Identify a Beta2 short acting agonist used for asthma
Ventolin, Alupent, Terbutaline,
Identify the most common type of Na+ channel blocker
Lidocaine
Name the 5 classification of antihypertensives
1. Diuretics
2. Beta blockers
3. ACE Inhibitors
4. Ca++Channel blockers
5. Vasodilators
Name the three classifications of drugs to treat Thrombi
1. Antiplatelets
2. Anticoagulants
3. Fibrinolytics
The "good" cholesterol
HDL
When does rebound congestion occur after using an Alpha 1 agonist
>7 days
Identify the most common Ca++ Channel blocker
Verapamil
Diltiazem
Identify the three types of diuretics
1. Loop diuretics
2. K+ sparing diuretics
3. Thiazides
A fibrinolytic which is derived from streptococci bacterium.
Streptokinase
Which co-enzymes does antihyperlipids inhibit
HMG CoA
HMG CoA is needed by the liver to synthesize cholesterol
A muscarinic anatagonist which causes bronchodilation used for asthmatics
Ipratropium (Atrovent)
Identify the most common Beta blocker
Propranolol
How does a Beta Adrenergic Antagonists control hypertension?
1. Decreases contractility which decreases cardiac output.
2. Reduces tachycardia by inhibiting sympathetic system
3. Represses renin release from kidneys- inhibits vasoconstriction activated by renin-angiotension-aldosterone system
True or False
Aspirin breaks down a thrombi and curbs the formation of a new thrombi
False
ASA does not have an effect on a current thrombi
True or False
Elevated levels of HDL can be a causative factor in CAD
False
LDL
LDL contain most of the cholesterol in the blood and transport cholesterol from the liver to peripheral tissue
HDL carries cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver to be broken down.
What is the function of leukotriene antagonists
Block leukotrien receptors
Identify the most common K+ channel blocker
Amiodarone
How does a cardiac glycoside work?
They interfere with the Na+ K+ pump and increase Na+ in the cell which pulls in more Ca++.
The calcium increases the force of contraction and cardiac output
i.e. Digoxin
Identify the function of TXA2
Causes platelets to aggregate and promotes local vasoconstriction.
Two types of lipids
1. Cholesterol
2. Triglycerides
The purpose of a mucolytic drug
Make mucus more watery and easier to cough up.
