Pharmacology exam 2

  1. Neurotransmitter released on both systems (sympathetic and parasympathetic) at the preganglionic area.
    Acetylcholine (Ach)
  2. Type of drug used topically to dilate the pupil during eye exam
    Alpha 1 agonist
  3. Drug that has urinary urgency as a common side effect
    Muscarinic Agonist
  4. At times of stress, what happens within the body
    Glycogen is broken down and glucose is mobilized
  5. A patient has given a medication that stimulates bladder contractions to increase urination (mictruition). What type of receptors have been stimulated.
    Muscarinic
  6. Where do the efferent pathways of the sympathetic division originate from as they leave the CNS
    Cranial and sacral regions
  7. In the PNS, which portions send nerve fibers to smooth muscle
    Sympathetic, Parasympathetic, but NOT voluntary.
  8. Which kind of drug might be used to delay absorption  of local anesthetic
    Alpha agonist
  9. Which receptor when inhibited slows heart rate and decreased force of contraction
    Beta 1
  10. useful in treating postoperative urinary retention
    Muscarinic agonist
  11. A possible side effect of adrenergic blocking agent is
    Asthmatic wheezing
  12. Adrenergic neurotransmitter and divides into these subtypes
    • - Norepinephrine
    • -  Alpha1 and 2
    • - Beta 1,2 and 3
  13. Cholinergic neurotransmitter and deivides into these subtypes:
    • - Acetylcholine
    • - Nicotinic
    • - Muscarinic
  14. Adrenergic receptor found in all sympathetic target organs except the heart. When stimulated constricts blood vessels and dilate pupils
    Alpha 1
  15. Adrenergic receptor found in presynaptic adrenergic nerve terminals. When stimulated inhibits release of Norepinephrine
    Alpha 2
  16. Adrenergic receptor found on heart and kidneys that increases heart rate, force of contraction and release of renin
    Beta 1
  17. Receptor found in all sympathetic target organs except the heart. When stimulated inhibits smooth muscle
    Beta 2
  18. Cholinergic receptor found in postganglionic neurons. Stimulates smooth muscle and gland secretions.
    Nicotinic
  19. 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
  20. With a cholinergic drug, sweating is considered a:
    Side effect.
  21. A beta blocking agent can be useful in treating or preventing
    Anginal pain
  22. A muscarinic agent/drug is one that has______effect
    parasympathetic-like
  23. Parkinson's disease may be treated with
    Anticholinergic drugs
  24. Drug that induces a loss of conciousness is a
    General analgesic
  25. Common therapeutic use for benzodiazepine is
    The treatment of anxiety disorders
