Q

What is MOA of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors?

A
  • bicarbonate break down into CO2 and H2O in lumen is stopped by blocking carbonic anhydrase
  • NHE3 transporter pumps Na into PCT with use of H ion from bicarbonate
  • without H ion the Na cant enter the PCT cell and the Na/K ATPase cannot pump Na into the blood

Q

TO NSAIDS retain water and Na can can cause peripheral edema

A

TRUE

27
Q

Which is better at reducing BP loop diuretics or thiazides?

A

Thiazides, better at reducing PVR and increasing vasodilation
- loop diuretics are more potent diuretics but they are less effective reducing PVR and vasodilation

28
Q

What are ADE for loop diuretics (7)?

A
  • hypocalcemia
  • hypokalemia
  • hyponatremia
  • hypomagnesemia
  • OTOTOXICITY
  • hypovolemia
  • sulfonamide allergy
29
Q

What are drug interactions with loop diuretics?

A

-NSAIDS

30
Q

Where does 5-8% of Na reabsorption occur?

A

-DCT

31
Q

What is the MOA of thiazides?

A
  • they block the active transporter NCC (Na/Cl carrier)

- NCC contransports Na and Cl from the lumen into the blood

32
Q

In what part of the nephron is Ca reabsorbed through control of PTH?

A

DCT

33
Q

What is the first clinical sign of thiazides (2)?

A
  • increased diuresis

- decreases SV and plasma volume

34
Q

What is the clinical value of thiazides?

A

-chronic sustained decrease in peripheral vascular resistance and smooth muscle relaxation

35
Q

What are ADE?

A
  • hypokalemia
  • Hyperuricemia
  • Hypercalcemia
  • Hypomagnesemia
36
Q

T/F Hypomagnesemia causes Troussads

A

TRUE

37
Q

T/F Chlorthalidone is a thiazide

A

False-it is not a thiazide

-but is acts just like a thiazide

38
Q

What are drug interaction with thiazides (2)?

A

-NSAIDS and anti-diabetics reduce the effects of HCTZ

39
Q

T/F Chlorthalidone has a longer duration of action than thiazides?

A

-True

40
Q

What medication can you give to treat someone with low calcium levels?

A
  • thiazide
41
Q

What is half life of chlorthalidone vs thiazide?

A

-Chlorthalidone: 45-60 hrs

Thiazides: 8-15 hrs

42
Q

When should Thiazides not be used?

A
  • EGFR <30

- unrestricted salt intake

43
Q

What are the effects of thiazides on SBP and DBP (in mmHg)?

A
  • SBP: 15-20 mmHg

- DBP:8-15mmHg

44
Q

What labs should be monitored when using thiazides?

A
  • uric acid levels
  • Ca, K, Na, Mg
  • BUN creatinine
45
Q

Name three thiazides?

A
  • Metolazone,
  • Indapamide
  • HCTZ
46
Q

Which thiazide does not elevate lipid levels?

A

-Indapamide

47
Q

Which thiazide is more effective with concurrent kidney disease?

A

-metolazone

48
Q

Which drugs increase the effects of HCTZ?

A

-reabsorbs Na into blood and excretes K in urine

52
Q

What do aldosterone antagonists do (2)?

A
  • they block aldosterone receptor so Na is not reabsorbed and K is retained in the blood
