|
||||

🗑

🗑
|
||||
| Cholinergic | A drug that acts at the location where acetylcholine is released as the neurotransmitter.

🗑
|
||||
| -lytic or -blocker (antagonist) | suffixes for a drug that acts at the location where a division of the ANS acts and blocks the action of the neurotransmitter.
🗑
|
||||
| Four groups for the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) | P+, P-, S+, S-
🗑
|

🗑
|
||||
| Parasympatholytic (Antocholineric) agents: | These drugs do NOT interfere with the release of acetylcholine, but exert ehtir action by blocking the acetycholine receptors, this preventing the action of acetylcholine of smooth muscles, glandular tissue, and the heart.
🗑
|
||||
| Patasympatholytic (Anticholinergic)agents: Pharmacologic Effects | Salivary Glands-reduces flowBronchi-dilationEye-mydriasis and cycloplegiaCardiovascular-tachycardia

🗑
|
||||
| Parasympatholytic (anticholinergic)agents: Drug Ineraction | Other agents that have anticholinergic effects, such as phenothiazines, antihistamines, and tricyclic antidrepressants, can be additive.
🗑
|
||||
| 2 Neurotransmitters | Norepinephrine(released at terminal nerve endings) and Epinephrine(released from adrenal medulla)
🗑
|
||||
| 2 types of adrenergic receptors | Alpha receptors and Beta receptors

|
||||
| Alpha receptors | Located in the skin and skeletal muscle. Stimulation results in smooth muscle excitation or contraction.
