Ibutilide
Dofetilide 
Dronaderone 
Sotalol
20
Q

Class 4: Calcium Channel Blocker (2)

A

Verapamil

Diltiazem

21
Q

Class 5: Others

A

Adenosine
Digoxin
Magnesium Sulfate

22
Q

Angina Nitrates (3)

A

Nitroglycerine (pivotal drug for angina)
Nitric oxide
Isosorbide

23
Q

BB with similar effects of nitrates (2)

A

Carvedilol and Lebatalol

They have both alpha 1 and beta blocker activity

24
Q

What category does Bepridil fall into?

A

CCB for angina, which causes dilation of coronary arteries

25
Q

Metabolic modifier (1)

A

Ranolazine, which limits Na influx.

26
Q

Positively Inotropic Drugs (3) used in heart failure

A

Digitalis Glycoside: Digoxin
Adrenoreceptor agnost: Dobutamine
Phosphodiesterase inhibitor: Milrinone

27
Q

How does digitalis work?

A

Blocks Na/K ATPase pump, which indirectly blocks the Na/Ca pump, thus keeping intracellular Ca high and increasing contractility.
Causes hypokalemia
Don’t give digoxin in wolf parkinson white.

28
Q
Inotropic Drugs 
(MOA= inhibits phosphodiesterase causing cAMP increase and dilation)
A
Drugs that end in -rinone.
Amrinone
Inamrinone (thrombocytopenia)
Milrinone (decrease survival in HF)
29
Q

Drug given for acute heart failure?

A

Dobutamine, which increases contractility.

30
Q

Na Channel blockers (big guns)

A

Class 1A: Quinidine, Procainamide, and Disopyramide.

Increased increase APD and ERP in atria, ventricles, and purkinje fibers.
