Osmotic diuretics small molecules that are filtered at the glomerulus but not subsequently reabsorbed in the nephron constitute an intraluminal osmotic force limiting reabsorption of water across water-permeable nephron segments
Mannitol
32
Potassium Sparing site of action
Collecting duct
33
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics blockade of aldosterone receptor in collecting ducts inhibits synthesis of new Na+ channels (and new Na+/K+ ATPase) in the principal cells by binding to and preventing nuclear translocation of the mineralcorticoid (aldosterone) receptor decrease potassium and proton secretion
Spironolactone
34
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics competitive inhibitors of the apical membrane Na+ channel decrease potassium and proton secretion
Triamterene
35
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics competitive inhibitors of the apical membrane Na+ channel decrease potassium and proton secretion blocks the uptake of lithium by the Na+ channel in the collecting duct

49
retain their function in patient’s with very low creatinine clearance

55
The diuretics directly target renal ion transporter or channel function or expression to increase renal (1) excretion and thereby decrease (2)
1. Na+ 2. extracellular fluid volume
56
The modest diuresis caused by the (1) is due to the fact that 90% of sodium reabsorption occurs before reaching the distal tubule
