
-drowsiness
-amnesia
ipratropium
competitive muscarinic agonist

administered by inhalation in reversible airway disease where bronchial restriction has resulted from PNS
nicotine
Depolarizing (noncompetitive) ganglionic blocker

initially activate nicotinic Ach receptors to cause depolarization of neural membrane

if too much nicotine membrane is unable to repolarize and no longer responds to Ach release
trimethaphan
Nondepolarizing nicotinic(competitive) ganlionic blocking drug

competes with ACh at nicotinic receptor and prevents depolarization of postsynaptic membrane
D-tubocurarine
Neuromuscular nondepolarizing blocking agent
block Ach receptors at motor end plate - paralyzes skeletal muscle
contains "cur" think about curare
atracurium
Neuromuscular nondepolarizing blocking agent
vecuronium
Neuromuscular nondepolarizing blocking agent
mivacurium
Neuromuscular nondepolarizing blocking agent
succinylcholine
muscarinic agonist (depolarizing blocker)

persistent depolarization of the motor end plate
just like acetylcholine
epinephrine
adrenergic receptor agonist
phenylephrine
alpha-1 agonist

vasoconstrictor
think about epin"ephrine"
clonidine
alpha-2 agonist

-antihypertensive drug decreases the sympathetic outflow from the medulla to the resistance vessels
-also decreases addiction
antihypertensive
dipivefrin
beta-2 agonist
-increases outflow of aqueous humor
alpha-1 agonist
-decreases formation of aqueous humor
"di" it does two things
isoproterenol
beta receptor agonist
albuterol
selective beta-2 agonist

bronchodilator
salmeterol
selective beta-2 agonist

-relaxes bronchial smooth muscle
"rol" albute"rol"
dobutamine
beta-1 agonist
increases CO without increasing peripheral resistance
sounds like dopamine
dopamine
weak beta-1 agonist
increases CO without increasing peripheral resistance
bethanechol
selective muscarinic cholinergic receptor agonist

-long duration of action
-used to increase tone and contractions of intestine and urinary bladder
pilocarpine
primarily muscarinic receptor agonist

-not substrate for cholinesterases
(long duration of action)
edrophonium
reversible cholinesterase inhibitor

-short duration of action
-used as test for myasthenia gravis
neostigmine
reversible cholinesterase inhibitor

-longer duration of action
-does not significantly enter blood brain barrier
DFP
irreversible cholinesterase inhibitor

-long duration
-used in eye to treat glaucoma
pralidoxine
Acetylcholinesterase regenerator

- if administered soon after exposure to organophosphate
Acetazolamide
Promixal tubule
carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
decreaes Na/H exchange
Furosemide
Loop of Henle
decreases Na/K/2Cl transporter
promotes less Na reabsorption and increase K excretion
Thiazide
Distal tubule
decrease Na/Cl cotransporter
Amiloride
Distal tubule and collecting duct
decrease ENaC
Spironolactone
MR antagonist
decrease ENaC
