Beta Blockers
The LOLs -reduce BP by preventing beta receptors in the heart to be stimulated, there by lowering bp decrease the HR and dilate the blood vessals , decrease cardiac work load .
-
Beta blockers common adeverse sides effects
Impotence, Bradycardia, dizziness, weakness, hypotension, n/v, diarrhea, nervousnes
-
Beta blockers
Acebutolol, atenolol(Tenormin) , betaxlol,bisoprolol,
esmolol, metoprolol( Lopressor), nadolol, nebivolol, pindolol, propanolol, sotalol, timolol,
-
Ace Inhibitors - The prils ,Reduce Pulmonary congestion and peripheral edema
May cause significant drop in BP when treatment is intiated causing ortho HTN,
Prevents sodium and water from being retained and b/p decreases
Common sides affects DRY COUGH,less effective in blacks , Heache, dizziness, fatigue
Benzepril, catopril, enalapril, fosinopril, lisinopril, moexipril, perindopril,quinapril, ramipril, trandopril
-
Calcium channnel blockers - inhibit the flow of CA+ across cardiac cells so they relax arterial smooth muscle and lower bp thru vasodialation , increase the suppl of o2 to the heart, and reduce work load
Common adverse affects - headaches, dizziness,
- Amlodipine(norvasc)
- diltiazem(cardizem) use for HTN, atrial fib/flutter,
- felodipine, isradipine, nifedipine(procardia), nisoldpine,verapamil
-
Nitroglycerin- act by relaxing the smooth muscle layer of blood vessals , increasing the lumen of the artery or arteriole, and increasing the amount of blood flowing the vessals . Sn increse blood flow results in and increase in O2 supply to surrounding tissues .
Side effects - headache , hypotension, dizziness, weakness, flushing , rash
-
Thrombolytics aka fibrolytic- dissolve blood clots that have already formed with in the walls of a blood vessal
Common sides effects - bleeding
alteplase, retaplase, streptokase, tenecteplase, urokinase,
-
Digoxin - Hf atrial fibriallation
Side effects - headache, weakness,drowsiness, visual distubances, n/v, arrythmais
-
Antiarrhythmic drugs
- BB- Acebutlol, propanolol,
- Potassium channel blockers- amiodarone, bretylium,dofetilde, ibutikide, sotalol
- Calium channel blocker- verapamil
