Ans) Potassium-sparing diuretics are diuretic drugs that do not promote the secretion of potassium into the urine. They are used as adjunctive therapy, together with other drugs, in the treatment of hypertension and management of congestive heart failure.
- Amiloride, spironolactone, and triamterene are indicated as adjuncts in the management of edematous states, especially when a potassium-sparing diuretic effect is desired.
Heart Failure and medication management:
- Medical care for heart failure includes a number of nonpharmacologic, pharmacologic, and invasive strategies to limit and reverse its manifestations. Depending on the severity of the illness, nonpharmacologic therapies include dietary sodium and fluid restriction; physical activity as appropriate; and attention to weight gain. Pharmacologic therapies include the use of diuretics, vasodilators, inotropic agents, anticoagulants, beta-blockers, and digoxin.
- Invasive therapies for heart failure include electrophysiologic intervention such as cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), pacemakers, and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs); revascularization procedures such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI); valve replacement or repair; and ventricular restoration.

Mr. John Jones has been prescribed Digoxin (Lanoxin) 0.125 mg for heart failure. You are developing a teaching plan for the patient taking this medication. Check all the apply in relation to taking Digoxin. Monitor for bradycardia by checking the heart rate before taking this medication. Digoxin increases the force of contraction of the heart muscle. Sodium is an important electrolyte to monitor when taking digoxin. Digoxin can be given in an extended-release form. Symptoms of Digoxin toxicity include anorexia,...
