17
Q

Which diuretics cause hyperkalemia?

A

k sparing

18
Q

Overproduction of aldosterone does what?

A

lose K- hypokalemia
Lose H- Metabolic alkalosis
Retain Na- hypertension
Heart- increased risk of CV disease

19
Q

Determine between secondary or primary aldosteronism?

A

look at renin levels
an increase renin means secondary from decrease effective circulating blood volume, from splanchnic vasodilation, portal hypertension, cirrhosis

a decrease in renin is primary aldosteronism, increase in aldosterone from adenoma, cause increase in BP,etc

20
Q

Treat primary aldosteronism?

A

Spironolactone

Eplerenone

21
Q

Important with acetazolamide?

A

getting rid of bicarb

22
Q

Difference between ethacrynic acid and furosemide?

A

Furosemide- sulfonamide derivative

Ethacrynic acid- ototoxicity

23
Q

Effect do loops and thiazides have on serum K and pH?

A

can cause hypokalemia

can cause metabolic alkalosis

24
Q

Important with loop diuretics?

A

very potent diuretics, lose Ca

25
Q

Important about thiazide diuretics?

A

moderately potent diuretics

retain Ca

26
Q

Why might a patient taking spironolactone complain of painful, enlarged breasts?

A

Spironolactone blocks androgen receptors on breast tissue

27
Q

What else can spironolactone be used for as treatment in women?

A

Acne, Hirsutism, Polycystic ovary syndrome

28
Q

Side effect of sprionolactone on women?

A

menstrual irregularities

29
Q

Why does eplerenone have a low incidence of gynecomastia?

A

it doesn’t block the androgen receptors

30
Q

What do loop diuretics inhibit?

A

Na/K/2Cl NKCC2 in the TAL

31
Q

How potent are loop diuretics?

A

most potent (0.5 to 15-25% Na)

32
Q

What do thiazides do?

A

inhibit Na/Cl NCC channel in the DCT

33
Q

How potent are thiazides?

A

Moderate potency (from 0.5% to 5% Na)

34
Q

How do K sparing diuretics work?

A

Antagonize aldosterone in the collecting tubules

35
Q

How potent are K sparing diuretics?

A

least potent (from 0.5% to 2-3% Na)

36
Q

Clinical uses of CAI?

A

Glaucoma
urinary alkalinization
metabolic alkalosis
acute mountain syndrome

37
Q

Clinical uses of thiazides?

A

Hypertension
heart failure
nephrolithiasis
nephrogenic diabetes insipidus

38
Q

Clin use of loops?

A

hyperkalemia
acute renal failure
anion overdose
Heart failure

39
Q

Clin use of aldosterone antagonists?

A
mineralcorticoids excess
hyperaldosteronism
Conn's syndrome (primary)
Secondary Hyperaldosteronism
reduce albuminuria in diabetic patients
40
Q

side effects with loop and thiazides?

A

hyperkalemic metabolic alkalosis
allergic rxns
hyponatremia
