NURS180 - QUIZ 5 EXAM QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS 100% PASS 2026
EDITION
What are angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors? - "PRIL"
(captopril, enalapril, lisinopril, ramipril) - ANS captopril
enalapril
lisinopril
ramipril
what is the pharmacological action of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors? -
ANS reduce the production of angiotensin II by blocking the conversion of angiotensin I to
angiotensin II
vasodilation
excretion of Na+ and water
what happens if we block angiotensin-converting enzyme with ACE inhibitors? - ANS we will
decrease the formation of angiotensin II
what is the MOA of ACE inhibitors? - ANS inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) from
forming angiotensin II

, what are therapeutic uses of ACE inhibitors? - ANS lowers the preload and afterload
ACE's do not directly lower the HR
ACE inhibitors are safe to take for HR below 60
what are complications of ACE inhibitors? - ANS cough ("pril cough")
hyperkalemia (electrolyte imbalances)
angioedema (hereditary angioedema, also known as HAE)
what is ACE inhibitor-induced angioedema? - ANS bradykinin-mediated angioedema
does not involve histamine
what is angioedema unresponsive to? - ANS UNRESPONSIVE to epinephrine, antihistamines,
and steroids
what are interactions of ACE inhibitors? - ANS first-dose hypotension
potassium supplements and potassium-sparing diuretics
avoid potassium rich foods
how are you going to treat angioedema in a patient who has a known hx of hereditary
angioedema (HAE)? - ANS purified plasma-derived human C1 esterase inhibitor concentrate
