Here is a complete, detailed set of 8-mark answers for all four sections (c through f), drawn from Katzung, Lippincott, Miller's Anesthesia, and Goodman & Gilman:

QUICK SUMMARY OF KEY EXAM POINTS

Before the full answers, here are the highest-yield facts per section:

c: Pilocarpine = parasympathomimetic + glaucoma drug. Atropine = prototype parasympatholytic. Epinephrine = nonselective sympathomimetic. Clonidine = central sympatholytic (α2 agonist).
d: Succinylcholine = depolarizing, fastest onset (RSI). Rocuronium + sugammadex = best non-depolarizing pair. Dantrolene = malignant hyperthermia.
e: Amides = lidocaine/bupivacaine (two "i"s). Esters = procaine/cocaine (one "i"). Mechanism = Na⁺ channel block from inside. Bupivacaine cardiotoxicity → treat with 20% lipid emulsion.
f: MG = anti-AChR antibodies → pyridostigmine (symptomatic) + prednisolone/azathioprine (disease-modifying) + thymectomy. Glaucoma = prostaglandins (1st line, open-angle), pilocarpine (emergency, both types), timolol (β-blocker), dorzolamide (CAI).

All four sections above are fully written out with classifications, mechanisms, drugs, pharmacological effects, uses, adverse effects, and comparison tables - everything needed for an 8-mark exam answer. Let me know if you want any section expanded further or formatted differently (e.g., as short notes, flowcharts, or mnemonics).
