- ACE inhibitors decrease systemic vascular resistance and afterload
- ACE inhibitors are indicated for congestive heart failure (CHF) and severe or refractory hypertension
- ACE inhibitors can cause hypotension, reflex tachycardia, and gastrointestinal upset
- Hydralazine is a potent arterial vasodilator
- Hydralazine directly acts on vascular smooth muscle to decrease contractility by modifying calcium metabolism
- Hydralazine decreases systemic vascular resistance and afterload
- Hydralazine is indicated for CHF and severe or refractory hypertension

Antiarrhythmics
- Class I antiarrhythmics, such as lidocaine, quinidine, procainamide, and mexiletine, share similar mechanisms of action
- Class I antiarrhythmics decrease sinus heart rate, increase the refractory period of the atrioventricular node, decrease myocardial oxygen demand, and decrease ventricular automaticity
- Procainamide is a potent arterial vasodilator, has a direct action on vascular smooth muscle to decrease contractility by modifying calcium metabolism, and decreases systemic vascular resistance and afterload
