PY - 2013 T2 - Katzung & Trevor's Pharmacology: Examination & Board Review, 10e AB - Antihypertensive drugs are organized around a clinical indication—the need to treat a disease—rather than a receptor type. The drugs covered in this unit have a variety of mechanisms of action including diuresis, sympathoplegia, vasodilation, and antagonism of angiotensin, and many agents are available in most categories.
