Things I cant remember questions Exam 2 Flashcards
Which drug do we not use longer than 72 hours?
nitroprusside (Nitropress)
Causes direct relaxation of arteriole smooth muscle
hydralazine (Apresoline)
A = arteriole = hydrAlAzine
Causes venous and arteriolar dilation
nitroprusside (Nitropress)
drug of choice for HTN emergency
nitroprusside (Nitropress)
drug causes toxic accumulation of thiocyanate
nitroprusside (Nitropress)
drug to give if someone has reflex tachycardia
BB
Direct vasodilators for HTN vs Direct Vasodilators for HF
HTN:
- nitroprusside (Nitropress)
- hydralazine (Apresoline)
HF:
-isosorbide dinitrate (Isordil) and hydralazine
____________________________________
Broken heart = ISOlated
HTN = drugs H and N
RAAS for HF vs RAAS for HTN
HF:
- Ace Inhibitor
- Aldosterone Receptor Blocker
- ARB
- ARNI- sacubitril/valsartan (Ernesto)
HTN:
- ACE Inhibitor
- Aldosterone Receptor Blocker
- ARB
- Direct Renin Inhibitor -aliskiren (Tekturna)
You have to be off an ACE inihibotr for 36 hours before starting this drug
ARNI-sacubitril/valsartan (Entresto)
How does HCN channel fx and whats the prototype? what does it treat?
ivabradine
FXN: slows HR by inhibiting channels in the SA Node (decrease conduction)
HF
compare ARB fxn to Ace inhibitor fxn
ARB: blocks receptors for AT2
ACE inhibitor: stops AT 1 turning into AT 2
Which RAAS drug blocs the entire RAAs system
direct renin inhibitor aliskiren (Tekturna)
How does an ace inhibitor slow progression of kidney disease?
Decrease Angiotensin II –> vasodilation of the efferent arteriole –> pressure in glomerulus fall–> slows the progression to chronic kidney disease
Angioedema and dry cough- which class of drugs and which one does you the most dirty?
RAAS
-Ace inhibitor
Who is centrally acting- alpha 2 adrenergic agonist or alpha 1 adrenergic antagonist
Alpha2 Adrenergic Agonist- clonidine
Which drug is a patch that is changed every 7 days
Alpha2 Adrenergic Agonist- clonidine
Side effect is SLE syndrome
isosorbide dinitrate (Isordil) and hydralazine
Giving loading doses of this cardiac glycoside is called, why do it?
digitalization
half life of 1/5 days –> get up to therapeutic dose
cardiac glycoside is first or second line therapy for hf?
second line!
Which drug do you Start with small doses 1/10 or 1/20 and doubled every 2 weeks
Adrenergic Agents: Beta Blockers
Prototype: “lols” -Metoprolol XL (Lopressor, Topol XL)
Adrenergic Agents: Beta Blockers HTN vs HF vs Angina
HTN/Angina: Metoprolol
HF: Metoprolol XL (Lopressor, Topol XL)
XL=succinate = long acting
PRN pill for reduce HTN w/in 30 minutes
Alpha2 Adrenergic Agonist: clonidine (Catapres)
Ca Channel Blockers: HTN or HF or Angina?
HTN, Angina
HCN Channel Blocker- HTN or HF?
HF
Only drug that treats HF, HTN, and Angina
BB
Ca Channel blocker for Angina vs HTN
Angina - Diltiazem
HTN- Verapamil, Nifedipine
No grapefruit juice (3)
ranolazine (Ranexa) - angina
diltiazem (Cardiazem) /Ca Channel blocker- Angina
Atorvastatin- HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors- lipid lowering
DAR
-Emily Gilmore would not serve grapefruit juice at a DAR meeting
match chronotrope, dromotrope, and inotrope with contractility, conduction, and HR
positive dromotrope = increase conduction
positive chronotropic = increase hr
positive inotrope= increase contractility
Drome= conduct
bad conduct sends you to Detention
Ino- contract
I no wanna sign a contract
Chrono= rate
Chrono = chronological = rate
List the antiplatelets
- aspirin
- ADP (clopidegrel)
- PAR 1 (vorapaxar)
- glycoprotein 2A/3B (acbixmab)
List the anticoag
- Heparin/LMW
- Vit K (Warfarin)
- Xa - (Apixaban/Rivoraxban)
- Thrombin - (Dabigatran)
Therapeutic levels Labs for heparin vs labs for warfarin
HEPARIN :
- APTT: 60-80
- XA: .3-.7
WARFARIN:
- PTT: 12-24
- INR : 2-3
stop clopidrogrel/plavix (ADP) before surgery?
only if cardiologist approves
don’t mix these drugs with liver disease
- HMG Coa (statin)
2. Apixaban/Rivoroxaban (Anticoag- XA inihib)
DM pts: monitor Glucose levels closely & look for other signs of HYPOGLYCEMIA.
Alpha/Beta : carvedilol (HTN)
first dose orthostatic HTN so we give the med at nighttime
prazosin
(Alpha 1 agonist- HTN)
Ace inhibitor
