DCT
what part of the tubule do Na+ channel inhibitors and aldosterone receptor antagonists work on?
collecting duct
main clinical applications for diuretics
heart failure (loop)
HTN (thiazide)
opthalmic preparation of carbonic anhydrases
2
- brinzolamide
- dorzolamide
-amide
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
- used to treat glaucoma
- both oral and topical preparations
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
-amides
causes self limited NaHCO3 diuresis and decreased total body HCO3- stores
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
-amides
used to treat:
metabolic alkalosis
alititude sickness
intracranial HTN
glaucoma
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
-amides
adverse effects
- type 2 RTA
- renal stones
- renal potassium wasting
- CNS effects
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
-amides
“acid” azolamide causes acidosis
loop diuretics
4
- furosemide
- bumetanide
- torsemide
- ethacrynic acid
-ide
- inhibit NKCC
- abolish hypertonicity of medulla
- prevent concentration of urine
loop diuretics
-ides
cause increased Ca+ and Mg2+ excretion
loop diuretics
-ides
Loops Lose Ca2+
nonsulfonamide loop diuretic
ethacrynic acid
adverse effects:
- ototoxicity
- hypokalemia
- hypomagnesium
- dehydration
- allergy (sulfa)
- Alkalosis
- Nephritis
- Gout
loop diuretics
OHH DAANG
-ides
interact with NSAIDs
loop diuretics
-ides
- cause hypokalemia
- frequently combined with potassium sparing agent
loop diuretics
-ides
powerful stimulators of renin release
loop diuretics
-ides
may have to add beta blocker to counteract
most commonly used for relief of pulmonary edema
loop diuretics
-ides
used to treat:
- HTN if thiazides don’t work
- severe hyperkalemia
- acute renal failure (increase urine volume)
loop diuretics
-ides
which loop diuretic is most prone to causing ototoxicity?
ethacrynic acid
adverse effects
- dehydration
- hyponatremia
- hypokalemia
- ototoxicity
- hyperuricemia/gout
- allergic reactions
loop diuretics
-ides
- inhibit NaCl reabsorption in the early DCT
- reduce the diluting capacity of nephron and reduce Ca2+ excretion
-thiazides
inhibit Na+/Cl- cotransport
-thiazides
preferred as antihypertensive drugs in AA and elderly
-thiazides
enhance Ca2+ reabsorption due to increased Na+ gradient
-thiazides
