Q

What is the idea of Renal Potassium Wasting

A

more Na lost/in urine so when it goes through the COLLECTING TUBULE - more Na is reabsorbed there which means more K+ is lost

Q

How does mannitol work?

A

its an osmotic diuretic; limits water reabsorption because sugar in the urine “holds” the water

A

mannitol

17
Q

which diuretic is contraindicated with CYP3A4 inhibitors (ketoconazole)

A

eplerenone

18
Q

which diuretic is used for glaucoma?

A

CAI

19
Q

which diuretic is used for treating acute mountain sickness?

A

CAI

20
Q

which diuretic is used for treating metabolic alkalosis?

A

CAI

21
Q

Which drugs are contraindicated with a sulfa allergy?

A

acetazolamide; furosemide; bumetanide; thiazides

22
Q

which diuretic is contraindicated with hepatic cirrhosis

A

acetazolamide

23
Q

How do loop diuretics work?

A

work on the ascending limb by inhibiting the Na/K/Cl cotransporter - causes decrease reabsorption of Na, K, Cl, Mg, Ca
(Ca and Mg because of K voltage ion charge)

24
Q

Which diuretic can cause ototoxicity?

A

loop diuretic

25
Q

where do thiazide drugs work?

A

distal convoluted tubule

26
Q

which diuretic is known as the most efficacious?

A

loop diuretic

27
Q

which diuretic is known as mild?

A

CAI

28
Q

How do thiazide drugs work?

A

work in distal convoluted tubule by inhibited NaCl reabsorption

29
Q

which diuretic causes impaired carbohydrate tolerance

A

thiazides

30
Q

which diuretics work on the collecting tubule by inhibiting the Na channel

A

amiloride; triamterene

31
Q

which diuretics are contraindicated with ACE inhibitors

A

ANY POTASSIUM SPARING DIURETIC - aka Amiloride; triamterene; spironolactone; eplerenone

32
Q

what is spironolactone use to treat

A

HTN or CHF; Mineralcorticoid excess; aldosteronism
