Aldosterone antagonist. An antimineralocorticoid mcra or an aldosterone antagonist is a diuretic drug which antagonizes the action of aldosterone at mineralocorticoid receptors. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of aldosterone antagonist therapy in reducing cardiovascular mortality aborted cardiac arrest and heart. This refers to benign adenomas of the adrenal cortex which secrete the sodium retaining hormone aldosterone and are present in 23 of patients with hypertension. Mechanisms of diuretic drugs.
Diuretic drugs increase urine output by the kidney ie promote diuresis. This is accomplished by altering how the kidney handles sodium. Angiotensin is a peptide hormone that causes vasoconstriction and an increase in blood pressure. It is part of the reninangiotensin system which regulates blood.
Hyperkalemia induced by aldosterone antagonists. As previously discussed aldosterone acts in the renal cortical collecting ducts by inducing synthesis of proteins. Heart failure develops when the heart via an abnormality of cardiac function detectable or not fails to pump blood at a rate commensurate with the requirements of.
