Tubocurarine (curare) drug type
non-depolarizing neuromuscular junction blockers
hexamethonium side effects
orthostatic hypotension
hexamethonium uses?
severe hypertension (though not used clinically)
Tubocurarine MOA
"long half life; prevents depolarization by acetylcholine at Neuromuscular junction -->s
causes flaccid paralysiss

Prolonged relaxation for surgerys
Histamine release --> leads to HYPOTENSION

Tubocurarine (curare) drug type
non-depolarizing neuromuscular junction blockers
hexamethonium side effects
orthostatic hypotension
hexamethonium uses?

Tubocurarine MOA
long half life; prevents depolarization by acetylcholine at Neuromuscular junction -->
causes flaccid paralysiss

Prolonged relaxation for surgerys
Histamine release --> leads to HYPOTENSION


Competitive blockade of Ach receptors, makes EPP lower than threshold for muscle action potential
Tubocurarine derived from?
Isoquninoline
Tubocurarine uses
Prolonged relaxation for surgical purposes
Tubocurarine adverse effects
Some ganglionic blockade

Releases histamine from mast cells
(→ flushing, edema, erythema, hypotension, tachycardia)
Tubocurarine clearance
renal
Pancuronium drug type
non-depolarizing neuromuscular junction blockers; steroid derivative
Pancuronium MOA
Nondepolarizing block:
Competitive blockade of Ach receptors, makes Extracellular electric Potential (EEP) lower than threshold for muscle action potential
Atracuronium drug type & MoA
non-depolarizing neuromuscular junction blockers; Isoquinoline derivative

Nondepolarizing block:
Competitive blockade of Ach receptors, makes EPP lower than threshold for muscle action potential
Vercuronium drug type & moa
non-depolarizing neuromuscular junction blockers Steroid derivative

Nondepolarizing block:
Competitive blockade of Ach receptors, makes EPP lower than threshold for muscle action potential
Rocuronium drug type & moa
non-depolarizing neuromuscular junction blockers

Competitive Antagonist!! With rapid onset!
Rocuronium clearnace
liver
Succinylcholine drug type &moa
IRREVERSIBLE!!! DEPOLARIZING neuromuscular junction blockers

Partial agonist of Ach receptors, keeps endplate partially depolarized so sodium channels inactivated;

Initial: transient contractions (fasiculations)
Later: prolonged flaccid paralysis
edrophonium drug type & moa
Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors

a. Indirect cholinergic agonist
b. Enhance cholinergic tone & end organ parasympathetically at both ---> NO IMPACT ON CNS b/c positively charged
edrophonium uses
Diagnosis & acute treatment of Myasthenia Gravis
succinylcholine adverse effects
TAKE A HISTORY!!! IF PATIENT WAS ON RESPIRATOR LONGER THAN USUAL, COULD HAVE PROBLEM W/ CHOLINESTERASE & THEREFORE HAVE NO REVERSAL FOR SUCCINYL CHOLINE!!!
edrophonium metabolism
esterases
donepezil drug type & MOA
Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors

CNS selective acetylcholinesterase inhibitor --> for alzheimers
Donepezil pharmacology
LONG HALF LIFE - 3 DAYS!

Metabolized by CYP2D6 & CYP3A4 extensively plasma protein bound
galantamine drug type & MOA
Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors

Half life - 7 hours; CNS selective acetylcholinesterase inhibitor --> alzheimers
physostigmine drug type moa and uses
REVERSIBLE Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors

Carbamate (reversible); also a positive allosteric modulator of Ach action at nicotinic receptors

Treatment of atropine poisoning & glaucoma (but rarely used)
rivastigmine drug typ, moa, and uses
REVERSIBLE Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors

Carbamate (reversible); CNS selective

improve cognitive function in alzheimers
Pralidoxime (2-PAM) moa
Aceytlcholinesterase Reactivator

nucleophilic reactivator which regenerates the enzyme to its original state… must be used early
sarin
a potent irreversible inhibitor of the enzyme cholinesterase
rocuronium side effect
prolonged apnea
