14
Nicotinic Receptor Antagonists
n NMJ blockers: weakness, paralysis n Curare, atracurium, alpha-bungarotoxin
n Peripheral neuronal blockers: autonomic ganglionic blockade n Trimethaphan (not entirely specific, may produce
NMJ blockade)
15
Nicotinic Indirect Agonists
n Bind to distinct allosteric sites on the nicotinic receptor, not ACh binding site (enhanced channel opening) n Physostigmine n Tacrine n Galantamine
16
Nicotinic Indirect Antagonists
n Bind to distinct allosteric sites on the nicotinic receptor, not ACh binding site (decreased channel opening) n Chlorpromazine n Ketamine n Phencyclidine (PCP) n Local anesthetics n Ethanol n Corticosteroids
17
Buzzwords
n Nicotine alkaloids (nicotine, coniine) n Trick to remember the hemlocks –
n Water Gate Candidate Scandal (Water hemlock, GABA, Cicutoxin, Seizures)

18
Muscarinic Agonists
n Peripheral: DUMBBELS n Central: Sedation, dystonia, coma, seizures
n Muscarine n Bethanachol n Pilocarpine
