Alpha antagonist drugs

1. outline Alpha blockers or alpha receptor antagonists are drugs that block alpha adrenergic receptors . Since alpha 1 receptors have a

There are two types of alpha-adrenergic receptors, alpha 1 (on the vascular smooth muscle) and alpha 2 (on the vascular smooth muscle and sympathetic nerve terminals). Alpha-adrenoreceptor antagonists are classed either as non-selective alpha adrenoreceptor antagonists, alpha1-selective antagonists, alpha2-selective antagonists and ergot

These drugs block the actions of adrenergic drugs at alpha (α) or beta (β) adrenergic receptors. 1. Alpha Blocker Alpha antagonist are

Alpha antagonist drugs block alpha-1 and alpha-2 receptors, inhibiting their activation by catecholamines and related agonists. Alpha antagonists include phentolamine and phenoxybenzamine . Phentolamine, an alpha-1 and alpha-2 receptor blocker, can be used in cases of cocaine-induced hypertension.

Hypertension (high blood pressure) can be treated with a variety of drugs, including the alpha-adrenergic antagonists. Alpha antagonists lower
