Drugs For Stable Angina And Vasospastic Angina - Dr. Konorev Flashcards
4 drugs used for stable and vasospastic angina
- Nitrates
- CCB
- B-Blockers
- Ranolazine
stable angina
occlusion of coronary artery not complete, from atherosclerotic plaque
SX during stress+exertion
Vasospastic angina
vasosconstiction episodes in coronary arteries
= genetic
= SX at rest
if a drug lowers O2 demand in the body what does it do
lowers CO
how to increase or restore coronary BF in stable angina
- coronary artery bypass grafting
- Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
- Stent : expandable tube used as scaffolding to keep vessel open
= drugs dont help**
when do coronary arteries have the most BF
during diastole
drugs for decrease O2 demand do what during stable angina
prevent high HR (when systole increase and diastole shortens = lower BF)
drugs for decrease O2 demand do what during stable angina
prevent high HR (when systole increase and diastole shortens = lower BF)
phenotolamine does what
vasodilates BV causing tachycardia = decrease BF in coronary arteries not good for stable angina
3 Nitrates drugs for stable angina
- Nitroglycerine
- Isosorbide dinitrate
- Isosorbide mononitrate
nitrates delivered how
metabolized by liver fast
= so skin, subQ, spray, cream, patch
Nitrates Drugs do what MOA
vasodilation = making NO in endothelial cells
- Guanylyl cyclase activated
- PKG activated
- Myosin-LC Dephosphorylation —-> SM relaxation
- K+ channels open = hyperrepolarization, reducing Ca+ entry = relaxes SM
Nitrate Drugs actions
- venous dilatin
- reduce preload
- lower O2 demand
Nitrates drugs tolorance happens how
- depletion thiol needed
- superoxide radicals bind to it and use it up
- salt and water retention due to the lower BP
short acting vs long acting nitrate drugs in preventing attack
All are long acting and short acting except Isosorbide mononitrate is only long-acing
= LONG usually oral instead of spray , sublingual,
adverse effects of nitrate drugs
- headache
- orthostatic hypotension
- tachy, increases contractility and sympathetic side effect
- Na + and H2O reabsorption
nitrates are also used to tx, drug interaction
erectile dysfunction
= should not be given with already drugs for this, can cause deadly hypotension , acute MI
2 types of CCB
- Non-cardioactive (dihydropyridines)
2. Cardioactive (non-dihydropyridines)
Non-cardioactive (dihydropyridines) 3
- amlodipine
- Nifedipine
- Nicardipine
Cardioactive (non-dihydropyridines) 2
- Diltiazem
2. Verapamil
CCB MOA
- lower Ca+2 entering the cell
- lower activation of MLCK (myosin light chain kinase)
- lowering contraction of SM
==== decrease O2 demand
dihydropyridines act where
non-cardiogenic
= vascular SM
(non-dihydropyridines) Cardioacitve act where
- vascular SM
- cardiac SM
- Cardiac Pacemaker
CCB adverse effects major
- brady
- cardiac depression
- severe hypo
