define--> use dependent or state-dependent
|
channels that are being used frequently , or in an inactivated state, are more susceptible to block
|
|
what phase do drugs that effect Na or Ca channels have an effect on
|
phase 4 by reducing the ratio of Na or Ca permeability to K permeability
|
|
define--> class 1 action
|
Na channel blockers
|
|
define--> class 2 action
|
reduce adrenergic activity(Beta blockers)
|

drugs that prolong the action potential duration(K channel blockers)
|
|
define--> class 4 action
|
blockade of the Ca channel current
