name the Sympathomimetic - α1, α2, β1, β2, low doses selective for β1   Epinephrine  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - α1, α2 >β1   NE  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - β1 =β2   Isoproterenol  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - β1 >β2   Dobutamine  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - D1 = D2 >β >α   Dopamine  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - Indirect general agonist, releases stored catecholamines   Amphetamine - and - Ephedrine  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - α1 >α2   Phenylephrine  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - β2 >β1   Albuterol, - terbutaline  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - Indirect general agonist, uptake inhibitor   Cocaine  
🗑
name the Sympathomimetic - Centrally acting α-agonist, ↓ central adrenergic outflow   Clonidine, α-methyldopa  
🗑
effect on BP and HR of - Norepinephrine   (α > β), ↑ BP, ↓ HR (reflex bradycardia)  
🗑
effect on BP and HR of - Epinephrine   nonselective - NC BP( increases systolic, but decreases diastolic)  
🗑
effect on BP and HR of - Isoproterenol   (β > α), ↓ BP, ↑ HR  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Epinephrine   Anaphylaxis, glaucoma (open;angle), asthma, hypotension  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - NE   Hypotension (but ↓ renal ;perfusion)  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Isoproterenol   AV block (rare)  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Dopamine   Shock (↑ renal perfusion), heart failure  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Dobutamine   Shock, heart failure cardiac ;stress testing  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Amphetamine   Narcolepsy, obesity, ADHD  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Ephedrine   Nasal decongestion, urinary incontinence, hypotension  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Phenylephrine   Pupil dilator, vasoconstriction, nasal decongestion  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Albuterol, terbutaline   Asthma  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Cocaine   Causes vasoconstriction and ;local anesthesia  
🗑
Applications of Sympathomimetics - Clonidine, α-methyldopa   Hypertension, especially with;renal disease (no ↓ in blood ;flow to kidney)  
🗑
name the Nonselective α-blockers   Phenoxybenzamine - phentolamine  
🗑
name the α1 selective α-blockers   Prazosin, terazosin, doxazosin  
🗑
name the α2 selective α-blockers   Mirtazapine  
🗑
Nonselective α-blockers - Application and Toxicity   Pheochromocytoma - Orthostatic hypotension, reflex tachycardia  
🗑
α1 selective α-blockers - Application and Toxicity   Hypertension, urinary retention in BPH - -1st-dose orthostatic hypotension, dizziness, headache  
🗑
α2 selective α-blockers - Application and Toxicity   Depression - Sedation, ↑ serum cholesterol, ↑ appetite  
🗑
Nonselective α-blockers - names and differences   Phenoxybenzamine (irreversible) - phentolamine (reversible)  
🗑
effects of an α-blocker (e.g., phentolamine) on BP responses to epinephrine and phenylephrine.   The epinephrine response exhibits reversal of the mean blood pressure change, from a net increase (the α response) to a net decrease (the β2 response). The response to phenylephrine is suppressed but not reversed because phenylephrine is a “pure” α-agonis  
🗑
β-blockers - non selective ones   Nonselective (N or later)(β1 = β2)––propranolol, timolol, nadolol, pindolol (partial agonist), and - labetalol (partial agonist, and exception to the after N rule and the olol rule)  
🗑
β-blockers - selective ones   Before N - β1 selective (β1 > β2)–– Betaxolol, Esmolol (short acting), Atenolol, Metoprolol - Acebutolol (partial agonist hes and Ass),  
🗑
β-blocker effect WRT - Hypertension   ↓ cardiac output, ↓ renin secretion  
🗑
β-blocker effect WRT - Angina pectoris   ↓ heart rate and contractility, resulting in ↓ O2 consumption  
🗑
β-blocker effect WRT - MI   β-blockers ↓ mortality  
🗑
β-blocker effect WRT - SVT   ↓ AV conduction velocity  
🗑
β-blocker effect WRT - CHF   Slows progression of chronic failure  
🗑
β-blocker effect WRT Glaucoma   ↓ secretion of aqueous humor  
🗑
which β-blockers - Tx for Glaucoma   timolol  
🗑
which β-blockers - Tx for SVT   propranolol, esmolol  
🗑
β-blockers - Toxicity (non cardiac)   1. Impotence, 2. exacerbation of asthma, 3. CNS adverse effects (sedation, sleep alterations), 4. diabetics can't feel low sugar  
🗑
β-blockers - Toxicity (cardiac)   -bradycardia, -AV block, -CHF  
🗑
