what drugs are thiazide diuretics
HTCZ, Chlorthalidone, metolazone
What are the adverse effects of thiazide diuretics?
Orthostatic hyPOtension
hypoKalemia, Hyponatermia, HyPERcalcemia, increase in uric acid, increase glucose
What are the adverse effects of thiazide diuretics?
Orthostatic hyPOtension
hypoKalemia, Hyponatermia, HyPERcalcemia, increase in uric acid, increase glucose
what drugs are thiazide diuretics
HTCZ, Chlorthalidone, metolazone
how do aldosterone receptor blockerswork
competes with aldosterone, prevents sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion in the distal tubule
What are the adverse effects of thiazide diuretics?
Orthostatic hyPOtension
hypoKalemia, Hyponatermia, HyPERcalcemia, increase in uric acid, increase glucose
how do potassium sparing drugs work
block sodium reabsportion, and potassium excretion independent of aldosterone
How do loop diuretics work?
inhibit transport of sodium, chloride and potassium in the ascending lop of Henle excreting these ions
what are the adverse effects of loop diuretics
hypokalemia, hyponatermia, hypocalcemia, hypomagenesmia and Increase in uric acid
Ototoxic
Increase Serum Creatinine
How do ACE work
inhibit ACE to block the production of ATII
which inhibits the breakdown of bradykinin which is a vasodilator
Also dilates efferent arteriole of kidney
how do aldosterone receptor blockerswork
competes with aldosterone, prevents sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion
which drugs are postassium receptor blockers
Triamterene
Amiloride
how do potassium sparing drugs work
block sodium reabsportion, and potassium excretion independent of aldosterone
what are the adverse effects of potassium sparing diuretics
Spironolactone?
HYPERKALEMIA
SPironoloactone: gynocomastia, menstrual irregularities
what drugs are part of the ACE inhibitors
anything that ends on -pril
Lisinopril
captoril
enalapril
what beta blockers are alpha and beta blockers
Carvedilol and labetalol
