diuretics
|
hydrochlorothiazide, furosemide, spironolactone
|
|
diuretics type
|
thiazide, loop and potassium sparing
|
|
thiazide
|
hydrochlorothiazide
|
|
loop
|
furosemide
|
|
potassium sparing
|
spironolactone
|
|
MOA of hydrochlorothiazide
|
inhibits nacl transport in distal convoluted tubule preventing sodium reabsorption
|
|
MOA of furosemide
|
inhibits na k cl exchanger in the thick ascending limb of the loop of henle
|
|
MOA of spironolactone
|
inhibits aldosterone receptor and thus aldosterone mediated increase in na pump uptake of sodium from lumin into blood
|
|
therapeutic use of hydrochlorothiazide
|
alone for mild to moderate hypertension (can lower bp 10-15) or severe hypertension when used in combination with sympathoplegic or vasodilatory agents
|
|
therapeutic use of furosemide
|
severe hypertension in combination or hypertensive emergency with acute left ventricular failure
|
|
therapeutic use of spironolactone
|
similar to thiazide but no potassium wasting, better when pt is on digoxin
|
|
CNS acting hypertension drugs
|
methyldopa, clondine, guanabenz and guanfacine
|
|
moa methyldopa
|
converted to active produts in nerves producing a2 receptor antagonist
|
|
moa clondine, guanabenz and guanfacine
|
a2 receptor antagonist
|
|
clinical use of cns acting hypertension drugs
|
mild to moderately severe hypertension
|
|
SE methyldopa
|
positive coombs test, sedation, depression
|
|
SE clondine
|
similar to methyldopa plus dry mouth
|
|
SE guanabenz and guanfacine
|
similar to the rest
|
|
ganglionic blockers
|
mecamylamine
|
|
MOA mecamylamine
|
block nicotinic receptors in autonomic ganglia thus preventing transmission
|
|
USE of mecamylamine
|
hypertensive crisis, acute aortic dissection and to induce controlled hypotension for neurosurgery
|
|
adregenic nerve blockers
|
guanethidine, guanadrel, reserpine
|
|
moa guanethidine, guanadrel
|
blocks release of norepi, replaces NE in synaptic vessicles acting as a false transmitter
|
|
MOA reserpine
|
irreversib le block of amine uptake into synaptic vessicles resulting in depletion of NT
|
|
use of adrenergic blockers
|
lower blood pressure via inhibition of NE from sympathetic nerves
|
|
tox guanethide and guanadrel
|
postural hypotension, retrograde ejaculation
|
|
tox of reserpine
|
CNS effects, GI, not to be given to pt with hx of peptic ulder
|
|
b1 and 2
|
propanolol
|
|
b1 specific
|
metaprolol, esmolol
|
|
partial agonist
|
Pin, pen ace
|
|
racemic mixture
|
carve the labia
|
|
use of propanolol
|
mild to moderate hypertension and in combo with vasodilatiors to prevent reflex tachy
|
|
use of metoprolol
|
similar to propanolol but with less lung effects
|
|
use of esmolol
|
IV hypertensive emergency with MI or unstable angina
|
|
use of pin pen ace
|
similar to propanolol but may be better in pts with depressed cardiac fx or lung disease
|
|
use of carve the labia
|
hypertension due to pheochromocytomas and hypertensive emergencies (IV labetolol)

|
a1 receptor blockers and their use
|
zosins and mild to moderate hypertension
|
|
ace inhibitors
|
prils
|
|
MOA ace inhibitors
|
inhibits angiotensin converting enzyme thus preventing angiotensin I from conversion ot angiotension II and also inhibits breakdown of bradykinin
|
|
use of ace inhibitors
|
hypertension with elevated renin levels or when CHF and diabetic neuropathy. (IV enapril for malignant hypertension)
|
|
tox of ace inhibitors
|
initial dose induced severe hypotension when hypovolemic. Renal failure. Hyperkalemia, not for preggos. NSAIDS may impair
