Spironolactone is given to patients with chronic heart failure |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
because
1. It reduces the heart rate
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\
, 2. It increases myocardial contractility
|\ |\ |\ |\
3. It antagonizes the effects of aldosterone
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
4. It lowers serum potassium
|\ |\ |\ |\
3. It antagonizes the effects of aldosterone
|\ |\ |\ |\ |\ |\
