  1. 2. Another word for parasympathomimetic. parasympatholytic Agents that inhibit or reverse the actions of the PSNS. They are antagonists that prevent binding of acetylcholine. Used to treat Parkinson's, spasms, motion sickness, and overactive bladder.
  2. 3. Component system of ANS associated with "feed and breed" processes.
  3. 7. Prominent drug for motion sickness.
  4. 9. Component system of ANS associated with "fight or flight" response.
  5. 10. A chemical messenger of the SNS.
  6. 11. Sympathomimetic agents treat hypertension, heart block, asthma, depression, and this.
  7. 14. Blocking agent used preoperatively to block the transmission of nerve impulses to skeletal muscles.
  8. 15. Type of blocker (is a sympatholytic agent) that affects the bladder.
  9. 18. Sympathomimetic agents that facilitate the release of norepinephrine or block the re-uptake of norepinephrine in the neuronal.
  10. 19. Component system of PNS that controls voluntary movement with skeletal muscle.
  11. 20. Type of blocker (is a sympatholytic agent)that affects the heart.
  12. 21. Chemical messenger of the PSNS.
  13. 22. Anesthetic used for minor surgery to block conduction of impulses along nerves and prevents the sensation of pain from reaching
Down
  1. 1. Word ending of anesthetics used for minor surgery.
  2. 4. Type of blocker (is a sympatholytic agent) used to treat blood pressure and BPH.
  3. 5. A chemical messenger of the SNS.
  4. 6. Another word for parasympatholytic.
  5. 8. Sympathomimetic agents that mimic the effects of chemicals (i.e. norepinephrine and epinephrine) to combine with SNS receptors to enhance SNS actions.
  6. 12. Agents that enhance the actions of the PSNS and oppose the effects of the SNS. Used to treat glaucoma, bladder problems, gastrointestinal problems, and Alzheimer's disease.
  7. 13. Agents that oppose the action of epinephrine and norepinephrine at their receptor sites. Often referred to as adrenergic blockers. Used for hypertension, heart disease, migraine headaches, and overactive bladder.
  8. 16. Component system of PNS that controls involuntary processes.
  9. 17. Type of blocker (is a sympatholytic agent) that affects the lungs.
