cholinomimeticsdrugs

cholinomimetics drugs

questionAnswer
direct acting cholinoceptor stimulants Acetylcholine, bethanechol, pilocarpine, cevimeline, varenicline
Indirect-acting cholinomimetics neostigmine, physostigmine, pyridostigmine, ambenonium, demecarium, edrophonium, tacrine, donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine, echothiophate, parathion, malathion, sarin, soman
AchE regenerator Pralidoxime(PAM)
Inhibitors of synaptic vesicle function Botulinum Toxin
ACH MOA Activates Muscarinic and Nicotinic cholinergic receptors. Facilitates both parasympathetic (Muscarinic and Nicotinic) and sympathetic (Nicotinic ganglionic) transmission
ACH kinetics Short half life. Rapidly metabolized by AChE (5-20sec) Poor oral absorption (quaternary amine). Given IV
ACH toxicity and uses toxicity: autonomic excess uses: gluacoma
Bethanechol, pilocarpine, cevimeline MOA Muscarinic receptor specific. Increases parasympathetic activity
bethanechol kinetics quaternary amine, oral or SC
Bethanechol clinical uses Treats various GI disorders postoperative and neurogenic ileus, Urinary retention. Activates bowel and bladder smooth muscle
Bethanechol, pilocarpine, cevimeline, carbachol toxicity Muscarinic excess, so symptoms of sweating, bradycardia, increased bowel activity, urination, blurred vision, miosis, etc.
pilocarpine kinetics tertiary amine
pilocarpine clinical use glaucoma. See explanation with Carbachol, Sjogren's Disease (autonimmune distruction of secretory glands)
cevimeline kinetics oral
cevmeline clinical use Dry mouth from Sjögren syndrome (oral)
carbachol MOA Muscarinic and Nicotinic receptor activation
carbachol kinetics quaternary amine
carbachol clinical use glaucoma (ophthalmic solution and drops). Works by activating ciliary muscle of eye –opens canal of Schlemm (open angle) pupillary sphincter (narrow angle)
varenicline MOA partial agonist to CNS a4,b2 type Nicotinic receptor
varenicline kinetics tertiary amine
varenicline clinical use smoking cessation treatment
varenicline toxicity nausea, headache, sleep disturbances, neuropsychiatric effects (mood changes, suicidal ideations, etc.)
neostigmine, physostigmine, pyridostigmine, ambenonium, denecarium, Edrophonium, tacrine, donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine MOA Reversible AChE inhibitor, produce increase in synaptic released Ach which can activate its post-synaptic receptors
neostigmine kinetics Oral or parenteral, half life .5-2 hrs, duration of action medium
neostigmine clinical uses Myasthenia Gravis, paralytic ileus, urinary bladder atony
neostigmine, physostigmine, pyridostigmine, ambenonium, demecarium, edrophonium, tacrine, donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine, echothiophate, parathion, malathion, sarin, soman TOXICITY DUMBBELSS, diarrhea, urination, miosis, bronchospasm, bradycardia, Excitation, lacrimation, sweating, salivation
Physostigmine Kinetics ophthalmic or parenteral, half life .5-2 hrs (medium duration), tertiary amine, distributed throughout body, absorbed through skin
Physostigmine clinical uses atropine poisoning (IM or slow IV), glaucoma (ophthalmic ointment)
pyridostigmine kinetics oral or parenteral, half life 3-6 hours
pyridostigmine, Ambenonium clinical uses Myasthenia Gravis
ambenonium kinetics Oral, half life 4-8 hours, quaternary amine
Demecarium Kinetics ophthalmic, half life 4-6 hours, quaternary amine
Demecarium clinical uses Glaucoma (Opthalmic drop)
Edrophonium kinetics Parenteral, short duration (minutes) quaternary amine
Edrophonium clinical uses test for Myasthenia Gravis
Tacrine, Donepezil, Galantamine, Rivastigmine Kinetics Oral, tertiary amines
Tacrine, Donepezil, Galantamine, Rivastigmine Clinical uses Help with cognitive dysfunction of Alzheimer's
Echothiophate, parathion, malathion, sarin, soman MOA organophosphate, irreversible inhibitor of AChE, Activation of Nicotinic and Muscarinic receptors via Ach increase
Echothiphate kinetics Ophthalmic powder, long duration 100 hours, quaternary amine
Echothiophate clinical uses glaucoma (opthalmic powder)
Parathion and malathion kinetics and clinical uses Insecticide
Sarin and soman kinetics and clinical uses nerve toxin- excitotoxcity and death
Pralidoxime (PAM) MOA:displaces organophosphates from AChE active site, prevents aging kinetics: given withen 48 hours until symptoms abate (days)
pralidoxime clinical doses Clinical uses:severe organophosphate insecticide poisoning in which respiratory depression, muscle weakness, and/or twitching are severe.(given early approx 48 hour window)
Pralidoxime toxicity CV: tachycardia, hypertension, pain on injection, Muscle rigidity, weakness, transient increases in ALT and AST, Rash, nausea, dizziness, headache, decreased renal function
Botulinum toxin MOA:cleaves synaptic vesicle protein synaptobrevin preventing docking and fusion of acetylcholine vesicles kinetics:injected locally clinical uses and toxicity: nerve paralysis
