cardiac Flashcards
what are examples of loop diuretics
frusemide
bumetanide
inhibit na/k/cl triple transporter in ascending loop of henle and increase NaCl excretion
what are the side effects of loop diuretics?
hypokalaemia
hyponatramia,magnesia, calcaemia
postural hypotension
increased urate
what are CI of loop diuretics
refractory hypokalamia
anuric renal failure
what are interactions of loop diuretics?
increase toxicity of: digoxin NSAIDs gentamicin lithium
what are examples of thiazide diuretics?
bendrofluazide, metolazone, chlortalidone
inhibit NaCl transporter in DCT and increase NaCl excretion
what are are side effects of thiazide diuretics?
hypokalamia
hyponatraemia
hypercalcaemia, increased urate, glucose + DM
postural hypotension
what are CI of thiazide diuretics?
refractory hypokalaemia
gout
severe renal failure
what are interactions of thiazide diuretics?
increase toxicity of:
digoxin
lithium
what are examples of aldosterone receptor antagonists?
spironolocatone
eplerenone
increase na excretion, decrease k + h excretion
what re side effects of aldosterone receptor antagonists?
hyperkalaemia
gynaecomastia in spiro
what are CI of aldosterone receptor antagonists?
hyperkalaemia
addisons
p?
what are interactions of aldost. receptor antagonsits?
increase toxicity of dig + li
what are the side effects of ACE-I?
hypotension- esp with diuretics, HF
RF
hyperkalaemia
dry cough
what are the CI of ACE-i?
bilateral RAS
what are interactions of ACE-i?
increase risk factors with NSAIDs
diuretics, TCAS + antipsychotics increase risk of hypotension
caution with drugs that increase K+ like spiro
