Slide 5-

1. Cholinergic Agonist: Direct Acting: Cholinergic agonists (also known as parasympathomimetics) mimic the effects of acetylcholine by binding directly to cholinoceptors. Acetylcholine, Pilocarpine, Bethanecol, Carbachol. Indirect Acting: Acetylcholinesterase is an enzyme that specifically cleaves acetylcholine to acetate and choline and, thus, terminates its actions. Inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase indirectly provide a cholinergic action by prolonging the lifetime of acetylcholine. Physostigmine, Neostigmine, Ecothiophate, Rivastigmine, Tacrine. Reactivation of Actylcholine-esterase: Pralidoxime. 2. Cholinergic Antagonist: Antimuscarinic: Commonly known as antimuscarinics, these agents block muscarinic receptors, causing inhibition of all muscarinic functions. Atropine, Scopolamine, Ipratropium. Ganglionic Bolckers: Ganglionic blockers specifically act on the nicotinic receptors of both parasympathetic and sympathetic autonomic ganglia. Except for nicotine, the other drugs mentioned in this category are nondepolarizing, competitive antagonists. Mecylamine, Nicotine. Neuromuscular Bolckers: These neuromuscular blockers are structural analogs of acetylcholine, and they act either as antagonists (nondepolarizing type) or agonists (depolarizing type) at the receptors on the end plate of the neuromuscular junction. Neuromuscular blockers are clinically useful during surgery for producing complete muscle relaxation Atracurium, Doxacurium, Succinylcholine, Tubocurarine.

1. Agrenergic Agonist: Direct Acting: These drugs act directly on α or β receptors, producing effects similar to those that occur following stimulation of sympathetic nerves or release of the hormone epinephrine from the adrenal medulla. Dopamine, Epinephrine, Norepinephrine, Phenylephrine, Sameterol, Terbutaline. Indirect Acting: These agents, which include amphetamine, cocaine and tyramine, may block the uptake of norepinephrine (uptake blockers) or are taken up into the presynaptic neuron and cause the release of norepinephrine from the cytoplasmic pools or vesicles of the adrenergic neuron. As with neuronal stimulation, the norepinephrine then traverses the synapse and binds to the α or β receptors. Amphetamine, Cocaine, Tyramine. Mixed: Capacity both to stimulate adrenoceptors directly and to release norepinephrine from the adrenergic neuron. Ephedrine, Pseudoephedrine. 2. Adrenergic Antagonist: α-Blockers: Drugs that block α-adrenoceptors profoundly affect blood pressure. Doxazocin, Prazocin, Terazocin, Tamsulosin.

Angina Pectoris: It is a characteristic sudden, severe, pressing chest pain radiating to the neck, jaw, back, and arms. It is caused by coronary blood flow that is insufficient to meet the oxygen demands of the myocardium, leading to ischemia. Stable Angina(Typical): It is characterized by a burning, heavy, or squeezing feeling in the chest. It is caused by the reduction of coronary perfusion due to a fixed obstruction produced by coronary atherosclerosis. Unstable Angina: In unstable angina, chest pains occur with increased frequency and are precipitated by progressively less effort.(lies b/w Angina and MI) Prinzmetal/Variant/Vasopastic Angina: It is an uncommon pattern of episodic angina that occurs at rest and is due to coronary artery spasm. Symptoms are caused by decreased blood flow to the heart muscle due to spasm of the coronary artery. Mixed Angina: Patients with advanced coronary artery disease may present with angina episodes during effort as well as at rest, suggesting the presence of a fixed obstruction associated with endothelial dysfunction. Angiodema: Angioedema or Quincke's edema is the rapid swelling (edema) of the dermis, subcutaneous tissue, mucosa and submucosal tissues. Also known as angioneurotic oedema. Due to increased bradykinin(vasodilator) levels which occurs in ACEIs treatment. Hydralazine causes Lupus Like Syndrome. Hypothyroidism & Antidepressants causes Weight Gain. Low Density Lipoproteins LPLs act as Carriers of cholesterol in Plasma. HDLs cause atherosclerosis. Sites of Antibiotics: Cell wall synthesis(B-lactams); metabolism(sulfonamides); protein synthesis(macrolides); nucleic acid function or synthesis(cipro); cell membrane function(isoniazid).

