A 48 y/o male is initiated on hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg PO Daily for newly diagnosed HTN. He will return to his PCP in 4 weeks for a check-up and blood work. In addition to BP, what monitoring parameters are indicated? A BMP (or CMP), HR or both?
Homework Answers
Hydrochlorothiazide is an effective antihypertensive drug whivh is called as a water pill. The main effect of it is by excreting the sodium via glomerular filtration process in th kidney acting as a diuretic and reducing the blood pressure.Taking this medication can lead to hyponatremia ,alteration in the electrolyte in general and there are side effects like irregular heart beat or arrhythmia,tachycardia or Bradycardia,confusion,music weakness
A Basic Metabolic Panel or Complete Metabolic Panel gives a clear description of all electrolytes (sodium,potassium, calcium,chloride)BUN ,Bicarbonate and blood glucose level.
So a BMP with HR will be indicated to the patient for monitoring. This will help to provide and calculate the maintainace dose for the patient .The test is done at 4 weeks.
