Diuretics and Antidiuretics Flashcards
Carbonic anhydrase (CAse) inhibitors
Acetazolamide
Acetazolamide
Inhibits carbonic anhydrase in PCT
Cause alkaline diuresis
Hpehloei etaoli aidosis
Ciliary body of eye
Secrets HCO3- into the aqueous humor (CAse is required)
Choroid plexus
Secrets HCO3- into the CSF (CAse is required)
Carbonic anhydrase (CAse) inhibitors Indications
Glaucoma
** dorzolamide & brinzolamide **
Acute mountain sickness
Urinary alkalization
Metabolic alkalosis
Carbonic anhydrase (CAse) inhibitors Adverse Effects
Hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis
- Renal stones
- Hypokalemia
Hypersensitivity reactions
Carbonic anhydrase (CAse) inhibitors Contraindications
*hepatic cirrhosis
Loop diuretics (High ceiling diuretics)
Furosemide
Furosemide
inhibit Na+/K+/2Cl- co-transport in the thick ascending limb of loop of Henle ->
abolition of lumen positive potential
Most efficacious diuretics
*** increase renal blood flow (due to PG synthesis)
↑ loss of Mg++ & Ca++
Loop diuretics (High ceiling diuretics) Indications
Acute pulmonary edema
Edema due to acute left ventricular failure
Acute renal failure
Hypercalcemia
Anion overdose
Loop diuretics (High ceiling diuretics) Side Effects
Hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis
Ototoxicity
Hyperuricemia
Hypocalcemia
Hypomagnesemia
Allergic reactions (skin rash, eosinophilia, interstitial nephritis)
Other toxicities
- severe dehydration
- hyponatremia
Thiazides
Hydrochlorothiazide, chlorothiazide
Hydrochlorothiazide, chlorothiazide
Block Na+/Cl- co-transport in DCT
↑ Ca++ reabsorption
↑ uric acid level
Thiazides Indications
Hypertension
Heart failure
Nephrolithiasis (due to idiopathic hypercalciuria)
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
Thiazides Adverse Effects
Hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis
Hyperuricemia
Impaired carbohydrate tolerance- *hyperglycemia
*Hyperlipidemia
Allergic reactions- photosensitivity, hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia 7.
weakness, fatigability & parasthesia
