| Anti-Cholenergic Drugs |
Side affects: Palpatations, headche, restlessness, ataxia, dry mouth, blurred vision |
| Beta-adrenergic/Beta Blockers |
decrease heart rate, blood pressure, contractility and stroke volume |
| Beta-adrenergic/Beta Blockers |

| Beta-adrenergic/Beta Blockers |
decrease Oxygen demand of heart and allowes for increased exercise tolerence |
| Calcium Channel Blockers |
vasodilate and relieve coronary artery spasm |
| Beta-adrenergic/Beta Blockers |
Could reduce blood flow to the heart muscle creating ischemic response |
| Digitalis |
slows heart rate and increase contractility |
| Nitrates |
