1. Formation of False transmitters (alpha-2 ): α- (a-methyl tyrosine( -False: Means released instead of NE (norepinephrine). -Acts centrally as α2 receptor agonist to inhibit NE release. -DRUG OF CHOICE in pregnancy hypertension (pre-eclampsia - gestational hypertension). 2. Deplete storage: - (not used anymore(. 3. Inhibition of release & enhance uptake: -Gaunethidine (not used anymore). 4. Stimulation of presynaptic α2 receptors: - & α- Methyldopa Note that Clonidine acts like α- Methyldopa as in pregnancy, but it has a limited use due to it’s rebound hypertension (withdrawal symptoms after you stop or decrease the drug dose)

Apraclonidine (A derivative that doesn't affect blood pressure – used topically as eye drops in treating open angle glaucoma by decreasing aqueous humor formation (. α -receptor Antagonists

1. Non- selective antagonists (a1 & a2):

Pharmacokineti Therapeutic ADRs cs use - Postural • before removal of (form • Irreversible Pheochromocytom of low blood pressure Phenoxybenzami • Long-acting a to prevent that happens when Hypertensive you stand up from ne (24 hours) sitting or lying down). crisis . - Reflex Tachycardia (due to the fall in BP, mediated by baroreceptor* reflex and due to α2 block in heart).

Before removal of - Headache - Pheochromocytoma Nasal stiffness or (tumor in the congestion • Reversible - adrenal medulla that Vertigo & • Short-acting cause increase drowsiness - (4 hours) secretion of Male sexual norepinephrine and dysfunction inhibits ejaculation epinephrine). - - Increase cardiac output (α2 block - Decrease peripheral .

Note : Both drugs can precipice(cause) arrhythmias and angina. Contra-indicated in: patients with decreased coronary perfusion*.

*baroreceptor reflex is one of the body's homeostatic mechanisms that helps to maintain blood pressure at nearly constant levels. *Coronary perfusion pressure (CPP): pressure gradient that drives coronary blood pressure, meaning the difference between the diastolic aortic pressure and the right atrial diastolic pressure. α -receptor Antagonists

2. α1- selective antagonists: Pharmacokinetic Therapeutic use ADRs s & Mechanism • • Fall in arterial (Short half-life) pressure with -Used in Raynaud’s less tachycardia disease*: induce than with non- peripheral selective vasodilatation. - Hypertension , especially with prostate enlargement (Long half-life) Like Non- Uroselective: As α1 selective but receptors present in with a lesser prostate so when Selectively used degree tamsulosin binds to the in Benign receptor, it produce Tamsulosin relaxation of bladder prostatic (Uroselective( neck and prostate hyperplasia with resulting in increasing urine flow minimal effect on blood pressure

*Raynaud’s phenomenon is excessively reduced blood flow in response to cold or emotional stress, causing discoloration of the fingers, toes, and occasionally other areas (vasospasm) 3. α2- selective antagonists:

Pharmacokinetics Therapeutic use • Increase NO &ADH Used as aphrodisiac* (the released in the treatment of erectile corpus cavernosum dysfunction) • Vasodilatation • Contributing to the erectile process

*Aphrodisiac: a food, drink, or other thing that stimulates sexual desire. β -Adrenoceptors blockers

Pharmacological actions

Antianginal* effects (ischemic heart disease): Anti-arrhythmic Negative inotropic, 1-Decrease heart rate effects: chronotropic, = () Decrease excitability dromotropic . 2-Decrease force of Decrease automaticity CVS contraction =! cardiac Decrease conductivity *important* = Decrease work cardiac output 3-decrease oxygen )due to its sympathetic consumption due to blocking). bradycardia Increase peripheral Decrease blood flow to In Reynaud's disease , BLOOD resistance (PR) by organs = cold extremities. better use selective contraindicated in peripheral beta 1 blockers , beta 2 VESSELS blocking vasodilatory effect diseases like Reynaud's blockers Exacerbating disease the disease. of β2 Antihypertensive: decrease blood pressure in hypertensive patients due to effects on: Decrease renin, angiotensin BLOOD Presynaptic 2 (vasoconstrictor( and PRESSURE Decrease cardiac output inhibition of NE aldosterone secretion β1 β1 release from Beta receptors control renin adrenergic nerves system. RESPIRATORY TRACT β2 " Bronchoconstriction + contraindicated in asthmatic patients. In glaucoma, reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) + decrease aqueous EYE humor production from ciliary body e.g. Timolol as eye drops INTESTINE Increase intestinal motility Hypoglycemia: ↓ glycogenolysis in liver , ↓ glucagon secretion in pancreas , ↓ lipolysis in adipocytes Na+ retention** 2ndry to decrease blood pressure + decrease renal perfusion METABOLIC All β–Adrenergic blockers mask hypoglycemic manifestations in diabetic EFFECT patients type 1 ( taking insulin) The patient cant feel the reflex caused by hypoglycemia ( tachycardia + sweating) # cause COMA All beta blockers are contraindicated for diabetic patient type 1 ( taking insulin) *Angina = the amount of oxygen reaching the heart by coronary artery not enough , treatment either increase blood flow or decrease heart work load . ** This Na retention is due to the stimulation of aldosterone, but this stimulation is not strong enough to increase the hypertension (still b-blockers control the situation) Beta-Adrenoceptors blockers

Clinical Uses of β receptor blockers:

DISEASE DRUG

Labetalol INJECTION Labetalol (α, β blockers ) Hypertension - Propranolol, non selective used in treatment of atenolol, bisoprolol hypertensive pregnant & hypertensive crisis.

Used In supraventricular & ventricular arrhythmias. Cardiac Bisopoprolol and Carvedilol Beta blockers are preferred in ventricular arrhythmia Arrhythmias (antioxidant action(* more than atrial.

↓ heart rate, cardiac work & oxygen demand. CVS Angina pectoris ↓ the frequency of angina episodes.

Carvedilol is non selective Congestive Heart Carvedilol Decrease myocardial remodeling & decrease risk of sudden Failure )antioxidant action(* death.

Have cardio-protective effect, decrease infarct size, decrease Myocardial morbidity & mortality, decrease myocardial O2 demand. Infarction Beta blocker Anti-arrhythmic action. Decrease the incidence of sudden death.

Glaucoma Timolol Used as eye drop

Protect the heart against sympathetic over stimulation Hyperthyroidism Beta blocker Controls symptoms; tachycardia, tremors, sweating.

Anxiety Controls symptoms; tachycardia, tremors, sweating. (Social and performance type)

Propranolol USED ONLY AS PROPHELACTIC NOT EFFECTIVE IN ACUTE CONDITIONS !reduce episodes of chronic migraine Migraine !-induced vasodilatation in the brain vasculature Treatment : antagonize the sympathetic effect.

Combination α-blockers lower the elevated blood pressure. Pheochromocytoma Alpha & Beta blockers β -blockers protect the heart from NE.

Antioxidant: A substance that reduces damage due to oxygen free radicals. Beta-Adrenoceptors blockers
