Drugs called 'sympathomimetics'. Their mechanism of action is primarily on adrenergic receptors (i.e., the receptors that normally bind adrenalin).
Vasoconstriction is primarily controlled by the sympathetic nervous system.
The effects of the sympathetic nervous system are essential opposite those of the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system accelerates functions such as heart rate and breathing and the parasympathetic slows these bodily processes down. The sympathetic also inhibits digestion, whereas the parasympathetic stimulates digestion. The sympathetic nervous system produces "fight-or-flight" reactions, while the parasympathetic functions under relaxed conditions.
The sympathetic nervous system primarily causes vasoconstriction in the body.
The sympathetic nervous system prepares the body for fight or flight responses, while the parasympathetic nervous system helps the body rest and digest.
An increase in the sympathetic nervous system can lead to an increase in stroke volume. This is because the sympathetic nervous system stimulates the heart to beat faster and with more force, resulting in more blood being pumped out with each heartbeat.
The sympathetic nervous system causes dilation of the bronchioles. This can alleviate symptoms of an asthma attack.
