Diuretics Diuretic therapy causes renal loss of potassium in a dose-dependent manner and is the most common cause of hypokalemia. With loop diuretics, such as furosemide, hypokalemia can occur even when potassium supplementation is given. Even though loop diuretics are more potent natriuretics, thiazide diuretics can cause

little or no hypokalemia.7,9 The short duration of action of 2 to 4 hours of all loop diuretics after oral dosing is a class defect that can lead to 3 problems. First, the urinary concentration of the loop diuretic resides within the therapeutic range for only a short period.10,15 Second, the abrupt but short-lived natriuresis

The predominant pathophysiologic mechanism(s) varies from patient to patient. The cornerstone of therapy is cessation of thiazide use, cation repletion, and oral uid restriction. If severely symptomatic, fl 3% saline solution may be indicated. Overly rapid correction of chronic hyponatremia must be avoided in all cases.

Both loop and distal convoluted tubule diuretics cause potassium wasting. Distal convoluted tubule diuretics are more potent, causing initial kaliuresis by increasing distal flow and sodium delivery. This effect wanes in chronic use, and hypokalemia is closely correlated with the elevation in aldosterone concentration,38 with typical reduction ...

Electrolyte imbalance, particularly hypokalemia, is the most common adverse effect of loop diuretics. Through this mechanism, diuretics may increase mortality (especially arrhythmic deaths).

that loop diuretics, which increase distal calcium delivery, generate less hypokalemia. Another reason may be that the compensatory response to loop diuretics derives from in-creased electroneutral NaCl reabsorption in the DCT, which would not be expected to enhance potassium secretion. Instead, thiazide diuretics induce adaptation primarily along

In contrast to thiazides, loop diuretics interfere with the concentrating ability of the kidneys, hence increasing free water excretion. In heart failure, the urine produced by loop diuretics is hypotonic (sodium concentration 60 mEq/L) and the net effect of loop diuretics in hyponatremia is expected to be a gradual increase in serum sodium concen-
