Note : Physiological antagonists Physiological antagonists are those that produce opposite action by acting on different receptors. Example Histamine causes bronchoconstriction H1receptors and this action is antagonized by adrenaline which causes bronchodilodation through b1 receptors Leukotrienes cause bronchoconstriction cystinyl leukotriene receptors and this action is antagonised by salbutamol which causes bronchodilatation through b2 receptors.
