Antihypertensive drug pharmacology made easy for treating high blood pressure (hypertension). Learn the classifications, example medications, agents, tricks, and mechanism of action. Great for nursing, medical, and USMLE!

An antihypertensive drug chart is used to walk through ACE inhibitors, ARBs (angiotensin II receptor blockers), alpha blockers (antagonists), beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, and diuretics.

Use the tricks in the video to remember the main antihypertensive drug classes and medication names.
