Question

what are all adrenergic drugs with indications and adverse effects

Answer 1

1) An adrenergic agonist is a drug that stimulates a response from the adrenergic receptors. The five main categories of adrenergic receptors are: α₁, α₂, β₁, β₂, and β₃, although there are more subtypes, and agonists vary in specificity between these receptors, and may be classified respectively.

2) INDICATIONS :-

* Heart block

* Treatment of asthma Eg.Salbutamol

* Hypertension,Cardiogenic shock

* Used for prolongation of local anesthetic action by vasoconstriction.Eg.Adrenaline.

* To control bleeding Eg. Adrenaline.

* As nasal decongestant Eg. Oxymethaoline

* Inhibition of uterine contraction.Eg. Nylidrine

3) The adverse effects seen with adrenergic drugs are broad. The most common side effects are changes in heart rate and blood pressure. Selective binding to beta-1 receptors commonly causes tachycardia, palpitations, and hypertension. Tachyarrhythmias and anxiety can also be common.
