Dales vasomotor reversal | PGI based MCQs


Dales vasomotor reversal 

A. Stimulation of alpha-I receptors 
B Stimulation of alpha-2 receptors 
C. Stimulation of beta-I receptors 
D. Stimulation of beta-2 receptors
E. stimulation of beta 3 receptors



The Answer is. (D) Stimulation of beta-2 receptors

— Adrenaline acts on a1, a2, β1 and β2 and receptors and weak β3 action while at low concentration continue to act on β receptor When a-blocker is given to patient on adrenaline the a-blockers block the pressor action of adren1ine and then it prn4nres only fall in BP due to β2-mediated vasodilation called casomotor reversal of dale.
