breathing
corticosteriods
methylprednisone, budesonide: used to reduce inflammation and suppress overactive immune system.
treats: Asthma +COPD, inflammatory and autoimmue conditions (crohns, ulcerative colitis etc.) etc.
side effects: thrush (for inhaled)
digoxin
Heart failure: Improves the strength and efficiency of heart muscle contractions (positive inotropic effect), increasing cardiac output and reducing swelling in the hands and ankles. Atrial fibrillation and flutter: Slows down and controls rapid ventricular response rates by increasing the refractory period of the AV node
\toxicity: hypokalemia, hypothyroidism/hyperthyroidism, MIm renal insufficency, hypoxemia, acidosis
calicum channel blockers: NON-dihydropyrindines
decrese HR, contractility ad AV conduction
diltazem, verapamil
Short acting anticolinergic and LABA
ipratropium bromide:used to relax airway muscles, open broncial tubes and control resp or nasal symptoms
used for: COPD, Asthma
side effects: dry as the desert
LABA: tiotropium
angiotensin receptor-nephrilysin inhibitors (ARNI)
vasodilation and decreased fluid retention
ramipril, lisinopril
se: dry cought, hyperkalemia, hypotension, increase creatnine, angioedema
selective long acting phosphodiesterase-4
roflumilast: reduces inflammation. doesnt stop attacs but can decrease attacks reserved for severe COPD
betablocker
lower, bp and slow heartrate
ARBs
vaso dilation and decreased aldosterone
losartan, valsartan
less likley to cause cough then ACE
long acting beta-2 adrenergic receptor
salmeterol: relaxes muslces around airways in lungs to open breathing passagway
uses: athma, copd, excersized induced bronchospasm (NOT A RESUCE INHALER)
side effects: headache dizziness, cramping
mineralcorticoid receptor antagonist
block aldosterone to reuce salt and water retention, lower bp and protect heart and kindeys
increase sodium and water excretion
hydrochlorthiazide
short acting bronchodilator
ventolin: relaxes muscles in the airways to improve airflow. resuce inhaler.
side effects: shaky anxious feelings
family: salbuterol, albuterol
SGLT2i
remove extra salt and sugar through your urine
