Bethanechol
|
favors M3, improves bladder and GI function
|
|
Cevimeline/Pilocarpine
|
Used for dry mouth which increase Helpful Sjogrens syndrome(autoimmune disease which effects salivary glands).
Pilocarpine is generally more used for eye dryness/glaucoma |
|
Name anti-muscarinic Drugs
|
Atropine, Scopolamine, Ipratropium, Tolterodine, Oxybutyin
|
|
What are the effects of anti-muscarinic drugs in each organ system?
|
Eyes would dilate, heart rate would increase, if acetylcholine present it is blocked, bronchial relaxation, salivary secretions reduce, no eccrine sweat response
|
|
Difference between Atropine and Scopolamine
|
Atropine causes hallucination when it crosses BBB. Scopolamine causes sedation when it crosses BBB
|
|
Describe Atropine
|
40% transformed 60% excreted. It is well absorbed and well distributed and can be consumed in almost any context.
|
|
Describe Scopolamine
|
Similar to atropine. 40% transformed 60% excreted. It is well absorbed and well distributed and can be consumed in almost any context. Sometimes used for motion sickness.
|
|
Describe Ipratropium

|
Edrophonium
|
Only binds to anion site and is short acting. Used to diagnose a disease called myesthenia gravis. It is a reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitor.
|
|
Neostigmine, Pyridostigmine, Physostigmine
|
Physostigmine readily crosses the BBB. The other two do not. These all bind both at the esteratic and anionic site.
Pyridistigmine is mostly used to treat myesthenia gravis They are all reversible acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. |
|
Isofluorophate, Echothiophate,
|
Organophosphates that covalently bind to the estheratic site and can be used to treat glaucoma. The phosphorus makes the covalent bond.
|
|

|
|
Pralidoxine
|
It is an antidote for anti-acetylcholinesterase poisoning by binding to anionic site and then having a higher affinity for the phosphate group.
|
|
Neostigmine
|
It can be used to reverse the effects of a non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking drug.
|
|
Nicotine effects
|
It is a ganglion blocker as well as a noradrenergic stimulator. It stimulates the release of norepinephrine and epinephrine from adrenal gland. As such it increase heart rate and blood pressure. However, it also has a parasympathetic effect wherein it increases secretions and GI tone/activity. It has complex CNS effects due to the release of dopamine.
He really stressed the importance of understanding that nicotine releases norepinephrine. |
|
name common ache used to undo neuromuscular blockers
|
neostigmine, pyridostygmine, edrophonium
|
|
When will Ache not be useful to antagonize the effects of another drug?
|
Phase I of succinylcholine
|
|
Dantrolene
|
Prevents release of calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum. It blocks contraction and helps treat malignant hyperthermia.
|
|
deinnervation supersensitivity
|
Once muscle gets deinnervated you get tremendous upregulation of receptors along the entire muscle. As a result succinylcholine acts on every single receptor Sodium comes out, Potassium comes in but normally that is restricted to the end plate, but now it happens all along the muscle significant enough to cause cardiac problems.
|
|
reserpine
|
blocks dopamine or norepinephrine transport into the nerve terminal which then causes them to be destroyed by MAO
|
|
Guanethidine
|
Leads to the depletion of NE by slow displacement of the transmitter.

alpha 1 mimetic
substrate for MAO mydriasis without cycloplegia, pressor, nasal decongestant can be taken orally |
|
clonidine
|
alpha 2 mimetic
decreases sympathetic tone from CNS as such it decreases HR, contractility, renin release, vasoconstriction. side effects include sedation, dry mouth(decreases secretion) Gi, meaning it inhibits cAMP and increases K+ can be taken in almost any form. |
|
isoproterenol
|
this is a non selective beta adrenergic(beta 1 beta 2) that acts at the receptor level by mimicing the transmitter
NOT sensitive to MAO. Metabolized by COMT effective ionotropic agent. Effects more on contractility than HR. Bronchodilator. |
|
dobutamine
|
selective cardiac stimulation by mimicing beta 1 transmitter
very short half life. Must be used with IV drip. Will be used to treat acute heart failure and cardiogenic shock. It is more ionotropic than chronotropic. |
|
terbutaline, metaproterenol, albuterol
|
selective inhibition of smooth muscle contractions causing bronchodilation. So it can be used for Asthma and COPD. Especially better for COPD since its not a Beta 1 agonist(unless dose pushed).

|
|
Guanethidine
|
taken up by same transporter as NE. Once it gets inside prevents release of NE. Then it prevents uptake of Dopamine and NE into vesicles. "False transmitter" because it takes the place of NE in vesicles but doesn't do anything.
No effects on CNS. Postural hypotension. used to treat hypertension |
|
hallmark of anything blocking alpha receptors is...
|
postural hypotension
|
|
Reserpine

|
just like clonidine. its a centrally acting alpha 2 agonist. methyldopa is a prodrug.
reduces sympathetic output from CNS thereby reducing hypertension. |
