7. DIURETICS
The kidney is a complex organ with 3 main functions:
1- Maintain the acid-base balance.
2- Elimination of waste materials & return of useful metabolites to the blood.
3- Maintenance of an adequate electrolyte balance which in turn governs the amount of
fluid retained in the body.
** Malfunction of one or more of these regulatory processes may result in the retention of
excessive fluid by various tissues (edema).
** Edema is an important manifestation of many conditions such as pregnancy &
congestive heart failure.
8. Action of Diuretics:
It increase the urinary output of water and sodium â prevention or
correction of edemaâ through one of the following mechanisms:
1- Increasing the glomerular filtration rate .
2- Decreasing the rate at which sodium is reabsorbed from the
glomerular filtrate by the renal tubules, therefore water is excreted along
with sodium .
3- Promoting the excretion of sodium & therefore water by the kidney.
Uses:
Congestive heart failure, hypertension, edema.
9. Terminology
⢠Natriuresis- Increased sodium excretion
⢠Kaliuresis- Increased Potassium excretion
⢠Diuretics- Drugs which cause a net loss of Na+ and water in urine.
(Exception- Osmotic diuretics (Mannitol) don't cause natriuresis but
produce diuresis)
10. A "diuretic" is an agent that increases urine volume,
While a "Natriuretic Agent" causes an increase in renal sodium excretion.
Because natriuretics almost always also increase water excretion, they
are usually called diuretics.
In simple wordsâŚ.
Drugs inducing a state of increased urine flow are called diuretics.
13. Three Basic Renal Processes
1. Filtration
ďFiltration occurs at the glomerulus and is the first step in urine
formation. Virtually all small molecules that are present in plasma
undergo filtration.
2. Reabsorption
ďMore than 99% of the water, electrolytes, and nutrients that are
filtered at the glomerulus undergo reabsorption.
3. Active Secretion
ďThe kidney has âpumpsâ for active secretion. These pumps transport
compounds from the plasma into the lumen of the nephron.
14. Schematic representation of a nephron and collecting duct
2. Leaky- Freely permeable to water, solutes
Active absorption of Sodium Chloride,
Sodium Bicarbonate Glucose Amino Acids
Organic Solutes Followed by passive
absorption of water
3. Descending limb- Permeable to water
Thick ascending limb â Impermeable to
water but Permeable to sodium by
Na+K+2Cl- Co transport About 25% of
filtered sodium is absorbed here
4. Active transport of sodium by NaCl
symport
Calcium excretion is regulated by
Parathyroid hormone regulated by thyroid
gland
5. Aldosterone- On membrane receptor and cause
sodium absorption by Na+/K+ Exchange
18. Carbonic Anhydrase
Inhibitors
⢠Predominant location of Carbonic
anhydrase (CA) enzyme is the luminal
membrane of the PCT ,
⢠where it catalyzes the dehydration of
H2CO3. By blocking carbonic
anhydrase, inhibitors block NaHCO3
reabsorption
⢠and cause diuresis.
Acetazolamide
Methazolamide
Dorzolamide
Brinzolamide
19. Pharmacokinetics
⢠The carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are well absorbed after oral administration
⢠An increase in urine pH from the HCO3-diuresis is apparent within 30 minutes,
maximal at 2 hours, and persists for 12 hours after a single dose
Acetazolamide (250 mg tablets)
⢠ACEMOXŽ
⢠AZM Ž
⢠EVAMOX Ž
⢠SETACAR Ž
20. Clinical Indications
Glaucoma
⢠Most common indication for use of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
by direct antagonist activity on the ciliary epithelial carbonic anhydrase
Urinary Alkalinization
⢠Uric acid, cystine, and other weak acids are most easily reabsorbed from acidic
urine
Metabolic Alkalosis
⢠Acetazolamide can be useful in correcting the alkalosis
22. Loop Diuretics
⢠It inhibits the reabsorption
of sodium and chloride in
the ascending loop of
Henle resulting in the
excretion of sodium,
chloride & to a lesser
degree potassium &
bicarbonate ions.
⢠Also it decrease the
reabsorption of sodium &
chloride &
⢠increase the excretion of
potassium in the distal
tubule.
23. ⢠Uses:
⢠- Edema associated with:
⢠-Congestive heart failure
⢠-Liver cirrhosis.
⢠-Nephrotic syndrome.
⢠- Acute pulmonary
edema.
⢠- Hypertension.
Contraindications:
- hepatic coma associated
with electrolyte depletion.
- Anuria
- Sever renal diseases .
- Hypersensitivity.
Side effects:
- Dehydration, hypovlemia.
- Hypokalemia,
hyperglycemia,
Hyponatremia
- Nausea, vomiting,
diarrhea, anorexia.
- Tinnitus, blurring of
vision, headache, orthostatic
hypotension, rashes &
photosensitivity.
Note: Because the drug potentates the effects of muscle
relaxants, it is recommended to discontinue oral
medication 1 week before surgery & the I.V. 2 days before
surgery
24.
