Thiazide diuretics and thiazide like diuretics inhibit Na re absorption in the Distal convoluted tubule (DCT), causing increased excretion of Na, CL, K and water.
Thiazide Diuretics or Thiazide like Diuretics Decrease K, Mg, Na
Thiazide Diuretics or Thiazide like Diuretics Increase Ca, UA, LDL, TG, BG
Thiazide Diuretics or Thiazide like Diuretics cause photosensitivity, Impotence, dizziness, rash
Thiazide Diuretics or Thiazide like Diuretics NOTES when crcl <30 ml/min-Thiazide have a diminished effect - except METOLAZONE (INDICATED FOR volume overload in combo with loop diuretic)
Thiazide Diuretics or Thiazide like Diuretics DDI -Decrease lithium renal clearance and Increase risk of lithium toxicity -Nsaids decrease thiazide diuretic effectiveness -Thiazides can increase Dofetilide serum conc, leading to increased risk of QT prolongation-do not use in combo
Calcium channel Blockers inhibit Ca ions from entering vascular smooth muscle and myocardial cells
DHP- CCBs more selective for vascular smooth muscle,-causes peripheral arterial vasodialation (decreased SVR and BP) and cornonary artery vasodialation.
Non DHP-CCBs are more selective for myocardium, making them less potent vadodialatiors-decrease BP by non-CCBS are due to NEGATIVE INOTROPIC (decreased forced ventricular contraction) and NEGATIVE CHRONOTROPIC (decreased HR) effects.

ACE inhibitors MOA block the conversion of ang I to ang II resulting in decreased vasocontriction and decreased aldoserone secretion - also block the degradation of bradykinin (causes cough and angioedema) Slow the progression down of CKD (gfr <60ml/min and or albuminuria) For HF-protect the myocardium from remodeling effects of Ang II and improve survival

Spironolactone (Aldactone) is a NON-selective receptor antagonist (also blocks androgen),
Eplerenone (Inspra) Is a selective aldosterone receptor antagonist that does NOT exhibit endocrine SE
Triamterene and amiloride are potassium sparing diuretics that exert their effects by directly blocking Na channels in the late distal convoluted tubule and collecting duct of the nephron Have minimal BP lowering effects but are primarily used in combo with thiazide diuretics to counteract the mild K losses seen with thiazide diuretics

Carvedilol and propranolol are inhibitors of Pgp and can increase serum cont. of p-gp substrates -
Centrally acting Alpha 2-adrenergic agonists Decrease BP by stimulating presynamptic alpha-2 adrenergic receptors in the brain, this decreases sympathetic outflow of NORepi-which leads to reduction in SVR (and BP) and HR.
