26
Q

K+ sparring diuretics include what?

A

Spironolactone, eplerenone, Triamtere, Amiloride

27
Q

What is Spironolactone and eplerenones mechanism?

A

Competitive alosterone receptor antagonists in the CCT

28
Q

What is Triamterene and amilorides mechanism?

A

Blocks Na channels in the CCT

29
Q

K+ sparring diuretics clinical use?

A

Hyperaldosteronism
K+ depletion
CHF

30
Q

K+ Sparring diuretics toxicity?

A
  • Hyperkalemia (arrhythmias)

- Edocrine effects with spironolactone (gynecomastia, antiandrogen effects)

31
Q

How do diuretics effect urine NaCl?

A

Increase it in all diuretics (may cause low serum NaCl)

32
Q

How do diuretics effect urine K?

A

Increase it in all but K+ sparring diuretics (may cause low serum K)

33
Q

What happens to urine Ca with loop diuretics?

A

Increases:
Decreased paracellular Ca reabsorption–>
hypocalcemia

34
Q

What happens to urine Ca with thiazides?

A

Decreases:

Enhanced paracellular Ca reabsorption in PT and LOH

35
Q

What diuretics cause acidemia?

A
  • CA inhibitors (decrease HCO3 reabsorption)

- K+Sparing (aldosterone blockade prevents K and H secretion )

36
Q

What else about diuretics causes acidemia?

A

Hyperkalemia–>
K+enters all cells via H/K exchanger–>
More H+ exiting cells

37
Q

What diuretics cause alkalemia?

A

Loop diuretics

Thiazides

38
Q

What are the mechanisms that Loop diuretics and thiazides cause alkalemia?

A

Volume Contraction

K+ Loss

39
Q

What is volume contraction?

A

“Contraction Alkalosis”
Increased ATII–>
Increased Na/H exchange in PT–>
Increased HCO3 reabsorption

40
Q

How does K+ loss lead to Alkalosis?

A

K+Loss–>
K+ exits cells via H/K exchanger–>
Increased H entering cells

41
Q

In low K states, _______ rather than _______ is exchanged for Na in the CCT, leading to ____ and ________

A

H+, K+, alkalosis, Paradoxical aciduria

42
Q

What are the ACE Inhibitors?

A

Captopril, Enalapril, Lisiopril

43
Q

What is the ACE inhibitor mechanism?

A

Inhibit ACE–>
Decreased ATII–>
