slow conduction through the AV node; acts on atria
|
|
Action: Amiodarone
|
Suppression of arrhythmias
|
|
Action: Amy Nitrate
|
• Relaxes smooth muscle
• Decreases cyanide poisoning by converting hemoglobin to methemoglobin which forms a non-toxic compound with cyandide (which is secreted by the liver) |
|
Action: Atrophine Sulfate
|
Blocks the action of acetylcholine at parasympathetic
|
|
Action: Calcium Chloride
|
• Increase inotropy and automaticity (Ventricular)
• Restore myocardial conduction due to hyperkalemia |
|
Action: Dopamine
|
• Stimulates both adrenergic and dopaminergic receptors
• Hemodynamic effects of dopamine are dose dependant |
|
Action: Epinephrine
