Question
Answer
Adrenergic Drugs definition   drugs that stimulate the SNS (sympathetic NS) Also known as: adrenergic agonists, sympathomimetics, catecholamines  
🗑
What are catecholamines   neurotransmitters for SNS, mimic response "Flight or fight": endogenous (epi,norepi,dopamine) and Synthetic (dobutamine, phenylephrine)  
🗑
What are adrenergic receptors   throughout body, receptors for SNS neurotransmitters: alpha, beta, dopaminergic receptors (only respond to dopamine)  
🗑
Adrenergic responses   vasoconstriction, CNS stimulation, mydriosis (pupil dilate), dry mouth, incr HR, bronchodilation, bladder fundus relaxes, sphincter contracts  
🗑
Beta adrenergic receptors   B1 - heart B2 - lungs, visceral organs  
🗑

🗑
Results of cardiac stimulation   incr force of contraction (inotropic) incr HR (chronotropic) incr conduction thru AV node (dromotropic)  
🗑
What do vasoactive sympathomimetics do?   pressors/inotropes, support heart during failure or shock, incr BP, epinephrine  
🗑
How treat eyes?   Glaucoma- reduce intraocular pressure, dilation of pupils, alpha adrenergic receptors, epi, dipifefrin Conjunctival congestion

Drug effects: eye and gastro   mydriasis - dilate, decr. accommodation can't poop, decr gastric secretions (can't spit)  
🗑
Drug effects genitourinary and glandular and resp   relaxed detrusor muscle, incr constriction of int. sphincter = retention decr salivation and sweat decr bronchial secretions, dilate airways  
🗑
anticholinergics are used to treat   IBS, incontinence/bladder spasms, decr resp secretions preop, block vagal impulse to heart, relax sphincter iris, tremors/rigid Parkinsonism, SE psychotropic meds  
🗑
Atropine is an anticholinergic used for   heart block, severe bradycardia  
🗑
Overdose is life threatening and the antidote for atropine overdose is   physostigmine and may cause sensitive to light and decr sweating so be at higher risk for heat stroke  
🗑
