Cardiovascular system cortisol

Peripheral Pharmacological Actions of Nicotine. Nicotine effects on the cardiovascular system include tachycardia and peripheral vasoconstriction, which leads to elevated blood pressure. Because the cardiovascular effects are mainly caused by elevated levels of catecholamines and cortisol, tolerance to these effects does not occur. Other pharmacological actions of nicotine include increased gastrointestinal motility caused by parasympathetic ganglionic stimulation and skeletal muscle contraction caused by the effect on nicotinic receptors in the neuromuscular junction (184). [Pg.455]
