Signs of cholinergic poisoning
Salivation
Lactrimation
Urination
Defication
Gastrointestinal cramping
Emesis (vomiting)

OR
Ations: Salivation, Defication, Urination, Fasciculations
Heas: Diarrhea, Bronchorrhea, Rhinorrhea, Bradycardia
Muscarinic poisoning can occur from?
Organophosphates
Insecticides
Nerve Gas (Serin)
Muscarinic poisoning would do what to your eyes?
Constrict
Dilation = alpha1
Action of organocphosphates:
inhibit acetylcholinesterase (get excess AcH, which affects, M, N and CNS receptors)
What symptoms do you have in Nicotinic poisonings that you wouldn't in muscarinic
Fasciculations
Paralysis
Tachycardia
mydriasis (pupil dilation)
What odors are associated with organophosphate and cyanide poisoning?
Garlic odor
Bitter almonds
Antidote for organophosphates is?
Pralidoxamine: reduces AcH-Esterase phophorylation. This is critical to do quickly bc bond becomes covalent instead of ionic after a certain time

Atropine: Anticholinergic, blocks M receptors (increases heart rate, dries secretions and decrease bronchoconstriction)
Effect of antihistamine poisoning
Similar to that of Anti-cholinergics:
dry mouth
urinary retention
constipation
tachycardia
dilated pupils
hyperpyrexia (fever)
(Can't see, can't spit, can't see, can't shit OR Hot, Dry, Tacky, Wacky)
Antidote for anticholinergics is:
Physostigmine, blocks acetylcholinesterase so more competition for receptors. Contraindicated with wide QRS
Antidote for anticholinergics is contraindicated when
Wide QRS
Physostigmine
What receptors does meth work on? Presentation?
B1 and Alpha one
Presentation:
Increased HR (B1)
Increased BP (alpha 1)
Hyperthermia
Apetite loss
Pupil dilation
Difference between sympathamemetics and anticholinergics
Anti: Can't sweat, dry mouth
Symp: Hypertension
Treatment for meth
Benzos
Beta blockers
NE can't bind to B1 or B2
Lowers HR and BP and Glucose.
Antidote is Glucagon (increase intracellular cAMP)
