why do HTN drugs fail
|
ppl dont take them
**ppl lower BP nad decerase the number of drugs needed by: loosing weight, no smoke, no salt, exercise |
|
there are SO many HTN drugs, can they be combined
|
sure thing
combining can decrease dose needed and decerase side effects |
|
any new HTN drugs must...
|
decrease BO by 10%, new drugs must be as effective as the old ones
|
|
shoudl we decrease pressure fast
|
nope, needs to be gradual
**also cant be too low. coronary perfusion pressure is the diastolic pressure and needs to be more than 90 |
|
in pts ikder than 50 what is more important, systolic or diastolic
|
systolic >140 is BAD
|
|
what is the first line drug for HTN

|
what are the 4 major big classes of HTN tx
|
1. oral diuretics. thiazide, DOC for HTN
2. sympatholytics 3. direct vasodilators 4. Angiotensin inhibitor |
|
tell me about the use of thiazides for HTN
1. effectiveness 2. mech 3, side effects |
1. used as DOC, lower BP in 4-60% of peeps
2. decrease Na stores --> decrease blood volume. Long term will activate K channels --> decreased resistance. decreased Na content in SM 3. not common bc hte dose is lower to tx HTN than for diuresis. but... impotence, gout, hypokalemic alkalosis, increase renin. decreased glucose tolerance and increased lipids. **indapamide: also a dilator |
|
if a person is impotent, no longer tolerant to glucose, has increased lipids, hypokalemic alkalosis, and hyperurecemia and their BP is 120/80 what might they be taking
what was the short term and long term effect of getting such great BP |
thiazides
Long Term:decreased Na in SM cell --> decreased preipheral resistance SHort Term: decreased na leads to decreased blood volume to decrease BP **when thiazides are used for HTN there are less side effects when they are used as diuretics bc they are used in lower doses for HTN tx. but still impotence with lower dose |
|
thiazides are more effective in who
|
Aferican Americans (might have said caucasians, but its African Americans)
Old **impotence side effects |
|
ok so diuretics for HTN
1. Thiazide 2. Loop 3. K sparring |
1. THiazides: first choice, good in old blacks, low dose with dilators, ACEi or b blockers to counteract Na/Fluid retention. cheap. not good for sulfonamide allergies
2. Loop: severe cases only in pts with renal insufficiency or CHF 3. K sparring: in combination with thiazides/loops to decrease K loss. NOT used in combination with other K sparring drugs like ACEi adn ARB |
|
ok so thiazides are first line drugs for HTN, when might you not use them
|
its a sulfonamide so not used in ppl with allergies
|
|
K sparring diuretics shoudlnt be combined with what other HTN drugs, what are they combined with
|
ACEi, ARB: these are also K sparring
**good to combine them with K loosing diuretics like loop adn thiazides |
|
Angiotensin --> Angiotensin I --> angiotensin II

ANG I --> ANG II: stim by ACE (angiotensin converting enzyme) blocked by ACE inhibitors like captopril |
|
what do sympatholytic drugs do to baroreceptor reflex
|
activate baroreceptor reflex and cause Na retention
**Na retention is balanced by combining with a diuretic that will decrease Na |
|
the centrally acting sympatholytics are what
|
the a2 agonists. they inhibit NE release at medulla so there is less SNS tone
methydopa clonidine |
|
what is the action of clonidine and methydopa
|
a2 agonists for HTN
**decrease NT release via presynaptic **innhibit neurons via post synaptic **decrease BP by decreased renin and decrease vasoconstriciton |

reserpine- depletes NE in vesicles. interactions with MAOi **bind to NE containing secretory vesicles and inhibit release --> decrease SNS --> dilation --> decreased BP |
|
what is the adrenergic neuron blockers that interacts with MAOi
what is the adrenergic neuron blocker that inhibits exocytosis and can cause HTN crisis in pts with pheochromocytoma |
reserpine
guanethidine **both prevent NE release to decrease SNS, which means vasodilation and then decrease in BP |
|
what side effects are seen with:
guanethidine reserpine |

