FEBRUARY 10,2110 MEDPHARM DRUGS FOR ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE
VIGNETTE A 47 yr old man reports a 6 month Hx of chest pressure while playing handball.He describes substernal tightness and left arm numbness only while exerting.The total cholesterol and LDL are elevated. The exercise test is positive.How should the patient’s case be managed?

Symptoms of Angina Abrams J. N Engl J Med 2005;352:2524-2533
Classification and Severity of Angina Abrams J. N Engl J Med 2005;352:2524-2533
Lalplace Equation • Wall stress = Pr/w where: P = pressure r = radius w = wall thickness
EFFECTS OF NITROGLYCERIN Marked venodilation with sublingual use Decreased ventricular preload Decreased ventricular size Decreased end-diastolic pressure NET EFFECT:Decreased oxygen demand Slight arteriolar dilation with higher doses
Regulation of the Relaxation of Vascular Smooth Muscle by Nitric Oxide NITROGLYCERIN Griffiths, M. J.D. et al. N Engl J Med 2005;353:2683-2695
NITROGLYCERIN USES: Angina pectoris-prophylaxis and treatment Heart failure SIDE EFFECTS: Tolerance Headache Syncope Interaction with sildenafil(Viagra &others)
NITROGLYCERIN Direct relaxation of all vascular smooth muscle Venous relaxation with oral or topical use Arteriolar and venous relaxation with IV use
ISOSORBIDE DINITRATE ACTION Venous relaxation – Long acting USES Oral Angina pectoris – prophylaxis Heart failure-when ACE inhibitors/ARBs contraindicated ADR Headache, Nitrate tolerance Interaction wiih sildenafil

BETA- ADRENERGIC BLOCKERS Equally Effective for: Hypertension Angina Arrhythmias
BETA BLOCKERS METOPROLOL PROPRANOLOL
BETA-BLOCKERS for ANGINA • Limit heart rate • Decrease myocardial contractility • Decrease oxygen demand
BETA BOCKERS – ADVERSE EFFECTS CNS Cardiovascular Bad dreams Aggravation of severe CHF Depression Aggravation of occlusive arterial disease Slow A-V conduction Pulmonary Bronchospasm in Asthmatics Drug interactions With drugs that impair A-V conduction (digoxin and some calcium channel blockers)
CALCIUM CHANNEL ANTAGONISTS FOR ANGINA PECTORIS Verapamil Others Diltiazem Nifedipine
CALCIUM CHANNEL ANTAGONISTSMECHANISM OF ACTION IN ANGINA PECTORIS Decreased in myocardial oxygen demand Decrease in afterload Decrease in cardiac contractility ( V & D)* Increase in myocardial oxygen supply Increase in coronary blood flow * Verapamil & Diltiazem
CALCIUM CHANNEL ANTAGONISTSADVERSE EFFECTS Hypotension Heart failure Headache AV Block Constipation Peripheral edema
ANTIANGINAL DRUGSCOMPARATIVE PHARMACOLOGIC EFFECTS Nitrates Calcium Beta Channel Blockers Blockers Increase in O2 o + o Supply Decrease in O2 + + + Demand
ANTIANGINAL DRUGSCOMPARATIVE ADVERSE EFFECTS Nitrates Calcium Beta Channel Blockers Blockers AV Block + + LV Dysfunction + -/+ Bronchoconstriction +
