Pharm Ch8

Cholinergic Pharm

QuestionAnswer
Blocks high-affinity transporter for choline (blocks Ach synthesis) Hemicholinium-3
Blocks Ach-H+ antiporter (prevents Ach storage) Vesamicol
Degrades synaptobrevin, prevents synaptic vesicle fusion w/ the axon terminal (presynaptic) membrane (inhibits Ach release) Botulinum toxin
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: noncovalent (reversible), rapid, lasts 2-10min (short-acting); Dx: muscle weakness d/t depolarizing blockade; Tx: Myasthenia gravis (MG), Eaton-Lambert syndrome Edrophonium
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: lasts 3-8 hrs, longer-acting AchE’s (for chronic Tx MG); Tx: ↓IOP (glaucoma), ↑GI motility, relieves abdominal distention Ambenonium Pyridostigmine Neostigmine Physostigmine
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: reverses anticholinergic drug poisoning Physostigmine
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: Irreversible d/t “aging” Diisopropyl fluorophosphate
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: strong nucleophile admin before “aging” to recover enzymatic AchE function Pralidoxime
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: rarely used d/t hepatotoxicity Tacrine
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: reversible, 100% bioavail, 3-5h Donepezil
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: “pseudo-irreversible” Rivastigmine
Acetylcholinesterase (AchE) Inhibitors: reversible, non-potentiating ligand of nicotinic receptors Galantamine
Tx, ADRs and CIs of AchE inhibitors? Tx: mild-moderate AD ADRs: N/V/D, flatulence, loose stools, anorexia, abdominal cramping CI: unstable cardiac disease, epilepsy, PUD
Muscarinic Receptor Agonists (parasympathomimetic): cardiac vagomimetic, unpredictable; only used to Dx asthma Methacholine
Muscarinic Receptor Agonists (parasympathomimetic): Tx: topical miotic, glaucoma (↓IOP) Carbachol
Muscarinic Receptor Agonists (parasympathomimetic): Tx: GI, urinary tract motility (post-op, post-partum, drug-related urinary retention), hypotonic neurogenic bladder Bethanechol
Muscarinic Receptor Agonists (parasympathomimetic): quaternary amine alkaloid, poor bioavailability Muscarine
Muscarinic Receptor Agonists (parasympathomimetic): most clinically used alkaloid, miotic agent, sialagogue (saliva-inducing), Tx: xerostomia (dry mouth) Pilocarpine
Muscarinic Receptor Agonists (parasympathomimetic): M1/M3 agonist, Tx: xerostomia in Sjogren’s syndrome Cevimeline
Nicotinic Receptor (nAchR) Agonist: induces flaccid paralysis in surgery via depolarizing blockade, can be unpredictable Succinylcholine
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): Tx: induces mydriasis, reverse sinus bradycardia, inhibit excessive salivation and mucus secretion (surgery), counteract mushroom muscarine poisoning Atropine
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): ADRs: anterograde amnesia, inattention; Tx: motion sickness, nausea (chemotherapy) Scopolamine
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): quaternary amine antimuscarinics (low CNS penetration); Tx: PUD, decrease GI spasm, prevent bradycardia, decrease oral secretions Methscopolamine Glycopyrrolate
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): M1/M4, Tx: PUD Pirenzepine
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): quaternary ammonium, Tx: COPD Ipratropium
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): bronchodilator, Tx: COPD Tiotropium
Nonspecific Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): Tx: overactive bladder; ADRs: tachycardia, delirium, hallucinations, seziures, blurred vision (cycloplegia/mydriasis); CI: patients with glaucoma, BPH Oxybutynin Propantheline Trospium Tolterodine Terodiline
Muscarinic Receptor Antagonists (sympathomimetic): newer selective M3; less dry mouth and constipation Darifenacin, Solifenacin
Nicotinic Receptor Antagonists: Nondepolarizing competitive NM blockade; ADRs: muscular paralysis (reversed by AchE inhibitors): very long-lasting D-tubocurarine Pancuronium
Nicotinic Receptor Antagonists: Nondepolarizing competitive NM blockade; ADRs: muscular paralysis (reversed by AchE inhibitors): intermediate Vecuronium Rocuronium
Nicotinic Receptor Antagonists: Nondepolarizing competitive NM blockade; ADRs: muscular paralysis (reversed by AchE inhibitors): rapidly degraded Mivacurium

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
