renin inhibitors
af americans htn is more --- and more ---, w/ --- onset
common

severe

earlier
af americans more likely to have low --- and to have --- --- htn
PRA (plasma renin activity)

salt sensitive htn
what's the ideal intial tx for af americans
diuretics

ccb
--- drugs often required for af americans
multiple
af americans tend to have more --- organ damage
target
t/f

af americans bp lowered at night
f

less lowering
t/f

monotx w/ acei, arbs, and bb effective in af americans
f
caucasian bp
high renin

high CO htn
t/f

caucasians likely to be salt-sensitive
f

less likely
what are good initial tx for caucasians
bb

acei

arbs
t/f

all first line tx for caucausians work well even ccb and diuretics
t
w/ combo drugs racial differences ---
disappear
t/f

ok to start atenolol in blacks first when doing combo drugs
f

cuz less effective
htn in elderly
isolated systolic htn
--- preferred in elderly
diuretics
elderly tend to have --- w/ bp meds
orthostatic hypotension
elderly htn more --- based
vascular

cuz as you age the vessles harden, hypertropy and are less able to vasodilate
why orthostatic hypotension in the elderly
cuz baroreceptors delayed. . . falls and hip fxs can occure due to dizziness/syncope
what meds can you give to pregnant women
BB

hydralazine

CCB
what meds to avoid in pregnancy
thiazide

ACEI

ARBS
initial tx w/ preeclamia
bedrest

then start meds if that doesn't work
what do you give ment w/ bph
alpha blockers
t/f

when increasing hctz dose there will be an increase in effectiveness
f

little reduction in bp and there will be more SE
if pt on hctz, is it ok to switch to amlodipine
no!

cuz same pathway
t/f

if pt loses weight and bp ok then ok to stop bp meds
t
labetalol has --- --- blockade also

so can cause orthostatic hypotension
doxazosin can cause --- ---
orthostatic hypotension. . . alpha 1 blockade
a nonselective bb and a1 blocker
carvedilol

will also cause orthostatic hypotension
atenolol is b-- selective receptor antag
b1

will not cause orthostatic hypotension
why can't you give hctz in pregnancy
might interfere w/ amniotic fl vol

can lead to vasoconstriction

alpha mediated
which med has good long term benetifs w/ pvd
ramipril (acei)
which med is good for pvd cuze they dilate
nifedipine

(dhp dilate cuz they work peripherally)

however, they have no long term effects
t/f

hctz help w/ pvd
f
which diuretic is good for renal disease
loop
why give captopril for renal disease
cuz it slow renal disease

but since decrease GFR, start low and go slow
how do bb affect renal disease
neutral
hctz might not work w/ renal disease. why
cuz might not reach site of action
meds that are ok to use w/ dm
diltiazem (ndhp. . .neutral)

quinapril (acei. . . slow nephropathy)
why shouldn't you give acei in asthma pt
due to possible ace cough

(but they might still mask hypoglycemic effects, but not same effects on glucose as other bb)
is it ok give bb w/ dm, but post mi or hf
yes

benefit > risk
