SPIRONOLACTONE Spironolactone – Oral (Common Brand Name
SPIRONOLACTONE Spironolactone – oral (common brand name: Aldactone) Uses: Spironolactone is used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. It is also used to treat swelling (edema) caused by certain conditions (e.g., congestive heart failure) by removing excess fluid and improving symptoms such as breathing problems. This medication is also used to treat low potassium levels and conditions in which the body is making too much of a natural chemical (aldosterone). Spironolactone is known as a “water pill” (potassium-sparing diuretic). Other uses: This medication has also been used to treat acne in women, female pattern hair loss, and excessive hair growth (hirsutism), especially in women with polycystic ovary disease. Side effects: Drowsiness, lightheadedness, stomach upset, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, or headache may occur. To minimize lightheadedness, get up slowly when rising from a seated or lying position. If any of these effects persist or worsen, notify your doctor promptly. Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur; dizziness, increased thirst, change in the amount of urine, mental/mood chances, unusual fatigue/weakness, muscle spasms, menstrual period changes, sexual function problems. This medication may lead to high levels of potassium, especially in patients with kidney problems. If not treated, very high potassium levels can be fatal. Tell your doctor immediately if you notice any of the following unlikely but serious side effects: slow/irregular heartbeat, muscle weakness. Precautions: Before taking spironolactone, tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are allergic to it; or if you have any other allergies. -

The Pharmacology of Amiodarone and Digoxin As Antiarrhythmic Agents
Part I Anaesthesia Refresher Course – 2017 University of Cape Town The Pharmacology of Amiodarone and Digoxin as Antiarrhythmic Agents Dr Adri Vorster UCT Department of Anaesthesia & Perioperative Medicine The heart contains pacemaker, conduction and contractile tissue. Cardiac arrhythmias are caused by either enhancement or depression of cardiac action potential generation by pacemaker cells, or by abnormal conduction of the action potential. The pharmacological treatment of arrhythmias aims to achieve restoration of a normal rhythm and rate. The resting membrane potential of myocytes is around -90 mV, with the inside of the membrane more negative than the outside. The main extracellular ions are Na+ and Cl−, with K+ the main intracellular ion. The cardiac action potential involves a change in voltage across the cell membrane of myocytes, caused by movement of charged ions across the membrane. This voltage change is triggered by pacemaker cells. The action potential is divided into 5 phases (figure 1). Phase 0: Rapid depolarisation Duration < 2ms Threshold potential must be reached (-70 mV) for propagation to occur Rapid positive charge achieved as a result of increased Na+ conductance through voltage-gated Na+ channels in the cell membrane Phase 1: Partial repolarisation Closure of Na+ channels K+ channels open and close, resulting in brief outflow of K+ and a more negative membrane potential Phase 2: Plateau Duration up to 150 ms Absolute refractory period – prevents further depolarisation and myocardial tetany Result of Ca++ influx -
