This diuretics pull water into the renal tubule (RT) w/o sodium loss and plus its the only of its kind.

Osmotic Diuretics = mannitol (Osmitrol) or Urea

mannitol is a sugar that isn't well absorb by the tubules - so it acts to ? amount of fuild into the urine due to the osmotic pull

acts to pull large amounts of fluid

Mannitol is often used in acute situations such as decrease ??? before eye surgery or acute attacks of ????

decrease Intraocular pressure (IOP)


Acute attacks of glaucoma

Mannitol is also used in cases such as Increased ??? or acute renal failure (due to shock, drug overdose or trauma)

increased cranial pressure

what diuretics is used to tx IOP before eye surgery, acute glaucoma attack, ICP or acute renal failure due to shock, drug overdose or trauma

mannitol (osmotic diuretic) (IV only)

Contrandictions for osmotic diuretic (Mannitol) are renal disease and anuria from several renal disease, pulmonary ????, intracranial ???, dehydration and ????

pulmonary congestion


intracranial bleeding


heart failure

Adverse Effects for mannitol (osmotic diuretics) is a sudden drop in ????, which can cause GI issues, low BP, CNS and cardiac ??? and even ???

sudden drop in fluid levels


cardiac decompensation


even shock

Individual taking mannitol (osmotic diuretics) should be closely monitored for ??

fluid and electrolyte imbalance

the action of osmotic diuretics which is mannitol iit elevates the osmolarity of ??? leading to loss of water, sodium and chloride

glomerular filtrate

osmotic diuretics "mannitol" decrease swelling ??? of transurethral surgery

post surgery
