1
Selective B1 Receptor blockers that may be useful in treating cardiac conditions in patients with asthma
Acebutolol, atenolol, esmolol, metoprolol
2
These agents decrease blood flow or increase blood pressure, are local decongestant, and used in therapy of spinal shock (temporary maintenance of blood pressure which may help maintain perfusion)
Alpha1 agonists
3
Produce mydriasis and cycloplegia
Atropine and other anti-muscarinic agents
4
Treat manifestations of Parkinson's disease and EPS
Benztropine, trihexyphenidyl
5
This agent has greater affinity for muscarinic receptors and used for postoperative and neurogenic ileus and urinary retention
Bethanechol
6
MOA action of cromolyn
Blocks opening of Cl channels to prevent mast cell degranulation
7
Toxicity of cholinergics
DUMBELSS (diarrhea, urination, miosis, bronchoconstriction, excitation of skeletal muscle and CNS, lacrimation, salivation, and sweating)
8
Alpha 1 agonist toxicity
Hypertension
9
Bronchodilation in asthma and COPD

10
Muscarinic antagonist used in COPD
Ipratropium, tiotropium
11
Selective Alpha 1 blocker used for hypertension, BPH, may cause first dose orthostatic hypotension
Prazosin, terazosin, doxazosin
12
Treatment of motion sickness
Scopolamine
13
This beta blocker lacks local anesthetic activity (decreases protective reflexes and increases the risk of corneal ulceration) and used in treating glaucoma
Timolol
14
These Beta blockers decrease aqueous secretion
Timolol (nonselective), betaxolol (selective)
15
Pneumonic for beta receptors
You have 1 heart (Beta 1) and 2 lungs (Beta 2)
16

17
Acetaminophen only has what activity?
Antipyretic and analgesic activity
18
Some side effects of corticosteroids

19
Agent used for closure of patent ductus arteriosus

20
Antidote for acetaminophen toxicity
N-acetylcysteine
21
Used in pediatrics to maintain patency of ductus arteriosis
PGE1 (Alprostadil)
22
Prostaglandin used as 2nd line treatment of erectile dysfunction
PGE1 (Alprostadil)
23
Inhibitor of lipoxygenase
Zileuton
24
Captopril and enalapril (-OPRIL ending) are
