NWTC Pharmacology Exam 2 – Comprehensive Study Guide and Exam Preparation
Material
Sympathetic effects - correct answer ✔✔Increases heart rate
Increased respiratory rate
Increases blood pressure
Pupils dilate
Decreases smooth muscle contraction
Increase of glycogen to glucose
Bronchodilates
vasoconstricts
effects of sympathetic blocking - correct answer ✔✔lowers HR, resp rate, BP
Pupils construct
bronchoconstricts
vasodilates
Parasympathetic effects - correct answer ✔✔lower HR, RESP RATE, BP
increase of peristalsis
vasodilates
pupils constrict
Increase of smooth muscle contraction
Increase of secretions
Bronchoconstricts
, Neurotransmitters of the autonomic nervous system - correct answer ✔✔acetylcholine and
norepinephrine
Acetylcholine - correct answer ✔✔neurotrasmitter of the ANS
cholinergic
associated with parasympathetic response
Norepinephrine - correct answer ✔✔adrenaline (adrenergic)
associated with sympathetic response
Alpha 1 receptors - correct answer ✔✔smooth muscle
constricts blood vessels
INCREASE BLOOD PRESSURE
DECREASE NASAL CONGESTION
A1 adrenergic agonists mimic actions of SNS norepi and epinephrine
A1 adrenergic blockers block the actions of the SNS by preventing norepi from producing a
sympathetic response EX: Lowers BP
*Alpha 2 receptors - correct answer ✔✔located on pre synaptic neuron
DECREASE neurotransmitter release
DECREASE BP
A2 adrenergics agonists: works like A1 antagonists
A2 adrenergics antagonists:
