Hypokalemia, glucose intolerance, and hyperinsulinemia during diuretic therapy.
Hypokalemia and glucose intolerance may result from diuretic therapy. Increases in plasma insulin and glucose levels have been observed in thiazide-treated hypertensive patients and have been attributed to a diminished insulin sensitivity induced by diuretic therapy. To investigate the effects of hypokalemia on glucose tolerance and insulin secretion, we studied 21 essential and nine diabetic h...
متن کاملCritique of the clinical importance of diuretic-induced hypokalemia and elevated cholesterol levels.
0 ne of the disappointing conclusions of the antihypertensive drug trials is that, while most morbid events were prevented by treatment, the incidence of death from coronary heart disease (CHD) was not significantly reduced. As originally emphasized in the Veterans Administration trial’ and in most subsequent trials, treatment has not resulted in a significant reduction in myocardial infarction...
متن کاملDiuretic-induced hypokalemia in uncomplicated systemic hypertension: effect of plasma potassium correction on cardiac arrhythmias.
Sixteen patients with diuretic-induced hypokalemia underwent 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring during and after correction of hypokalemia. Plasma potassium averaged 2.83 +/- 0.08 mEq/liter before and 3.73 +/- 0.06 mEq/liter after correction with potassium chloride, triamterene or both. Premature atrial contractions decreased in 6 patients, increased in 6 and remained unchanged ...
متن کاملHypokalemia and ST Elevation Induced by Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blocker and Thiazide Diuretic Combination
The combination of an angiotensin II type 1 receptor blocker (valsartan) and a thiazide diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide) has been evaluated in the treatment of patients with hypertension in several clinical trials. The valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide (VAL-HCT) combination was found to be generally more effective than either drug given alone. The incidence of adverse events in VAL-HCT recipients was...
متن کاملRitodrine-Induced Hypokalemia
A 31-year-old woman presented with chest discomfort in the 22nd week of pregnancy. She had been treated with an intravenous infusion of ritodrine hydrochloride (0.25 mg/min) for preterm labor the prior day. On physical examination, the body temperature was 36.3°C, the blood pressure was 117/68 mmHg, the pulse was 96 beats/min, and the respiratory rate was 20 breaths/min. Electrocardiography (EC...
