Site of action
Action
Prec

A

DCT
Impairs Na and Cl reabs
K depleting

2
Q

Thiazides
Enhance what
Other effect

A

Na and h20 excretion

Peripheral vasodilation

3
Q

Thiazides

Anesthesia concerns

A

Low k, low cl, low mg, muscle weakness, potentiates muscle relaxants, nephropathy. Inc risk dig toxicity. Fluid vol status

4
Q
Furosemide 
When diuresis begins 
Dose 
Extensive \_\_ \_\_ 
Excreted by what
A

2-10 min after
0.1-1 mg/kg (give 1 mg)
Protein binding
Glom filt and renal tubular sec

5
Q

Furosemide
Uses
Reduces 2

A

Mobilization of edema fluids periph vasodil precedes onset of diuresis. Reduces ICP, dec venous return

6
Q

Furosemide
Used to tx hyper___ bc they __ absorption
If oliguric give what

A

Hypercalcemia, inhib absorption

0.1mg/kg for oliguria

7
Q
Lasix SE 
Low: 
Potentiated
Toxicity risk, w what 
Decreases 
Cross reac w
A

Hypokalemia and chloremia. Pot NDMR. Enhances nephrotoxic risk when given w aminoglyc and cephalosporin. Dec renal clearance of lithium. Cross reac w lithium

8
Q

Mannitol
Clearance
What it is
How it acts

A

GFR
6 carbon sugar hexose
Renal tubular fluid osmolarity increases, water/na/cl/bicarb excreted

9
Q

Mannitol

Effect on plasma and risk of what

A

Inc plasma osmolarity. Draws from ic to ec space. Inc iv volume, issue w poor lv func can cause pulm edema

10
Q

Mannitol
How its given
Clearance

A

IV,doesnt enter cells

100% by gf none reabsorbed

11
Q

Mannitol uses

4

A

Dx oliguria
Prophylaxis ARF
Reduces ICP and IOP

12
Q

Mannitol dose

When effects start, last

A

0.25-1 g/kg iv
10-15 min
2 hrs

13
Q

Mannitol

Anesthesia concerns

A

Pulm edema
Hypovolemia
Electrolyte changes

14
Q

K sparing diuretics 2

A
Na ch blockers (triamterene) 
Aldosterone antag (spironolactone)
15

A

Collecting duct. Na ch block, non competitive antag of aldosterone

16
Q

Triamterene
Precautions
Combo with what, why

A

Can cause hyperkalemia

Use w hctz to avoid hypo/hyperkalemia

17

HF, ascites, low renin htn, low k, conns syndrome

19
Q

Aldosterone

__ diuretic

A

Weak

20
