Atenolol
|
Tx- angina, HTN (cheaply w/ diuretics)
-lowers HR/ contractility/ afterload -increase compliance (arterial) |
|
HF beta-blocker
|
Carvedilol
-late stage HF -feel worse for a long time then increase EF -start dry weight and work up |
|
method of administration of nitrate vasodilators

Nitroglycerin (topical)
Isosorbides (p.o.) -will only hit veins |
|
anti-anginal with no change in afterload
|
nitrates
will only hit veins |

problems with nirtoglycerin
|
100% hits heart
-immediate increase in CO may precipate angina -development of tolerance so you stagger the dose |
