Question | Answer |
Carbonic Anhydrase Inhibitors: Action | Sulfonamides with non-bacteriostatic action, that inhibit the enzyme carbonic anhydrase. |
Loop Diuretics: Action | Increase the excretion of sodium and chloride by inhibiting the reabsorption of these ions in the distal and proximal tubules in the Loop of Henle. |
