This pharmacology lecture covers topics such as mechanism of action of adrenergic agonists; catecholamines, noncatecholamines, direct acting, indirect acting, mixed action; location and function of alpha and beta receptors. Adrenergic agonists mentioned include: Epinephrine, Norepinephrine, Dopamine, Oxymetazoline, Phenylephrine, Clonidine, Dobutamine, Albuterol, Terbutaline, Salmeterol, Formoterol, Mirabegron, Cocaine, Amphetamine, Ephedrine, Pseudoephedrine.
