diuretics

QuestionAnswer
Vasopressin used to manage diabetes insipidus
Vasopressin cardiac related adverse effects
Desmopressin analog used for nocturnal enuresis
mannitol administerd IV only
mannitol used for prophlaxis of acute renal failure
mannitol useful for reducing cerebral edema and intraocular pressure
Glycerin and isosrbide administered orally and used for opthalmic procedures
Carbonic Anyhdrase inhibitors metabolic acidosis, Potassium wasting, contraindicated in presence of hepatic cirrhosis
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors used for glaucoma, siezure disorders, enhance renal secretion of uric acid and cystiene, and acute mountian sickness
Carbonic Anyhydrase inhibitors acetozolamide, dichlorphenamide--> sulfonamide derivatives
potassium sparing diuretics interfere with potassium secretion and sodium reabsoption
potassium sparing diuretics not potent when used alone
potassium sparing diuretics used primarily in combination with other siuretics
Spironolactone structural analog of aldosterone
spironolactone absorbed by GI, metabolized in liver
amiloride and triamterene used for CHF and cirrhosis
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors reduce HCO3 reabsoprtion and concomitant soduim uptake
carbonic anhydrase inhibitors inhibits excretion of hydrogen
Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors absorbed from GI, secreted by proximal tubule
loop diuretics hypotension, volume depletion, hypokalemia, alkalosis, mag. wasting, ototoxicity
loop diuretics used for acute pulmonary edema and CHF when coadministerd with thiazide, HTN, hypercalcemia and halide poisoning
loop diuretics furosemide, piretanide, bumetanide, ethacrynic acid, torsemide
loop diuretics absorbed by GI or given parenterally
loop diuretics inhibit sodium chloride reabsorption in thick ascending limb and increase potassium, magnesium, anc calcuim excretion
thiazides used with caution in renal or hepatic disease
thiazides hypokalemia, hyponatremia, hypochloremic alkalosis, elevated serum urate, hyperglycemia, hypersensitivity
thiazieds used for HTN, hypercalciuria and diabetes insipidus
thiazides often used in combination with potassium sparing agents to manage mild cardiac edema, cirrhotic or nephrotic edema, and edema from hormone imbalance
thiazides chlorothiazide, HCTZ, chlorthalidone, benzthiazide, cyclothiazide-->synthetics metolazone and indapamide
thiazides absorbed from GI tract, secreted into lumen of proximal tubule and inhibits active reabsoption of NaCl in the ascending loop of henle while increasing excretion of Cl, Na, K and at high doses HCO3

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
