lowered
i.e. increase calcium reabsorption

uric acid
calcium
12

25
[diuretics]: K+ sparing: what is the duration of onset of spironolactone
days
26
[diuretics]: K+ sparing: why are K+ sparing diuretics most frequently prescribed
ameliorates K+ loss due to loop/thiazides
27
[diuretics]: what and why are loop or thiazide diuretics given in conjuction with
K+
| ameliorates K+ loss due to loop/thiazides
28
[diuretics]: K+ sparing: SEs
```
metabolic acidosis (H+ retention)
hyperkalaemia
```
29
[diuretics]: K+ sparing: why does spironolactone produce gynecomastia
it inhibits androgen production
30
[diuretics]: K+ sparing: spironolactone 2 SEs
GI upset
| Gynecomastia
31
[diuretics]: osmotic: e.g.
Mannitol
32
[diuretics]: osmotic: MOA ?
freely filtered at glomerulus
poorly reabsorbed in tubule
holds water by osmotic effect
33
[diuretics]: osmotic: other than BP control, what is their use? (4)
raised ICP
Brain volume reduction
intra-ocular pressure reduction
rhabdomyolysis
34
[diuretics]: osmotic: mannitol can be used in what muscle disorder?
Rhabdomyolysis
35
[diuretics]: osmotic: what complication can occur in patients who cannot form urine
pulmonary oedema
36
[diuretics]: osmotic: why in patients who can not form urine can you get lung complications
transient expansion of extracellular due to extraction from intracellular --> pulmonary oedema
37
[diuretics]: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: e.g.
Acetazolamide
38
[diuretics]: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: MOA
increase excretion of HCO3 and therefore Na+, K+, h2o
39
[diuretics]: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: increased bicarbonate in urine results in (2)
alkaline urine
| metabolic acidosis
40
[diuretics]: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: when are they indicated
Glaucoma
| not diuretic
41
[diuretics]: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: how do they work in glaucoma
reduce formation of aqueous humour
42
[diuretics]: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: also used by climbers/mountaineers, why?
acidosis = increased respiration = improve acclimatization = reduced risk of acute mountain sickness
43
[diuretics]: carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: why does inhibiting this enzyme work?
Bicarbonate reabsorption in dependent on carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
