|
Tertiary ammonium Compound effects (Atropine) Respiratory, CNS, Eye, Cardiac, Gastrointestinal, Genitourinary |
1. Respiratory tract- inhibits mucocilliary clearance 2. CNS-irritability, Fatigue 3. Eyes- Iris contraction, pupil dilation, ciliary muscle paralysis 4. Cardiac- Slowing HR at LOW DOSE, increase of HR at HIGH DOSE 5. Gastrointestinal- dry mouth. decreased motility 6. Genitourinary- urinary retention |
|

|
*Mode of action |
1. Parasympathetic innervation causes basal level bronchomotor tone 2. parasympatholytic bronchodilators block this tone. (can be abolished by Anticholinergic agents) -Competition for muscarinic receptor site block Ach action 3. Degree of bronchodilation depends on the amount of parasympathetic activity or tone present |
|
-Decreased HR -Miosis (contraction of iris, eye) -Contraction (thickening) of lens eye -Salivation -Lacrimation -Urination -Defecation -Secretion of mucus -Bronchoconstriction |
Cholinergic effect (parasympathomimetic) |
|
-Increased HR -Mydriasis (pupil dilation) -Cycloplegia (lens flattened) -Drying of upper airway -inhibition of tear formation -urinary retention -Antidiarrheal or constipation -Mucociliary slowing -Inhibition of constriction |
Anticholinergic Effect (parasympatholytic) |
|
In the normal airway what can cause bronchomotor tone and how can it be stopped? |
Parasympathetic activity Can be stopped by anticholinergics |
|
What intensifies the activity of normal airway bronchomotor tone? 2 Example |
Parasympathomimetics 1. Methacholine -Constriction 2. Cholinergic stimulation of muscarinic receptors- Contraction & release of mucus |
|
In Anticholinergics, what "competitively blocks" Ach @ receptors & what does this help accomplish? |
Antimuscarinic -Block cholinergic induced bronchoconstriction |
|
Definition -bronchoconstriction in COPD may be due to: Irritant aerosols, cold air, high flow rates, cigarette smoke, noxious fumes, histamine |
