-HF (first line tx)
-Mi
-Nephropathy
Side effects of ACE inhibitors:
-Cough
,-Angioedema
-Hyperkalemia
-First dose hypotension
BLACK BOX WARNING for ACE Inhibitors:
Teratogenic (can cause fetal toxicity)
Considerations for ACE Inhibitors:
Less effective in the black population
)
Action of Acetaminophen:
-Decreases prostaglandins in CNS (not in the PNS)
-Antipyretic and analgesic properties (does not help with inflammation
Use for Acetaminophen:

,-Steven Johnson Syndrome
Acetaminophen interacts with:
Warfarin and alcohol
Antidote for acetaminophen:
Acetylcysteine/Mucomyst
Action of Albuterol:
Stimulation of beta 2 receptors -> bronchodilation, decrease histamine and
increase ciliary motility
Use for Albuterol:
