Where does acetazolamide work?
convoluted proximal tubule
Where does mannitol work?
convoluted proximal tubule

thin descending loop

collecting duct
Where does furosemide work?
thick ascending limb
Where do thiazides work?
early distal tubule

(maybe straight proximal)
where do aldosterone blockers work?
collecting tubule
Where do ADH agonists work?
collecting duct
Diuretics that work where in the nephron have greatest effect?,
earlier
Why is it that Diuretics that work on the earlier nephron have greatest effect?
they are able to block more sodium and chloride reabsorption
Predominant location of Carbonic Anhydrase enzyme is the ______
luminal membrane of the proximal tubule cells
What major metabolic disturbance might carbonic anhydrase inhibitors cause?
metabolic acidosis
Azetazolamide is Not in use as diuretic anymore.

Primary indications are
glaucoma

(prevents production of aequous humor)

Also:
To enhance renal excretion of acidic drugs
Metabolic Alkalosis
Altitude sickness (decreases cerebral and pulmonary edema)
Seizures
Other CA inhibitor:
Dorzolamide
If you're using acetazolamide to treat edema assoc with liver failure, pt may have trouble excreting what?
bases, like NH4+
Pt is allergic to antibiotics. Why not use CA inhibitors?
CA-inhibitors are sulfonamides =>cross-allergenic with antibiotics etc.
Prototype Osmotic Diuretic
Mannitol
Uses of Mannitol
Decrease intraocular and intracranial pressure
Prevent anuria in hemolysis and rhabdomyolysis
the sulfonamide-derived loop diuretic
Furosemide
the non-sulfonamide-derived loop diuretic
Ethacrynic acid
the most efficacious diuretic agents available.
loops
Is furosemide diuresis limited be development of acidosis?
no
Normally,
in thick ascending limb, excess cellular K+ leaks into the urine and causes what 2 ions to escape to the interstium thru paracellular pathways.
Mg2+ and Ca2+
So, what pharmaceuticals for diuresis can cause hypomagnesemia?
loops
3 of the sulfonamide-derived loop diuretics
Furosemide
Bumetanide
Torsemide
loop diuretic effects on RAAS.
turn RAAS on
major ion loss side effects of loop diuretics
K+
Ca++
Mg++
Which loop diuretic causes more ototoxicity?
ethacrynic acid
why would ethacrynic acid be given over furosemide?
if pt has sulfonamide sensitivity
loop diuretics = high _____ diuretics
ceiling
Site of action of thiazides
Inhibit NaCl transport predominantly in the distal convoluted tubule
Drug that's not a thiazide but a sulfonamide qualitatively similar to the thiazides
Chlorthaladone
symport blocked by thiazides
Na-Cl symport
Where do thiazides work in relation to the macula densa?
after
Major side effects of thiazides
Immediate/Acute Effects; loss of K+ , Na+, Cl- (and Mg++, but not Ca++)
2 thiazides to know for the test
Chlorthalidone*
Hydrochlorothiazide
Chronic effects of Thiazide Diuretics
Hyperuricemia
Hyperlipidemia
If you have kidney stones, should you take a thiazide.
Sure. It will probably help get rid of your stones.
Thiazide Diuretic Therapy will have the what effect on Ca, Mg, K, Na electrolytes
Calcium Increased
