Mode of action of NMBA? Select all that apply
Mode of action of NMBA? Select all that apply
- Inhibits cell wall synthesis and is bactericidal
- Produces effect at neuromuscular junction by interfering with action of Acetylcholine. (correct)
- Binds with Alpha and beta receptors to activate adrenegic effect that causes bronchodilator, vasodilation.
- Depolarizes the presynaptic and postsynaptic membrane or compete with Ach for binding at the receptors or make the receptors more sensitive for Ach. (correct)

What is the mechanism of action of Non-depolarizing agents?
1 Blocks the channel of postsynaptic cholinergic receptors by occupying channel pore
2 Affects the receptors from the internal side and reducing the channel opening
3 Open sodium channels and depolarize postsynaptic muscle membrane
5 Has a resistant to AchE, allowing persistent and longer duration of action
6 Competes with endogenous AcH for receptor occupancy.
