PHARMACOLOGY Lecture: Adrenergic drugs OBJECTIVES: Identify the classification of adrenergic agonists Describe pharmacokinetics and dynamics of adrenergic agonists Differentiate between the actions of a and b-adrenoceptors agonists List the clinical uses of adrenergic agonists. know adverse effects & contraindications of adrenergic agonists Identify one specific adrenergic agonist for each of the following special uses: Hypotensive states, shock, heart failure, heart decompensation, asthma, premature labour…ect.. Terminology: Chronotropic = increase cardiac output Inotropic = increase cardiac force of contraction Dromotropic = increase conduction velocity Tocolytics (anti-contraction) are medications used to suppress premature labor. Extravasation: leakage of drug from the vessel into tissues surrounding the injection site Adrenaline = epinephrine (E) Noradrenaline (NA) = norepinephrine (NE)  Important.  Extra notes.  Neurotransmission at adrenergic neurons Adrenergic transmission: Note: Adrenergic neurons 1) Synthesis of norepinephrine release norepinephrine as the 2) Storage of norepinephrine in vesicles primary neurotransmitter. 3) Release of norepinephrine 4) Binding to post synaptic receptors 5) Ending the action of NE by: Neuronal reuptake into neuron Monoamine oxidase (MAO) in neuronal mitochondria Catechol -O-methyl transferase (COMT) in synaptic space  Adrenergic receptors Adrenergic receptors Dopaminergic a-adrenoceptors b-adrenoceptors receptors a1 a2 b1 b2 b3 e.g. D1 α1 β2 β1 β3 Post-synaptic excitatory in function (cause inhibitory in function excitatory in In adipose contraction) except in GIT.

(Positive feed back mechanism).  Adrenergic agonist: Adrenergic agonist “sympathomimetics” : Drugs that produce an effect similar to that obtained by stimulation of the sympathetic nervous system. Sympathetic actions:  Mydriasis (dilatation of eye pupil)  Increase heart rate.  Bronchodilation  Inhibit peristalsis of GIT and secretion.  Relaxation of GIT muscles (constipation).  Relaxation of urinary bladder.  Relaxation of the uterus (Delay premature labor)  Increase conversion of glycogen to glucose (hyperglycemia) Major effects mediated by α- and β-adrenoceptors:  Classification of Adrenergic agonist: They are classified according to: 1. Chemistry: Catecholamines Non-Catecholamines Rapidly acting Delayed action Have short half-life, due to rapid degradation by Have Long half-life, because they resist MAO & COMT degradation by MOA &COMT in GIT Have catechol ring Lack catechol ring water soluble (polar) ,thus not effective orally Lipid soluble , thus Effective orally and Cross BBB and have Poor penetration to CNS well , have Prominent CNS effects Parenterally administered Orally administered e.g. Natural: NE, E, Dopamine e.g. Ephedrine, amphetamine, phenylephrine, Synthetic: Isoprenaline, dobutamine methoxamine, salbutamol, ritoderine 2.
