Adrenergic Correct Answer Specific receptor sites located
through out the body for the endogenous sympathetic
neurotransmitters norepinephrine and epinephrine
Adrenergic drugs:
Common adverse effects Correct Answer - bradycardia with
reflux tachycardia
- postural and postexercise hypotension
- dry mouth
- drowsiness
- dizziness
- depression
- edema
- constipation
,- sexual dysfunction
Adrenergic drugs:
Contraindications Correct Answer - allergy
- acute heart failure
- concurrent use of MAOIs
- Severe mental depression
- peptic ulcer
- severe liver or kidney disease
Adrenergic drugs:
Interactions Correct Answer Can cause additive CNS
depression when taken with:
- alcohol
- benzodiazepines
- opioids
agonist Correct Answer Drugs with a specific receptor affinity
that mimic the body's natural chemicals
Albumin Correct Answer - A natural protein that is normally
produced by the liver.
- Only available IV
- Derived from human donors
Albumin: Contraindications Correct Answer -
hypersensitivity

- Pharyngitis
, Alpha blocker therapy
Therapeutic Effects Correct Answer Relaxation of GI smooth
muscle, contraction of the uterus and bladder, male ejaculation,
and contraction of pupillary muscles of the eye, which Causes
the pupils to dilate.
Alpha-adrenergic receptors Correct Answer A class of
adrenergic receptors that are further subdivided into alpha₁- and
alpha₂-adrenergic receptors
Alpha₁-adrenergic Correct Answer located on the
postsynaptic effector cells - the tissue, muscle, or organ that the
nerve stimulates
Alpha₂-adrenergic Correct Answer located on the presynaptic
nerve terminals
Amiodarone (Cordarone) Correct Answer - indicated for life-
threatening ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation
- prolong the effective refractory period
- prolong the myocardial action potential
- block both alpha- and beta-adrenergic cardiac stimulants
- one of the most effective antidysrhythmic drugs for controlling
supraventricular and ventricular dysrhythmias
Amiodarone (Cordarone):
Adverse Effects Correct Answer - lipophillic (fat-loving)
- can penetrate and concentrate in the adipose of any organ in
the body
-hypo- or hyperthyroidism