25. Nursing considerations:
1- When high doses are required, administer lasix by infusion.
2- Store in a light-resistant container.
3- Monitor serum electrolytes & for signs of hypokalemia.
4- Observe patient for signs of dehydration & circulatory collapse .
5- Monitor pulse & blood pressure.
6- Advise the patient to take medication in the morning to avoid
interruption of sleep.
7- Discuss the need for a diet high in potassium.
26. Thiazides
⢠Thiazides inhibit Na-Cl
reabsorption from the
luminal side of epithelial
cells in the DCT by
blocking the Na+/Cl-
transporter (NCC).
⢠Less intracellular
Na+enhances
Na+/Ca++exchanger.
27. Clinical Indications:
hypertension
heart failure
nephrolithiasis (renal stones)
due to idiopathic hypercalciuria
diabetes insipidus
Side effects:
- Hypokalemia ( cardiac arrhythmias).
- Hyponatremia ( nausea, vomiting , lethargy ,
epigastric distress).
- Dry mouth, diarrhea , easy fatigability .
- Skin rashes , muscle cramps.
- Hyperglycemia.
Contra-indications:
Excessive use of any diuretic is dangerous in hepatic
cirrhosis, borderline renal failure, or heart failure
28.
29. Spironolactone
Amiloride
Pharmacodynamics:
ďźThese diuretics prevent K+ secretion
by antagonizing the effects of
aldosterone at the late distal and
cortical collecting tubules.
ďźInhibition may occur by Direct
pharmacologic antagonism of
mineralocorticoid receptors
(spironolactone, eplerenone)
or
ďźBy inhibition of Na+ influx through
ion channels in the luminal membrane
(amiloride, triamterene).
30. Pharmacokinetics
⢠Substantial inactivation of spironolactone occurs in the liver.
⢠Overall, spironolactone has a rather slow onset of action, requiring several days
before full therapeutic effect is achieved.
⢠Eplerenone is a spironolactone analog with greater selectivity for the aldosterone
receptor.
31. Clinical Indications:
⢠Potassium-sparing diuretics are most useful in states of mineralocorticoid excess
or hyperaldosteronism.
⢠In the setting of enhanced mineralocorticoid secretion and excessive delivery of
Na+ to distal nephron sites, renal K+ wasting occurs. Potassium-sparing diuretics
of either type may be used in this setting to blunt the K+ secretory response.
33. Nursing consideration:
- protect drug from light.
- Food may increase absorption of aldactone.
- Obtain serum electrolyte levels prior to starting therapy.
- Record vital signs, intake & output & body weight.
- Advise the client to avoid food high in potassium.
35. Osmotic Diuretics
Pharmacodynamics
⢠The proximal tubule and descending limb of Henle's loop are freely permeable
to water. Any osmotically active agent that is filtered by the glomerulus but not
reabsorbed causes water to be retained in these segments and promotes a water
diuresis.
Pharmacokinetics
⢠Osmotic diuretics are poorly absorbed, which means that they must be given
parenterally. If administered orally, mannitol causes osmotic diarrhea. Mannitol is
not metabolized and is excreted by glomerular filtration within 30-60 minutes.
36. Clinical Indications
⢠To increase urine volume
⢠Reduction of intracranial and intraocular pressure
Toxicity:
⢠Extracellular Volume Expansion
⢠Dehydration, Hyperkalemia and Hypernatremia
⢠Hyponatremia(in patients with diminished renal function)
37. Nursing considerations:
1- Mannitol should not be added to other I.V. solutions nor should it be mixed with
other medications .
2- If blood is to be administered at the sometime , add 20 mEq of sodium chloride to
each liter of mannitol to prevent pseudoagglutination.
3- Monitor & record vital signs .
4- Observe for signs of electrolyte imbalance or dehydration.
5- Observe for signs, & symptoms of pulmonary edema (dyspnea,cyanosis, frothy
sputum).
â Slow the rate & notify the physicianâ.
38. Pharmacodynamics
⢠Mechanism of water reabsorption across
the membranes of collecting duct cells.
Aquaporins 3 and 4 (AQP3, 4) are normally
present in the basolateral membranes,
⢠but the luminal water channel, AQP2, is
inserted only in the presence of ADH or
similar antidiuretic peptides acting on the
vasopressin V2 receptor.
Antidiuretic hormone(ADH) Agonists
⢠Vasopressinand desmopressinare used in
the treatment of central diabetes insipidus.
39. Antidiuretic hormone(ADH) Antagonists
Pharmacodynamics
⢠Antidiuretic hormone antagonists inhibit the effects of ADH in the collecting
tubule.
Pharmacokinetics
⢠Conivaptan and demeclocycline are orally active. Conivaptan and demeclocycline
have half-lives of 5-10 hours.
Clinical Indications
⢠Syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion
⢠Other causes of elevated antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
40. Toxicity
⢠Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus
⢠Renal failure
⢠Demeclocycline should be avoided in patients with liver disease and in children
younger than 12 years
