Pharmacology antagonists

The validity of this concept, in which Cb,u is used to project RO accurately across species, was evaluated for a dual-pharmacology antagonist (1) simultaneously targeting the synaptic transmembrane proteins SerT and 5-HT2A [37]. Briefly, SerT RO was determined in rats and humans by ex vivo binding and positron emission tomography (PET) studies,... 

Antidiuretic hormone antagonists inhibit the effects of ADH in the collecting tubule. Conivaptan is a pharmacologic antagonist at Via and V2 receptors. Both lithium and demeclocycline appear to reduce the formation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in response to ADH. 

Pharmacologic antagonists are generally divided into two categories depending on whether they are com-... 

Histamine from nearby enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells is probably the primary modulator, but the magnitude of the stimulus depends upon an interaction of signals of each type low levels of only histamine or gastrin weakly stimulate acid secretion, but together they strongly reinforce it. Pharmacologic antagonists of each of these molecules can block acid secretion. 

Basic and advanced life support measures should be initiated immediately. Activated charcoal may be utilized to adsorb illicit fentanyl derivatives following ingestion. Naloxone is the specific pharmacologic antagonist for fentanyl derivatives. Naloxone displaces these agents at the opioid receptor and reverses their clinical effects however, higher than customary doses may be needed to successfully overcome the opioid receptor. 

The number of pharmacologic antagonists or antidotes is quite limited. There are few agents that will rapidly reverse toxic effects and restore a patient to a previously healthy baseline state. Administering some pharmacologic antagonists may actually worsen patient outcome compared to merely employing basic supportive care. As a result, antidotes should be used cautiously and with clearly understood indications and contraindications.
