Diuretics

Moustafa K.Soltan

Diuretic
is substance that increases the urine excretion by kidney so decrease body fluids
mainly the extracellular fluids.
*the functional unit in the kidney is the nephron and each kidney has about one
million nephron.
*To increase water excretion, a diuretic has to increase Na+ secretion from blood
to nephron lumen, Or decrease Na+ reabsorption from lumen to blood.
*Natriuretic is substance increase Na+ excretion,
Saliuretic is substance increase Na+ and Cl- excretion,
Kaliuretic is substance increase K+ excretion.
General used of diuretics:
1)treatment of all types of edema associated with congestive heart failure, liver
dysfunction or cirrhosis,
Renal failure and during pregnancy.
2)used in treatment of hypertension either alone if hypertension is mild or in
combination with antihypertensive drug if severe hypertension.

MOA:
it inhibit Na+ reabsorption in ascending loop of Henle, and in distal tubule and
commonly called
( Loop diuretic ), thus increase also Cl- excretion so cause systemic alkalosis.
Uses:
used in refractory edema.

***Assay: 1) for ethylene diamine: dissolve in water and then titrate with
standard acid and methyl orange indicator.
2) for theophylline: to the above neutral solution add Kn xss of
AgNO3, which pricipitate theophylline as insoluble silver salt
liberate equivalent amount of HNO3 titrated with st base,
indicator , or determine residual AgNO3 by st SCN-, ferric alum

aminophylline used as diuretic and bronchodilator

Sulphonamides.
1-Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors
General mechanism of action: they act mainly in proximal tubules.
they have SONH2 group which is structurally similar to carbonic acid so inhibit
carbonic anhydrase enzyme which catalyze the following process:
H2O + CO2

carbonic anhydrase

H2CO3

HCO3 + H+ enter to the tubular urine while Na+


enter the cell ( Na+ / H+ exchange)

When carbonic anhydrase is inhibited, the H+ conc. is decreased what will


decrease Na+ / H+ exchange,
Increasing Na+ excretion, decreasing its reabsorption so cause diuresis.
*** It decrease H+excretion so cause systemic acidosis that make inhibitors of
carbonic anhydrase ineffective,
So drug administration should be stopped till acid-base balance is returned.

Dichlorophenamide

Uses.1)reduces intraocular pressure so useful in treatment of glaucoma.


2) diuretic but less useful than other agents why?
(***) acetazolamide just used
for 2-3 days as after this it becomes ineffective due to compensatory mechanism
of
the kidney to overcome
systemic acidosis results
from the drug that must be stopped till acid base
balance is returned.

SAR of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors:


1) the amino group in the SO2NH2 group should be primary and free,
substitution of one or the two sulfonamide hydrogens will abolishes
activity.
2) aromatic sulfonamides are more active than aliphatic ones.
3) 1,3,4-thiadiazolesulfonamides are 100 times as active as sulfanilamide,
ex acetazolamide.
4) methylation of acetazolamide leads to methazolamide has the same
activity as acetazolamide.
5) p-carboxybenzenesulfonamide is several times more active than
sulfanilamide.
6) introduction of another SO2NH2 group will increase activity, addition of
another Cl atom will increase potency
as in dichlorophenamide.
7) if acyl group is removed from the nitrogen atom, activity is decreased.
8) highly ionized agents are more firmly bound to carbonic anhydrase
enzyme so have more diuretic activity

MOA:
Inhibit Na+ reabsorption in proximal tubule and ascending loop of Henle what
cause diuresis.
They have SO2NH2 so has certain degree of carbonic anhydrase inhibition
SAR: 1) Cl, F, CF3 in the position 6 activates the nucleus.
2) substitution on the position 5 or 8 reduces the activity.
3) free sulfamoyl group is essential for activity, removal or replacement of
one of the two hydrogens of sulfamoyl group by methyl group abolishes activity
4) free sulfamoyl group in position 7 is equal in activity to that in position
5, if in position 6 it will reduce the activity

5) substitution of ring nitrogens in position 2 or 4 will reduce the activity, but if


by lower alkyl group as methyl in the position 2, it will enhance the activity.
6) saturation of the double bond in the position 3-4 give 10 fold increase in the
activity as in hydrochlorothiazide.
7) substitution in the position 3 by hydrophobic group like alkyl, cycloalkyl,
haloalkyl and aralkyl will increase the activity, hydrogen is essential for
activity.

**Assay: non aqueous titration as weak acid.
***MOA: highly effective saliuretic agent that has rapid diuresis in short duration of action (6-8) hours,
it acts as loop diuretic, inhibit Na+ reabsorption in loop of Henle, it promotes K+ excretion also, so it is
used with potassium supplements or pot. sparing diuretics to avoid hypokalemia.

Steroidal diuretics: Spironolactone


(STEROIDAL POTASSIUM SPARING DIURETICS)

MOA:
aldosterone stimulate Na+ reabsorption and K+ excretion so cause hypokalemia
and decrease diuresis,
Spironolactone antagonize the effects of aldosterone in the collecting duct so as
to decrease Na+ rabsorption and also decrease K+ excretion so called potassium
sparing diuretic and it has steroidal structure.
** spironolactone is metabolized to an active metabolite which is canrenone.

MOA:1) act in the late distal convoluted tubule and in the early collecting duct.
2)It exerts the same action of spironolactone but without any relation to the
aldosterone.
3) it is really mild natriuretic, saliuretic and antikaliuretic.
Uses: 1) mild edema associated with congestive heart failure or liver cirrhosis.
2)not enough alone in treatment of hypertension.
3) mainly used with hydrochlorothiazide to prevent associated hypokalemia of
the latter.
