What six medications can be given for patients with aortic
aneurysms? - ANSWER-1. Captopril (ACE inhibitor).
2. Amlodipine (Calcium channel blocker).
3. Enalapril (ACE inhibitor).
4. Propranolol (Beta-blocker).
5. Zosin (Prazosin, doxazosin, and terazosin). These are
antiadrenergic medications.
6. Losartan (angiotensin receptor blocker).
What is captopril? What are some patient teaching points?
- ANSWER-ACE inhibitor used to control HTN.
MOA: blocks production of angiotensin II decreasing
vasoconstriction. This decreases BP.
Pt Teaching
- watch for ANGIOEDEMA.
- contraindicated in pregnancy.

- take a low dose at bedtime.
- serum potassium levels may need to be assessed. This
medication may cause hyperkalemia.
- eat low potassium foods.
S/E
- may cause a cough.
- ANGIOEDEMA.
What life-threatening condition can Captopril cause? -
ANSWER-Angioedema.
What is amlodipine? What are some patient teaching
points? - ANSWER-Calcium Channel blocker!
MOA: inhibits influx of calcium across cardiac and smooth
muscles during depolarization. this results in relaxation
and vasodilation. This lowers BP!
Pt Teaching
- take without regard to food.
-NO GRAPEFRUIT JUICE.

- NO ST. JOHNS WORT (herbal supplement).
What is Enalapril? What are some patient teaching points?
- ANSWER-ACE inhibitor!
MOA: same as captopril. (Lowers BP).
Pt teaching
- move slowly when Changin positions (sitting to standing)
due to orthostatic HoTN.
- regularly check BP.
- avoid high K foods, hyperkalemia is a risk.
What is Propranolol? What are some patient teaching
points? - ANSWER-Beta-Adrenergic Blocker.
MOA: lowers BP.
Pt teaching
- do NOT stop taking abruptly.
- must be gradually tapered over TWO weeks with pt
monitoring.

pregnant woman who is taking Losartan? - ANSWER-
STOP!
Losartan can cause severe injury and death to the fetus.
What is Sotalol? What are the major contraindications for
this medication? - ANSWER-Beta-adrenergic blocker.
Primary contraindication: ASTHMA.
Other contraindications:
- sinus bradycardia.
- heart block.
- prolonged QT syndrome.
- cardiogenic shock.
- heart failure.
