Neurotransmitter released on both systems (sympathetic and parasympathetic) at the preganglionic area.
Acetylcholine (Ach)
Type of drug used topically to dilate the pupil during eye exam
Alpha 1 agonist
Drug that has urinary urgency as a common side effect
Muscarinic Agonist
At times of stress, what happens within the body
Glycogen is broken down and glucose is mobilized
A patient has given a medication that stimulates bladder contractions to increase urination (mictruition). What type of receptors have been stimulated.
Muscarinic
Where do the efferent pathways of the sympathetic division originate from as they leave the CNS
Cranial and sacral regions
In the PNS, which portions send nerve fibers to smooth muscle
Sympathetic, Parasympathetic, but NOT voluntary.
Which kind of drug might be used to delay absorption of local anesthetic
Alpha agonist
Which receptor when inhibited slows heart rate and decreased force of contraction
Beta 1
useful in treating postoperative urinary retention
Muscarinic agonist
A possible side effect of adrenergic blocking agent is
Asthmatic wheezing
Adrenergic neurotransmitter and divides into these subtypes
- Norepinephrine
- Alpha1 and 2
- Beta 1,2 and 3
Cholinergic neurotransmitter and deivides into these subtypes:
- Acetylcholine
- Nicotinic
- Muscarinic
Adrenergic receptor found in all sympathetic target organs except the heart. When stimulated constricts blood vessels and dilate pupils
Alpha 1
Adrenergic receptor found in presynaptic adrenergic nerve terminals. When stimulated inhibits release of Norepinephrine
Alpha 2
Adrenergic receptor found on heart and kidneys that increases heart rate, force of contraction and release of renin
Beta 1
Receptor found in all sympathetic target organs except the heart. When stimulated inhibits smooth muscle
Beta 2
Cholinergic receptor found in postganglionic neurons. Stimulates smooth muscle and gland secretions.
Nicotinic
Receptor found in the heart and parasympathetic target organs other than the heart. When stimulated decreases HR and force of contraction and stimulate smooth muscle and gland secretions.
Muscarinic
With a cholinergic drug, sweating is considered a:
Side effect.
A beta blocking agent can be useful in treating or preventing
Anginal pain
A muscarinic agent/drug is one that has______effect
