Anti-Arrhythmic Drugs | Lidocane, Quinoidine |
Anti-Arrhythmic Drugs | Dilantin, Norpace |
Anti-Arrhythmic Drugs | Control/Prevent Cardiac Arrhythmia that can be fatal |
Anti-Cholenergic Drugs | Atropine |
Anti-Cholenergic Drugs | Used with IV for heart block or Bradycardia |
Anti-Cholenergic Drugs | Inhibit acetylcholine at parasympathetic nerves blocking vagal effects on SA and AV nodes |
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 | Propranolol (inderal) and others ending with 'olol' |
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 | Nitroglyerin |
Nitrates | Primarily dilate blood vessels by reducing oxygen demand of the heart=reduce blood pressure and preload |
