Term
Procainamide, Disopyramide, and Quinidine are what class of drug? What is their mechanism of action?
Definition
Class IA; inhibit Na fast channels in activated state(moderate effect) --> decreased phase 4 slope and prolonged QT
Term
Lidocaine is what type of drug? MOA?
Definition
Class IB antiarrhythmic; blocks Na fast channels in inactivated state; mild phase 4 effect - SHORTENS repolarization (decreases duration of AP)
Term
flecainide, propafenone are what drug class? MOA?
Definition
Class IC - marked block on Na channels and big effect on phase 4 - NO effect on repolarization
Term
Metoprolol, Propanolol are what class of antiarrythmic? MOA?
Definition
Class II, slows conduction in pacemaker cells to block reentry arrythmias
Term
Amioarone, dronederone, bretylium, Ibutilide, Dofetilide, and Sotolol are what class of drug? MOA?
Definition
Class III antiarrhthmic; primarily K+ blockade --> prolonged repolarization = increased QT
Term
verapamil and diltiazem are what class of antiarrhythmic? MOA?
Definition
Class IV; CCB - L-type in heart --> works on SA, AV pacemaker cells to prolong repolarization
Term
Adenosine and Digoxin are what type of drugs? MOA?
Definition
Antiarrhythmics; act on pacemaker cells to decrease condution in AV node and rate of pacemaker cell discharge
