Description

This lecture covers the pharmacology of the autonomic nervous system, focusing on cholinergic and adrenergic receptors, their classification, tissue distribution, and transduction mechanisms. It also discusses the effects and clinical uses of sympathomimetics and sympatholytics, as well as the mechanisms of action of various drugs like cholinesterase inhibitors. Additionally, it explores the physiological effects of acetylcholine and catecholamines, the role of activators of the sympathetic system, and the management of poisoning cases. The lecture delves into bronchodilators, their administration, and the treatment of bronchial hyperreactivity with corticosteroids.
