The response by your body is sometimes called the âfight or flightâ response. Adrenergic drugs stimulate the same nerves by either mimicking the action of the neurotransmitter norepinephrine or stimulating its release. They are used for many life-threatening conditions.
with both groups the net result is reduced activation of peripheral adrenergic receptors. Hence the pharmacologic effects of the indirect-acting adrenergic blocking agents are very similar to those of drugs that block adrenergic receptors directly.
