What are alpha receptor antagonists?
If they are also known as alpha-adrenergic blocking drugs (i'm not sure if they are), then they prevent norepinephrine from producing sympathetic responses.
What medical products may result from research into transgenic plants and animals?
they are used in biological and medicine reason , product of pharmaceutical drugs, experimental medicine and agriculture
What are the characteristics of an abnormal tilt table test?
Abnormal results include any pathologic reactions to the position changes or sensitivity enhancing techniques, such as the administration of isoproterenol or other related drugs.
What is ionized and non ionized drug?
IonizedSome drugs are made up of several elements combined to make the drug which has no charge (neither plus or minus). If these drugs can be ionized, they can split into two parts. One of the parts carries a plus charge (+) while the other part has a negative charge (-). A simple example is table salt or sodium chloride (NaCl) which can become ionized in water. NaCl is an inorganic compound.NaCl = Na+ + Cl-[the pluses and minuses should be positioned higher like the number for a footnote]NonionizedOther types of drugs such as organic compounds don't ionize. The molecules in their structures are stuck together in such a way that they do not separate into parts. An example of a nonionized compound is benzene.
What is the difference between chemical drugs and plant drugs?
Chemical drugs are designed in a laboratory, so they are synthetic. Examples of these drugs are XTC, LSD and the newer designer drugs like 2-CB and Ketamine. Plant drugs are drugs fabricated from natural sources, like cocaine is made from the leaves of the coca plant, and how weed is a plant.
How can adrenergic drugs be structurally modified to be beta 2 selective?
The amino group of the adrenergic drug can be substituted with a bulkier amino substituents to enhance beta activity. OH groups can also be added to positions 3 and 5 of the benzene ring of the drug to cause beta 2 selectivity.
What does substitution of the amino group of adrenergic drugs result in?
Since the alkyl substituent is made bulkier, the beta activity of the drug will be enhanced.
What is a anti-adrenergic drug?
Antiadrenergic drugs decrease or block effects of sympathetic nerve stimulation, endogenous catecholamines (e.g. epinephrine), and adrenergic drugs.
What are the most common side effects of Adrenergic Drugs?
The most common side effects of adrenergic amines are nervousness, agitation, and wakefulness
How beta adrenergic drugs cause diabetes?
increase bp and heart rate
What prescription drugs is benzene found in?

What has the author Tsuneyoshi Tanabe written?
Tsuneyoshi Tanabe has written: 'Cardiac glycosides and adrenergic activity' -- subject(s): Physiological effect, Drugs, Adrenergic mechanisms, Glucosides, Heart
How can adrenergic drugs stimulate the adrenergic nerves?
This is done through several mechanisms: - Stimulating noradrenaline to be released - Mimicking noradrenaline's action on the receptors -Preventing noradrenaline to be broken down and reuptaken
What are alpha1-adrenergic blockers?
Alpha1-adrenergic blockers are drugs that work by blocking the alpha1-receptors of vascular smooth muscle, thus preventing the uptake of catecholamines by the smooth muscle cells.
What drugs decrease ADH levels?
Drugs that decrease ADH levels include alcohol, beta-adrenergic agents, morphine antagonists, and phenytoin (Dilantin).
Why are adrenergic agonists used as ophthalmic drugs?
They work on the eye the same way as the nasal decongestants. A-adrenergic receptors are stimulated on small arterioles in the eye and conjuctival congestion is temporarily relieved through arteriolar vasoconstriction.
What drugs can impair glucose absorption?
Several drugs that are used to treat mood disorders (such as anxiety and depression) also can impair glucose absorption. These drugs include haloperidol, lithium carbonate, phenothiazines, tricyclic antidepressants, and adrenergic agonists
