block SNS stimulation by binding to androgenic receptors
- sympatholytics |
|
Alpha Blockers
|
- vasodilation
- miosis (constrict) - supress ejaculation |
|
Alpha Blocker Drugs
|
Ergotamines: vasoconstriction for migraines
Oxytocies: increase uterine contractions Prazosin: vasodilator to treat HTN |
|
Beta 1 Blockers
|
(cardioselective)
- decrease HR - slows conduction - decrease force of contraction to treat angina, HTN, dysrythmia |
|
Beta 2 Blockers
|
(nonselective)
also affects: - constrict broncholes (SOB) - vasoconstriction (HTN) |
|
Beta BLocker Drug Interactions
|
1. Antacids: decrease absorption
2. Anticholonergics: decrease effect 3. Diuretics / CV drugs: cause hypotension |
|
Beta Blocker Drugs
|
Atenolol & Metopranolol: cardioselective
Carvedilol & Propranolol: nonselective |
|
Cholinergics
|
- stimulate the PSNS (oppose SNS)
- ACh |
|
Muscarinic Receptors
|
- increase bronchi secretions, constriction
- vasodilation - miosis - increase GI tone & contractility - relax sphincter - increase gland secretion - salavary, lacrimal, sweat |
|
Nicotinic Receptors
|
- vasoconstriction
- miosis - increase GI tone & contractility - increase skeletal muscle contraction |
|
Cholinergic Uses
|
- weak bladder conditions
- GI disorders - eye pressure - mysthenia gravis - alzheimers |
|
Cholinergic Antedote
|
Atropine
|
|
Cholinergic Blockers
|
- peptic ulcers, gastritis
- antispasmic for urinary inc. - mydriasis (dilation) - hypotension - Parkinson's (decrease salvation, spastic muscles) |
|
Diabetes Mellitus
|
- defficency in insulin, resistance to insulin, or both
- causes impaired metabolism and hyperglycemia |
|
Type I DM
|
- insulin dependant
- autoimmune disorder - Beta cells destroyed and don't produce insulin |
|
Type II DM
|
- non insulin dependant
- major cause - obesity - increase in glucose, body doesn't make enough insulin to maintain metabolism |
|
Insulin
|
- glycogen synthesis: glucose storeage in liver
- decreased proteinolysis, lipolysis - decreased gluconeogenisis |
|
Insulin Preperations
|
Animal - not used
Human Analog: recombanant DNA, same as human insulin with the reversal of lysine & proline |
|
