Enalapril Nsg
*Recognize angioedema, monitor K, BP, cough, do NOT use in pregnancy
Carvedilol Class/Tx
Beta-Blocker/Heart Failure
Carvedilol AE
Bronchoconstriction, inhibits glycogenolysis (masks hypoglycemia), caution in DM
Carvedilol Nsg
Take BP & pulse before admin, monitor hypoglycemia, teach to never stop abruptly.
Carvedilol Fx
Improves LVEF, prolongs survival, increases ecercise tollerance.
Digoxin Class/Tx
Cardiac Glycoside/Heart Failure
Digoxin MOA
Positive inotropic action: increase force of ventricular contraction, increase cardiac output, decrease preload & afterload, decrease blood volume & water retention.
Digoxin AE
*Yellowish Halos (Toxicity), dysrhythmias, AV block, severe bradycardia, anorexia, N/V, fatigue, dizziness, blurred vision.
Digoxin Nsg
Monitor K, give slowly if IV.
Digoxin Toxicity
Hold Dig and K wasting diuretics, monitor K
Give Digibind if severe
