Q

acetazolamide (Diamox)

A

Diuretic- Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitor
-leaves NaHCO3 in urine and decreases elimination of H+ leading to metabolic acidosis
-less H+ being anti-ported with Na+ leading to decreased Na+ reabsorption
-Increases excretion of: Na, K, HCO3-, H2PO4-
Sulfranliamide and K wasting
-Indication: counteracting diuretic induced metabolic alkalosis
-Adverse Reactions: allergic reactions, metabolic acidosis, diversion of renal ammonia into circulation, kidney stone, bone marrow depression, paresthesia, tingling

Q

chlorothiazide (Diuril)

A

Thiazide Diuretic- sulfonamide analogs, but NOT CA inhibitors

  • block NaCl symport, but not K
  • enter urine via organic ion transporters in PCT
  • K wasting
  • increase excretion of: Na, K, H+, Mg, Cl, bicarb and phos (weak effect)
  • decrease excretion of Calcium
  • act distal to macula so not limited by TGF
  • medullary salt concentration is NOT affected so water retention during dehydration is preserved
  • indications: HTN, edema, calcium nephrolithiasis, osteoporosis, nephrogenci DI
  • adverse effects: hypotension, hypokalemia, hyponatremia, metabolic alkalosis (corticosteroids and amphotericin B increase risk of hypokalemia and cardiac arrhytmias) HYPERcalcemia and hyperuricemia, decrease glucose tolerance, rare CNS, GI and ED effects
  • contraindicated with sulfonamide sensitivity
  • NSAIDs reduce diuretic response d/t decreased GFR
  • Probenecid blocks organic ion transporter thus decreasing diuretic effectiveness
