|
loop of henle
|
|
reabsoprtion of na+, H20(adh req.) HCO3- secretes:k, urea, h+ ions, NH3, some drugs.

|
hydrochlorothiazide
|
|

|
Lasix furosemide
|
|
Potassium sparring, aldosterone antagonist, Increases sodium and water loss, takes days. Often given with loop diuretics to minimize K+ loss.
|
Aldactone, spironolactone
