Q

How does an ace inhibitor slow progression of kidney disease?

A

Decrease Angiotensin II –> vasodilation of the efferent arteriole –> pressure in glomerulus fall–> slows the progression to chronic kidney disease

16
Q

Which drug is a patch that is changed every 7 days

A

17
Q

Side effect is SLE syndrome

A

isosorbide dinitrate (Isordil) and hydralazine

18
Q

Giving loading doses of this cardiac glycoside is called, why do it?

A

digitalization

half life of 1/5 days –> get up to therapeutic dose

19
Q

cardiac glycoside is first or second line therapy for hf?

A

second line!

20
Q

Which drug do you Start with small doses 1/10 or 1/20 and doubled every 2 weeks

A

Adrenergic Agents: Beta Blockers

Prototype: “lols” -Metoprolol XL (Lopressor, Topol XL)

21
Q

Adrenergic Agents: Beta Blockers HTN vs HF vs Angina

A

HTN/Angina: Metoprolol
HF: Metoprolol XL (Lopressor, Topol XL)

XL=succinate = long acting

22
Q

PRN pill for reduce HTN w/in 30 minutes

A

Alpha2 Adrenergic Agonist: clonidine (Catapres)

23
Q

Ca Channel Blockers: HTN or HF or Angina?

A

HTN, Angina

24
Q

HCN Channel Blocker- HTN or HF?

A

HF

25
Q

Only drug that treats HF, HTN, and Angina

A

BB

26
Q

Ca Channel blocker for Angina vs HTN

A

Angina - Diltiazem

HTN- Verapamil, Nifedipine

27
Q

No grapefruit juice (3)

A

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

28
Q

match chronotrope, dromotrope, and inotrope with contractility, conduction, and HR

A

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

29
Q

List the anticoag

A
  1. Heparin/LMW
  2. Vit K (Warfarin)
  3. Xa - (Apixaban/Rivoraxban)
  4. Thrombin - (Dabigatran)
31
Q

A

HEPARIN :

  • APTT: 60-80
  • XA: .3-.7

WARFARIN:

  • PTT: 12-24
  • INR : 2-3
32
Q

stop clopidrogrel/plavix (ADP) before surgery?

A

only if cardiologist approves

33
Q

don’t mix these drugs with liver disease

A
  1. HMG Coa (statin)
