Q

Why are loop diuretics called high ceiling diuretics?

A

At certain high dose, the diuretic action seizes and there is no more diuresis no matter how much dose is increased

Q

MOA of furosemide

A

Uses uric acid transporter to get inside the epithelial cell from Basolateral side and inhibit Na+K+2cl- cotransporter on luminal side.
Therefore: water follows na+, there is loss of water, sodium, calcium,magnesium are also lost in the lumen and coz furosemide uses uric acid transporter; there is hyperuricemia

Q

MOA of thiazide

Indications of thiazide (5)

A

Inhibit Na+\cl- cotransporter
1. HTN
2. CHF
3. Hypercalcemia
4. Nephrogenic D.I
5. Osteoporosis

18
Q

Difference between s/e: thiazides and furosemides

A

Thiazide : impotence
Increased calcium reabsorption
—-> hypercalcemia

Loop diuretics: Ototoxic
Increase calcium loss
—> hypocalcemia

19
Q

Longest acting thiazide

Acetazolamide is ……inhibitor

A

Chlorthalidone

Non competitive, reversible carbonic anhydrase

20
Q

DOC for HTN

Conditions where furosemide is used as AntiHTN (2)

A

Thiazide - sustained Bp decrease

  1. HTN crisis
  2. HTN with low GFR -acute renal failure
21
Q

Usually thiazides have no effect on decreased GFR; Thiazide which has effect on deceased GFR

Potassium sparing duretics act on …..

A

Metolazone

Distal tubule/ Cortical collecting duct

22
Q

Aldosterone receptor antagonist act by…..

Triamterene and amiloride act by ……

A

Inhibiting Na+K+ exchange

Blocking sodium channels

23
Q

Menstrual irregularity seen with …..diuretics

Mx diuretic used in heart failure
Mx diuretic used to rx HTN

A

Potassium sparing

Loop diuretics

Thiazide diuretics

24
Q

Use of metolazone.

Name a Uricosuric diuretic . Use .

A

Refractory edema in CKD

Indacrinone
Ethacrynic analogue -used for Rx gout with diuretic rx where loop and thiazides are C/I.

25
Q

Spironolactone acts on ….side of renal tubular cell

Define anti diuretics
They ……….urine volume

A

Interstitial side of renal tubular cell.

Inhibit water excretion without affecting sodium excretion.

Decrease

26
Q

Human ADH is ……
It is a …..secreted by ….

A

A

Hydrochlorothiazide

Uses:
1. DI- neurogenic

  1. Nocturnal enuresis - desmopressin decrease urine volume and control symptoms

  4. ADPKD ( decrease growth of cysts)
37
Q

MOA of conivaptan

RX for SIADH (3)

A

V1a + V2 receptor antagonist

  1. 3% saline
  2. DOC-V2 blocker- vaptans
  3. Miscellaneous: lithium, demeclocycline
38
Q

Drugs to increase ADH secretion / ADH like action (8)

A

C3 OF VAP
Chlorpropamide
Carbamazepine
Cyclophosphamide
Oxytocin
Fluoroquinolones
Vincristine
Antidepressants: TCA/ SSRI
Procarbazine

39
Q

Define free water clearance

A

Extra water in urine than needed to produce isoosmotic urine

40
Q

Free water clearance of
Positive value
Negative value
Zero

A

Positive: dilute urine
Negative : concentrated urine
Zero: isotonic urine

41
Q

Medications with decreased positive, negative and zero free water clearance

A

Positive : thiazides
Negative : ADH and ADH like drugs
Zero: loop diuretics and mannitol - block both positive and negative-FWC =0
