4. ADR on lipids
5. Hallucinations
6. Raynaud
7. Bronchoconstriction
8. Sexual dysfxn
9. Mask hypoglycemia
Nitrates:
Low doses?
In low doses, incr venous dilation and thus reduce preload
Nitrates:
Medium doses?
in medium doses, incr arteriolar dilation and subsequently decr afterload and preload
Nitrates:
High doses?
in high doses, incr coronary artery dilation and subseq. incr oxygen supply
Nitrates - SE
Orthostatic hypotension
Reflex tach
Throbbing HA
Blushing

CI if sbp<90!
