Antihypertensive agents Flashcards
prehypertension
120-139/80-89
stage I hypertension
140-159/90-99
loop diuretics target
Na/K/2Cl cotransporter TAL LOH
thiazide diuretics target
Na/Cl cotransporter DCL
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors (PCT)
*acetazolamide
brinzolamide
dorzolamide
methazolamide
loop diuretics (TAL LOH)
*ethacrynic acid
*furosemide
bumetanide
torsemide
thiazide diuretics (DCT)
*chlorthalidone
*hydrochlorothiazide
bendroflumethiazide
chlorothiazide
hydroflumethiazide
indapamide
methyclothiazide
metolazone
polythiazide
thrichlormethiazide
K-sparing diurertics
Aldosterone antagonists *spironolactone eplerenone Epithelial Na channel (ENaC) inhibitors *amiloride triamterene
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors MOA
*acetazolamide
inhibits membrane-bound and cytoplasmic carbonic anhydrase in PCT. Results in:
high Na+ and HCO3- in lumen
*high urine pH, low body pH

loop diuretics MOA
*furosemide and ethacrynic acid
inhibit luminal Na/K/2Cl cotransporter in TAL LOH. Results in:
decreased intracellular Na+, K+, Cl-, Ca2+, and Mg2+
extremely efficacious
