classes of drugs for treating angina
organic nitrates and nitrites

beta adrenergic blockers

ca channel blockers
MOA

organic nitrates and nitrites
vessel dilation and inhibits platelet aggregation (via interaction with sulfhydryl groups producing nitric oxide and s-nitrosothiol)

increases cyclic GMP = decreasing Ca = vessel dilation & reduced aggregation & adhesion
Classification

organic nitrates and nitrites
rapid onset & short duration

longer onset & longer duration
nitroglyglycerin
organic nitrates and nitrites

used for acute anginal attack
rapid onset & short duration

ADMIN: sublingual (pill), IV, spray = all bypass first metabolism

MOA: vessel dilation and inhibits platelet aggregation (via interaction with sulfhydryl groups producing nitric oxide and s-nitrosothiol)

increases cyclic GMP = decreasing Ca = vessel dilation & reduced aggregation & adhesion
isosorbide dinitrate
organic nitrates and nitrites

used for acute anginal attack
rapid onset & short duration

ADMIN: sublingual (pill)

MOA: vessel dilation and inhibits platelet aggregation (via interaction with sulfhydryl groups producing nitric oxide and s-nitrosothiol)

ADMIN:extended release tablet, transdermal ointment/patch

MOA: vessel dilation and inhibits platelet aggregation (via interaction with sulfhydryl groups producing nitric oxide and s-nitrosothiol)

increases cyclic GMP = decreasing Ca = vessel dilation & reduced aggregation & adhesion
