Types of medications you will receive may include: Vasodilators - help blood flow more easily by relaxing the blood vessels and lowering blood pressure. This category includes drugs known as ACE Inhibitors or ARBs. Digitalis - helps strengthen your heartbeat Diuretics - help to rid your body of excess water that may collect in your hands, feet and lungs. Less fluid to pump eases the workload of the heart. Beta Blockers help lower blood pressure and slow the heart rate. Antihypertensives help lower blood pressure. Antiarrhythmics help control a rapid or irregular heart rate. Anticoagulants - help prevent blood clots which can cause a heart attack or stroke. Potassium supplements may be given to replace what you lose with the diuretics.     1200572 06/17/2003 K N +]`qA]^6EP^Ⱦ jhL9%CJOJQJ jhL9%CJOJQJ jnhL9%CJOJQJhL9%CJOJQJ jnhL9%5CJOJQJhL9%5CJOJQJhL9%hL9%5OJQJhL9%CJOJQJhL9%OJQJ; wx       rkd$$IflF (#`'  80    4 la$If$a$ &      $ n \kd$$IflF (#`'  80    4 la & F$If & F$If $$Ifa$$If  !
