vasodilator
What Medication
reduce total cholesterol when used for an extended period.
reduce cholesterol synthesis in the liver and increase clearance of LDL from the blood.
contraindicated in patients with active liver disease or during pregnancy
statins
isatrovasatin, lipitor
What Medication
Prevents intracoronary thrombosis in patients who are hospitalized with ACS
anticoagulents
herapin
enoxaparin, levonax
What Medication
Inhibits platelet aggregation to prevent clot development
antiplatelets
asprin, ecorine
What Medication
Inhibits the sympathetic nervous system response to physical activity
decreases cardiac workload and oxygen consumption
beta blockers
metroprolol, lopresor, toprol xl
What Medication
Reduces blood pressure, which decreases workload and oxygen demands Particularly beneficial in patient with HTN, diabetes, renal disease, and heart failure
ace inhibitors ARB
lisinopril (Zestril),
losartan (Cozaar)
What Medication
Used when patients cannot tolerate beta blockers
Lowers blood pressure and increases blood flow through the coronaries
prevents coronary artery spasms in Prinzmetal’s/variant angina
calcium channel blockers
linsinopril, zestril
losartan, cozaar
What Medication
Dilates coronary arteries to improve blood flow and oxygen supply to the myocardial cells Can also be given to reduce afterload
