| simvastatin A.E | muscle pain |
| reserpine contraindication | severe depression |
| captopril action/A.E/instructions | stops angiotensin 2 production, increases BP. stores Na+ and H20, excretes K+, dry cough, hypotension, angioedema, hyperkalemia, neutropenia, monitor K+ levels, ,BP, and WBC |
| doxazosin admin/A.E/instructions | give at bedtime(Docks you out), ortho hypotension, reflex tachy, monitor BP, rise slowly, avoid driving |
| nifedipine action/A.E/instructions | "Pine" treats HTN & angina, hypotension, brady, P. edema, dizzy/ lightheaded, constipation, hold drug is BP <90, monitor A.E,NO GRAPEFRUIT |
| atenolol and metoprolol/ action/A.E/instructions | "Olol" treats HTN, angina, decreases BP and HR, brady, HF, rebound excitation ,monitor HR, DON'T take if pt has COPD/Asthma |
| reserpine contraindications/A.E/instructions | severe depression, can cause depression and R.F suicide, monitor pt |

| furosemide action/A.E/instructions | most powerful, treats Pul. edema, HTN, hyperkalemia, electrolyte imbalances, hypotension, ototoxicity, hyperglycemia, monitor for digoxin toxicity, NSAIDs decrease effect |
| gemfibrozil action/admin/A.E/interactions | reduces LDL, give 30 min before meals, liver toxicity-monitor levels, warfarin increases R.F bleeding |
| nitroglycerin action/admin/A.E/instructions | treat/prevent angina(causes severe headache), take off at night(patch) sublingual (up to 3,5 min apart, store in dark container up to 24 months, causes ortho hypotension, tachy, wear gloves, monitor BP and HR. DON'T take with slidenafil(ED med) |
