 Ans: -centrally and peripherally acting adrenergic neuron blockers
-centrally acting alpha2 receptor agonists
-peripherally acting alpha1 receptor blockers
-peripherally acting beta receptor blockers
-peripherally acting dual alpha1 and beta receptor blockers


2). Centrally acting alpha2 receptor agonists

 Ans: -stimulate alpha2-adrenergic receptors in the brain
-decrease sympathetic outflow from CNS
-decrease norepinephrine production
-stimulate renin activity in the kidneys
-decrease blood pressure
Ex: clonidine (catapres), methyldopa (aldomet)


3). Clonidine

 Ans: useful in management of withdrawal symptoms in opioid-dependent person


4). Peripherally acting alpha1 receptor agonists

, 5). "azosin" adverse effects

 Ans: hypotension (first dose)
syncope
diziness

 Ans: Reduce BP by reducing heart rate
-cause reduced secretion of renin
-long term use causes peripheral vascular resistance
-improve survival after MI
Ex: nebivolol, propanolol, atenolol


7). Dual action alpha1 and beta receptor blockers

 Ans: reduce HR (beta1)
cause vasodilation (alpha 1)
result in decreased BP

8). Adrenergic adverse effects

 Ans: high incidence of orthostatic hypotension
bradycardia w/reflex tachycardia
sexual dysfunction
dry mouth

,  Ans: inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme preventing angiotensin 1 from being
converted to angiotensin 2
-decreased systemic vascular resistance (afterload)
-vasodilation
-decreased blood pressure


11). Angiotensin 2

 Ans: potent vasoconstrictor
causes aldosterone secretion from the adrenal glands


12). Indications for ace inhibitors

 Ans: -first line drugs for HF and HTN

form to be effective


15). "pril" adverse effects

 Ans: hyperkalemia
angioedema
dry, nonproductive cough (reverses when therapy is stopped)


16). Angiotensin ii receptor blockers "sartan"

 Ans: -block receptors that receive angiotensin II
-block vasoconstriction and release of aldosterone
-well tolerated, do not cause cough
Ex: losartan, valsartan

 Ans: URI
Headache
occasional dizziness
inability to sleep
diarrhea
dyspnea
hearburn
nasal congestion
back pain

19). Calcium channel blockers

 Ans: cause smooth muscle relaxation by blocking the binding of calcium to its
receptors, preventing smooth muscle contraction


20). Indications for calcium channel blockers

 Ans: HTN
Angina
dysrhythmias
migraine headaches
raynaud's disease


21). Diuretics

 Ans: decrease plasma and extracellular fluid volumes
-decreased workload of the heart and decreased BP


22). Thiazide diuretics

 Ans: first-line antihypertensives


23). Vasodilators
