The cardiovascular effects of beta adrenergic agonist drugs administered by nebulization.
نویسنده
چکیده
The cardiovascular effects of equal doses (5 mg) of nebulised fenoterol, salbutamol and terbutaline were compared in 12 healthy individuals in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Measurements of heart rate, blood pressure, systolic time intervals, QTc interval and T-wave amplitude were made at baseline and at 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 minutes after nebulisation. Fenoterol caused significantly greater chronotropic electrocardiographic and inotropic effects than either salbutamol or terbutaline. The peak effects after terbutaline occurred later than those after fenoterol or salbutamol.

Peripheral and central effects of dexrnedetomidine, a specific alpha-2 adrenergic agonist, oil phasic and tonic pain
Recently, vast studies have been focused on the antinociceptive and anesthetic effects of α2 adrenergic receptors, using specific drugs such as medetomidine and dexmedetomidine. In the present study, we tried to assess the peripheral and central effects of dexmedetomidine in phasic and tonic pain, on rats, using tail flick and formalin tests. Dexmedetomidine, administered intraperitoneally (25,...

The effect of dietary Terbutaline, a beta adrenergic agonist, on carcass characteristics and blood attributes in 288 Japanese quails was studied from 21 through 49 days of age. Dietary treatments included four levels of Terbutaline [0 (T0), 1 (T1), 3 (T3), and 5 (T5) mg/Kg of the diet]. Quails were bled at the end of the trial for biochemical assays and the carcass characteristics were then mea...

The present study examined the acute effects of drugs that stimulate or block sympathetic nervous system activity on components of Type A behavior, affect, and cardiovascular responses to mental stressors. Either propranolol (a beta-adrenergic blocker), isoproterenol (a beta-agonist), or placebo was infused intravenously at different times in 12 healthy males. In two sessions, placebo (saline) ...

Background: Overdoses with cardiovascular drugs are related with significant morbidity and mortality. Beta-adrenergic blockers, calcium-channel blockers (CCBs), thiazide, digoxin and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors represent five of the most important classes of cardiovascular drugs. Overdoses with cardiovascular drugs are typically caused by exploratory ingestion by children or ...
متن کاملRespiratory syncytial virus induces airway insensitivity to beta-agonists in BALB/c mice.
beta-Adrenergic agonists (beta-agonists) are commonly used to treat respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis but are generally ineffective for unknown reasons. We have previously shown that RSV strain A2 inhibits bronchoalveolar epithelial responses to beta-agonists in a BALB/c mouse model by inducing heterologous keratinocyte cytokine (KC)/CXCR2-mediated desensitization of epithelial be...
