Q

20F with early onset HTN. She had low potassium at time of diagnosis of HTN. She is on amlodipine and an OCP. Her creatinine and K are now normal. Aldo:Renin 160 (<80 is normal). What do you do next?

a) Repeat ARR off amlodipine
b) Repeat ARR off OCP
c) Repeat ARR on both amlodipine and OCP
d) 24h urine aldo collection

A

a) Repeat ARR off amlodipine

OCP affects Renin concentration but not the Renin activity (what is measured), amlodipine leads to false neg.

Q

A 34 year-old woman with Graves disease, who has been euthyroid on methimazole 5mg PO daily for the past year, recently tested positive for pregnancy. She is referred for thyroid management in pregnancy. Which of the following is NOT appropriate?

a) Discontinue all anti-thyroidal medications to avoid teratogenicity
b) Check thyroid function tests every 4 weeks during pregnancy
c) Switch to PTU 300mg PO BID and continue until GA 16 weeks
d) Check TRAb titre immediately and check again at GA 18-22 weeks

A

Switch to PTU 300mg PO BID and continue until GA 16 weeks

Switching is an option but too high of a dose based on 1MMZ:20PTU conversion
TraB should be checked as low titres in early pregnancy can help predict successful withdrawal of ATD
