This document discusses adrenergic agonists and antagonists that affect the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. It describes the main uses and adverse effects of selective and non-selective adrenergic agonists as well as adrenergic antagonists. Specifically, it discusses drugs like epinephrine, phenylephrine, clonidine, isoproterenol, dobutamine, albuterol, salmeterol, formoterol, yohimbine, reserpine, cocaine, methamphetamine, amphetamine, and various beta blockers. It provides information on their mechanisms of action, locations of adrenergic receptors, and controversies regarding their use and safety.
This document discusses adrenergic receptors and modulators. It describes the sympathetic nervous system and neurotransmitters like norepinephrine, epinephrine, and dopamine. Norepinephrine is stored in synaptic vesicles and released via calcium-dependent fusion. Release can be modulated by prejunctional autoreceptors and heteroreceptors. There are alpha and beta adrenergic receptors which are G-protein coupled and have various effects. Drugs can affect receptors as agonists or antagonists and are used to treat conditions like hypertension and heart failure.
1. Receptors are cellular macromolecules that mediate chemical signaling between and within cells. They have affinity for ligands and intrinsic activity that triggers a pharmacological response upon ligand binding.
2. Agonists have high affinity and intrinsic activity, forming active receptor complexes. Antagonists have affinity but no intrinsic activity. Partial agonists and inverse agonists have intermediate effects.
3. There are several types of receptors including ion channels, G protein-coupled, kinase-linked, intracellular, and enzymes. Long-term receptor exposure can lead to down-regulation or up-regulation depending on if it's an agonist or antagonist.
The document summarizes different types of receptors and their classification. It discusses four main types of receptors: ligand gated ion channel receptors (inotropic), G-protein coupled receptors (metabotropic), kinase linked receptors, and nuclear receptors. It provides details about their molecular structure, signaling mechanisms, examples, and comparisons between receptor types. In summary, the document provides an overview of receptor pharmacology, classification of receptors, and their role in drug action and signaling pathways.

The Delgado Community College Pharmacy Technician
Program is accredited by the American Society of Health-
System Pharmacists (ASHP).
The program was first accredited in 2003. At that
time, there were less than 75 accredited programs, there
are now more than 260. In the state of LA, DCC’s Pharm
Tech program is one of 5 accredited programs.
Accreditation is a process that ensures a minimum standard is being
observed. ASHP accreditation provides the public, our students and
our pharmacy partners the knowledge of our standards . This provides
all interested parties a certain expectation of competency.
*There is a list of program standards posted the DCC Pharmacy

Pg 18
23. Definition and Explanation of Competencies
• Competency is the ability to do a job properly.
• In a traditional lecture based course, competencies are most often confirmed
through testing.
• In a lab based course, or on a clinical site, traditional testing methods are not an
accurate assessment of the students ability to “DO” the “job” or a specific task.
• Competencies in a lab course can be accomplished by the student successfully
completing a task within a specific activity or during a lab practical.
• Not all lab competencies can be tested during a practical exam; many are
completed during lab activities. It is IMPERIATIVE that you attend all scheduled
labs so that you do not miss a competency.
• Any competency not completed satisfactorily will result in failure of the entire lab
course. Passing is not solely dependent on the number or letter Grade.
24. Unsuccessful completion of Course Work
• A Student who is not successful in completing 1 course (due to failure
or withdrawal to prevent failure) will be given the opportunity to
retake the course in the next semester it is offered.
• Student is required to meet with the program director to discuss an
action plan.
• A Student not successful in 2 courses – Not within the same semester:
• Student will be allowed to continue in program sequence and
repeat the course.
• Student is place on program probation pending successful
completion of the course
• Student is required to meet with the program director to discuss an
action plan
Pg 19-20
25. Unsuccessful completion of Course Work
• A Student not successful in 2 or more courses in the same semester:
• Student is placed on program probation.
• Student is required to meet with the program director.
• Student is required to present their case to the Probationary Review
Committee to be allowed to continue in sequence. (This may be written
or face-to-face)
• One of three things will result from the student appeal
1. Student will be allowed to continue in sequence and remain on
probation
2. Student will be suspended from program for 1 semester and
advised to complete additional courses deemed by the Committee
to be beneficial to aid the student in successful completion of
courses on returning to program
3. Student will be Dismissed from program
Pg 19-20
26. Withdrawal from Program
• A student may find need to withdraw from program for many reasons
• Financial
• Personal
• To prevent failure
• If the student is in good standing (not on probation / passing all
course work at time of withdrawal)
• Student can re-enter the next semester courses are offered
• Re-entry to second semester may depend on current enrollment and
availability of clinical sites
• Students who withdraw to prevent failure before the completion of
the 1st semester would need to re-apply and they would be
considered a new applicant.
Pg 19-20
27. Re-entry
• Students wishing to re-enter program, either after voluntarily
withdrawing or after suspension, will be required to make their
intention to return verbally to the program director. At that time, they
may be instructed to submit a statement in writing requesting re-
admission.
• Re-entry will be dependent upon the previously mentioned criteria.
