Across
  1. 4. non-selective beta-blockers should not be used with this condition
  2. 5. type of adrenergic receptor found on smooth muscle membranes of arteries
  3. 6. used for treatment of spasticity
  4. 7. type of solubility that allows crossing of blood-brain barrier
  5. 11. study of the processes of drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion
  6. 12. neurotransmitter released at the autonomic ganglion
  7. 13. decreased drug effects after chronic use
  8. 16. is converted into norepinephrine
  9. 17. location of first-pass metabolism
  10. 18. neurotransmitter released by adrenal medulla
  11. 19. beta-blockers have this impact on heart rate
  12. 20. alpha-blocking drugs relax smooth muscle here to improve urinary flow
  13. 21. most lipid-soluble beta-blocker
  14. 22. drug administration that does not involve GI tract
  15. 23. interferes with the synthesis of norepinephrine
Down
  1. 1. type of muscle relaxed by epinephrine
  2. 2. sympathetic effect on arteries to cardiac and skeletal muscle
  3. 3. cholinergic drugs are used for this condition
  4. 8. ACH receptor on cell membranes of viscera
  5. 9. diverts blood from organs not involved in fight or flight
  6. 10. controlled drugs are assigned to one of five
  7. 14. type of receptor at the postganglionic neuron
  8. 15. nerves commonly referred to as autonomic nervous system
  9. 19. a direct-acting skeletal muscle relaxant
  10. 24. main clinical use of beta-blockers is to decrease activity here
