MOA: cholinomimetic; activates bowel/bladder sm. muscle
Use: postop/neurogenic ileus/urinary retention
Carbachol
MOA: cholinomimetic
Use: Glaucoma pupillary contraction, releases IOP
Pilocarpine
MOA: cholinomimetic; contracts ciliary muscle, pupillary sphincter, AChE resistant

MOA: anticholinesterase; NO CNS
use: myasthenia gravis (long acting)
Edrophonium
MOA: anticholinesterase
use: dx of myasthenia gravis (short-acting)

Atropine
MOA: muscarinic antagonist
Side effects: Hot as hare, Dry as bone, Red as beet, Blind as bat, Mad as hatter
Hexamethonium
MOA: nicotinic antagonist
Use: ganglionic blocker; can prevent vagal reflex responses (i.e., to NE)
tox: orthostatic hypotension, blurred vision, constipation, sexual dysfunction
Epinephrine
MOA: alpha 1,2; beta 1,2 agonist
NE
MOA: alpha 1, alpha 2 >> beta 1
use: hypotension (but decreases renal perfusion)

MOA: beta 1 and beta 2 agonist
use: AV block
Dopamine
MOA: D1, D2 > beta > alpha (inotrope and chronotrope)
use: shock (increases renal perfusion through D1), heart failure

MOA: beta1 > beta2; inotrope (NOT chronotrope)
Use: shock, heart failure, stress test
Phenylephrine
MOA: alpha1 > alpha2
use: pupillary dilation, vasoconstriction, nasal decongestion
Albuterol
Terbutaline
MOA: beta 2 >beta1
Use: albuteral for asthma; terbutaline for premature uterine contractions (beta2)
Ritodrine
MOA: beta 2
Use: reduces premature uterine contractions
Amphetamine
MOA: releases stored catecholamines
use: narcolepsy, obesity, ADD
Ephedrine
MOA: releases stored catecholamines
use: nasal decongestion, incontinence, hypotension
Cocaine
MOA: uptake inhibitor of catecholamines
use: vasoconstriction, local anesthesia
Clonidine
alpha-methyldopa
MOA: central alpha2-agonist (decreases adrenergic outflow)
use: hypertension (esp. with renal disease b/c no decrease in blood flow to kidney)
beta-2 agonists
metaproterenol
albuterol
salmeterol
terbutaline
