Units 5-8

QuestionAnswer
Drugs that mimic Norepinephrine Adrenergic Agonists ( sympathomimetics, adrenomimetics)
Classification of Adrenergic Agonists Direct Acting, Indirect Acting, Mixed Acting
Direct Acting Adrenergic Agonists Stimulate the receptor (Epinephrine and Norepinephrine)
Indirect Acting Adrenergic Agonists Stimulate the release of Norepinephrine from terminal nerve ending (Amphetamine)
Mixed Acting Adrenergic Agonists Stimulate adrenergic receptor sites and stimulate the release of Norepinephrine from terminal nerve ending (Ephedrine)
Body tissues and organs effected by Adrenergic Agonists Eye, Lungs, Heart, Blood Vessels, GI Tract, Bladder, Uterus
Adrenergic Agonists responses on body tissues and organs Dilated pupil, Dilated bronchioles, Increased heart rate, Constricted blood vessels, Relaxes smooth muscle of GI Tract, Relaxes bladder muscles, relaxes uterine muscles
4 Adrenergic Agonist receptors Alpha1, Alpha2, Beta1, Beta2
Locations of Alpha1 Receptors Blood Vessels, Eye, Bladder
Effects of Alpha1 Receptors Vasconstriction which increases blood pressure, Increased contractility of heart, Dilation of pupils, Uterine contractions
Locations of Alpha2 Receptors Blood Vessels, Smooth Muscle of GI Tract
Effects of Alpha2 Receptors Reduced release of Norepinephrine, Decreased blood pressure, Decreased GI tone and motility
Locations of Beta1 Receptors Heart, Kidney
Effects of Beta1 Receptors Increased heart contractions, Increased heart rate, Increased renin secretion, Increased angiotensin, Increased blood pressure
Locations of Beta2 Receptors Smooth Muscle of GI Tract, Lungs, Uterus, Liver
Effects of Beta2 Receptors Decreased GI tone and motility, Bronchodilation, Relaxation of uterine smooth muscle, Increased blood sugar leading to activation of glycogenolysis
Drugs that mimic Dopamine Anticholinergics (antiparasympatheric agents)
Classification of drugs that mimic Dopamine Anticholinergics, Dopaminergics, Dopamine Agonists, MAO-B Inhibitors, COMT Inhibitors
Anticholinergics Block Cholinergic Receptors
Dopaminergics Convert to Dopamine
Dopamine Agonists Stimulate Dopamine Receptors
MAO-B Inhibitors Inhibit MAO-B enzymes that interfere with Dopamine

Classification of Cholinergic Agonists Muscarinic and Nicotinic
Muscarinic Cholinergic Receptors Affect smooth muscle and slow the heart
Nicotinic Cholinergic Receptors Affect skeletal muscle
Body tissues and organs effected by Cholinergic Agonists Eye, Lungs, Heart, Blood Vessels, GI Tract, Bladder, Salivary Glands
Effects of Cholinergic Agonists on body tissues and organs Constricted pupils, Constricted bronchioles, Decreased heart rate, Dilated blood vessels, Increased perstalsis, Constricts bladder, Increases Salivation
