How do kidneys control BP
|
Baroreceptors in kidneys
Decrease in arterial BP---> Kidneys secrete Renin (secreted when Na low)--> Renin coverts Angiotensinogen to Angiotension I----> Angiotension II in lungs by ACE |
|
Most potent vasoconstrictor in the body
Constricts arteries and veins, INCREASING BP Increases GFR Stimulates Aldosterone secretion which increases Na reabsorption--> increase in blood volume--> increase BP |
Angiotension II
|
|
1. Heart Failure: Increase renin secretion by juxtaglomerular cells in response to low renal perfusion
Increase renin secretion in response to sympathetic stimulation due to decrease perfusion Renin increases Angiotension II Aldosterone Increases---> NaCl and H2O reabsorption---> increase blood volume High levels angiotension II BAD on heart causing remodeling and fibrosis |
Antagonists of Renin-Angiotension System
|
|
Drug of choice for Heart Failure
Inhibit conversion Angiotension II, Decrease vasoconstrictive effects on arterioles and veins, inhibit metabolism of bradykinin (increasing dilating effect) Effect: Vasodilation Aldosterone secretion is decreased, decrease Na and H2O retention, decreasing blood volume and BP |
ACE Inhibitors
|
|
1. Sulfhydryl Group (Captopril)
2. Dicarboxyl Groups 3. Phosphorous Groups (Fosinopril) |
Three groups ACE Inhibitors
|
|
ACE Inhibitors are ester pro-drugs and differ from one another in 3 ways
|
1. Potency
2. Whether the pharmacological effect is due to the parent compound or it's metabolite 3. Pharmacokinetics (extent of absorption, with or without food, T1/2, distribution, and route of excretion) Differ in TISSUE DISTRIBUTION |
|
All block Angiotension I from becoming Angiotension II
1. Therapeutic indications 2. Adverse effects 3. CI |
ACE Inhibitors Similarities
|
|
What ACE Inhibitors are not excreted by the kidneys
|
Fosinopril and Spirapril (excreted by liver and kidneys)
|
|
Which pts should the dose of ACE Inhibitors be reduced?
|
Impaired renal function b/c increase duration of plasma conc---T1/2
Pts with elevated plasma renin activity; they have a hyper-reactive response (pts with HF and Na depletion)---induced hypotension |
|
Pro-drug of epinephrine
Increases the lipid solubility by 600x vs epinephrine Ocular penetration is 16X that of epinephrine Biochemically altered to improve kinetics but does not participate in pharm effect |
Dipivefrin---Propine
|
|
1. Propine
2. Prostaglandins (Latanoprost, Travaprost, Bimatoprost, Tafluprost) 3. Valacyclovir---> Acyclovir 4. Famciclovir---> Penciclovir 5. Bacampicillin--> Ampicillin 6. L-Dopa--> Dopamine 7. Nevanac--> Amfenac |
PRO-DRUGS
Amoxicillin is not the pro-drug of Ampicillin Acyclovir = pre-drug |
|
Bioavailability 75%
Peak plasma conc in 1 HR T1/2: 2 HRS 40-50% excreted unchanged Food decreases bioavailability by 25-30%, dose 1hr BEFORE meals Dose 6.25mg - 150mg bid to tid |
ACE INHIBITORS with Sulfydryl groups
Captopril |
|
Pro-drug, cleaved in liver to Benazeprilat--dicarboxylic acid form
More potent than capyopril, lisinopril, enalapril Rapidly 37% absorbed Completely metabolized Peak plasma conc: 1/2-1 hr for benazepril, 1-2 hr for benazeprilat T1/2 10-11 hrs ONLY ACCUMULATES IN THE LUNG Dose: 5-80mg/day |
ACE INHIBITORS with Dicarboxylic groups
Benazepril (Lotensin) |
|
Enalapril maleate is the pro-drug of the carboxylic acid enalaprilat
60% absorbed NOT DECREASED BY FOOD Peak levels in 1hr; Peak of enalaprilat 3-4hrs T1/2 1.3hrs for enalapril; 11hrs for enalaprilat Dose: 2.5mg-40mg HF 2.5mg; HTN 5mg |
ACE INHIBITORS with Dicarboxylic groups
Enalapril (Vasotec) |
|
Primarily for IV
HTN: 0.625-1.25mg IV over 5 min, repeat every 6 hrs as needed |
ACE INHIBITORS with Dicarboxylic groups
Enalaprilat |
|
Lysine analog of enalaprilat, ACTIVE
