The Effect of Local Vasodilating Agents

1977
Contrary to the previously widely held concept that nitroglycerin is contraindicated in acute myocardial infarction, it has recently been shown that the administration of nitroglycerin to patients with acute myocardial infarction and elevated left ventricular filling pressures results in a reduction in filling pressure and in an increase in cardiac ...

Vasodilators (Other Agents and Drug Classes)

2000
In addition to the angiotensin II receptor blockers, the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors, and the calcium channel blockers, which are discussed in other chapters, there are other peripheral vasodilators that include a wide variety of compounds with highly disparate mechanisms of action.

Chapter 8. Vasodilator and Vasoconstrictor Agents

Publisher Summary This chapter presents an overview of vasodilator and vasoconstrictor agents. Many drugs with diverse pharmacological actions ultimately alter vascular tone. Antihypertensive agents as well as drugs used to treat peripheral vascular diseases are among those that reduce vascular tone.

Vasodilator agents protect against indinavir nephrotoxicity.

Antiviral therapy, 2004
Indinavir (IDV) is a protease inhibitor widely used in AIDS treatment. A sustained elevation of creatinine was identified in IDV-treated patients. We have previously demonstrated that IDV causes renal vasoconstriction in rats. The objective of this study was to investigate the mechanism of IDV-induced vasoconstriction and the effect that the ...

Mechanism of Action of Vasodilating Agents

1988
The development of heart failure is accompanied by the activation of neuroendocrine compensatory mechanisms (see chapter “Endocrine response to heart failure”). Although these responses are initially aimed at preserving cardiovascular homeostasis, they eventually lead to a further deterioration of myocardial performance due to excessive ...

[Vasodilator agents and the vascular endothelium].

Annales de cardiologie et d'angeiologie, 1990
The recent discovery of endothelium-derived relaxation factor (EDRF) has altered the traditional classification of vasodilators used in angina pectoris and heart failure. If a vasodilator induces release of EDRF from the epithelium it is classified as endothelium-dependent, if not it is independent.
