The increased demand is me by increasing coronary blood flow • DECREASE OXYGEN DEMAND Three major determinants of the myocardial oxygen uptake are heart rate, blood pressure, and the contractile status of the myocardium Angina and Calcium Antagonists Calcium Antagonists • Reduce blood pressure because of peripheral vasodilation • Reduce heart rate, especially diltiazem and verapamil • Decrease contractility thereby reducing the oxygen demand Hypertension and Calcium Antagonists • Mechanism of action is VASODILATION • Nifedipine is used commonly because is 10 times more selective to vascular smooth muscle cells than to myocardial cells • Often used in patients with contraindications to betaantagonists Arrhythmia and Calcium Antagonists Arrhythmia results from • Abnormal pacemaker activity • Abnormal impulse propagation Aim of therapy • To reduce ectopic pacemaker activity • To modify impulse propagation Arrhythmia and Calcium Antagonists Supraventricular dysrhythmia(diltiazem, verapamil) • Mechanism of action is selectivity for pacemaker and nodal cells. Blocks Ca2+-dependent conduction in AV node, thereby reducing atrioventricular conduction • Restores synapse rhythm in 75% cases Other Uses • Migraine • Prevent development of atheromatous lesions • Pulmonary artery hypertension Side Effects Diltiazem • Edema • Headache • Depresses sinoatrial nodal function because of high degree atrioventricular nodal block Nifedipine • Dizziness is the result of acute vasodilation and rapid blood pressure fall • Headaches is the result of vasodilation • Ankle edema is caused by precapillary vasodilation Verapamil • May increase digoxin level when used in combination • Absolutely contraindicated in digoxin toxicity because will cause high grade AV block • High rate of constipation up to 30%, presumably due to a specific interaction of verapamil with calcium channels in smooth muscle cells of the gut • Depresses sinoatrial nodal function, may cause high degree atrioventricular nodal block Contraindications • Patients with low baseline blood pressure -may develop hypotension • Patients with decreased left ventricular systolic function - may worsen the heart failure •Arrythmias with antegrade conduction down a bypass tract, such as syndrome Wolff-Parkinson-White DRUG INTERACTION DRUG AFFECTED MECHANISM PHAR MACOKINETIC POTENTIAL EFFECTCT CLINICAL EFFECT Digoxin Decreased clearance Decreased clearance Incr eased serum digoxin con centration Incr eased serum carbmazepin e conc entration Incr eased expo sure to active drug Incr eased expo sure to active drug Incr eased expo sure to active drug Incr eased expo sure to active drug Carbmazepine Antihistami nes HMG-CoA reduc tase inhibit ors Immuno suppressive drugs Beta-blockers Decreased clearance Decreased clearance Decreased clearance Decreased clearance Digoxin toxicit y Neurotoxicit y (dizzines s, head ache, a taxia) Ventricular arrhy thmi a Myop athy Nephrotoxicit y Bradyc ardia, asystole
