Four classes of long acting bronchodilators | 1. inflammatory mediators inhibitor 2. beta adrinergic agonists 3. leukotriene antagonists 4. phosphodiesterase inhibitors |
mediators that actively constrict smooth muscle (4) | histamine, seratonin, platelet activating factor, leukotrienes |
receptors that NE and Epi act on | beta 1 and 2; alpha 1 and 2 adrinergic receptors |
receptors that Ach acts on & ultimate effect in the airway | M1 and M2 receptors (smooth muscle contraction in airway) |
Digoxin | cardiac glycoside - increases contractlity by increasing intracellular [Ca++] tx-heart failure |
Dopamine | Dopamine agonist low doses: incr. CO, TPR, venous tone. High doses: incr. TPR, pulmonary vascular resistance, produces vasoconstriction |
positive inotropes | improve cardiac function by increasing contractility. drug classes: beta adrinergic, dopamine agonists, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, cardiac glycosides tx-heart failure |
cardiac antihypertensives | decrease afterload of heart. beta blockers, Ca++ channel blockers tx-HT, heart failure |
beta adrinergic agonists - prototype drugs (3) | isoproteronol (B1 and 2), Dobutamine (B1), Terbutaline (B2) |
Dobutamine | Beta 1 adrinergic agonist (cardioselective) tx-cardiogenic shock, heart failure |
Terbutaline | Beta 2 adrinergic agonist Tx- asthma, emphysema |
Isoproteronol | Beta 1 and 2 adrinergic agonist (not cardioselective) |
Milnirone | phosphodiesterase inhibitor (results in incresed Ca++ release) tx-heart failure, pulmonary problems |
Brimonidine | sympathomimetic - alpha 2 agonist tx. HT |
Norephinephrine | alpha 1 agonist - vasoconstrictor tx-hypovolemia |
prazosin | aplha 1 blocker (causes vasodilation) tx-HT |
Clonidine | alpha 2 antagonist - sympatholytic - tx-HT |
Furosemide | Diuretic - decr. blood volume tx-HT, edema, CHF, renal failure |
positive inotropes | increase contractility to increase BP (classes: Beta adrinergic and dopamine agonists) tx-circulatory shock |
mecamylamine | ganglionic blocker, nicotinic antagonist tx-severe hypertension (crisis), BP control during aortic surgery |
Tolcapone | COMT inhibitor - leads to incr. brain [dopamine] tx-parkinsons |
