34
Q

besides hypertension, what else are alpha 1 antagonists used to treat

inc plasma lipids
ototoxicity

36
Q

what is clonidine

A

alpha 2 agonist

37
Q

what hormone does ACE inhibitors prevent the formation of

38
Q

almost all ACE inhibitors are eliminated by:

A

the kidney

39
Q

what converts AngI to AngII

A

angiotensin converting enzyme

40
Q

what do alpha 1 antagonists do

A

reduce peripheral vasoconstriction

41
Q

increased levels of bradykinin can cause what

A

angioedema
dry cough

42
Q

how do thiazide diuretics work

A

they block teh Na/Cl co-transporter

43
Q

almost all diuretics are ____

A

natriuretics

44
Q

where on the nephron does thiazide diuretics affect

A

distal convoluted tubule

45
Q

what are two functions of ACE

A

convert AngI to AngII
break down bradykinin

46
Q

why are vasodilators often combined with beta-blockers and diuretics

A

because they tend to inc HR and cause water and sodium retention
(as the body compensates)
