Q

ACEI effects on the vessels

A

causes vasodilation of the efferent arterioles more than the afferent

will lead to less protein expression because we decrease the pressure in the glomerulus.

hydralazine

Nitroprusside (nitropress)

46
Q

Non-DHP effects

A

block L-type Ca channels which causes prominent cardiac effects (suppression of contractility as well as suppressing the SA and AV node) as well as acting on vascular tissues -> vasodilation.

47
Q

A

Predominantly arteriolar vasodilation even though it still block L-type Ca channels.

48
Q

L type Ca channels

A

type of Ca channels in cardiac myocytes, SA and AV nodal cells.

49
Q

Diltiazem and verapamil contraindications

A

Non-DHP Ca channel blockers.

Not to be used with Beta-blockers -> can lead to AV blocks.

also don’t use in patients with ventricular dysfunction and systolic

50
Q

Amlodipine

A

Ca channel blocker (DHP type).

can be used in hypertension (especially when combined with a Beta blocker “to contract reflex tachycardia”), hypertensive emergencies, angina (reduces demand of 02 on the heart)

51
Q

Nifedipine

A

Ca channel blocker (DHP type).

can be used in hypertension (especially when combined with a Beta blocker “to contract reflex tachycardia”), hypertensive emergencies, angina (reduces demand of 02 on the heart)

52
Q

Potassium channel openers action

A

cause increase permeability of K which will stabilize the resting membrane potential reducing the probability of contraction.

53
Q

Diazoxide

A

K channel opener

can cause excessive hypotension and cause stroke & MI

known to cause hyperglycemia.

54
Q

Minoxidil

A

55
Q

Minoxidil required other drugs

A

Beta blocker and Diuretic. this is needed because the K channel opener causes edema and reflex tachycardia.
