|
bisoprolol
|
betablocker
reduces sympathetic adaptive effects of heart failure B1 selective |
|
carvedilol
|
betablocker
reduces sympathetic adaptive effects of heart failure B1, B2, A1 nonselective |
|
metoprolol
|
betablocker
reduces sympathetic adaptive effects of heart failure B1 selective |
|
digoxin
|
cardiac glycoside
increases cardiac contraction by increasing free Ca: decreases reflex SNS activity and increases renal perfusion inootropic benefits, effects on sympathetic nerves and kidney ARRHYTHMIA |
|
digitalis
|
cardiac glycoside
inootropic benefits, effects on sympathetic nerves and kidneyincreases cardiac contraction by increasing free Ca: decreases reflex SNS activity and increases renal perfusion |
|
eplerenone
|
aldosterone antagonist
reverses structural effects, water retention severe heart problems, lv problems after MI HYPERKALEMIA reduces mortalitity in III and IV with an ACEI |
|
spironolactone
|
aldosterone antagonist
reverses structural effects, water retention severe heart problems, lv problems after MI HYPERKALEMIA reduces mortalitity in III and IV with an ACEI |
|
isosorbide dinitrate
|
vasodilator: VEINS
increases CA flow used as combo w. hydralazine Toxicity: headache/hypotension, tolerance |
|
hydralazine
|
Vasodilator: ARTERIAL
*reduces renal vasculature resistance combo with isosorbide dinitrate Toxicity: GI, headahce |
|
nitoglycerine
|
vasodilator: NO source
VENOUS CAPACITANCE uses: l. sided HF due to MI Toxicity: tolerance, headache |
|
Dopamine
|
B AGONST A AGONIST (high infusion)
B: stimulated cardiac contractility A: VC to support a dropped Pa Toxicity: tachycardia can provoke MI in patients with CAD |
|
Dobutamine
|
B-agonist (nonselective)
uses: systolic dysfunction Iontropic effect predominates, little change in HR, VD increases flow to renal and heart. Tolerance develops |
|
inamrinone
|
cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor
increase cAMP: stimulate contraction and accelerate relaxation use: advanced heart failure |
|
milrinone
|
cAMP phosphodiesterase inhibitor
increase cAMP: stimulate contraction and accelerate relaxation use: advanced heart failure Better side effect profile, more selective for PDE3, shorter half life |
