HTN: drug therapy
Give this one a try later!
First Line
1. thiazides (hydrochlorothiazide)
2. ACE inhibitors (-pril, lisonopril): dry cough is common, if cant tolerate use
ARBS)
3. ARBS (-sartan, losartan)
4. CCB (-dipine, amlodipine)
African Americans (w/o HT or CKD)
-thiazide
-CCB
PAD (ss/sx)

, 1. intermittent claudication: pain/aching/cramping of calf muscle when
walking/activity, relieves w/ rest due to less blood demands
2. ischemic rest pain: pain while asleep, wake up due to severe pain from
bad circulation due to position change
3. other signs: lower leg hair loss, thinner skin, parasthesia, pain at rest
(severe), absent or diminished popliteal, pedal, or femoral pulses, pallor of
foot when elevated
4. complications: critical limb ischemia: severe bad circulation, pain at rest
over 2 weeks--> wounds, gangrene, necrotic, have to bypass or remove
limb!
categories
Give this one a try later!
primary/essential HTN: no cause, (90-95%)
secondary HTN: genetics, obesity
HF complications (both sides)
Give this one a try later!
-pleural effusion (tx w/ diuretics or thorocentesis)
-LV thrombus (pooling)
-dysrhythmias
-renal failure (poor perfusion)
IE (risks)
