acetazolamide
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitor
oral
Aldosterone antagonists that act at the collecting tubule?
(K+ sparing)
Spironolactone
Eplerenone
brinzolamide
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitor
ophthalmic
dorzolamide
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitor
ophthalmic
bumetanide
loop diuretic
ethacrynic acid
loop diuretic
-not a sulfonamide derivative
-more common to cause ototoxicity
furosemide
loop diuretic
Brand name: Lasix
"last six hours"
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors?
Works at the proximal convoluted tubule.
MOA net result: Increased excretion of Na+ and HCO3-
**This increases urine pH ~8
-this can potentially cause metabolic acidosis.

ADRs: Sulfa allergies
-may worsen hepatic encephalopathy
-renal stone formation
-worsen metabolic or respiratory acidosis
-can potentiate hypokalemia
-can decrease excretion of other drugs due to pH increase
dichlorphenamide
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitor
oral
HCTZ
Thiazide diuretic
chlorothiazide
Thiazide diuretic
indapamide
Thiazide diuretic
Loop Diuretics?
MOA: blocks the Na+/K+/2Cl- cotransporter to prevent reabsorption of Na+ and Cl-, increasing tubular excretion.
Also decreases potential difference and increases excretion of Ca++ and Mg++
Basically increases excretion of all ions.
METABOLIZED: liver

**contraindicated with sulfa allergy**
EXCEPT ethacrynic acid

ADRs
hypo-natremia, -kalemia, -magnesmia, -calcemia, severe dehydration
-ototoxicity
-hyperuricemia
-hyperglycemia
-increase LDL, not significant
-photosynsensitivity
-increase dig induced arrhythmias
-decrease lithium clearance
-increase propanolol in the plasma
-NSAIDs decrease diuretic response
chlorthalidone
Thiazide diuretic
Loops increase _______ ion excretion?
calcium
Mannitol
Osmotic diuretic
-given IV
Clinical uses:
-intracranial pressure
-intraocular pressure
-reduces dialysis disequilibrium syndrome

ADRs:
severe dehydration
hypokalemia
headache, nausea, vomiting

DIs
-increases urinary excretion of lithium
-promotes excretion of salicylates, barbiturates, imipramine
methazolamide
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitor
oral
metolazone
Thiazide diuretic
Na+ channel antagonists at the site of the collecting tubule?
Triamterene
Amiloride

(K+ sparing)
Adverse effects of spironolactone?
Hyperkalemia
gynecomastia, impotence, menstrual irregularities, decreased libido
CNS
may induce gastritis/gastric bleeding
skin rash

Altered clearance of digoxin.
Osmotic Diuretics
-Freely filtered at glomerulus
-limited tubular reabsorption

Primary site of action: Loop of Henle
-some activity at proximal tube

Increases the urinary excretion of almost all electrolytes: Na+, K+, Ca++, Mg++, Cl-, HCO3-, phosphate
Adverse effects of eplerenone?
More selective for the aldosterone receptor, less androgen/testosterone effects.
Hyperkalemia
GI disorders
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics?
2 types?
Site of Action?
Na+ channel antagonists: work by blocking Na+ channels
Aldosterone antagonists:
-inhibits the binding of aldosterone to its receptor
-regulates Na+ and enhances K+ secretion
-increases activity of Na+/K+ ATPase and Na+ and K+ channels



Site of action: collecting tubule

These are generally weak diuretics that are seldom used alone. They are used to counteract hypokalemia caused by loops or thiazide diuretics.
Therapeutic uses of Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors
Open angle glaucoma
Adjunctive therapy for epilepsy
Prevention of altitude sickness
Correction of Metabolic Alkalosis
Thiazide Diuretics?
These work in the distal convoluted tubule.
MOA: block the NaCl transporter in the distal convoluted tubule, inhibiting reabsorption
-only moderately effective, 90% of the filtered load has been reabsorbed before reaching the distal tubule.
-reduces Ca++ excretion

Thiazide diuretics are ineffective when GFR is low.
Quinidine and thiazides may result in prolongation of QT intervals and can lead to torsades de pointes

ADRs
-hypotension, hypo: -kalemia, -natremia, -cholermia, -magnesemia
-metabolic alkalosis
-hypercalcemia-reduces urinary Ca++ concentrations
-hyperuricemia
-diminishes effects of anticoagulants
-effectiveness reduced by NSAIDS, bile acid sequesterants
AEs
-photosensitivity
-CNS
-GI
-ED/impotentence
glycerin
oral osmotic diuretic
Thiazides ________ excretion of Ca++?
decrease
isosorbide
oral osmotic diuretic
Thiazides are ________ when GFR is low?
ineffective
torsemide
loop diuretic
urea
Osmotic diuretic
-given IV
