*beta blocker used to treat mild to severe CHF, left
ventricular dysfunction following MI, HTN.
*works by causing vasodilation to the peripheral
vasculature to decrease the workload on the heart.
*Non selective beta blocker and Alpha-1 blocker
Coreg (Carvedilol) *3rd generation beta blocker
*particularly useful in African Americans
*Dose: 0.625 mg-25mg PO BID with food
*administering with food helps prevent postural
hypotension
*Education: don't skip doses, take with food
1. A-allergic
hypersensitivty reactions: 2.C-cytotoxic
mnemonic ACID 3.I- Immune complex deposition
4. D-delayed
A-allergic
*IgE mediated- quick onset after exposure
Type I hypersensitivity
*production of IgE after antigen exposure.
*urticaria, wheezing, rhinitis, anaphylaxis
C-cytotoxic
*cytotoxic/antibody mediated
* drug binds to RBCs and is recognized by antibody-
Type II hypersensitivity
usually IgG
*complement and cytotoxic T cells are activated
*Rare response
I-immune complex/IgG/IgM mediated
*antibodies are formed against soluble antigens.
Type III hypersensitivity ANtigen-antibody complexes are deposited in tissues
such as joints and lungs.
*cause serum sickness. Ex: ceclor (antibiotic)
