Atropine
|
Helps keep your heart rate stable after a heart attack or during surgery. Lowers the amount of body fluids inside your mouth and throat before a surgery. This keeps you from possibly choking on your saliva while you are unconscious.
May treat: Slow heartbeat, Cardiac arrest, Stomach ulcer, Uveitis, Sinoatrial block, Drug Toxicity

|
Vasodilation
|
refers to the widening of blood vessels. It results from relaxation of smooth muscle cells within the vessel walls, in particular in the large veins, large arteries, and smaller arterioles.
|
|
|

|

|
What are the 2 main divisions of the nervous system |
1) cns ( brain, spinal cord) all sensory info
2) peripheral nervous system (cranial nerves and spinal nerves) Carries info from receptors in the periphery of the body to the cns. Carries impulses from cns too muscles and glands

|
|
|
cholinergic
|
relating to or denoting nerve cells in which acetylcholine acts as a neurotransmitter.
releasing or responding to acetylcholine. pns |
|
|
parasympathetic nervous system
|
The division of the autonomic (involuntary or unwilled) nervous system that slows heart rate, increases digestive and gland activity, andrelaxes the sphincter muscles that close off body organs.
cholinergic |
|
|
sympathetic nervous system
|
The part of the autonomic nervous system that is concerned especially with preparing the body to react to situations of stress or emergency; it contains chiefly adrenergic fibers and tends to depress secretion, decrease the tone and contractility of smooth muscle,and increase heart rate.
adrenergic alpha and beta blockers are on the sympathetic |
|
|
h2 blockers
|
The H₂ receptor antagonists are a class of drugs used to block the action of histamine on parietal cells in the stomach, decreasing the production of acid by these cells.
|
|
|
beta blockers
|
any of a class of drugs that prevent the stimulation of the adrenergic receptors responsible for increased cardiac action. Beta blockers are used to control heart rhythm, treat angina, and reduce high blood pressure.
