Answer: Adrenergic drugs are used both in the emergency treatment of Myocardial infarction, Asthma attack and Anaphylaxis T/F.
Explanation:
Andrenergic drugs acts by blocking renin release,and interfers with synthesis and release of Nor-epinephrine (Nor-adrenaline) thereby helping to reduce the peripheral vascular resistance and lowering the blood pressure.example; Methyldopa.
As a bronchodilator in asthma attack, Adrenergic drugs relax bronchial muscle spasm then dilate the bronchial trees thereby allowing proper ventilation of the lungs example: Aminophylline
Adrenergic drugs like epinephrine are used in anaphylaxis/ allergic reactions as well as hypersensitivity reactions to inhibit the action of histamines and as such relieve allergic reactions.
