How does furosemide treat hypertension?

Hypertension occurs when a person's blood pressure is chronically elevated. This is defined as having a diastolic blood pressure of over 140 and a systolic blood pressure of over 90. Essential hypertension occurs when the causes of hypertension is unknown whereas secondary hypertension occurs when there is an identifiable cause. Furosemide can be used to treat hypertension. It is a loop diruetic and it is one of the most effective diruetic for treating hypertension. It prevents NaCl re-absorption at the ascending limb of the loop of Henle. This results in salt and water loss, reduced extracellular fluid volume and hence decreased cardiac output. As furosemide causes the excretion of potassium, it can lead to hypokalemia with fatal consequences. It may also cause hyperuricemia and hyperglycemia.


How is a loop diruetic used to treat heart failure?

Fluid retention is common in heart failure cases. A loop diuretic such as frusemide can cause massive diruesis which leads to a smaller blood volume. It can hence reduce pulmonary and peripheral edema. Since loop diruetics reduce the blood volume, the preload will also be reduced. This will lead to the workload of the failing heart being reduced.

Why does the drug ACTOS cause edema?

Actos activates the sodium tubules in the distal part of the kidney, making you more prone to salt and water retention. To combat this, take Actos at night before you go to bed. You body naturally diuresis at night, and this will help lower the incidence and severity of the edema. Also, cut down on the salt intake. If needed ask your doctor about a distal acting diuretic or potassium sparing diuretic, such as Lozal (Indapamide).
