Comparison of loop diuretics in patients with chronic renal insufficiency

Abstract: Furosemide and bumetanide share a number of characteristics including reduced natriuretic effects in azotemic patients. It has been presumed that this condition affects each drug equally. Previous studies, however, suggest dissimilar pathways of delivery to their sites of action. Though not rigorously tested, this potential disparity might cause them to differ when used in azotemia. We, therefore, assessed the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of intravenously administered furosemide and bume… Show more

“…However, like in decompensated cirrhotic patients 14,15 the urinary furosemide excretion rate, as well as the urinary recovery of furosemide were significantly decreased. The mechanisms behind the decreased renal excretion rate of furosemide during severe cirrhosis with ascites are not fully known, but an increased volume of distribution 26 and competitive inhibition of the secretion of furosemide in the proximal tubules 15 may be involved. Another mechanism involved in the resistance to furosmide could be hyperreabsorption of sodium in tubular segments distal to the TAL due to increased plasma levels of aldosterone.…”

“…Halveringstiden er en time, og den øker bare i liten grad ved lav glomerulaer filtrasjonsrate. Dette forklarer at forholdet mellom ekvipotente doser furosemid og bumetanid endres fra 40 : 1 hos nyrefriske til 20 : 1 der det er alvorlig nyresvikt (9).…”

“…Økt dose og dermed høyere serumnivå av diuretikum kan kompensere for dette. Ved GFR 15 ml/min/ 1,73 m 2 utløses maksimal respons med 160 -200 mg furosemid eller 4 -5 mg bumetanid intravenøst (9). Tiaziddosen må på samme måte økes for å oppnå effektiv konsentrasjon i urinen ved nedsatt glomerulaer filtrasjonsrate.…”
