Study Notes
-
Several diuretics and their respective indications, contraindications (CI), side effects (SE), target doses, and equivalency to BTFE (Bumetanide, Torsemide, Furosemide, Equivalence = 1:20:40:50) are mentioned:
-
Furosemide: HTN, HF, edema; CI: sulfa allergy; SE: metabolic alkalosis, decreases K+, Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, increases BG, TG, Chol, uric acid, and bone density; loop diuretic that requires K+ supplement and is the diuretic of choice for renal disease; IV: ototoxicity and avoid use with aminoglycosides.
-
Lasix: same as Furosemide but with the addition of IV ototoxicity.
-
Torsemide: same as Furosemide but with the addition of IV ototoxicity and K+ supplement requirement.
-
Bumetanide: same as Furosemide but with the addition of IV ototoxicity and K+ supplement requirement.
-
Ethacrynic acid: HTN, HF, edema; SE: metabolic alkalosis, increases BG, TG, Chol, uric acid, decreases K+, Na+, Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, BMD, and bone density; IV: ototoxicity and avoid use with aminoglycosides.
-
Edecrin: diuretic of choice for renal disease when in sulfa allergy; 25-50mg po daily, only loop diuretic that is ok in sulfa allergy; IV: ototoxicity, only 25-50mg po daily; equivalence: BTFE = 1:20:40:50.
-
Triamterene: K+-sparing diuretic for HTN, glaucoma, edema; Dyrenium D: 300mg po qd; SE: metabolic acidosis, increases K+, decreases Ca2+, gout; CI if CrCl < 30; also available as Amiloride and Spironolactone.
-
Amiloride: K+-sparing diuretic for HTN, glaucoma, edema; Midamor D: 20mg po qd; SE: metabolic acidosis, increases K+, decreases Ca2+, gout; CI if CrCl < 30.
-
Spironolactone: K+-sparing diuretic for HF and HTN; Aldactone D: 25-50mg po qd; SE: gynecomastia, metabolic acidosis, increases K+, decreases Ca2+, gout; CI: pregnancy, CrCl < 30; also available as Eplerenone.
-
Eplerenone: aldosterone antagonist used in HF with EF < 35% or post-MI for EF < 40%, HTN, and CI: pregnancy, Scr > 2, CrCl < 30, K > 5; Inspra D: 25-50mg po qd; SE: ↑K+.
