A client is admitted to the emergency department with inspiratory stridor and air hunger. When anticipating treatment, the nurse will prepare Epinephrine medication for administration.

Using a G protein-linked second messenger pathway, epinephrine, a sympathomimetic catecholamine, exerts its pharmacologic effects on both alpha and beta-adrenergic receptors. In modest doses, it has a stronger affinity for beta receptors.

Large doses, however, have a selective effect on alpha receptors. Epinephrine causes enhanced vascular smooth muscle contraction, pupillary dilator muscle contraction, and intestinal sphincter muscle contraction via acting on alpha-1 receptors.

Increased heart rate, myocardial contractility, and renin release via beta-1 receptors are additional major effects. In addition to vasodilation, tocolysis, and increased aqueous humour production, beta-2 effects result in bronchodilation, which may be helpful as an adjunct therapy for asthma exacerbations.

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2><u> Explaining that this is an expected adverse effect of pilocarpine</u> is the most appropriate nursing action.</h2><h2>Explanation:</h2>

Pilocarpine is an antimuscarinic drug. There are M3 receptors located on the pupil responsible to constrict the pupils (miosis ) and also causing cyclospasm.

<u>As pilocarpine is administered</u> ,it is a pharmacologic antagonist of the muscarinic receptor , it results in mydriasis (dilation of pupils ) and cycloplegia ( inability to accommodate ) resulting in blurred vision.

Hence it is one of the side effects of pilocarpine.
