Ace Inhibitor/Lisinopril PI
Across
- 4. Dry,persistent;classic Ace inhibitors side effect.
- 7. Can occur with volume depletion or high diuretic dose.
- 8. Low sodium increases risk of hypotension; start low and go slow.
- 12. Peptide increased by ACE blockade, contributes to cough and angioedema.
- 14. Dysgeusia reported with Ace Inhibitors.
- 15. Common adult starting dose.
- 17. Typical dosing of Lisinopril frequency.
Down
- 1. Bilateral disease increases risk of acute kidney injury with Ace Inhibitors
- 2. Hormone decreased promoting natriuresis and lowering potassium secretion.
- 3. Drug class that blocks conversion of Angiotensin I to Angiotensin II.
- 5. Site where pressure falls with Ace inhibitors protecting kidneys.
- 6. Contraindicated due to fetal toxity
- 9. Supplements or salt substitutes can increase risk of Hyperkalemia.
- 10. Indicated to reduce morbidity/mortality;improves symptoms via afterload reduction.
- 11. Substrate converted to Angiotensin II;accumulates when Ace is inhibited.
- 13. Enzyme released by juxtaglomerular; initiates RAS upstream of Ace.
- 16. Class risk from reduced Aldosterone;caution with potassium supplements.
