Roles Classification
Biological Role(s): alpha-adrenergic antagonist
An agent that binds to but does not activate alpha-adrenergic receptors thereby blocking the actions of endogenous or exogenous alpha-adrenergic agonists. alpha-Adrenergic antagonists are used in the treatment of hypertension, vasospasm, peripheral vascular disease, shock, and pheochromocytoma.
sympatholytic agent
Any compound which inhibits the postganglionic functioning of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS).
