Overview:

Torsemide
(when available)

Pharmacology and use:
Torsemide, a monosulfonamyl loop diuretic, differs form other thiazide diuretics in that a double ring system is incorporated into its structure. Torsemide is used alone or with atenolol in the management of hypertension and edema. It inhibits reabsorption of sodium and chloride in the luminal membrane of the ascending limb of the loop of Henle by interfering with the chloride binding site of the 1Na+, 1K+, 2Cl-; cotransport system. This increases the rate of delivery of tubular fluid and electrolytes to the distal sites of hydrogen and potassium ion secretion, while plasma volume contraction increases aldosterone production. The increased delivery and high aldosterone levels promote sodium reabsorption at the distal tubules, thus increasing the loss of potassium and hydrogen ions. Torsemide's effects in other portions of the nephron have not been demonstrated. Antihypertensive - Diuretics lower blood pressure initially by reducing plasma and extracellular fluid volume; cardiac output also decreases. Eventually, cardiac output returns to normal with an accompanying decrease in peripheral resistance. For the treatment of hypertension, edema induced by congestive heart failure or renal disease and ascites assocated with hepatic disease

Mechanism Of Action:
Torasemide acts on the Na+/K+/2Cl- co-transporter. Torsemide inhibits sodium ion transport across the renal tubular epithelium in the cortical diluting segment of the ascending limb of the loop of Henle. By increasing the delivery of sodium to the distal renal tubule, Torsemide indirectly increases potassium excretion via the sodium-potassium exchange mechanism.
