RAAS Drugs - Where they act


DRI - What do they do?

Direct Renin Inhibitor - Renin inhibitors bind to the active site of renin and inhibit the binding of renin to angiotensinogen, which is the rate-determining step of the RAAS cascade.

DRI - Drugs?

Only available is Aliskeren taken only as tablet

DRI - SE/Contraindications?

Hypotension, generally safe drug

ACEI - What do they do?

ACE inhibitors produce vasodilation by inhibiting the formation of angiotensin II. They are nearly all prodrugs and end in ''Pril''. Used in Hypertension, Heart failure and Post-myocardial infarction.

ACEI - Drugs?

End in Pril E.G. Enalapril taken as a tablet 5, 10 or 20 mg. Note Lisinopril and Captopril are drugs not prodrugs unlike the rest.

ACEI - SE/Contraindication

SE- Dry cough (because ACE also breaks down bradykinin and breakdown is thus inhibited), Hypotension, Angioedema, Hyperkalemia (occurs because aldosteroneformation is reduced)




CI- Impaired renal function


Aortic valve stenosis


cardiac outflow obstruction


Hypovolemia


dehydration


Hemodialysis


Pregnancy

Angiotensin 2 Receptor blocker (AT1) - ARB - What do they do?

Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) are medications that block the action of angiotensin II by preventing angiotensin II from binding to angiotensin II receptors on the muscles surrounding blood vessels thus vasodilate. For hypertension, heart failure, kidney failure in people with diabetes.

ARB - Drugs?

- End in Sartan


- Vasopril - Oral Tabl 80 mg general or oral sol.


- Losartan Tabl



ARB- SE/Contraindications?

SE


- cough


- Hypotension


- Rash


- Kidney and liver failure




CI


- Cat D so no use in pregnancy


- Kidney DMG


- Renal Artery Stenosis

Aldosterone Antagonists

Aldosterone acts on the distal tubules and collecting ducts of the nephron, increasing reabsorption and excretion of ions out of and into the tubular fluids of the kidney, to cause the conservation of sodium, secretion of potassium, and thereby indirectly influencing water retention. AA blocks this.

Aldosterone Antagonist - Drugs?

Spironolactone


- film coated tabl


- causes hormonal imbalance can be good for women and bad for men.




Eplerenone


- film coated tabl



Aldosterone Antagonist - SE/Contraindications

SE


- mild nausea or vomiting


- diarrhea


- breast swelling or tenderness


- dizziness, headache, mild drowsiness


- leg cramps


- impotence, difficulty having an erection.




CI

Q. ACEI/ARB + Saluratics?

Dangerous both produce hyperkalemia causing cardiac arrest and death.

Q. ACEI/ARB + Betablockers

This combination has proved to be more effective than monotherapy in a number of studies, some of which are reviewed. Moreover, there is evidence that this combination may be beneficial after myocardial infarction. Combined use of ACE inhibitor and beta-blocker therapy therefore warrants further investigation.

Q. ACEI/ARB + Aldosterone antagonist

Dangerous - spironolactone K sparing and acei causes hyperkalemia
Q. ACEI/ARB + NSAIDS

NSAIDs inhibit cox1 so no PG so no vasodilation. So have Vasoconstrictive effect which is causes higher bp and ACEI and ARB try to reduce it.

Cardioinotropic drugs: Cardiac Glycosides - What do they do?

If you have heart disease, Digoxin is a medication that helps an injured or weakened heart work better to send blood through the body.
