why does amiodarone cause epithelial keratopathy and photosensitivity? Amiodarone (Amiodarone) causes epithelial keratopathy because it deposits in corneal epithelial cells (lipid-rich drug accumulation), forming microdeposits. It causes photosensitivity because the drug absorbs UV light and generates reactive oxygen species, leading to skin damage.

how do the nitroglycerin side effect happen? Do not use with PDE-5 inhibitors (e.g., sildenafil): both increase cGMP, causing massive vasodilation → severe hypotension. Tachyphylaxis: continuous exposure depletes sulfhydryl groups needed to generate nitric oxide, so the drug effect rapidly decreases. Can worsen angina in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: it reduces preload, which worsens left ventricular outflow obstruction, decreasing cardiac output and coronary perfusion.
what is tachyphyaxis Tachyphylaxis is a rapid decrease in a drug’s effect after repeated or continuous use, even if the same dose is given.
