Labetalol
MOA
Adrenergic receptor blocking agent that possesses blocking activities for both nonselective, competitive beta-adrenergic receptors and selective, competitive a1 adrenergic receptors in a single substance
Labetalol SE
Orthostatic Hypotension
Nasal Congestion
Bronchospasm
Hyperkalemia
Labetalol Class and IND
Beta Blocker
HTN & HTN Crisis
Verapamil class and ind
CCB
AFib/flutter
HTN
Angina
Verapamil MOA
L-type calcium channel inhibitor (slow-channel blocker) that selectively blocks the transmembrane influx of calcium ions into arterial smooth muscles including conductible and contractile myocardial cells, without affecting the concentration of serum calcium.
Verapamil SE
Edema
HypOtension
Constipation
HA
Triamterene/HCTZ
C&I
Tri-Pot Sparing diuretic
HCTZ-Thiazide diuretic
Edema and Hypertension
Triamterene/HCTZ MOA
Triamterene, a potassium-sparing diuretic, inhibits the reabsorption of sodium in exchange for potassium and hydrogen ions by exerting a direct effect on the distal renal tubule.
Hydrochlorothiazide is an antihypertensive and diuretic agent that affects the electrolyte reabsorption at the distal renal tubule resulting in increased excretion of sodium and chloride in equal amounts. The antihypertensive action of thiazides is still unknown
Tri/HCTZ SE
Hyperkalemia hyperuricemia Hypotension, electrolyte abnormalties hyperglycemia
Tri/HCTZ BBW
May cause hyperkalemia which if uncorrected can be fatal
Valsartan Class and Ind
ARB
HTN
Valsartan MOA
nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARB), selective for the AT1 receptor
Valsartan SE
Hypotension
Increase BUN, SCr
Angioedema
BBW Valsartan
PREGGO
Quinapril Class and Ind
ACE-I
HTN
Quinapril MOA
Quinapril hydrochloride is rapidly converted to quinaprilat, an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, that prevents the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II which is a potent vasoconstrictor agent
Quinapril SE
Hyperkalemia
angioedema
cough
Quinapril BBW
PREGGO
Ramipril Class and IND
ACE-I
HTN
Ramipril MOA
an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, is metabolized to a more potent ramiprilat (active drug)
Ramipril SE
Hyperkalemia
angioedema
cough
Ramipril BBW
PREGGO
Lisinopril class IND
ACE-I
HTN
Lisinopril MOA
Lisinopril is a long-acting ACE inhibitor. ACE inhibition prevents the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II, which is a potent vasoconstrictor
