CCB MOA and toxicity
-blocks voltage depedent L type calcium channels of cardiac and smooth muscle,thereby reducing muscle contractility
-verapamil, diltiazem (heart) > amlodipine, nifedipine (periph)
arteries affected more than veins
Tox: cardiac depression, AVblock, PERIPHERAL EDEMA,FLUSHING, dizziness, constipation, reflex tachycardia,
Hydralazine MOA use, toxicity
increased cGMP,causing smooth muscle relaxation. Vasodilates arterioles more than veins, decreased afterload
Severe HTN, CHF, first line for pregnany with methyldopa
Tox: compensatory tachycardia, FLUID RETENTION, LUPUS LIKE syndrome
Malignant HTN tx
nitroprusside, nicardipine, labtolol
Nitropruusside MOA/Tox
increases cGMP which increases NO, but can cause cyanide toxicity (dilates arteries and vens),
HTN drugs used in pregnancy
Hydralazine, methyldopa, labetalol, Nifedipine and CCB “HTN moms like Nifedipine”
Drugs cauing SLE like sx
Sulfonamides, hydralazine, isoniazid, procainamide, phenytoin
nitroglycerin, isosorbide, dinitrate MOA,use, tox
vasodilates by releasing NO in smooth muscle, causing increased cGMP and smooth muscle relaxation, dilates veins»_space; arteries, causing decreased preload
Use: angina, pulm edema
Tox: reflex tachy, hypoTN, flushing, heaedache
HMG-CoA reductase:
- Effect on LDL, HDL, TG
- MOA
- SE/Tox
decrease LDL XXX
increase HDL X
decrease TG X
MOA: inhibits HmG CoA to mevalonate
SE: hepatotoxicity,rhabdomyolysis
Check LFTs, CPKs
Niacin (VitB3)
- Effect on LDL, HDL, TG
- MOA
- SE/Tox
Decrease LDL XX
increased HDL XX
decrease TG X
Inhibits lipolysis in adipose tissue, reduces hepatic VLDL secretion
SE: red flushed face,rash, itching (can decrease overtime or with aspirin use)
hyperglycemia,hyperuricemia
Bile acid resins (cholestyramine, colestipol)
- Effect on LDL, HDL, TG
- MOA
- SE/Tox
Decreases LDL XX
Increases HDL ~X
Increases TG ~X
Prevents intestinal RAB of BA, liver must use cholesterol to make more
Tox: pts hate it,it tastes bad, GI discomfort, Cholesterol gallstones
Cholesteral absorbtion blockers (ezetimibe)
- Effect on LDL, HDL, TG
- MOA
- SE/Tox
LDL decreased XX
No HDL change
No TG change
Pevent cholesterol RAB at small intestine at brush border
rarely, rising LFTs and diarrhea
Fibrates
- Effect on LDL, HDL, TG
- MOA
- SE/Tox
Decrease LDL X
Increase HDL X
Decrease TG XXX
Upregulate LPL, causing increased TG clearance
Mypsitis, hepatotoxic, cholesterol gallstones
Cardiac glycosides:
MOA/Use/Toxicity
MOA: inhibits Na/K ATPase, leading to indirect inhibtion of Na/Ca exchanger, causing positive inotropy
Use fo CHF (increased contractility), atrial fibrillation (decreased condction at AV node and depresion of SA node)
Tox: cholinergic - nausea, vomitting, diarrhea, blurry YELLOW vision
EKG Changes: increased PR interval, decreased QT interval, T wave inversion, AV block, arrhthmia
can cause hyperkalemia
Mg2+ use
antiarrythmic - Use for Torsades de pointes and for digoxin toxicity
adenoseone use
antiarryhthmic which causes increased K efflux, causing hyperpolarization, so no depolarizations allowed
Drug of choice for dx/abolishing SVT
Tox: flushing, hypotension, chest pain
Antiarryhthmics - Class 1 MOA
Local anesthetic,slow or block conduction, increases effective refractory potential decreaes slope of phase 0, increases thresold for firing in abnormal pacemaker cells
HyperK causes increased toxicity for all class I drugs
Think: Double Quarter Pounder, Mayo Lettuce Tomato, Fries Please
Class IA:
Drugs, MOA,Tox
quinidine, procainamide,disopyramide
-increases AP duration, increases ERP, increases QT interval
Tox: Qunidine (cinchonism)
procainamide (reversible SLE like syndrome)
disopyramide (heart failure)
thrombocyotopenia, torsades de pointes
Class IB: Drugs, MOA,Tox
Lidocaine, mexiletine, tocainde
Decreases AP duration, preferentially affect ischemic or depolarized purkine/ventricular tissue
Useful in acute ventricular arrhyhtmias, esecially post MI
Tox: local anestheticcardiovascular depression
Class 1C: Drugs, MOA,Tox
flecainde, propafenone
MOA: used for ventricular tachcardias that rogress to VF and intractable SVT. Used only as last resort
Tox: proarrythmogenic,especially post mI (CONTRAINDICATED)
Prolons refractory period in AV node
Mechanism of action in anti arrythmics and affeceted phase?
1: Na blockers - affect p0
2: beta blockers - affect p4
3: potassium blockers - affect p3
4: CCB - affect p0
