Yes, indapamide is a diuretic. It belongs to the thiazide-like class of diuretics and is primarily used to treat hypertension and edema. Indapamide works by inhibiting sodium reabsorption in the kidneys, leading to increased urine output and reduced blood pressure.
Some of the common side effects of Indapamide are dry mouth, irregular heartbeat, and a weak pulse. Also on the list are an increase in being thirsty, muscle cramps, and mood changes. This is only a partial list. Call your doctor as soon as possible if you experience any of these symptoms after taking Indapamide.
The Harmones which participate in the formation of urine are ANTI DIRUETIC HARMONE(ADH)
Antibiotics and antiinflammatories possibly a diruetic but you would need to talk to a veterinarian.
Yes, indapamide, a diuretic commonly used to treat high blood pressure and edema, can potentially cause tinnitus, which may manifest as a buzzing sensation in the ears. While this side effect is not very common, it has been reported in some patients. If you experience any unusual ear sensations while taking indapamide, it's important to consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.
Indapamide is a thiazide-like diuretic primarily used to treat hypertension and edema associated with heart failure. While it generally reduces fluid retention, in some cases, it may paradoxically cause or worsen edema, particularly in patients with certain underlying conditions or when used inappropriately. This is more likely to occur if the diuretic effect is not sufficient to counteract fluid overload. If edema occurs while taking indapamide, it is essential to consult a healthcare provider.
No, the combination in Preterax (indapamide and perindopril) is not available in one formulation (that I can find); however, each of these can be prescribed individually.
category B (chlorothiazide, chlorthalidone, hydrochlorothiazide, indapamide, metolazone) or category C (bendroflumethiazide, benzthiazide, hydroflumethiazide, methyclothiazide, trichlormethiazide).
There are 12 thiazide diuretics marketed in the United States, including hydrochlorothiazide (Hydrodiuril, Esidrex), indapamide (Lozol), polythiazide (Renese), and hydroflumethiazide (Diucardin).
What medications cause a salty taste in the mouth? My doc put me on Indapamide, which is a diuretic. I developed a terrible salty mouth and had to stop it.
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.
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.
One of the side effects [rare?] of this drug is listed as more frequent or larger amount of urine passing. I noticed this on first use and will see if it persists as an ongoing problem, or not. Definitely as strong as a normal diuretic drug- for me.
