AB Heart  failure  results  when  cardiac  output  is  inadequate  for  the  needs  of  the  body.  A  defect  in  cardiac  contractility  is  complicated  by  multiple  compensatory  processes  that  further  weaken  the  failing  heart.  The  drugs  used  in  heart  failure  fall  into  3  major  groups  with  varying  targets  and  actions.
