  20. What is the receptor in Parasympathetic NS?
    • Cholinergic Receptor - 3 types
    • Muscarinic Receptors
    • Nicotinic I Receptors
    • Nicotinic II Receptors (this is in Somcati NS)
  21. Cholinergic Drug
    • Parathympathomimetic
    • 2 types: Direct Acting Cholinergic Drug & Indirect acting Cholinergic Drug
  22. Direct Acting Cholinergic Drug
    • These drugs act like Acetylcholine (ACH)
    • Bind to the Muscarinic receptors
    • Stimulate the Parasympatheic NS
  23. Indirect acting Cholinergic Drug
    • These drugs inhibit Acetycholinesterase (enzyme to degrete ACH)
    • As a result, increase of accumulate ACH
  24. Anticholinergics
    • Parasympathetic NS
    • Compete against ACH --> prevent ACH to bind to the receptors
  25. Acetylcholine (ACH)
    • Direct-acting Cholinergic Drug
    • Miotic in cataract surgery
  26. Pilocarpine
    • Direct-acting Cholinergic Drug
    • Gluacoma
  27. Bethanechol
    • Direct-acting Cholinergic Drug
    • Urinary retention
  28. Pyridostigmine
    • Indirect-acting Cholinergic Drug
    • Myasthenia gravis
  29. Ambenonium
    • Indirect-acting Cholinergic Drug
    • Myasthenia gravis
  30. Edrophonium
    • Indirect-acting Cholinergic Drug
    • Myasthenia gravis
  31. Atropine
    • Anticholinergic Drug
    • increase hear rate
  32. Scopolamine
    • Anticholinergic Drug
    • Motion Sickness
  33. Dicyclomine
    • Anticholinergic Drug
    • GI disorders such as Ulcers, Colitis
  34. Ganglionic Stimulants
    • Nicorette
    • Nicoderm
  35. Ganglionic Blocker
    • block both ACH and Nicotine
    • interfere with both sympathetic and parasympathetic NS
    • Decrease heart rate
    • Increase vasodilation
  36. Succinylcholine
    • Depolarizing Blockers (Alters NicotinicII receptor)
    • Somatic NS - Peripherally Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
  37. Tubocuramine
    • Non-depolarizing Blocker (Competitive to ACH, so that ACH cannot bind to the Nicotinic II receptors)
    • Somatic NS - Peripherally Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
  38. Metocurine
    • Non-depolarizing Blocker (competitive to ACH)
    • Somatic NS - Peripherally Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
  39. Pipecuronium
    • Non-depolarizing Blocker (competitive to ACH)
    • Somatic NS - Peripherally Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
  40. Dentrolene
    • Direct Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants --> prevent the sckeletal muscle fibers from contracting
    • Somatic NS - Peripherally Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
    • Only peripheralskeletal muscle relaxant given by PO (mouth)
  41. Baclofen
    • Centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxants (depressing the impulse conduction in spainal cord --> relax skeletal muscle
    • Somatic NS - Centrally Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
    • Does NOT interfere with Nicotinic II reseptors or muscle fibers
  42. Cyclobenzaprine
    • Centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxants (depressing the impulse conduction in spinal cord to relax skeletal muscle
    • Somatic NS - Centrally Acting Skeletal Muscle Relaxants