can cause bradycardia in pts with SA/AV node block
dont use in pts with block or CHF |
|
what are hte prils
whats the active, whats the pro |
ACE inhibitors
Active: captopril ProDrug: Captopril Enalapril and others... |
|
what is the thing about the metabolism/use of ACEi
|
they are all prodrugs that need to be convertived to active except for Captopril, its active
|
|
whats hte mech of action for the prils
|
ACE inhibitors
Angiotensin Converting Enzyme converts ANG I to ANG II. when this cant be done ANG II no longer works and BP is decreased |
|
whats active ANG I or II
|
II its activated by ACE
ANG II constricts so when its not working we get dilation, but NO reflex tachy with ACEi |
|
ok so ACE converts ANG I to II is this hte ony thing it does
|
nope its also called peptidyl dipeptidase and it kills bradykinin
when we have ACEi we have increased bradykinin. high bradykinin leads to coughing, angioedema and decreased HTN |
|
wht class of drugs is associated with an increase in bradykinin
|
ACEi
the ACE enzyme is also called peptidly dipeptidase and it destroys bradykinin so when we ahve ACEi we have increased bradykinin, this is good to decrease HTN but it also causes cough and angioedema |
|
do ACE inhibitors ("prils") affect the brain kidney or heart? what are the side effects
|
nope
mild side effects with no change in lipid panels **no reflex tachy bc it resets baro |
|
are ACEi used as monotherapy
|
ya, they are good and have few side effects, all can be given orally (as prodrug, need to be metabolized into active)
|
|
for ppl with DM renal disease, L vent hypertrophy what anti HTN drug is good
|
ACEi
**good in young/middle age whites. not so good in blacks |
|
are ace inhibitos (prils) good in blacks
|
not really better in young/middle age whites
good for: DM renal disease L vent hypertrphy |
|
what 2 anti HTN work really well together
|
diuretics and ACEi
ACEi decrease ALDO secretion so there is less Na reabs. the Na loss induced by diuretics is unopposed diuretics enhance hte anti HTN effec of ACEi **just be sure its not a K sparring diuretic bc --> hyperkalemia |
|
what are the pharmakokinetics of ACEi
|
oral
liver metabolism (good for ppl in renal failure) |
|
what are some adverse effects of ACE inhibitors (prils)
|
1. hypotension in hypovolumic pts
2. cough (bradykinin is increased and causes this as well as angioedema) 3. hyperkalemia bc no ALDO 4. renal failure 5. CI in pregnancy 6. rash 7. altered taste |
|
are ACEi good for preggos
|
nope
|
|
wht drug interactions are there with ACEi
|
K sparring diuretics. can get hyperkalemia
NSAIDS (decreased dilation, bradykinin --> PG) |
|
should you use K sparring diuretics with ACEi
|
nope, risk of hyperkalemia
|
|
what are the "sartans"
losartan valsartan |
Angiotensin R Blocker (ARB)
|
|
ARB block which ANG II R specifically
|
AT1. are in vascular SM and cause most of hte effects of ANG II
**DONT AFFECT bradykinin |
|
what affects bradykinin ACEi or ARB
|
ACEi
**ARB ("sartans") wont cause the cough and angioedema htat ACEi do |
|
whats more effective losartan or atenolol
|
losartan (ARB) *****
atenolol (b1 blocker) **less mortality, less side effects |
|
whats hte pahrmacokinetics of ARB (sartans)
|
oral
variable first pass liver metabolism **simliar to ACEi |
|
what are the adverse effects of hte ARB (sartans)
|
simiair to ACEi but NO cough or angioedema bc ARB dont increase bradykinin
*hypotension is hypovolumic pts *renal failure *no reflex tachy *CI in preggo *hyperkalemia maybe, dont use with K sparrring *rash |
|
losartan and valsartan are what
|
ARB,
|