Structure: Inner part Medulla secreting Epinehprine. Outer part cortex. Cortex is further divided into three parts. Inner most of cortex is Reticularis which secretes Adrenal androgens; Middle part called Fasciculata secreting Glucocorticoids and outer most is the Glomerulosa which secretes Mineralocorticoids. Physiology: Hypothalamus A Pituitary Adrenal Gland Glucocorticoids & Mineralocorticoids are collectively known as Corticosteroids. Cortisol also acts as a feedback mechanism and inhibits both processes from hypothalamus to anterior pituitary and pituitary to adrenal glands. Glucocorticoids: Short Acting (1-12 hrs): Hydrocortisone, Cortisone. Intermediate Acting (12-36hrs): Prednisone, Prednisolone, Methylprednisolone. Long Acting (36-55hrs): Betamethasone, Dexamethasone. Mineralocorticoids: Deoxycorticosterone, Fludrocortisone. Glucocorticoids act as anti inflammatory by inhibiting PGs and Leukotrienes & also redistribute WBCs to other body sites; also reduce histamine release from mast cells and basophils; decrease ability of macrophages and leukocytes to antigens and mitogens. Also used in Treatment of Allergies and Diagnosis of Cushing’s disease (Overproduction of glucocoricoids) 15 February 2026 RABBE ZIDNI ILMA 35 Adrenal Hormones Corticotropin-releasing Factor Corticotropin ACTH Aldosterone Corisol Androgens

Metabolism can happen in two phases. Phase I reactions involve hydrolysis, oxidation and reduction (results in low hydrophilicity). Phase II reactions involve glucoronidation, sulfonation, acetylation, methylation, conjugation with glutathione or amino acids(cause high hydrophilicity). Phase I may or may not precede Phase II. Clearance is the volume of plasma cleared off drug per unit time. Its unit is ml/min. Pharmacokinetics involves the movement of drug or its metabolites into or out of the body and also evaluates its metabolism rates. Zero order kinetics is independent of drug concentrations; usually seen when reaction system is saturated.e.g Metabolism of Phenytoin, Constant rate IV Infusion. In First order kinetics rate of drug elimination at particular time is directly proportional to the amount of drug in the body at that time; Semi Logarithmic plot of Plasma Drug Conc vs time is a straight line. Elimination rate constant, Vd, clearance and half life are independent of the dose of the drug. First order kinetics is also known as monoexponential kinetics; in which rate of reaction is directly proportional to the drug concentration in the reaction. Mixed Order Kinetics depends on the dose of the drug and are thus known as Dose Dependant or Non-Linear Kinetics. Generally described by Michelis Menten Equation. 15 February 2026 RABBE ZIDNI ILMA 43 Biopharm Concepts

Pharmacokinetic Models are imaginary compartments. Central Compartment represents plasma and tissues which rapidly equilibrate with drugs. Peripheral Compartments represents tissues or organs which equilibrate slowly. Number and site of compartments is determined by the blood perfusion capacity and drug physicochemical properties. Michelis Menten Equation: -dc = Vmax x C dt Km + C Plasma albumin has 4 binding sites .i.e Warfarin, Diazepam, Tamoxifen, Digoxin. Total body tissue comprises 40% of the total body. Pharmaceutical Equivalents: If two drugs contain same amount of active ingredient in same dosage form. They may contain different excipients. Pharmaceutical Alternatives: If two drugs contain same drug molecule but in different chemical form e.g different salt or strength. Bioavailability: Rate and extent to which a drug is absorbed from the site of administration and become available at the site of action. Bioeuivalence: Drugs showing same bioavailability are said to be bioequivalent. Essentially Similar Product: A copy of the research or Innovator Product.

Therapeutic Equivalents: If two drugs provide the same desired therapeutic effect with same safety and efficacy. Cmax: Maximum Drug Plasma concentration partly depends on the rate of release of drug from the formulation. Tmax: Time required to reach maximum Plasma drug concentration; also dependant on rate of drug release. T1/2: Elimination half life. Mean Residence Time (MRT): Time a drug molecule spends in the body before it gets excreted out. Metabolism reactions are also said to be Bioactivation reactions. Metabolism is basically involved in converting a drug more hydrophilic to facilitate its excretion from the body. 15 February 2026 RABBE ZIDNI ILMA 45 Biopharm Concepts
