Term
Categories of Diuretics
Definition
Loop
Thiazide
Potassium sparing
carboanhydrase inhibitor
xathine derivatives
Term
Which category of diuretic has a "high ceiling?" A "low ceiling?"
Definition
High = Loop
Low = Thiazide
Term
Loop and thiazides are derived from this substance.
Definition
sulfonamide/H2NSO4 (except ethacrynic acid)
Term
Loop diuretics end in this suffix.
Definition
semide.
Term
Furosemide, Torsemide
Definition
Loop Diuretics
Term
Bumetanide
Definition
loop diuretic (that doesn't end in -semide)
Term
Ethacrynic acid
Definition
Loop diuretic (non-sulfonamide)
Term
Describes steps of loop diuretic action
Definition
1) secreted in proximal tubules through PSOASS - Probenecid sensitive organic acid secretory system
2)Into the ascending loop of Henle
3) Inhibits Na/2Cl/K co-transport
Term
Endogenous negative organic acid that is secreted by PSOASS
Definition
Uric acid (PSOASS is saturable and so uric acid and exogenous secreted acids compete - > gout)
Term
Loop diuretic effects: urine volume? Renal O2 consumption? CSF production? Smooth muscle? Broncho- and vaso- effect? Carbonic anhydrase? RPF/GFR
Definition
Up: Urine volume
Down: CSF, Renal O2 consumption (stops active reabsorption. CA Inhibited. RPF/GFR unchanged
Smooth muscle relaxation, Brocho- and vasodilation.
Term
Loop diuetic effects: plasma K, Mg, Ca, Cl, Uric acid, glucose, TG, HDL, acid
SE?
Definition
Down: K (arrhythmias, flat T, U waves), Mg, Ca (tx for hypercalcemia), Cl and H+ (hypochloremic alkalosis -> hypokalemia) , HDL
Up: uric acid, glucose, TG
SE: Cochlear ototoxicity (tinnitus)
Term
Loop Diuretic IV uses
Definition
For glaucoma (high IOP/intraocular pressure), ICP (intracranial pressure) , pulmonary edema, ARF (acute renal failure)
More for emergencies
Term
Loop Diuretic oral uses
Definition
cardiac and renal insufficiency
Term
Chlorothiazide, Hydro-chlorothiazide
Definition
thiazide diuretics
Term
Chlorthalidone and Indapamide
Definition
diuretics that act like thiazides but are not thiazides
Term
Describes steps of thiazide diuretic action
Definition
1) secreted in early distal tubules through PSOASS - Probenecid sensitive organic acid secretory system
2) Inhibits Na/Cl co-transport
Term
Thiazide diuretic effects: urine volume? Carbonic anhydrase? RPF/GFR
Definition
Up: urine volume (less than with loop diuretics)
Down: Urine volume in those with diabetes insipidus. Carbonic anhydrase (inhibited), RPF/GFR (don't use with ARF or as an IV)
Term
Thiazide diuetic effects: plasma K, Mg, Ca, Cl, Uric acid, glucose, TG, HDL, acid
SE?
Definition
Down: K (arrhythmias, flat T, U waves), Mg, Ca in urine, Cl and H+ (hypochloremic alkalosis -> hypokalemia) , HDL
Up: Ca (in plasma/conserves it), uric acid, glucose, TG
Term
Thiazine Diuretic oral uses
Definition
Cardiac insufficiency (reduce BP but low ceiling), edema, diabetes insipidus, urinary calculi composed of Ca salts. (COMBINE with K sparing diuretic to counter hypokalemia.)
Term
Aldosterone antagonists effect, mode of action
Definition
diuretic + potassium sparing thru less Na resorption; block aldosterone attachment to cytoplasmic receptors in collecting duct so no transporters synthesis.
Term
Spironolactone, Canrenone. Delivery method? t 1/2? SE?
Definition
Aldosterone antagonists: Spironolactone (oral only, 2 hr t1/2) Canrenone (IV, 17 hr t1/2); Steroidal side effects e.g. gynecomastia
Term
Cycloamidine derivatives effect, mode of action
Definition
potassium sparing only;
1) secreted through Organic Cation Transporter into collecting duct
2) blocks Na channel and Na/H+ exchanger (mild increase in urine pH)
Term
Triamterene, Amiloride. Metabolism? t1/2? SE?
Definition
Cycloamidine derivatives, potassium sparing drugs, Only triamterene metabolized, Triamterene t1/2 = 4-6 hr, Amiloride 18-20 hr; Triamterene: decrease folic acid, Amiloride: increase plasma Ca, both: azotemia (increase nitrogen compounds) DO NOT COMBINE WITH other K sparing drugs (Aldosterone agonists, ACE inhibitors, supplements)
Term
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: functional group, effect, mode of action
Definition
SO2NH2, pH in blood goes down, pH and K in urine (and urine volume/diuretic) go up, soda loses taste.
1)secreted into early proximal tubule through OAT
2)inhibition of CA
Term
CAI uses
Definition
for glaucoma (increased IOP), maintains respiratory drive (prevents mountain sickness-> hyperventilation, increased blood pH), sequential nephron blockade (of Na resorption)
Term
Acetazolamide
Definition
Carbo-anhydrase inhibitor
Term
Xanthine derivatives: mode of action, effect
Definition
adenosine receptor blocker (dilates efferent arteriole, raises RPF/GFR and thus water filtration (diuretic)
Term
Caffeine, theophylline, theobromine
Definition
xanthines (adenosine-1 receptor blockers)
