Q

Acetazolamide MOA

A

Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitor: CA converts CO2 and water into bicarb (or vice versa). By blocking this process, bicarb is lost in the tubular fluid and a metabolic acidosis results. Loses effectiveness when metabolic acidosis develops

Q

Thiazide altered responses with chronic kidney disease

A

Lose efficacy in later stages of CKD as less drug reaches site of action as kidney fails. More efficacious Loop Diuretic necessary at GFR < 30 ml/min. Resistance can occur at later stages of CKD- overcome with synergistic combo of Loop + Metalozone

Q

Aldosteron antagonists MOA

A

Competitively inhibit the mineralocorticoid receptor (eplereonone is more specific) and block binding of Aldosterone. This decreases activity of Na/K exchanger Reducing the reabsorption of sodium and secretion/excretion of potassium.

Q

Angiotensin II actions

A

vasoconstriction. Salt/water retention, growth stimulation, disease progression

21
Q

Angiotensin II role in kidney disease

A

A-II causes small amount of afferent arteriole constriction and a large amount of efferent arteriole constriction. This increases pressure load and wall tension rises. Growth and destruction occur, leading to end stage renal failure

22
Q

ACEI MOA

A

blocks the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, preventing angiotensin II-mediated vasoconstriction and stimulation of aldosterone release. Blocks degradation of bradykinin. Bradykinin (along with Substance P) cause bronchoconstriction and stimulate irritant receptors

23
Q

ACEI adverse effects

A

cough, hyperkalemia, mild increase in serum creatinine, angioedema

24
Q

ARBs examples

A

Losartan, irbesartan, candesartan, valsartan

25
Q

ARBs MOA

A

Irreversibly blocks the actions of angiotensin II at AT1 receptor. Prevents angiotensin II-mediated vasoconstriction, aldosterone release

26
Q

ARBs adverse effects

A

hyperkalemia, rise in serum creatinine, angioedema

27
Q

ACEI and ARB uses

A

HTN, CKD, Heart Failure, Diabetic nephropathy

28
Q

List calcium channel blockers

A

Dihydropyridines (DHP): amlodipine, nislodipine, nifedipine, felodipine. Non-dihydropyridines (NDHP): diltiazem, verapamil

29
Q

Calcium channel blockers MOA

A

Cause arterial vasodilation and lower peripheral vascular resistance by blocking L-type calcium channels. Dihydropyridines are selective for blood vessels, while non-DHP bind equally to cardiac (decrease conduction, negative chronotropy and inotropy) and vasculature.

30
Q

Calcium channel blockers side effects

A

DHP: peripheral edema, increased HR, gingival hyperplasia. Non-DHP: constipation, bradycardia, nausea

31
Q

Calcium channel blocker uses

A

DHP: HTN (african americans and elderly), migraine prophylaxis. Non-DHP: angina, rate control for atrial fibrillation, migraine prophylaxis, HTN

32
Q

Calcium channel blockers drug interactions

A

DHP and non-DHP to a small extent, are inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and caution should be used with statins, immunosuppressants, warfarin, grapefruit juice.

33
Q

Beta blocker examples

A

Selective beta 1 (cardio) receptor blockers: atenolol, metoprolol. Non-selective beta 1 and beta 2 (located in bronchial and vascular system) blockers: propranolol, timolol. Beta and alpha blocker: carvedilol, labetalol

34
Q

Beta blocker MOA

A

Beta-1 selective beta-adrenergic receptor blocking agents compete with catecholamines at peripheral adrenergic neuron sites, block cardiac receptors to decrease cardiac output, and suppress renin activity

35
Q

Beta blocker side effects

A

•decrease libido, bradycardia, bronchospasm, glucose/lipid changes

36
Q

Beta blockers route of elimination

A

metoprolol- renal and hepatic elimination. Atenolol- renal elimination.

37
Q

Beta blocker uses

A

Post MI/CAD (ist line), heart failure, HTN, angina, migraine prophylaxis

38
Q

List direct vasodilators

A

hydralazine, minoxidil

39
Q

Vasodilators MOA

A

–Increase intacellular cGMP > relaxation of arterial smooth muscle > decrease systemic pressure and contractility. This causes increased heart rate, stroke volume and CO. Renin secretion increases causing stimulation of aldosterone and sodium reabsorption

40
Q

Vasodilators side effects

A

•edema, tachycardia, lupus rash (hydralazine), neuropathy, hair growth (minoxidil)

41
Q

List Alpha-1 receptor blockers

A

terazosin, doxazosin, prazosin

42
Q

Alpha-1 receptor blockers MOA

A

Selectively block alpha-1 adrenergic receptors. This causes a reduction in systemic vascular resistance, thus causing an antihypertensive effect. Also decreases urethral resistance and may relieve the obstruction and improve urine flow and BPH symptoms

43
Q

Alpha-1 receptor blockers side effects

A

•: postural hypotension, dizziness, somnolence, nasal congestion/rhinitis, and impotence

44
Q

Alpha-1 receptor blockers uses

A

Benig prostatic hypertrophy

45
Q

Compare relative action on arteries vs veins for direct vasodilators, calcium channel blockers, ACEI, alpha blockers

A

Direct: A»V. CCB: A»V. ACEI: A>V. Alpha blockers: A+V

46
Q

Lis alpha-2 receptor agonists

A

Clonidine, methyldopa

47
Q

Alpha-2 receptor agonist MOA

A

stimulate presynaptic alpha 2 receptor >decrease sympathetic tone > decrease PVR and CO

48
Q

Alpha-2 receptor agonist side effects

A

•dry mouth, depression, lipid abnormalities, sedation

49
Q

Alpha-2 receptor agonist uses

A

Methyldopa is used during pregnancy. Clonidine off label for smoking cessation, ADHD. Both are 3/4th line HTN treatment
