Companies, Inc.
DIURETICS
Drugs with a direct renal action.
Augment urine excretion (diuresis) by inhibiting the
reabsorption of NaCl and water.
Indications:
1. Mobilization of edemas: increase renal excretion of Na+
and H2O.
2. Antihypertensive therapy: decrease peripheral
resistance.
3. Therapy of congestive heart failure: decrease
peripheral resistance, cure symptoms of venous
congestion.

Enalapril 10-40 mg/day in 1 or 2 doses
Lisinopril 10-40 mg once daily
Perindopril 2-8 mg daily
Ramipril 1.25-10mg once daily
Angiotensin II receptor
blockers (ARBs)
Used for hypertension, may be used as an alternative
to ACE inhibitors in the management of heart failure
and diabetic nephropathy.
Irbesartan 150-300 mg once daily
Losartan 25-100 mg once daily
Valsartan 80-160 mg once daily
Nursing Actions
BETA-BLOCKER
By blocking cardiac -receptors, -Blockers serve to lower
cardiac rate and lower the elevated blood pressure caused by
high cardiac output.
The mechanism
underlying their
antihypertensive
action via reduction
of peripheral
resistance is unclear.

NITRATE-TOLERANCE
Tolerance to nitrate can develop rapidly
This may be due to depletion of sulfhydryl (S-H)
groups in the vascular smooth muscle. These
groups are needed to convert nitrate to NO.
Nursing Actions
Headache
Orthostatic
hypotension
Tolerance
NITRATE: NURSING
IMPLICATIONS
Teach the patients:
NTG needs to absorb from mouth so dont swallow, may
crush tab with teeth to speed absorption if pain is severe
If chest pain continues after taking 3 slow/sustained
release (SL) tablets at 5-minute intervals then seek
emergency care
Carry with you at all times
Keep in dark glass bottle and get new supply every 6
months

VASODILATORS
Venodilators: Reduces preload by trapping blood in the
venous circulation
Arteriolar dilators: Reduces afterload by reducing arterial
resistance
Potensial side effect:
hypotension
OTHER
VASODILATORS
Hydralazine:
Dilate arterioles
Treats hypertension
Less postural hypotension
Minoxidil:
Dilate arterioles
For severe hypertension
Diazoxide:
Given i.v. causes prominent arteriolar dilation
For hypertensive crises
Can be used in the management of insulin-secreting pancreatic
tumors.
Nitroprusside sodium:
Dilate venous and arterioles
Given i.v. for hypertensive crises
DIGITALIS, CARDIAC
GLYCOSIDES
In severe cases of myocardial insufficiency,
digitalis may be added to augment cardiac force
(positive inotrope) and to relieve the symptoms of
insufficiency.
Very narrow therapeutic index.
Very long half-life.
Digoxin has many drug interactions:
diuretics,verapamil, amiodarone, etc.

SIDE EFFECTS OF
DIGITALIS
Dysrhythmias
Bradycardia
Toxicity very narrow therapeutic index
hypokalemia makes it easier for toxicity to
occur
Anorexia, nausea, vomiting
Disturbances of color vision
Fatigue
DIGITALIS: NURSING
ALERTS
Withhold the drug & contact the physician if there are any
signs of digoxin toxicity or marked changes in the pulse
rate/rhythm (bradycardia)
Monitor digoxin levels closely: should be smaller than 2
ng/mL
Older adults are particularly prone to digoxin toxicity
Screen for factors that potentiate digitalis toxicity:
hypokalemia, impaired renal function, oral antibiotics,
quinidine, amiodarone, Ca++ channel blockers

CLASSIFICATION OF
AARDS
a) Variables for normal tissue models in ventricular tissue. b) Variables for SA and AV nodal tissue only.
c) Also has type II -blocking actions. d) Classification controversial. e) Not clinically manifest. f) Also

Side Effects
Bleeding
Thrombocytopenia heparin induced
Hypersensitivity
Therapeutic effect is monitored by PTT (partial
thromboplastin time) every 6 hours and dose adjusted to
achieve PTT 1.5-2.0 times normal level
Nursing Alerts:
Monitor for signs and symptoms of bleeding: low HR,
hypotension, tachycardia, epistaxis
Avoid injuries
Hold injection sites longer than usual
ORAL
ANTICOAGULANTS
Warfarin
Act as false vitamin K and prevent regeneration of active
vitamin K from vitamin K epoxide, hence the synthesis of
vitamin K-dependent clotting factors.
Vitamin K promotes activation of factors II, VII, IX, and X.
Peak effects take several days.
Therapeutic Uses: Long-term prophylaxis of thrombosis, e.g.
in patients with prosthetic heart valves/atrial fibrillation.
