Cards

Term
Chlorthalidone
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Hygroton 6.25-25mg/day 1 Inhibits Na+ and Cl- reabsorption in the distal tubules causing increased excretion of Na+, water, K+, and H+
Term
Hydrochlorothiazide
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA

Term
Furosimide
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Lasix 20-80mg/day 2 Inhibits NaCl reabsorption in the ascending Loop of Henle and distal renal tubule, causing increased excretion of Na, Cl, water, Mg, and Ca
Term
Bumetanide
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Bumex 0.5-4 Inhibits NaCl reabsorption in the ascending Loop of Henle and distal renal tubule, causing increased excretion of Na, Cl, water, Mg, and Ca
Term
Torsemide
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Demadex 10-80 Inhibits NaCl reabsorption in the ascending Loop of Henle and distal renal tubule, causing increased excretion of Na, Cl, water, Mg, and Ca
Term
Triamterene
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Dyrenium 50-100 2 Interferes with K/Na exchange (active transport) in the distal tubule, cortical collecting tubules and collecting duct by inhibiting Na/K-ATPase
Term
Spironolactone
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Aldactone 25-50 1-2 Competes with aldosterone for receptor sites in the distal renal tubules. Increases NaCl and water excretion, while conserving K+ and H+ ion. May block the effect of aldosterone on arteriolar smooth muscle
Term
Captopril
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Capoten 12.5-150 2-3 Competitive inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), the enzyme that converts angiotensin I  angiotensin II (potent vasoconstrictor). Decreased angiotensin II leads to decreased vasopressor activity and decreased aldosterone secretion
Term
Losinopril
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Prinivil, Zestril 10-40(80) 1 Competitive inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), the enzyme that converts angiotensin I  angiotensin II (potent vasoconstrictor). Decreased angiotensin II leads to decreased vasopressor activity and decreased aldosterone secretion
Term
Rampril
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Altace 2.5-10 1-2 Competitive inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), the enzyme that converts angiotensin I  angiotensin II (potent vasoconstrictor). Decreased angiotensin II leads to decreased vasopressor activity and decreased aldosterone secretion
Term
Quinapril
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Accupril 10-80 1-2 Competitive inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), the enzyme that converts angiotensin I  angiotensin II (potent vasoconstrictor). Decreased angiotensin II leads to decreased vasopressor activity and decreased aldosterone secretion
Term
Losartan
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Cozaar 50-100 1-2
Term
Valsartan
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Diovan 80-320 1
Term
Amlodipine
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Norvasc 5-10 1 Inhibits the influx of calcium through low-voltage (L-type) channels on cell membranes, leading to coronary and peripheral vasodilation
Term
Diltiazem SR
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
120-360 2
Term
Diltiazem ER
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Cardiazem LA, Cardiazem CD, Dilacor-XR, Tiazac, Taztia XT 120-360 1
Term

Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Calan SR, Isoptin SR 180-480 1-2
Term
Petropolol
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Levatol 20 1 nonselective beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist
Term
Metropolol succinate
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Toprol XL 25-400 1 selective activity on beta(1) adrenoreceptors
Term
Carvedilol
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Coreg 6.25-25 2 nonselective beta-adrenergic blocking agent with alpha 1-adrenergic blocking activity and no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity
Term
atenolol
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Tenormin 50-100 1 synthetic beta(1)-selective adrenoreceptor blocking agent without membrane stabilizing or intrinsic sympathomimetic activities. It inhibits beta(2)-adrenoreceptors primarily found in bronchial and vascular musculature at higher doses
Term
Doxazosin
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Cardura 1-16 1 Works on the peripheral vasculature and inhibits norepinehprhine (NE) uptake at α1 receptors in smooth muscle cells, resulting in vasodilation and BP lowering
Term
Hydralazine
Definition
Brand Dose Freq MOA
Apresoline 20-100 2-4 Direct arteriolar smooth muscle relaxant. These agents exert little to no venous vasodilation
