54
Zestril and Prinivil / Lisinopril perpous
Prevents the formation of Angiotensin II, which is responsible for increasing blood pressure by constricting arteries, activating aldosterone, and increasing the blood volume the heart must pump
55
Cardura / Doxazosin perpous
Inhibits the constriction of arteries to decrease blood pressure
56
Cozaar / Losartan classification
Blocks the action of Angiotensin II, which causes blood vessels to dilate and reduce blood pressure
57
Toprol XL, Lopressor / Metoprolol perpous
Relaxes the heart muscle, which slows the heart rate and decreases blood pressure.
58
Norvasc / Amlodipine perpous
Inhibits the constriction of arteries and relaxes the heart to decrease blood pressure.
59
Lasix / Furosemide perpous
inhibits the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the proximal and distal tubules and the Loop of Henle found in the kidneys.
60
HZTZ / Hydrochlorothiazide purpose
inhibits the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the distal tubule. Both loop and thiazide diuretics increase renal output, resulting in a decrease of blood volume and, thus, lowering blood pressure.
61
Questran / Cholestyramine purposes
Binds intestinal bile acids
62
Zetia / Ezetimibe perpose
Inhibits cholesterol absorption in the small intestine.
63
Tricor / Fenofibrate perpose
Inhibits triglyceride synthesis and stimulates catabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins.
64
Atorvastatin / Lipitor purpose
Inhibits cholesterol synthesis
65
Niacin / Niacor purpose
Decreases hepatic LDL and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) production.
66
Lovaza / Fish oil purpose
Reduces hepatic triglyceride synthesis
67
Prevents the formation of Angiotensin II, which is responsible for increasing blood pressure by constricting arteries, activating aldosterone, and increasing the blood volume the heart must pump
Zestril and Prinivil / Lisinopril class
68
Inhibits the constriction of arteries to decrease blood pressure
Cardura / Doxazosin classification
69
Blocks the action of Angiotensin II, which causes blood vessels to dilate and reduce blood pressure
Cozaar / Losartan classification
70
Relaxes the heart muscle, which slows the heart rate and decreases blood pressure.
Toprol XL, Lopressor / Metoprolol classification
71
Inhibits the constriction of arteries and relaxes the heart to decrease blood pressure.
Norvasc / Amlodipine classification
72
inhibits the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the proximal and distal tubules and the Loop of Henle found in the kidneys.
Lasix / Furosemide classification
73
inhibits the reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the distal tubule. Both loop and thiazide diuretics increase renal output, resulting in a decrease of blood volume and, thus, lowering blood pressure.
HZTZ / Hydrochlorothiazide classification
74
Binds intestinal bile acids
Questran / Cholestyramine classification
75
Inhibits cholesterol absorption in the small intestine.
Zetia / Ezetimibe classification
76
Inhibits triglyceride synthesis and stimulates catabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins.
Tricor / Fenofibrate classification
77
Inhibits cholesterol synthesis
Atorvastatin / Lipitor purpose
78
Decreases hepatic LDL and very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) production.
Niacin / Niacor purpose
79
Reduces hepatic triglyceride synthesis
Lovaza / Fish oil purpose
