Pathophysiology:
Acute cocaine use causes release of dopamine, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and serotonie.
Sodium blocker: analgesic effect,(acts similar to class 1A antidysrhythmic drugs.
Cocaine is a local anathetic agent throughCocaine is a local anathetic agent through::
*releaseing of norepinephrine,
*releasing of dopamine,
*blocking Na cahnnels

Regarding cocaine metabolism, Regarding cocaine metabolism, true/falsetrue/false::
*cocaine metabolite in the liver and kidney*norcocaine is produced by the liver
*benzoyl ecgonine detected in urine screen is helpful for the management of acute intoxication
benzoyl ecgonine, beneficial to : (1) document possible abuse or neglect in a child with suspected exposure, (2) confirm cocaine as the unknown substance in body packers, and (3) differentiate paranoia into drug-induced or psychiatric causes.

AnticholinergicsAnticholinergics
Three main groups:
Antimuscarinics, affecting the muscarinic acetylcholine receptors;
Neuromuscular blockers, blocking nicotinic acetylcholine receptors ,
Ganglionic blockers, affecting acetylcholine sympathetic and parasympathetic nicotinic ganglia..

Medical usageMedical usage::
pupillary dilators (atropine, homatropine, tropicamide, cyclopentolate),
antispasmodics (dicyclomine),
decrease gastric secretions (propantheline), prevent motion sickness (scopolamine),
treat asthma (ipratropium),
bradycardia (atropine).
Atropine or scopolamine is used to dry airway secretions and block vagal responses to
laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation .
