Summary Introduction
To write:
The atropine opposes the antidiarrheal effects of Lomotil. The pupils would be dilated or constricted by atropine poisoning. Atropine poisoning effect on skin either moist or dry. Atropine poisoning effect on heart rate elevated or depressed. Atropine poisoning effect on bladder to retain urine or void uncontrollably.
Introduction:
Lomotil contain a combination of two drugs that are diphenoxylate and atropine. It is helpful in curing the acute diarrhea. Diphenoxylate aids in curing diarrhea by reducing the intestinal movements.

The respiratory symptoms of asthma result from constriction of the bronchi and bronchioles of the lungs, caused by contraction of the smooth muscle of their walls. This constriction can be reversed by raising [cAMP] in the smooth muscle. Explain the therapeutic effects of albuterol, a β-adrenergic agonisttaken (by inhalation) for asthma. Would you expect this drug to have any side effects? If so, how might one design a better drug that does not have these effects?
There are two groups of drugs classified as antagonists of histamine receptor antagonists. The one group
blocks activation of histamine; receptors, while the second group selectively blocks histaminez receptors. Mr
HA is a pharmacy student who is worrying about his next pharmacology test, and he has come into the
pharmacy complaining of stomach pain associated with gastric hyperacidity.
5.1. Identify the class of histamine antagonists that would be appropriate for Mr HA. Clearly motivate your
choice by explaining the action of histamine at the specific receptor sub-type identified and thus the
physiological outcome of using the appropriate histamine antagonist.
5.2. Several different local hormones and mediators play a role in platelet aggregation and blood
coagulation. For each of the following mediators, identify
(1) the site where the mediator is produced/found and
(i) the physiological function when released

Its mode of action in reducing intraocular pressure is similar to that of non-selective blockers, suppressing the flow of aqueous humor. The extent of occupation, in the systemic circulation, of the beta 1-adrenoceptor of betaxolol when applied topically is smaller than that of non-selective blockers and the occupation of the beta 2 receptor is insignificant, providing a better safety profile in patients with cardiopulmonary disease . Experimental studies have revealed that this drug targets the retina after topical administration and exhibits L-type dependent calcium channel blocking activity, which likely allows betaxolol to improve retinal perfusion and serve as a recommended neuroprotective agent in various forms of glaucoma . The most frequent adverse reaction to betaxolol is burning after administration, which is minimized by an ocular suspension with a reduced…arrow_forwardIndividuals with inadequate tyrosine metabolism are oftenlight-sensitive and easily develop severe cases of sunburn.Explain.
