E2: Diuretics Flashcards
What drug class(s) acts in proximal tubule reabsorption
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
what drug class(s) acts in loop of Henle reabsorption
Loop diuretics
what drug class(s) acts in distal tubule reabsorption
Thiazide and related diuretics
what drug class(s) acts in collecting duct reabsorption
Potassium sparing diuretics
Antidiuretic hormone regulation
4 mechanisms of ion absorption in tubule cell
Na+/H+ exchange
Na+/K+/2Cl- co-transport
Na+/Cl- co-transport
Na+ entry through Na+ channels
Compare and contrast the acute and chronic effect of diuretics as antihypertensive therapy
Acutely, diuretics act to
-↓BP by causing diuresis
-↓ plasma vol & SV - ↓ CO & BP
-initial ↓ CO causes a compensatory ↑ in PVR
Over time,
-ECF and plasma vol returns to pretreatment levels and PVR falls below baseline
-↓PVR is responsible for LT hypotensive effects
-thiazides mobilize Na+/water from arteriolar walls to ↓ PVR and ↓BP
Which drug class is a derivative of sulfonamides
True thiazide diuretics (hydrochlorthiazide)
what drug class contains quinazolines or indoline structures
thiazide-like drugs (chlorthalidone, metolazone & indapamide)
Thiazide diuretics MOA, pharm effects (hydrochlorothiazide), indications
- inhibit Na+/Cl- cotransporter at distal tubule to increase excretion of Na+ and Cl- in urine
- ↑Ca2+ reabsorption in proximal tubule by increasing passive reabsorption and in distal tubule by decreasing Na+ which increases Na+/Ca2+ exchange in basolateral membrane
- induce expression of apical Ca2+ channels
↑ NaCl excretion, K+ wasting, ↓ urine Ca2+
HTN, mild HF, nephrolithiasis, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
Thiazide diuretics uses
- HTN
- Nephrolithiasis (renal calculi, ↓ Ca2+ excretion aka kidney stones)
- nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
Thiazide diuretics ADR
Specific ADR of hydrochlorothiazide
electrolyte imbalances
CNS (dizziness, confusion, irritability)
Hyperuricemia
sexual dysfunction
HYPERURICEMIA, HYPERGLYCEMIA, hypoatremia
thiazide diuretic DI
combo w/other anti-HTN, monitor BP
NSAIDS ↑Na+ retention which antagonizes therapeutic effect of thiazides
Topiramate (↓K,↓Cl)
Digitalis: ↑arrhythmias
Lithium:↓ renal excretion of Li+, toxic
Allopurinol: ↑ allergic response
What patients are loop diuretics preferred over thiazides
CKD when est GFR is <30ml,min.1.73m2 and edema is present
Loop diuretics MOA
Inhibit Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter on the apical membrane of cells in the loop of Henle
Result in ↓ reabsorption of Na+ & Cl- –> ↑excretion in urine
↓ the positive transepithelial potential- causes marked ↑ in Ca2+ & Mg2+ secretion –> hypocalcemia & hypomagnesemia
Loop diuretics ADR
Hypotension & volume depletion
Hypokalemia
Alkalosis – due to enhanced H+ secretion
Mg+ wasting
Dose-related ototoxicity – caution w/aminoglycosides
Ethacrynic acid produces GI disturbances
