A) Sedation
|
,B) Weight gain

C) Blurred vision
| |
D)Orthostatic hypotension - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-C) Blurred Vision
| | | | | |
Blocking muscarinic cholinergic receptors can result in blurred vision, dry mouth,
| | | | | | | | | | |
constipation, and urinary hesitancy. Antagonism of the histamine1 receptors
| | | | | | | | |
causes sedation and weight gain. Blockage at the α1 receptors for norepinephrine
| | | | | | | | | | |
can affect vasodilation and a consequent drop in blood pressure, or orthostatic
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
hypotension. Antagonism of either α1 receptors or 5-HT2 receptors may result in
| | | | | | | | | | | |
ejaculatory dysfunction. |
Extrapyramidal side effects are the result of which one of the following?
| | | | | | | | | | |
