6:36 EPLERENONE per Wikipedia: specifically marketed for reducing cardiovascular risk in patients following myocardial infarction. Eplerenone is a potassium-sparing diuretic, meaning that it helps the body get rid of water but still keep potassium. (So similar to spironolactone; K+ sparing diuretic; aldosterone blocker)
Not sure if you've noticed Cathy but the title of this video doesn't match the description or content taught.. probably an oversight but didn't want anyone else getting confused. Thank you SO very much for getting me through pharm and helping me refresh for NCLEX!!!
For the Aldosterone Antagonist, you said it essentially inhibits the effects of aldosterone which result in reabsorption of sodium and water but wouldn't inhibiting aldosterone cause the excretion of sodium and water? Let me know if I'm misunderstanding!
No, your understanding is correct! To inhibit the release of aldosterone is to inhibit sodium and water reabsorption and thus promoting water and sodium excretion. She made an honest mistake!
maybe i missed it, but im suprised we didnt talk about patient teaching with Ace inhibitors and how patients abruptly stop due to cough? maybe i have this wrong ..
Great job for us student . Please I am following your videos but cardiovascular hypertension you mentioned vasodilation, I can’t find it . Can you please made your videos follow up and finish a system instead of jumping from cardio to respiratory? Thank you it been helpful for us in nursing school . I shared to all my friends
Aliskiren AKA Tekturna! Never paid attention to the generic name, as a pharmacy tech I have only seen Tekturna given to patients. I know in the hospital, since it is a different environment, they might have it available in generic. Thank you for this.
Do the white board method everyday a week before ur exam. Use the first week to study and memorize as much as u can. Then use the last week to do the white board method
She’s the best!! Your videos have been so helpful!
Glad you like them!
I try to remember ACE inhibitors by thinking "if you ACE a test you must be PRILy (really) smart"
That is really cute!! I like it!!
That is so smart!!!!!
Clever
I passed my NCLEX-RN today and I couldn’t thank you enough for the resources you have on this platform! You’re the best!
Congratulations!! So happy we could be part of your journey to becoming a nurse. ❤️
I was having a hard time in pharmacology til I found your videos thankyouuuusomuch. this helps me a lot
You are so welcome!😊
What also helped me remember Ace was saying they would be thrils but there is a risk for elevated Potassium so they are P-rils

Thank for telling us! It should be all fixed now. 👍

I was just about to leave the same comment, I looked it up and it looks like she misspoke...

You deserve my whole tuition check. You also remind me of Tina Fey a little bit!
I took Telmisartan (angiotensin II receptor blocker) for my hypertension.
Like others have said, she misspoke at 6:55. Aldosterone Inhibitors INHIBIT ALDOSTERONE.
