DRUGS FOR
TREATING SHOCK
DR. SAROJ SUWAL
SHOCK
• Syndrome characterize by collapse of Circulatory System
Vitals tissue doesn’t
receive enough blood
to function properly
Cell cannot carry on
normal metabolism
Shock is a systemic state of low tissue perfusion,
which is inadequate for normal cellular
respiration.
SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS
TYPES OF SHOCK
• Hypovolemic:
• Due to loss of blood
volume
• Two types
• hemorrhagic,
• non-hemorrhagic (GI
or renal losses, burns,
etc.)
•
• Septic Shock
• Multiple organ Dysfunction due
to organism in blood
• Cardiogenic:
• Failure to pump blood to issue
• Acute myocardial infraction
resulting in massive damage to
myocardium, CHF ,Pulmonary
embolism
ANAPHYLATIC SHOCK
• due to acute allergic reactions
• Due to severe reaction to allergens
• Drugs: penicillin , radio contrast, lignocaine , anesthetic
drugs, iron injectable . . etc.
• Blood transfusion
• Stings and snake bite
• New clothes
• Dusting smokes
• Suddenly climate change
DRUGS USED FOR SHOCK
•3 categories
•Vasoconstrictors
•Cardio Tonic Drugs
•Fluid Replacement
agents
VASOCONSTRICTORS
• EPINEPHRINE
• NOR-EPINEPHRINE
SHOCK BP
drop Initially
inscrease
sympathetic
Nervous System
Vasoconstriction Inscrease BP
EPINEPHRINE/ ADRENALINE
• Non selective adrenergic agent
• stimulates both the alpha- and beta-
adrenergic systems
• causes
• systemic VASOCONSTRICTION
• gastrointestinal relaxation,
• stimulates the HEART, and
• dilates BRONCHI and cerebral vessels.
Increase BP 
• due to alpha 1 receptor in smooth muscle of blood
vessels
Cardia output increase
• due to stimulation of beta 1 receptor in hear
Airway open 
• due to stimulation of beta 2
NON EPINEPHRINE
• Norepinephrine is similar to adrenaline.
• chemical released from the sympathetic nervous
system
• Stress Hormone
• It works by constricting (narrowing) the blood vessels and
increasing blood pressure and blood glucose (sugar)
levels.
• Norepinephrine is used to treat life-threatening low blood
pressure (hypotension)
• Has both alpha and beta one activity
CARDIO TONIC DRUGS
• Ionotropic agents – inscrease
force of contraction of heart
muscles
• Digoxin
• Dobutamine
• Dopamine
• Dermotropic  affect tissue of heart
DIGIOXIN
• cardiotonic glycoside obtained mainly
from Digitalis lanata
• has positive inotropic and negative
chronotropic activity
• used for
• congestive heart failure and
• supraventricular arrhythmias
• control ventricular rate
DOBUTAMINE
• Used in treatment of cardiogenic shock and
severe heart failure.
• Beta 1 adrenergic agent
Dobutamine
Chonotropic
Effect
Increase heart
beat forcibly
Inscrease in CO
maintaining
blood flow to
vital organs
DOPAMINE
• Released from brain
• dopamine as neurotransmitter—a chemical released by neurons
(nerve cells) to send signals to other nerve cells.
DOPAMINE
• Acts differently in different dose ( LOW, MEDIUM and
HIGH Dose )
• Acts on dopamine, alpha and beta receptors
• Low dose :
• Used for treating hypovolemic and cardiogenic shock
stimulate beta 1
receptor in kidney
Cause
vasodilation
Inscrease blood
flow to kidney
• Modrate dose
• Stimulates beta 1 receptor cause increase rate with force
inscrease CO
• High Dose
• Stimulates alpha recetor vasoconstriction increase BP
FLUID REPLACEMENT
• Used to replace blood or other fluids during hypovolemic
shock
• Generally replacement done are
• Blood,
• colloids,
• crystalloids
BLOOD
• Whole Blood
• Blood from standard donation
• indicated for acute and massive blood loss
• Will replace plasma volume
• Supply RBC’s
COLLOIDS
• Used when 1/3 blood volume is lost
• Are proteins that stay suspended in blood for long
period
• Draw water from body’s cells and tissues into blood
vessels
• Colloids are
• Serum albumin, plasma protein fractions, dextrans
CRYSTALLOIDS
• IV solutions that contain electrolyes that is same as contained in
plasma
• Like colloids leave blood and enter into cell
• Used for
• replacing fluid lost
• Inscrese urine output
• Include
• NS, RL, Hypertonic Saline
• 5% dextrose
