A

Potassium-Sparring Diuretic

Adverse: Kidney stones, Hyperkalemia

Once a day

21
Q

Osmotic diuretics

A

Draw water into the plasma from interstitial & cellular sites

No change in ionic balance

Mannitol & Glycerol

22
Q

Osmotic Diuretic clinical uses

A

Increase urine volume: Mannitol

Reduction of Intracranial pressure: Mannitol (15mins)

Reduction of intraocular pressure: Glycerol, Mannitol

Decrease TBW greater than total cation. Reduces intracellular volume

23
Q

Osmotic Diuretic adverse effects

A

Heart Failure

N/V

Pulmonary congestion

Edema

24
Q

Glycerol

A

Osmotic diuretic

Tx: intraocular pressure (glaucoma)

Adverse: HF, N/V, Pulmonary congestion, edema

1hr oral

25
Q

Mannitol

A

Osmotic diuretic

Tx: Intracranial pressure, Intraocular pressure

Adverse: HF, N/V, Pulmonary congestion, edema

7hr IV

26
Q

Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors

A

In PT block Na+ bicarb reabsorption -> Na+ bicarb diuresis

Significant loss of bicarb may result in hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis

Mild, short-term diuretics

27
Q

Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors clinical uses

A

Glaucoma: (acetazolamide oral/IV & dorzolamide topical) Decrease rate of aqueous humor formation

Acute Mountain sickness: (acetazolamide) Decrease formation of CSF and lowers pH. Counteract respiratory alkalosis. prophylaxis. Severe with cerebral edema - Acetazolamide + dexamethasone, evacuate

28
Q

Acetazolamide

A

Carbonic Anydrase Inhibitor

Acute Mountain sickness: Decrease formation of CSF and lowers pH. Counteract respiratory alkalosis. prophylaxis. Severe with cerebral edema - Acetazolamide + dexamethasone, evacuate

Adverse: No IM due to alkalinic pain, Contraindicated with Liver disease, metabolic acidosis, hyperglycemia

10hr oral
