H2, B1, B2, V2, D1
What receptors are associated with Gi?
M2, α2, D2
Bethanechol
-Direct cholinergic agonist
-Activates bowel and bladder smooth muscle
,-Used in postoperative and neurogenic ileus
-Resistant to AChE
Carbachol
-Direct cholinergic agonist
-Carbon copy of acetylcholine
-Constricts pupils and relieves intraocular pressure in glaucoma
Methacholine
-Direct cholinergic agonist
-Stimulates muscarinic receptors in airways when inhaled
-Used as a challenge test for diagnosis of asthma
Pilocarpine
-Direct cholinergic agonist
-Contracts ciliary muscle of eye (open angle glaucoma), contracts pupillary sphincter
(closed angle glaucoma)
-Potent stimulator of sweat, tears and saliva
-AChE resistant
Donepezil
-Anticholinesterse - increases ACh
-Alzheimer disease
Galantamine
-Anticholinesterse - increases ACh
-Alzheimer disease
Rivastigmine
-Anticholinesterse - increases ACh
-Alzheimer disease
Edrophonium
-Anticholinesterse - increases ACh
-Historically used to diagnose myasthenia gravis (MG is now diagnosed by anti-AChR
Ab test.
Neostigmine
-Anticholinesterse - increases ACh
-Used in postoperative and neurogenic ileus and urinary retention, myasthenia gravis,
and postoperative reversal of neuromuscular junction blockade
Physostigmine
-Anticholinesterse - increases ACh
-Used in anticholinergic toxicity
-Crosses the blood-brain barrier (CNS)
Pyridostigmine
-Anticholinesterse - increases ACh
-Increases muscle strength
-Used in myasthenia gravis (long acting)
-Does not penetrate CNS
Atropine
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Used in bradycardia and for ophthalmic applications
-Also used as antidote for cholinesterase inhibitor poisoning
,-Actions include increase pupil dilation, cycloplegia, decreased airway secretions,
decreased acid secretions, decreased gut motility, decreased bladder urgency in cystitis
-Toxicity: increased body temp (due to decreased sweating), rapid pulse, dry mouth, dry
and flushed skin, cycloplegia, constipation, disorientation;
-Can cause acute angle-closure glaucoma in elderly (due to mydriasis), urinary
retention in men with prostatic hyperplasia, and hyperthermia in infants
-See also homatropine and tropicamide
Benztropine
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Works in CNS
-Used in Parkinson disease and acute dystonia
Glycopyrrolate
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Parental use: preoperative use to reduce airway secretions
-Oral use: drooling, peptic ulcer
Hyoscyamine
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Antispasmodics for IBS
Dicyclomide
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Antispasmodics for IBS
Ipratropium
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Used in COPD and asthma
Tiotropium
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Used in COPD and asthma
Oxybutynin
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Reduced bladder spasms and urge urinary incontinence
Solifenacin
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Reduced bladder spasms and urge urinary incontinence
Tolterodine
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Reduced bladder spasms and urge urinary incontinence
Scopalamine
-Muscarinic antagonist
-Motion sickness
Tetrodotoxin
-Poisoning can result from ingestion of poorly prepared puffer fish (exotic sushi)
-Highly potent toxin that binds fast voltage-gated Na+ channels in cardiac and nerve
tissue, preventing depolarization - blocks action potential without changing resting
potential (same mechanism as Lidocaine)
-Causes nausea, diarrhea, paresthesias, weakness, dizziness, loss of reflexes.
-Treatment is primarily supportive.
, Ciguatoxin
-Consumption of reef fish (e.g. barracuda, snapper, eel...)
-Causes ciguatera fish poisoning.
-Opens Na+ channels causing depolarization. Symptoms easily confused with
cholinergic poisoning.
-Temperature-related dysesthesia (e.g., "cold feels hot; hot feels cold") is regarded as a
specific finding of ciguatera.
-Treatment is primarily supportive.
Scombroid poisoning
-Caused by consumption of dark-meat fish (e.g., bonito, mackerel, mahi-mahi, tuna)
improperly stored at warm temperature.
-Bacterial histidine decarboxylase converts histidine to histamine. Histamine is not
degraded by cooking.
-Acute-onset burning sensation of the mouth, flushing of face, erythema, urticaria,
pruritus, headache. May cause anaphylaxis-like presentation (i.e., bronchospasm,
angioedema, hypotension).
-Frequently misdiagnosed as allergy to fish.
-Treat supportively with antihistamines; if needed, antianaphylactics (e.g.,
bronchodilators, epinephrine).

predominate at high doses.
Epinephrine
-β > α direct agonist
-Uses: anaphylaxis, asthma, open-angle glaucoma;
α effects predominate at high doses. Significantly stronger effect at β2-receptor than
norepinephrine.
Isoprterenol
-β1 = β2 direct agonist
-Uses: electrophysiologic evaluation of tachyarrhythmias. Can worsen ischemia
Norepinephrine
-α1 > α2 > β1 direct agonist
