2) Cardiovascular system
Most prominent effect of atropine is to cause tachycardia.
Due to blockage of M2 receptor on SA node through which vagal tone decreases heart rate.
3) Blood pressure
Cholinergic impulses are not involved in maintenance of vascular tone, it has no effect on blood pressure.
4) Eye
Causes mydriasis, cycloplegia, results in photophobia and blurring of vision
5) Smooth muscle
All visceral smooth muscles are relaxed so constipation may occur spasm main relieved
Ureter and urinary bladder may relax so urinary retention may occur elderly
6) Glands
Decrease sweat, salivary, trachiobronchial and lacrimation.
Decrease secretion of gastric content but relatively large dose needed compared to H2-blocker
2) Antispasmodic
Decrease intestinal, renal colic, abdominal cramps
Effective in biliary colic
Drugs-induced diarrhea
Spastic constipation
To relieve urinary frequency and urgency
3) Bronchial asthma
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
They are bronchodialator, less effective than adrenergic drug
4) As mydriatic and cycloplegic
For testing error of refraction both mydriatic cycloplegia are needed, so homatropine, tropicamide was needed, cyclopentolate, atropine or hyoscine may be used
For fundoscopy only mydriatic needed, phenylephrine is pretended.
Atropine is very valuable in treatment of iritis, iridocyclitis, keratitis corneal ulcer
5) Cardiac
Atropine useful in counter-acting bradycardia and partial heart block selected patient
6) For Central action
Ipratropium Bromide:
Used for asthmatic patients
Through inhalation acts on bronchial muscle without altering volume or consistency of respiratory secretions
It has gradual onset and late peak of bronchodilator effect so suitable for regular prophylactic use. So rather than symptomatic relief in an attack
Action lasts for 4 to 6 hours. more effective in COPD then in bronchial asthma
Local side effects
Dryness of eyes
Dry and hot skin
Scratching in trachea
Dilated pupil
Photophobia
Cough
Uses
1) Antisecretory
As preanesthetic medication
In peptic ulcer
To check excessive sweating and salivation in parkinsonism
Previously, irritant general anaesthesia (ether) are used which increase salivation, trachiobronchial secretions so atropine and hyoscine are used
Atropine is used to prevent laryngospasm by decreasing respiratory secretions that reflexly predispose to laryngospasm
Vasovagal attack during anaesthetic also prevented
Peptic ulcer: Atropine decrease gastric secretion
a) Parkinsonism
Less effective than levodopamine
b) Motion sickness
Hyoscine is preferred
Transdermal preparation applied behind pinna 4 hr before journey for protection
Contraindications
In hot, in narrow iridocorneal angle
Causations used in elderly patient with BPH.
Adverse effects
Dry mouth
Difficult in swelling and talking
Dry and hot skin
Dilated pupil and photophobia
Local anaesthetics
There are the drugs which act upon topical application or local injection cause reversible loss of sensory perception, specially of pain in a restricted area of body, they block conduction of nerve without causing any structural damage.
Classification
1. Injectable
Short duration— procaine, chloroprocaine
Intermediate duration— lignocaine
Long duration— tetracaine, bupivacaine
2. Surface
Cocaine
Lidocaine
Section 1 Pharmacology
19
Tetracaine
Benzocaine
Oxithazaine
Butamben
Mechanism of action
Local anaesthetic block nerve conduction by decrease the entry of sodium during action potential. As the concentration of local anaesthetics is increased, rate of action potential and maximum depolarization decrease causing slowing of conduction.
Pharmacological action
1. CNS: All local anaesthetic stimulation followed by depression cocaine is a powerful CNS stimulant
Euphoria, excitement, mental confusion tremors
convulsion, unconsciousness respiratory depression and death.
2. CVS: Cardiac depressant, they decrease automaticity, excitability, contractibility, conductivity and increase effective refractory period
Side effect
CNS: Light headedness, dizziness, auditory and visual disturbance, tremor, convulsion, respiration arrest. This is prevented and treated by diazepam
CVS: Bradycardia, hypotension, vascular collapse, hypersensitivity reaction rashes, angioedema, dermatitis, asthma, anaphylaxis
Uses
Surface anaesthesia produced by lignocaine, benzocaine
Infiltration
Conduction block (intravenously in the trunk)
Spinal anaesthesia complications a) Headache due to seepage of CSF b) Cause equina syndrome, loss of control over bladder
and bowel, especially septic meningitis
c) Respiratory paralysis
Epidermal thoracic, lumbar, sacral
Type of anaesthesia
1. Surface anaesthesia
z
It is produced by topical application of local anaesthetics to mucous membrane and skin
z
It is produced by lignocaine, benzocaine and it is topically applied in mouth for stomatitis (inflammation of mucous membrane)
2. Infiltration anaesthesia
z
Local anaesthesia is infiltrated subcutaneously in area of operation
z
Here, endings are anesthetized by their direct exposure to drug
z
Onset of action is immediate
z
2% procaine and 2% lignocaine commonly used
z
This anaesthesia is used in incision, excision
3. Conduction block
z
Intravenously in a nerve trunk
z
It is of 2 types: a) Field block: Dental procedure b) Nerve block: Used for tooth extraction
4. Spinal anaesthesia
z
Local anaesthesia is injected in supraachnoid space between L2-3 or L3-4.
z
This anaesthesia is used for operation of lower limb, caesarean section
5. Epidural anaesthesia
z
It is produced when local anaesthesia is injected outside drug
z
Lignocaine and bupivacaine are commonly used in epidural anaesthesia
Uses
It is used in surface anaesthesia
It is used n nerve block
It is given subcutaneously in field block
It is used in dental procedures
It is used in epidural anaesthesia
It is used in spinal anaesthesia
It is used as antiarrhythmic agent
Idea on myasthenia gravis
It is an autoimmune disorder due to development of antibodies directed to nicotinic receptors at the muscle end plate
reduction in number of NM cholinoceptors and structural damage to the neuromuscular junction
weakness and easy fatigue ability. Neostigmine and its congeners improve muscle contraction by increasing ACh released from prejunction endings to accumulate and acts on receptor over a larger area, and by directly depolarizing the end plate.
Treatment: It is started with neostigmine 15 mg orally 6 hourly dose and frequency is then adjusted according to response. Corticosterod is afforded considerable improvement in such cases by their immunosuppressant action, but their long-term use has problems of its own.
Thymectomy produces gradual improvement in majority of cases. Even complete remission can be achieved. It is becoming increasingly popular. Overtreatment with anti-AChEs also produces weakness by causing persistent depolarization of muscle end plate, this is called cholinergic crisis or weakness.
