Nondepolarizing NM blocking drugs
Tubocurarine, atracurium, mivacurium, pancuronium: all are competitive antagonists and compete with ACh for receptors. *Can release histamine and cause fall in BP, flushing, bronchoconsriction.
Reversal of blockage: neostigmine (must be given with atropine to prevent muscarinic effects like bradycardia), edrophonium, other cholinesterase inhibitors.
115
Zolpiedem, zaleplon, eszopiclone
BZ1 subtype of GABA receptor, reversed by flumazenil
Use: insomnia
SE: ataxia, HA, confusion. Short duration because of rapid metabolism by liver. Only modest day-after psychomotor depression and few amnestic effects. Less dependence.
116
Halothane, enflurane, isoflurane, sevoflurane, methoxyflurane, N2O
Effects: myocardial depression, respiratory depression, N/emesis, increased cerebral blood flow (decreased cerebral metabolic demand).
Toxicity: hepatotoxicity (halothane), nephrotoxicity (methoxyflurane), proconvulsant (enflurane), expansion of trapped gas in body (N2O).
Can cause malignant hyperthermia--inhaled anesthetics (except N2O) and succinylcholine induce fever and severe muscle contractions. Tx with dantrolene.
117
Midazolam
MC drug used for endoscopy. Short acting benzo. Can cause severe post op resp depression, decrease in BP, anterograde amnesia
118
Ketamine
PCP analogs that act as dissociative anesthetics. Block NMDA receptors. CV stimulants. Cause disorientation, hallucination, bad dreams, increases cerebral blood flow.
119
Propofol
Sedation in ICU, rapid anesthesia induction, short procedures. Less postop N than thiopental. Potentiates GABAa.
120
Baclofen
Inhibits GABAb receptors at the spinal cord level, inducing skeletal muscle relxation.
Use: muscle spasms
121
Cyclobenzprine
Centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxant. Structurally related to TCAs, similar anticholinergic side effets.
Use: muscle spasms
122
Parkinson drugs
BALSA
-Bromocriptine: ergot, DA agonist
-Amantadine: incr DA release and decr reuptake, also antiviral for influenza A and rubella. Toxicity = ataxia, livedo reticularis.
-L-dopa/carbidopa: carbidopa blocks peripheral conversion to dopamine by blocking DOPA decarboxylase. Reduces SE of peripheral L-dopa conversion too (N/V). Also entacapone/tolcapone block COMT.
-Selegiline (and COMT inhibitors): blocks breakdown centrally to increase DA. Selegiline blocks MAO-B, Tolcapone blocks COMT.
-Antimuscarinics: Benztropine--improves tremor and rrigidity but little effect on bradykinesia.
123
Alzheimer drugs
Memantine: NMDA receptor antagonist, prevent excitotoxicity (Ca). SE: Dizziness, confusion, hallucinations.
Donepezil, galantamine, rivastigmine, tacrine: AChE inhibitors. SE: N/dizziness, insomnia
124
Huntington disease drugs
NT changes in Huntington: decr GABA, Ach, incr DA
Tetrabenazine and reserpine: inhibit VMAT
Haloperidol: D2 receptor blocker
