Key points
- Hypertension treatment usually follows a staged approach, adding classes such as ACE inhibitors, calcium channel blockers or diuretics as blood pressure targets are reassessed.
- Heart failure medicines in this range span ACE inhibitors or ARBs, beta blockers, mineralocorticoid antagonists such as spironolactone, and newer options such as empagliflozin.
- Angina is managed differently again, through nitrate medicines such as isosorbide mononitrate, alongside beta blockers or calcium channel blockers that ease the heart’s workload.
- Blood pressure and heart failure checks follow different monitoring frameworks, even though the same medicine, such as an ACE inhibitor, often treats both conditions.
ACE inhibitors, ARBs, alpha blockers and diuretics
This range groups medicines by the cardiovascular problem they treat rather than by a single class label, since many act on more than one. ACE inhibitors such as Coversyl and ARBs such as Cozaar relax blood vessels to lower blood pressure, while alpha blockers such as prazosin work through a different receptor route. Calcium channel blockers such as Amlodipine act on the vessel wall itself, and diuretics such as Hydrochlorothiazide reduce fluid volume, often paired with an ARB such as Olmesartan Medoxomil in a single tablet.
Heart failure, angina and rhythm medicines
Entresto brings a newer option to heart failure care, pairing sacubitril with valsartan in a single tablet. Lasix and similar diuretics ease the fluid retention behind oedema, a problem heart failure can cause. Ranolazine, trimetazidine and ivabradine round out the angina medicines, working through different mechanisms from the nitrates and beta blockers. Cordarone, Lanoxin and diltiazem-based products treat heart rhythm disorders rather than blood pressure itself, and Endobloc T Kit and Letairis are listed here for pulmonary arterial hypertension, a distinct condition from everyday high blood pressure. Gutron is attached through orthostatic hypotension, a drop in pressure on standing.
