Drug Therapy & Treatments for Cardiovascular and Hematologic Disorders
Cardiovascular Disorders
- Hypertension
- ACE Inhibitors (e.g., Lisinopril): Reduce blood pressure by inhibiting the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.
- Beta-Blockers (e.g., Metoprolol): Decrease heart rate and cardiac output.
- Calcium Channel Blockers (e.g., Amlodipine): Relax blood vessels by blocking calcium entry into cells.
- Diuretics (e.g., Hydrochlorothiazide): Increase urine output to reduce blood volume.
- Heart Failure
- ACE Inhibitors and ARBs (e.g., Losartan): Lower blood pressure and reduce heart workload.
- Beta-Blockers (e.g., Carvedilol): Improve heart function and survival rates.
- Diuretics (e.g., Furosemide): Reduce fluid overload.
- Aldosterone Antagonists (e.g., Spironolactone): Decrease mortality and hospitalization rates.
- Digitalis (e.g., Digoxin): Improve cardiac contractility.
- Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
- Antiplatelet Agents (e.g., Aspirin, Clopidogrel): Prevent clot formation…
