captopril (Capoten) enalapril (Vasotec) fosinopril (Monopril) lisinopril (Prinivil) | ACE inhibitors |
losartan (Cozaar) valsartan (Diovan) irbesartan (Avapro) | ARBS |
ACE inhibitors: monitor for | non-productive cough, hypotension, monitor potassium level |
nifedipine (Adalat, Procardia) verapamil (Calan) diltiazem (Cardizem) amlodipine (Norcasc) | Calcium Channel Blockers |
ACE inhibitors | block the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II in the lungs |
ARBs | selectively block the binding of angiotensin II to AT1 receptors found in tissues |
Calcium Channel Blockers | slows movement of calcium into smooth muscle cells, resulting in arterial dilation and decreased blood pressure |
Calcium channel blockers: contraindications | contraindicated for clients with heart failure, heart block, or bradycardia; do not consume grapefruit juice |
prazosin (Minipress) doxazosin mesylate (Cardura) | Alpha Blockers |
Alpha Blockers: monitor for | dizziness, fainting, take at bedtime, no OTC drugs |
clonidine (Catapres) guanfacine HCL (Tenex) methyldopa (Aldomet) | Centrally Acting Alpha-2 Agonists SE - black/sore tongue, leukopenia Interventions - notify physician of an involuntary jerky movements, prolonged dizziness, rash, yellowing of skin |
metoprolol (Lopressor) atenolol (Tenormin) | Selective Beta-blockers |
propranolol (Inderal) nadolol (Corgard) labetalol (Normodyne) | Non-selective Beta-blockers (DO NOT administer to pts with asthma, bronchospasm or heart failure) |
nitroglycerin (Nitrostat IV) nicardipine (Cardene) clevidipine (Cleviprex) enalaprilat (Vasotec IV) | Vasodilators |
Side effects of Vasodilators | profound hypotension, cyanide toxicity, headache, dizziness |
digoxin (Lanoxin, Lanoxicaps, Digitek): Precautions | thiazide or loop diuretics increase risk of hypokalemia and precipitate dig toxicity |
Digoxin toxicity S/S | GI effects - anorexia, N/V, abdominal pain CNS effects - fatigue, weakness, diplopia, blurred vision, yellow-green or white halos |
