Diuretics 2 Flashcards
Adenosine receptors
increase Na reabsorption at proximal tubule
Adenosine A1 receptor antagonists
Vasomotor effects on renal vasculature
blunt proximal tubule and collecting duct NaCl reabsorption
Do not affect K absorption
Caffeine
Weak adenosine receptor blocker–mild diuretic
Natriuretic peptides
ANP, BNP, CNP, urodilatin
BNP
Nesiritide–used for heart failure
Vascular and sodium transport effects
Urodilatin
effects kidney. made in distal tuble. Blunts sodium reabsorption.
Vascular effects: decrease afferent tone and increases efferent tone, increases GFR
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
Inhibit formation of H and bicarb from H20 and CO2
Increase excretion of Na, bicarb, K
Water reabsorption decreased
Urine volume increased
Urine becomes alkaline
Agents: Acetazolamide, dichlorphenamide, methazolamide, dorzolamide, brinzolamide. work at proximal tuble
Acetazolamide
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
Results in up to 85% inhibition of Na bicarb reabsorption–compensated be reabsorption later in tuble. net effect–45%.
RESULTS IN HYPERCHLOREMIC METABOLIC ACIDOSIS
PO is dosed 2-3x/d
Use: acute high altitude sickness, start 24 hrs prior, 250mg-1g daily
Dichlorphenamide
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
Methazolamide
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor
Reduce formation of aqueous humor, lowering IO pressure
Dorzolamide
CAI. 2% ophthalmic solution
Reduce formation of aqueous humor, lowering IO pressure
Used for glaucoma
Brinzolamide
CAI. 1% ophthalmic solution used for glaucoma
CAI Anticonvulsant effects
transports HCO3 from blood to CSF (opposite of kidney)
CAI uses
Glaucoma
edema
Metabolic alkalosis
Acute high altitude sickness
CAI ADEs
Hypokalemia hypercholoremic metabolic acidosis hyperglycemia and glucosuria drowsiness, h/a, depression, paresthesias, SULFA hypersensitivities
