Urinary/Renal System Urinary CLASSIFICATION THERAPEUTIC MECHANISM OF ACTION ADVERSE EFFECTS DRUG EXEMPLARS USES Urinary Tract Treatment for Stimulates cholinergic receptors of the Cholinergic symptoms (flushing, bethanechol Stimulant urinary retention. GU tract causing: sweating, urinary urgency, N/V, (Urecholine) Post-op urinary a. relaxation of trigone muscle & hypotension) hesitancy. opening of urethral sphincter Promotes urination b. enhance detrusor muscle tone Cholinergic symptoms cause SLUDGE: and emptying of the which increases bladder pressure and Salivation, Lacrimation (excessive tear bladder more completely. creates strong urge to void. production), Urination, Defecation, GI upset, Emesis Urinary Tract Antispasmodic For control of Inhibits cholinergic receptors in the Related to blocking of the oxybutynin Anticholinergic overactive bladder bladder causing relaxation of detrusor parasympathetic system (Ditropan) (frequency, muscles. urgency, nocturia) These would be: dizziness, drowsiness, and anticholinergic symptoms: dry mouth, urinary retention, constipation, nausea, blurred vision, tachycardia), anaphylaxis, angioedema, photosensitivity, hyperthermia Beta-3 adrenergic Treatment of Acts as selective beta 3 adrenergic. dizziness, headache, angioedema, Mirabegron agonist overactive bladder Increases bladder capacity by relaxing increased BP, tachycardia, constipation, (Myrbetriq) detusor smooth muscle during storage diarrhea, nausea, UTI, nasopharyngitis phase of bladder fill void cycle.
