“Adrenergic agonists and
antagonists produce their
clinical effects by interacting
with the adrenergic receptors
(ie, adrenoceptors)”
Adrenoreceptor
Physiology
𝑫𝒐𝒑𝒂𝒎𝒊𝒏𝒆
• Classified as D1 and D2 receptors
• Activation of D1 receptors mediates vasodilation in the kidney,
intestine, and heart
• D2 receptors are believed to play a role in the antiemetic action
REMEMBER!! Understand the receptor function, then you know the mechanism of the drugs!!

• Phentolamine produces a competitive (reversible) blockade of both α1- and α2- receptors
• α1 antagonism and direct smooth muscle relaxation are responsible for peripheral vasodilation
and a decline in arterial blood pressure
• The drop in blood pressure provokes reflex tachycardia
• This tachycardia is augmented by antagonism of presynaptic α2-receptors in the heart because α2
blockade promotes norepinephrine release by eliminating negative feedback
• Prazosin and phenoxybenzamine are examples of other α-antagonists
Mixed Antagonist: Labetalol
• selective β1-blocker would have less of an inhibitory effect on β2-receptors and, therefore, might
be preferred in patients with chronic obstructive lung disease or peripheral vascular disease
