Drugs, used for treatment of chronic heart failure are
Cardiac glycosides
ACE-inhibitors
Calcium channel blockers
Diuretics
Diuretics, used in chronic liver failure are
osmotic diuretics
thiazide diuretics
loop diuretics
aldosterone antagonists
The therapy of cardiac failure should starts
As earlier as having diagnose
ACE inhibitors are recommended as first line drugs
The very low doses are preferred
Start with high doses
The most often ADRs of β-blockers are
Tiredness
Bradycardia
AV block
Hypertension
Diuretics are combined with which of the drugs for treatment of cardiac failure
ACE inhibitors
β-blockers
Organic nitrates
Indications for using cardiac glycosides in the therapy of congestive heart failure are
early stage of chronic cardiac failure
heavy CCF
supra-ventricular fibrillations
decrease the mortality rate
Characteristic feature of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) are
good tolerability
better compliance
complex hemodynamic improving effect
less tolerated and low compliance in comparison with ACE inhibitors
Which of the following drugs are used for treatment of Prinzmetal angina
propranolol
diltiazem
verapamil
furosemide
Antianginal drugs are:
Which of the following are preferred for treatment of stable angina
calcium channel blockers
organic nitrates
diuretics
The adverse drug reactions of nitrates used for acute attacks are
tachycardia
tolerance
hypertension
headache and flushing
The anti-angina effect of β-blockers is due to
bradycardic effect
coronary vessels dilation
reduced oxygen demand of the heart
inhibition of platelet aggregation
The adverse drug reactions of dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonists are
bradycardia
swelling of ankles
flushing and headache
Withdrawal syndrome is observed in treatment with
Metabolotropic drugs
The adverse drug reactions of non-dihyropyridine calcium channel antagonists are
constipation
heart failure
Anti-angina effects of organic nitrates is done by
decreased preload of the heart
improved oxygen supply
reduced afterload of the heart
dilation of coronary vessels
Supplementary drugs are
Trimetazidine
Verapamil
Isodinite
Ivabradine
Antihypertensive drugs are
Angiotensin receptor blockers
Mechanisms of antihypertensive drugs are
decrease of blood volume
decreased sensitivity of vessels to vasoconstrictors
reduced activity of renin-angiotensin system
decreased peripheral vascular tone
Adverse drug reactions of salt losing diuretics are
hyperglycemia
hyperuricemia
hypopotassiemia
hyperpotassiamia
Drugs preferred for treatment of hypertensive crisis are
Furosemide
Clonidine
Nitroprusside
Pindolol
Drugs decreasing myocardial hypertrophy are
Angiotensin receptors blockers
α-blockers
Rational drug combinations for treatment of hypertension are
β-blocker + α-blocker
β-blocker + diuretic
α-blocker + ACE inhibitor
Calcium channel antagonists + diuretic
Adverse drug reactions of ACE inhibitors are
angioedema
dry cough
hyperlipidemia
Adverse drug reactions of α-blockers are
flush syndrome
dry mouth
orthostatic hypotension
Antihypertensive drugs with direct vasodilating effects are
Diazoxide
Propranolol
Methyldopa
α2 -agonists
α2-blockers
M-cholinolytics
Antihistamine drugs
