| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| bethanechol | Urecholine (parasympathomimetic:DIRECT)- stimulates smooth muscle of GI, bladder |
| pilocarpine | Isopto Carpine- glaucoma, Salagen-xerostomia(parasympathomimetic:DIRECT) |
| cevimeline | xerostomia (parasympathomimetic:DIRECT) |
| physostigmine | Erserine-glaucoma, miosis, cyclopegia (parasympathomimetic:INDIRECT) |
| neostigmine | post-op paralytic ileus or abdominal distension (parasympathomimetic:INDIRECT) |
| malathion | agricultural incesticides (parasympathomimetic:INDIRECT) |
| parathon | agricultural incesticides(parasympathomimetic:INDIRECT) |
| sarin | nerve gas (parasympathomimetic:INDIRECT) |
| scopolamine | Transderm Scop- motion sickness (parasympatholyic) |
| atropine | create dry filed (parasympatholyic) |
| propantheline | Probanthine-create dry field (parasympatholyic) |
| dicyclomine | Bentyl-antispasmodic (parasympatholyic) |
| glycopyrrolate | Robinul-inhibit GI motility (parasympatholyic) |
| pyridostigmine, neostigmine, ambenomium (+corticosteriod) | Prostigmine (neostigmine)- myasthenia gravis (parasypathomimetic-INDIRECT) |
| Bella donna alkaloids | spastic bowel, hypermotility of GI (parasympatholytic) |
| epinephrine | used in local anesthetic for vasoconstriction,vassopressor in smooth muscle, vasodilator in skeletal muscle (B2), anaphylaxis, topical to control bleeding, cardiac stimulant (B1), decrease GI activity, bronchodilation, increase metabolism (sympath) |
| isoproterenol | tx. bronchospasm in asthma (sympathomimetic) |
| dopamine | tx. shock, precursor of NE, Epi, and CNS NT (sympathomimetic) |
| albuterol | B2, tx asthma symptoms (dilate smooth muscle, reduce histamines and leukotrienes in lung tissue)- sympathomimetic |
| phenlyephrine | a, constriction of peripheral vessels, tx. shock-raise BP, improve circulation (sympathomimetic) |
| phenylephrine hydrochloride | Neosynephrine-a, tx. nasal congestion and mydriatic in opthalmic formulations (sympathomimetic) |
| ephedrine and pseudoephrine | Sudafed-nasal decongestant (sympathomimetic) |
| phenylpropanolamine | nasal decongestant, appetite suppressant (sympathomimetic) |
| amphetamine and methylphenidrate | Ritalin-tx ADHD and narcolepsy (sympathomimetic) |
| amphetamine | lipophilic drug leads to huge release of catecholamines in CNS; increased alertness, relief of fatigue, euphoria- increases release of dopamine in Ritalin (sympath) |
| methylphenidrate | prevents reuptake of dopamine in Ritalin |
| methamphetamine | "Meth"-more lipophilic and CNS activity; euphoria and excitement, high addictive potential; "meth-mouth" |

| terazosin | Hytrin-a1 antagonist; tx hypertension, urination problems in prostate pts (sympatholytic) |
| doxazosin | Cardura-a1 antagonist; tx hypertension, urination problems in prostate pts (sympatholytic) |
| propanolol | Inderol-B blocker; tx angina and hypertension (sympatholytic) |
| metaprolol | Lopressor-B1 blocker; tx angina, high BP, ischemic heart disease (sympatholytic) |
| atenolol | Tenormin-B1 blocker; tx hypertension |

| ibuprofen | Advil, Motrin-specific NSAID; proprionic acid, drug of choice for dental pain, antipyretic for peds (Nonopiod) |
| naproxen | Nasopryn-specific NSAID, longer acting, slower onset of action (Nonopiod) |
| naproxen sodium | Anaprox-specific NSAID, longer acting, slower onset of action (Nonopiod) |
| ketoprofen | Orudis-specific NSAID, anti PG, leukotrienes, bradykinins (Nonopiod) |
| celecoxib | Celebrex- COX II inhibitor; tx arthritis-risk of CVA (Nonopiod) |
| acetaminophen (APAP) | Tylenol-antipyretic, analgesic, not anti-inflammatory (Nonopiod) |
| colchicines | tx acute outbreaks of gout, interferes w/ inflammatory response to urate crystals (Nonopiod) |
| allopurinol | Zyloprim-tx gout, inhibits final steps of uric acid synthesis |
| probenecid | tx.gout, uricosuric agent, decreases excretion of all other chemicals and ONLY increases amt of uric acid in urine (Nonopiod) |
