    Today's video is all about ACE Inhibitors vs. ARBS.
    The NCLEX focuses on key differences between ACE inhibitors vs. ARBs, including their mechanism of action or mode of action, as well as the main side effects to watch for when giving these antihypertensive drugs. Since ACE's and ARB's prevent the action angiotensin 2 and aldosterone hormone, this results in a retention of potassium leading to hyperkalemia. For this reason, Ace inhibitors and Angiotensin receptor blockers are considered potassium-sparing medications.

    I'm only using Nifedipine. It's a Calcium channel blocker for the arteries not the heart. It lowers my bloodpressure.

    Could someone please explain why ACE inhibitors are first choice, especially when the side effects are more deadly to patients?

    • @wread1982
      @wread1982 Год назад +5

      All the doctors I watched said ARBs are the first choice

    • @ntyans82
      @ntyans82 10 месяцев назад +5

      Some insurance companies won't cover ARBs until you try the Ace inhibitors first. Also because the Ace inhibitors are more affordable.

    I'm on Lisinopril (ACE) have low BP and low HR also have some Raynaud's. Also, take Keppra and lamictal . Thinking of switching to ARB due to the combined effect of the three drugs. Whatcha think Doc?

    I was started on -pril. After doing some research I asked and was switched to -sartan. For me less side affects but see that perhaps my leg cramps at night (minor) may be from this. There was a study that indicated low dose of the two together could be synergistic. My doc says take at night before bed as the majority of heart events occur then. Need to figure out if I need to supplement with something. All my labs are in the window. Both had a diuretic effect. But I drink at least a gallon of water during the day - mostly morning.

    I understand that if a patient has angioedema, you would contact the HCP and stop the medication, but if a pt had signs and symptoms for a dry cough, is that life threatening/call HCP? or can you just tx with ARBs

    ACE and ARBs also prevent vasoconstriction right?

    • @stacyreyes8314
      @stacyreyes8314 3 года назад +3

      Yes they do. ACE stops angiotensin I from turning into Angiotensin II which prevents it from reaching receptors in the arteries to vasoconstrict, increasing vasodilation. ARBs prevent angiotensin II to bind with the specific angiotensin II receptors in the arteries to vasoconstrict which causes vasodilation.

    What is the full meaning of the ACE, was does each letter stand for? Does eating too much leafy vegetables green cause high potassium?

    • @syndieouellet2763
      @syndieouellet2763 Год назад +1

      They say ACE, but really, it's ACE inhibitor, Angiotensine converting enzyme inhibitor, which is a hormone that constrict blood vessels, amongst other things.

    If sodium is retained, and potassium is excreted how come hyperkalemia is a side effect??🤔🤔

    • @nece35
      @nece35 Год назад

      Suppose to be hypokalemia as a side effect

    • @howtobefullsavage3800
      @howtobefullsavage3800 Год назад +1

      I think it meant that potassium leaves the cell and enter the blood stream
