24 years old ,married, beautiful female patient came in medical OPD of Ghurki teaching hospital. 3rd year MBBS students were waiting for their senior teacher to attend clinical class at OPD. When they got medical history from married, beautiful lady. She told that she remains hypertensive, remains hungry even after excessive food intake, her body hairs raise when she listen any bad news at TV, and she has problems of frequent micturation and increased sweating.

Medical students are discussing on ANS. Which group’s statement is true:

a) Her problems are due to her crucial husbandb) She is in depressionc) She has no problem at alld) Her complains related with kidney, adrenal medulla,

vessels, pilomotor muscles, sweat glands and metabolic processes are due to sympathetic ANS stimulation

e) All her problems are related with histamine release

Drug structure and receptor Drug structure and receptor selectivityselectivity

•The structure of Acetylcholine allows this transmitter to interact with both receptor subtypes.

•In contrast, because of their unique configurations,

Nicotine and Muscarine are selective for the cholinergic receptor subtypes whose structure complements their own.

ACTIONS OF CHOLINERGIC AGONISTACTIONS OF CHOLINERGIC AGONIST

CVS:The action of Ach on heart mimic the effects of VAGAL stimulation.      The normal vagal activity regulates the heart by release of Ach at SA node.

      Vasodilatation       Decrease in heart rate ( -ve chronotropic effect).       Decrease in force of contraction ( -ve Inotropic effect).       Decrease in rate of conduction in SA & AV nodes ( -ve dromotropic effect).

26 years old patient came in hospital for his treatment. He complained about increased salivation, GIT cramps, diarrhea, increased sweating , frequent urination. Whatever the diagnosis of the problem is ,can you just guess that:

a) All symptoms are due to muscrinic receptors stimulation

b) All symptoms are due to sympathetic stimulation

c) All symptoms are due to his anxiety

d) All symptoms are due to dopaminergic inhibition

e) All symptoms are due to his abdominal pain

29 years old patient was used to take antidepressant, TOFRANIL tablets (imipramine 25 mg) 1 X 8 hly since long time. One day he took 10 TOFRANIL tablets at once due to some disputed problem with his father. He was brought in casualty with symptoms like lethargy, drowsiness, headache, lower abdominal pain, and difficulty in urination. What should be the appropriate treatment:

a) Antidote for anticholinergic drug poisoning, like

physostigmine is the best treatment b) Gastric levage and atropine must be given by IV route

immediatelyc) Adrenaline s/c is sufficient treatment to relieve the

symptomsd) Psychological counseling is the best advise for the patiente) IV glucose may be given as infusion to relieve drowsiness,

PONSTON for headache and lower abdominal pain and LASIX may be given to start urination
