23
Q

Is bradykinin active? Is Angiotensin I active

A

ANgiotensin I is inactive and Angiotensin II is actove. ACE inhibitors stop the activation of angiotensin I

Bradykinin is active. ACE cleavs it and makes it inactive. ACE makes it inctive. ACE inhibitors keep t active

25
Q

How does ACE affect bradykinin

A

When ACE deactivates bradykinin, it blocks vasodilation. Causing vasocinstriction and increasing BP.

ACE inhibitors stop this inactivation of bradykinin

Q

Aliskiren MOA

A

It is a renin inhibitor that stops formation of ANG I from angiotensinogen

37
Q

What is a contraindication for all RAAS drugs (renin inhibitors, ACE inhibitors, ARBs)

A

Pregnant and nursing

38
Q

Ace inhibitor drugs all end in

39
Q

What is the most potent ACE inhibitor

40
Q

What is something all ACE inhibitors share in common with each other

A

They are prodrugs (except lisinopril)

41
Q

What are the 3 ACE inhibitor classes

A

Sulfhydryl containing
Dicarboxyl containing
Phosphorous containing

42
Q

Sulfhydryl containing ACE inhibitor prototype

A

Captoptril

43
Q

Dicarboxyl containing ACE inhibitor prototype

44
Q

Phosphorous containing ACE prototype

A

Fosinopril

45
Q

Most commonly used ACE inhibitor

A

Lisinopril

46
Q

Which ACE inhibitor is not a prodrug

A

Lisinopril

47
Q

What is enalaprils name when active? ROA? Prodrug or not?

A

Enalaprilat

Oral and IV

Prodrug

48
Q

Captoptril pro drug or no? side effects?

A

Not pro drug

may cause rashes

49
Q

How can we tell if an ACE inhibitor is active or a prodrug from a structure

A

If the structure has two carboxylate groups, it is ACTIVE

50
Q

How is enalapril activated? How can we tell the structure apart

A

Esterase cleaves it and activates it.

has ester group and carboxylic acid group

51
Q

How can we differentiate captopril structurally

A

sulfohydryl (HS group)

52
Q

How can we tell fosinopril apart from the other ACe inhibitors

A

Has phosphate group

53
Q

What do ACE inhibitors do

A

Reduce vasoconstriction and reduce myocardial mitogenic actovity

54
Q

1st line tx for HTN

A

ACE and ARB

55
Q

Demographics of who ACE inhibitors and ARBs could benefit most

A

Works least on african american

56
Q

ACE inhibitors side effects

A

Dry cough, Angioedema, hyperkalemia

57
Q

NSAID and ACE inhibitor inhibitor worry

A

NSAIDs may lower effectiveness

58
Q

Why is cough and angioedema a side effect for ACE inhibitors but not ARBS (AT1)

A

Cough and angioedema caused by bradykinin pathway. ARBs do not affect this pathway.

59
Q

how do NSAIDs affect ACE inhibitors

A

NSAIDs block the production of prostaglandins. This lowers the hypotensive effect of ACE

60
Q

ARBs all end with? also known as

A

-SARTANS

AT1 receptor blockers

61
Q

MOA of ARBs

A

Block angiotensin I receptors with a much higher affinity for AT1 versus AT2

62
Q

Are ARBs more selective for AT1 or AT2

63
Q

least potent ARB? most potent ARB?

A

least- losartan
most- candesartan and omesartan

64
Q

Main ARBs

A

Losartan and Valsartan

65
Q

Recognize the ARB scaffold

A

phenyl ring attatched to imidazoline

66
Q

How to differentiate Valsartan and Losartan structurally

A

Valsartan has an Isopropyl group (looks like a V)
Losartan has an OH group (LOHsartan)

67
Q

T/F Even though losartan is the least potent ARB, Losartans metabolite is as potent as valsartan

68
Q

in what order do we try ACE and ARBs

A

ACE 1st, then ARB

69

MOA
-potassium sparring diuretic

Q

adverse effects of spironolactone

A

Hyperkalemia
Gynecomastia

74
Q

1st line drugs for HTN

A

Diuretics (thiazides)
ACE inhibitors
ARBs
CCBs

In no particular order

75
Q

2nd line drugs for HTN

A

Loop diuretics
sympatholytics (B and A blockers)
Direct renin inhibitor

76
Q

Two thiazide drugs

A

Chlorthalidone
Hydrochlorothiazide

77
Q

Where do thiazides work? what transorter does it use?

A

DCT
Uses Na-CL transporter

78
Q

Do thiazides work well in african americans?

A

Good for AFrican americans
Not good for diabetes patients

79
Q

Side effects of Thiazides

A

Hyperkalemia, Hyperuremia, Hypercalcemiia

80
Q

Why are loop diuretics not 1st line?

A

Single doses are potent but very short acting

81
Q

Drugs to avoid in pregnancy

A

ACE inhibitors
ARBs
Direct renin inhibitors
Aldosterone antagonists
