1
how do pns antagonists function
competitive antagonists, selective for muscarinic receps! (dont work @ nico)

cause effects opposite of PNS activation
2
anticholinergic effect on heart
tachycardia
3
anticholinergic effect on vasculature
no fx; toxic doses can cause direct vasodilation
4
anticholinergic effect on sm m
GIT/GUT: relax, dec secretion/motility
lung: bronchial relax, dec bronchial secretions
eyes: mydriatic, cylopegic
5
anticholinergic effect on secretions
less secretion: dry mouth/skin
less gastric acid
less sweating (can be life threatening!)
6
anticholinergic effect on CNS
agitation, delirium, confusion, elderly more susceptible
7
anticholinergic/pns antagonist sfx
dry mouth
8
symptoms of antimuscarinic toxicity
caused by ingestion of toxic plants or OD

feels hot from less sweating, no thermoregulation (most lethal)
9
antimuscarinic toxicity tx
reversible cholinesterase inhibitors--physostigmine
10
atropine
anticholinergic drug in deadly nightshade
bronchodilation
^ HR; blocks xs ACh from reducing HR

tx: preanesthetic, injected IV for life thr bradycardia, topical mydriatic, antidote for antiAChE poison
11
glycopyrrolate
quaternary ammonium compound
no BBB no CNS
more selective at decreasing secretions vs. causing tachycardia
faster kinetics than atropine
12
scopolamine
jimson weed and shrooms
strong CNS possible due to M rc subtype selectivity

produces: antiemetic (motion sick), amnesia, euphoria/stim, hallucination, dec secretions

tx: motion sickness or drug of abuse
13
ipratropium
primary use in COPD as inhaler
14
ipratropium alternative
B2 agonist
