Receptor Theory
l Drugs act through
receptors by binding to
the receptors to initiate a
response or prevent a
response.
l It is similar to the fit of the
right key in a lock.

PHARMACOLOGIC
EFFECT
When Autonomic drugs are given, the goal
is not to treat an autonomic disorder, it is to
correct disorders of target organs through
autonomic nerves
