Tolazoline and phentolamine
Mechanism of action - The alpha 1 and alpha 2 receptors on tolazoline and phentolamine are inhibited, resulting in tachycardia. Through an inhibitory effect on presynaptic alpha 2 - receptors, these medications stimulate the release of NE, contributing to their cardiac stimulatory effects.
Synthesis
Therapeutic uses - Tolazoline is used to enhance blood flow in patients suffering from peripheral vasospastic conditions such as Raynaud's syndrome. Tolazoline is used to treat newborns with chronic pulmonary hypertension. Phentalomine is a medication that is used to prevent or treat hypertension crises.
Adverse reactions - Tachycardia causes hyperchlorhydria and increased gastrointestinal motility.

Phenoxybenzamine
Haloalkylamines are currently used only in clinical practice, and phenoxybenzamine is the only one.
Mechanism of action - They are alpha-adrenergic receptor blockers that are irreversible. It is a Beta-haloalkylamine that causes long-term, irreversible adrenergic suppression. The first step is to synthesise an intermediate aziridinium ion that will form a reversible combination with the receptor. Upon binding to a nucleophilic group on the receptor, the positively charged aziridinium ion electrophile produces a covalent bond and produces an alkylated receptor.
Metabolism - Phenoxybenzamine has a high lipid solubility. It is metabolised in the liver (dealkylated) and eliminated in bile and urine. Because it produces local irritation, it can only be delivered intravenously or orally.
Therapeutic uses - Phenoxybenzamine is used in the treatment of hypertension to treat peripheral vasospastic disorders such as Raynaud's disease.
Adverse reactions - Side effects include congestive heart failure, nasal congestion, reflex tachycardia, cerebral stroke, renal failure, bronchoconstriction and miosis,

Prazosin
Prazosin is a quinazoline alpha 1 - antagonist. The quinazoline family of a-blockers has more therapeutic usefulness due to its enhanced alpha 1 - receptor selectivity.
Mechanism of action - It possesses strong alpha 1 adrenoreceptor inhibiting properties. It is a potent and effective antihypertensive agent that can be used with beta-blockers and thiazide diuretics.
SAR
- Prazosin has three structural components: a quinazolme ring, a piperazine ring, and an acyl moieity.
- The quinazolin ring's 4-amino group is essential for receptor affinity.
- Without affecting affinity, the piperazine moiety can be swapped with other heterocyclic moieties (for example, the piperidine moiety).
- The acyl group's nature has a substantial impact on the pharmacokinetic characteristics.
Therapeutic uses - Heart attacks and high blood pressure are treated with it. It can also assist to increase the flow rate of urine.
Adverse reactions - Nasal congestion, dizziness, weariness, nausea, sleepiness, blurred vision, and orthostatic hypotension are some of the side effects of prazosin.

Rye and other cereal grains are infested with the parasitic fungus, ergot. Ergot alkaloids have two basic actions: they activate smooth muscles and they inhibit alpha-adrenoceptors.
Mechanism of action - Dihydroergotamine enhances a-blocking efficacy while decreasing smooth muscle stimulant action.
Metabolism - The cytochrome P-450 enzyme is involved in the metabolism of dihydroergotamine, just as it is in the metabolism of macrolide antibiotics.
Therapeutic uses - Dihydroergotamine is used to treat migraines. Because migraine and vascular headache pain are associated with vasodilation and odema, hydroergotamine, which acts on vascular smooth muscle, is beneficial and should be delivered during the vasoconstriction phase.
Adverse reactions - Nausea is a frequent adverse effect of IV treatment and less prevalent in other forms of administration. To alleviate nausea, antiemetics can be used before to DHE. Triptans have comparable risks and contraindications. There is a risk of coronary artery vasospasm if DHE and triptans are administered within 24 hours of one another. DHE does not cause dependency. Vomiting, impaired vision, and nasal tightness are all symptoms.

It is essentially similar to methyl ergonovine, with the exception of the methyl group being replaced with indole nitrogen. Although all ergot alkaloids are amide derivatives of lysergic acid, diethyl amine lysergic acid has a strong hallucinogenic impact.
Mechanism of action - Serotonin (5-HT) receptors are binded and activated by methylsergide. Its therapeutic impact in migraine prevention has been linked to antagonism at the 5-HT2B receptor. This drug is a partial agonist at the 5-HTIA receptor and an antagonist at the 5-HT2C receptor. In addition to acting as a partial agonist on 5-HT receptors, it also acts as a serotonin agonist.
It blocks the effects of serotonin in blood arteries and smooth muscle, although it lacks many of the features of other ergot alkaloids.
Metabolism - In humans, methylergometrine is metabolized to produce methylergometrine, which is responsible for the psychedelic effects of methylergometrine. Methysergide's systemic availability was just 13%, owing to a significant degree of first-pass conversion to methylergometrine.
Therapeutic uses - It's used to treat headaches, carcinoid disease, and serotonin syndrome, among other things.
Adverse reactions - Retroperitoneal fibrosis is a typical adverse effect. Side effects such as pleural and subendocardial fibrosis are infrequent.
