Q

Four main groups of diuretics

A
  1. Things that increase GFR (more across glomerulus)
  2. Substance that inhibit ADH cause increased urine output
  3. Excess osmotically active particles (exceeding Tm for most of them, you will urinate)
  4. Renal transport inhibiting substances (Furosemide)
120
Q

Inhibition of ADH as a diuretic

A

Pituitary disease
Diabetes insipidus (lack of ADH from pituitary)
Alcohol (inhibits ADH release)
Narcotics (depress CNS, inhibit ADH)

Lack of adequate ADH or lack of receptor

121
Q

Carbonic Anhydrase Inhbitors

A

PCT (Because there is not brush border in DCT)
Inhibits filtered bicarb from reabsorption (losing water with this), promoting H+ and bicarb secretion
Short term effect
Metabolic acidosis

122
Q

Loop Diuretics

A

Furosemide
Apical NaK2Cl cotranpsorter in TAL
K_ wasting diuretic

123
Q

Thiazide Diuretics

A

Cholorthiazide

Inhibit Na-Cl cotranpsorter in the DCT

124
Q

Amiloride and Triamterene

A

K+ sparing diuretic
Inhibit the apical Na+ channels in the Collecting Ducts

Spironolactones
Interfere with the actions of aldosterone
Increase Na+ and K+
