Click Here to Print Topic Help File,.pdf (Internet Access is Required for this Feature) Definitions Renal System Composed of the kidneys and represents a major route to eliminate drugs Produces hormones and regulates body fluid and electrolyte balance Gout A disease characterized by overproduction or insufficient elimination of uric acid within the body that will crystallize in the joints and cause pain and inflammation. Electrolytes Salts which are dissolved in body fluids and are necessary in proper concentration to maintain normal body functions Replacement of depleted salts Stomach upset Constipation Diarrhea Ammonium Bicarbonate Calcium Chloride p3

4 Magnesium Phosphate Potassium Sodium Therapeutic Classes Diuretics Congestive heart failure Hypertension Fluid retention Alter the body's electrolyte pattern by prohibiting or enhancing excretion of electrolytes. NOTE: Most diuretics increase potassium excretion. This can be corrected by eating high-potassium foods (bananas, orange juice), or taking a potassium sparing diuretic. Thiazide and Related Diuretics Reduce blood pressure Causes kidney to secrete more, decreases water retention, decreased blood pressure Increased urination Weakness Muscle cramps Stomach upset Dizziness p4
