Q

Co-administration of NSAIDS with a Loop (esp in a person with cirrhosis or nephritic syndrome) could result in what?

A

Reduction of loop secretion due to competition for weak acid secretion.

60
Q

K-wasting

61

HF
Kidney disease/renal failure
Hepatic cirrhosis

What nonedematous states are treated with diuretics?

A

HTN
Nephrolithiasis
HyperCa
DI

63
Q

Why does HF cause an edematous state?

A

Decreased CO&raquo_space; decreased BP sensed leads to retention of Na and water&raquo_space; unecessary retention of water&raquo_space; pulm or interstital edema result

64
Q

Why does kidney disease cause an edematous state?

A

Renal disease = retention of salt and water, sometimes K = diruetics useful

65
Q

When should diuretics be used in hepatic cirrhosis-caused edema?

A

Useful for when edema and ascites become severe due to liver disease.
DO NOT USE aggressively in patients wtih liver disease….

66
Q

What diuretics are used in HTN (nonedematous state)?

A

Thiazides or loops, combo with vasodilator (bc cause signif salt and water rentention)

67
Q

What diuretics are used in nephrolithiasis (nonedematous state)?

A

Thaizide to reduce urinary Ca concentration and enhance Ca reabsorption

68
Q

What diuretics are used in hypercalcemia (nonedematous state)?

A

Loops coadmin with saline to maintain effective Ca diuresis without volume contraction.

69
Q

What diuretics are used in DI (nonedematous state)?

A

Supplementary ADH only useful when it’s central DI.
Thiazides reduce polyuria and polydypsia in both nephrogenic DI (inadequate responsiveness to ADH) and neurogenic/central DI (deficient ADH production)

70

lops
thiazides
K-sparing
