Question
Answer
show sympathetic (adrenergic) & Parasympathetic (Cholinergic)  
🗑
What does Sympathetic nervous system do   show
🗑
show "homeostatic"- brings HR, RR, and blood flow to muscles back to normal levels; returns GI function to normal; constricts pupils to normal size  
🗑
ANS drugs work by:   show
🗑
Cholinergic agents clinical uses:   show
🗑
show (direct-parasympathomimetic)- decrease glaucoma associated IOP, treats neurogenic keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eyes)  
🗑
metoclopramide (Reglan)   show
🗑
bethanechol   show
🗑
show (indirect-parasympathomimetic) commonly used as insecticide dips; may result in toxicity if used inappropriately; clinical signs= SLUDD  
🗑
show salivation, Lacrimation, Urination, Digestion, Defecation  
🗑
What are the adverse side effects of Cholinergic agents?   show
🗑
What are the clinical uses for anticholinergic drugs?   show
🗑
show drying of secretions and prevention of bradycardia before anesthesia  
🗑
show preanesthetic to dry respiratory secretions and prevent bradycardia, dilate pupils for examination, emergency drug (fastest onset, less duration than glycopyrrolate),  
🗑
show preanesthetic to dry respiratory secretions and prevent bradycardia, emergency drug (slower onset and longer duration of action than atropine)  
🗑
show treat OP intoxication  
🗑
show (dose related) drowsiness, disorientation, tachycardia, photophobia, constipation, anxiety, burning at injection site  
🗑
show simulate the action of sympathetic N.S; bring about action at receptors mediated by epi & norepi; classified according to specific receptor types activated (alpha and beta)  
🗑
show stimulate the heart to beat during cardiac arrest, reverse hypotension and bronchoconstriction of anaphylactic shock, strengthen the heart during CHF, correct hypotension through vasoconstriction, treat urinary incontinence, treat glaucoma  
🗑
how do adrenergic drugs treat glaucoma?   show
🗑
show (sympathomimetic)- stimulates all receptors to cause increase in HR and CO; dilation of blood vessels in muscle; dilation of bronchioles; increase metabolic rate  
🗑
show (sympathomimetic)- increase blood pressure  
🗑
show (sympathomimetic)- precursor of epi and norepi; treat shock and CHF; increases renal perfusion  
🗑
phenylpropanolamine   show
🗑
show (sympathomimetic)- short term treatment of heart failure  
🗑
What are the adverse side effects of adrenergic drugs?   show
🗑
What do adrenergic blocking agents (antiadrenergics/sympatholytics) do?   show
🗑
show (alpha blocker)-tranquillizer; causes vasodilation  
🗑
show (alpha blocker)- antidote for xylazine (tranquilizer) toxicity  
🗑
atipamezole (Antisedan)   show
🗑
show hypotension, tachycardia, muscle tremors  
🗑
show beta blocker; used to treat cardiac arrhythmias an hypertrophic cardiomyopathy  
🗑
show beta blocker; similar to propranolol  
🗑
timolol   show
🗑
show bradycardia, hypotension, worsening heart failure, bronchoconstriction, heart block, syncope  
🗑
show alter nerve impulses to tranquilize or sedate animals, control pain, induce anesthesia, prevent/control seizures, antagonize/reverse effects of some depressant drugs, stimulate the CNS to treat cardiac/ respiratory depression/arrest, perform euthanasia  
🗑
show means without sensation  
🗑
general anesthetics   show
🗑
show block nerve transmission in the area of application with no loss of consciousness; uses: nerve blocks, aid in endotracheal tube placement, ease skin irritation  
🗑
inhalant anesthetics   show
🗑
show reversible depression of the CNS, muscle relaxation, slight analgesia, respiratory depression, slight cardiac depression, decreased blood pressure, potentiate cardiac arrhythmias  
🗑
adverse affects of inhalant anesthetics   show
🗑
show measurement of the tendency of a liquid to evaporate  
🗑
blood-gas solubility coefficient   show
🗑
show measurement of the potency of an agent; how much agent is needed to attain surgical anesthesia; high MAC=less potent  
🗑
show topically to mucous membranes and the cornea, infiltration of a wound or joint, IV with continuous drip, injection around nervous tissue  
🗑
tranquilizers   show
🗑
sedatives   show
🗑
anti anxiety drugs   show
🗑
Purpose of phenothiazine tranquilizers   show
🗑
what is a precursor of epinephrine and norepinephrine   show
🗑
show acepromazine, chlorpromazine, prochlorperazine  
🗑
show profound hypotension (vasodilation), possible hypothermia, lower seizure threshold, protrusion of nictitating membrane, paraphimosis (horses only), bradycardia  
🗑
What do benzodiazepine derivatives do   show
🗑
show diazepam (Valium), midazolam (Versed), alprazolam (Xanax); Schedule IV controlled drugs  
🗑
show often used with ketamine for anesthesia, used for treatment of in process seizures  
🗑
show CNS excitement in dogs; overdose may cause excessive CNS depression  
🗑
show bind to alpha-2 receptors on neurons, reduces production of norepinephrine, absence of norepinephrine causes sedation; used of sedation, preanesthetic, analgesia, emetic in cats  
🗑
show analgesia, muscle relaxation, decreased response to stimuli  
🗑
dexmedetomidine (Dexdomitor)   show
🗑
biphasic BP response   show
🗑
show poor mm color and unreliable peripheral BP measurements  
🗑
show alpha-2 agonist; sedation, some analgesia, muscle relaxant, emesis (cats); side effects= profound bradycardia, hypotension, hypoventilation, cardiac arrhythmias, increase sensitivity to epinephrine; ruminants are more sensitive; reversal agent= yohimbine  
🗑
show alpha-2 agonist; used as sedative in horses, produces better analgesia than xylazine  
🗑
show alpha-2 agonist; used as a sedative and preanesthetic in horses, facilitates handling.  
🗑
barbituates   show
🗑
pentobarbital   show
🗑
show barbituate; long acting 8-12 hours; primary use= anticonvulsant; oral and injectable, plasma drug levels must be monitored frequently; schedule IV controlled drug  
🗑
thiopental   show
🗑
Euthanasia solutions   show
🗑
show alter neurotrans activity causing depression of thalamus & cerebral cortex; sedation, restraint, analgesia, anesthesia; produce muscle rigidity, respiratory depression, minor cardiac stimulation; ataxic & hyper responsive anesthesia induction & recovery  
🗑
ketamine (Ketaset)   show
🗑
tiletamine (Telazol= tiletamine with zolazepam)   show
🗑
show produce analgesia, sedation, and relieve anxiety, does not produce anesthesia; side effects= respiratory depression, excitement if given too rapidly; low doses= antitussive properties; produce effects by action on opiod receptors  
🗑
show found in pain regulating brain areas  
🗑
opiods: Kappa/Delta   show
🗑
show found in the brain  
🗑

🗑
show Mu-agonist, serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor  
🗑
opiod antagonists   show
🗑
neuroleptanalgesia   show
🗑
show can cause a state of CNS depression and analgesia and may/may not produce unconsciousness, combination products may be prepared by vet; ex: acepromazine + morphine, xylazine + butorphanol  
🗑
