ACH effects on Heart
Decrease Rate, force of contraction, conduction

M-receptor activation decreases AV node conduction
ACH effects on Blood vessels
Relax SM by endothelium/NO-dependent mechanism

Inhibition of NE release from adrenergic nerves
ACH effects on BP
Vasodilation Decrease CO/PVR, decrease HR/contractility ---> Decrease BP
ACH effects on GI
Contracts GI SM

Increase Amplitude of contractions

Increase peristaltic actvity ---> Increase GI motility (Diarrhea, nausea, vommit)

Used for GI atony
ACH effects on glands
Increase Gland secretion

Used for xerostomia

Contraindicated in Peptic Ulcer
ACH effect on urinary tract
Increase Urinary Peristalsis

Contracts detrusor

Relaxes trigone

Used for urinary retention
ACH effects on eye
Causes miosis

Contracts cilliary muscle--->near vision ---> affects ability to focus.

Used for reversal of mydriasis.
Narrow angle glaucoma
Iris obstruction of trabecular network. Space is too narrow for humor outflow. Contract sphincter muscle of iris to fix
Open-angle glaucoma
Chronic/simple

Mis aligned trabecular network. Contract sphincter/cilliary muscle to re-align and fix.

needs permanent drug therapy
Eye Drug SE
can get into nasolacrimal duct and cause systemic absorption.
Poor lipid soluble CHE inhibitors
Selectivity for tissues

NMJ>ganglia>NEJ>>>>>CNS

Requires higher does to effect less selective tissues
Lipid soluble inhibitors
Penetrate tissues easily

No tissue selectivity
CHE inhibitor effect on CV system
Decrease rate

Dilate blood vessels via vasomotor center in brain stem which decreases symp outflow

Decreases BP by vasomotor center
CHE inhibitor effect on GI system
Identical to cholinomimetics

actions mediated at Ganglia of Aerbach's Plexus and parasympathetic NEJ
CHE inhibitor effect on EYEe
Same as cholinomimetics

Long-acting agents increase risk of cataracts if used for more than 6 months
CHE inhibitor action on NMJ
Increase ACH in NMJ = increase SKM response = increase strength

Decrease Decay of ACH NMJ

Given with muscarinic antagonist to decrease papar symp SE
Myasthenia Gravis
Autoimmune disease where anitbodies work as competitive inhibitors of Nm and block ACH activation of NMJ

Leads to muscle weakness and fatigue

Edrophonium (IV) given to dianose myasthenia gravis.

If strenght increases = mg
If strength decreases = no mg
Lambert Eaton Syndrome
Autoimmune disease where antibodies to Ca channels required for ACH release leads to muscle weakness and fatigue
Pralidoxime
Cholinesterase reactivator
Obidoxime
Cholinesterase reactivator
