Cards

Term
Not effective orally or IV
Topical use to cause Miosis
Short acting 10 minutes
N and M agonist
Very sensitive to Ach
Definition
Acetylcholine (Miochol)
Term
Stimulate ganglia, adrenal medulla, and skeletal muscle
SE: tremors, convulsions, respiratory paralysis, CTZ stimulant(nausea)
Definition
Nicotine
Term
Tests responsiveness of airway in asthmatics (M3R)
Definition
metacholine (provocholine)
Term
N and M effects
resistant to ACHE
Stimulate GI/Bladder (often after surgery)
Glaucoma
Miosis
Definition
Carbachol
Term
Selective M
resistant to ACHE
GI/Bladder stimulant
Urinary stimulant
SE: sweating, salivation, bronchospasm, accommodation problems
Definition
Bethanechol
Term
Natural alkaloid, M actions
Stimulates sweat, salivary, and gastric glands
Uses:glaucoma, GI, Xerostomia, looked at in AD.
Crosses BBB
Definition
Pilocarpine
Term
Natural alkaloid (betelnut)
N and M activity
Looked at in AD
No activity of ACHE
Definition
arecholine
Term
M activity
No activity of ACHE
from mushroom
Definition
Muscarine
Term
M3 agonist on salivary/lacrimal glands
Oral, long acting stimulation of salivation
Definition
Cevimeline
Term
natural alkaloid in Calaber bean
orally active, but only available as injection
Crosses BBB
Uses: mitotic in glaucoma, atropine toxicity
SE: M effects
Definition
Physostigmine
Term
Doesn't enter CNS
oral and injection
Uses: paralytic ileus, urinary retention, MG (short t1/2 multiple doses), reverse NM blockade
Definition
Neostigmine
Term
orally available
longer duration than neostigmine
uses: MG
narrow therapeutic index
Definition
ambenonium
Term
CNS selective
Uses: AD (doesn't stop prorgression)
QID
Hepatotoxicity limits use
Definition
Tacrine
Term
Similar to neostigmine
slower onset, longer duration, oral, injection
Uses: MG, Prophylactic to nerve gas, reverse NM blockade
Definition
Pyridostigmine
Term
Injection
Very short duration of action(10 minutes) b/c blocks anionic site (lacks carbamoyl grp)
Diagnosis of MG
Definition
edrophonium
Term
Used for AD
Daily dosing, no liver disease
Effective in up to 80%
may slightly slow progression
M side effects
Definition
Donepezil
Term
AD
BID dosing
SE: liver, GI, bronchoconstriction, drowsiness
About as effective as donepezil
Definition
Galantamine
Term
AD, BID
Selective for G1 isoform found mainly in brain.
SE: muscarinic (less b/c selective), hallucinations
Definition
Rivastigmine
Term
Treatment for organophosphate exposure (2 drugs)
1)blocks M actions of too much Ach
2) reacts w/ OP and pulls of enzyme
Definition
1)Atropine, 2)Pralidoxime(2-PAM)
Term
Belladonna alkaloid
Non-selective M blockade
Uses: mydriasis, bradychardia (due to inc. PS), GI hyperactivity, bronchodilation
Definition
Atropine
Term
Antidote for atropine overdose
Definition
physostigmine
Term
prophylaxis of motion sickness,
mydriasis, amnesia, CNS depression, "Twilight sleep"
Definition
scopolamine
Term
Bladder selective
for Overactive Bladder
Adverse effects: dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, QT prolongation
CI: glaucoma, gastroparesis, GI obstruction, urinary retention
Definition
Tolterodine, fesoterodine(prodrug)
Term
For urinary incontinence
SE: dry mouth, dry eyes
transdermal and gel formulations for less SEs
Definition
Oxybutynin
Term
As effective as oxybutynin but less SEs. 60% excreted by kidneys unchanged (can use in pts with liver problems, adjust does in impaired renal function)
Definition
Trospium
Term
Selective M3 antagonist-slightly more selective for bladder, less dry mouth and eye
CYP3A4 ints
Definition
solifenacin, darifenacin
Term
tremor in Parkinsons
Balance DA release(doesn't stop progression)
CNS excitation
(L-dopa only effective for ~10 yrs, so could use these first to treat tremor then L-dopa movement problems arise)
Definition
benztropin, trihexyphenidyl
Term
M1 selective
decrease acid secretion in GI
Definition
pirenzipine, telenzepine
Term
hypertensive crisis
controlled hypotension in surgery
hyperreflexia in spinal injuries
tourette's syndrome
cocaine, nicotine withdrawal
Definition
Mecamylamine
Term
depolarizing blocker, agonist
rapidly metabolized by esterases
fast onset, short duration
Definition
succinylcholine
Term
MOA: briefly activates N receptor (muscle fasciculations, bradycardia,then tachycardia). Desensitizes motor endplate
Definition
Succinylcholine
Term
Uses: surgery, intubations, fractures
electroshock
convulsive disorders
Definition
succinylcholine
Term
Side effects: Histamine release on rapid infusion (hypotension, bronchspasm)
K+ release (avoid with tissue damage..burns)
Malignant hyperthermia
Infants less sensitive
Definition
Succinylcholine
Term
Non-depolarizing antagonist
