MCMP 407 l Mimic or block the effects of the two primary neurotransmitters, Acetylcholine and Norepinephrine/Epinephrine l Drugs that mimic neurotransmitters are referred to as “receptor agonists” HThese drugs activate receptors l Drugs that block neurotransmitters are referred to as “receptor antagonists” HThese drugs block the endogenous neurotransmitters from activating receptors How do drugs influence the ANS?

MCMP 407 l Parasympathetic nervous system Mimic acetylcholine = cholinergic = muscarinic agonists = parasympathomimetic Block acetylcholine = anticholinergic = muscarinic antagonist = parasympatholytic l Sympathetic nervous system Mimic norepinephrine = adrenergic = adrenergic agonist = sympathomimetic Block norepinephrine = antiadrenergic = adrenergic antagonist = sympatholytic Classification of drugs affecting the ANS
