Dealing With Diuretics | NurseInTheMaking | NCLEX Pharmacology | Registered Nurse

[@angela2366]

31 yr LPN here, returning to nursing school with the end goal of DNP (Lord Willing). My brain doesn't seem to learn as much or as easily as it used to when I first went to LPN school. Your teaching and memory tricks are a LIFE SAVER! You have such a gift for putting the puzzle together to make it very easy to understand and to see how the components work in synchrony. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR GIFT WITH ALL OF US!!

[@NurseInTheMaking]

I am so happy to hear that my tips and tricks are helping you study! 💛 I truly love being able to share all that I've learned with others. I wish you all the best in your nursing school journey. You got this! 🙌

[@geniesunflower12]

Nothing is above you! I am also planning to go back after 18 years of Lpn. It’s time to go my dear. We can do this ❤

[@angela2366]

@@geniesunflower12 YES!! YOU GOT IT! I'm happy to be your support whenever you go. Keep my information. I should graduate in December for my RN then I'll keep going as long as I can. You can too! :)

[@HairByTiffianyJ]

I feel seen! I’m 38, studying for the NCLEX. I have definitely been struggling to find something that will make the information stick. I realized that this isn’t the same brain from 10 years ago. I’ve just started using her tools, and I can already feel the lightbulb coming on! So glad I found it ❤

[@auroraautumn8764]

[@Paris4926]

How can you give a kidney pt on dialysis a diuretic if they can't void? Is it just to lower the K levels until they receive dialysis?

[@NurseInTheMaking]

Thank you so much for your question! Diuretics are used to manage heart failure, edema, blood pressure, and chronic kidney disease. These medications may be given for multiple different reasons to patients. An example of this is that potassium wasting diuretics can be administered to patients with chronic kidney disease to manage blood pressure and to decrease potassium levels.

[@seemaramdhanie1925]

Thanks, Kristine you make learning so easy for everyone you are a great teacher keep it up

[@NurseInTheMaking]

Awe, thank you so much for your kind words! I am happy to help 💛

[@Daakie9362]

Which IV fluid is best or suitable for diluting potassium before administering

[@NurseInTheMaking]

Oftentimes, this will come from the pharmacy with 0.9% sodium chloride. But, the pharmacy will have this mixed for you and ready to infuse in the hospital setting. I hope this helps answer your question!

[@cursedenchantress9231]

Perfect timing, I have pharm exam this week that includes the renal system

Can I use both Loop and sparing diuretics in congested heart failure patient

[@anumolgeorgeanumolgeorge2817]

Very helpful 🎉

[@fredricmontana5420]

Hospitals in Denmark does not follow up on side effects and weight when using diuretics. I almost died from kidney failure from 3 months use on Furosemide. Have permanent damage now and suffer from kidney dissease because of that. Medicine should only be used when there is no other option, and patients should be informed much more about the effects and side effects of medicine in general. And most medicine should only be used shortly if possible.

[@joaquindiaz3019]

Love sooo much your work, it help me a looott, thank u

[@tallulahstone9600]

3- Potassium

[@J-gritty]

Experiencing edema as I type, I went to the hospital and they told me my blood work was negative my pressure was okay . But I know my diet is a little off, and I've been going to the gym forever. I'm a bus driver and I sit for hours on end. So can there be anything else I can do?

[@NurseInTheMaking]

Thank you for your question! Unfortunately, I wouldn't be in the position to give medical advice on something like this; I would definitely refer you to your doctor. I'm sorry. I wish I could be more helpful. I hope you get the help you need! 💛

Potassium 5.3

Thank you so much for your time 🤍🤍

[@olanrewajurukayatolabisi7485]

The nurse should check the potassium level because it is high which can cause hyperkalemia

Heyyy. Can you do respiratory pharmacology pleaseeeee😊

[@arelybiera7651]

❤❤❤

[@aamerbughio3920]

Nice Mem❤

[@Anonymous-xs4ul]

Can I ask a question

[@Anonymous-xs4ul]

So we use loop and thiazide in treatment of hypertension also they get red of potassium And in our health education section we advise the patient to increase their potassium intake ? So the best Diuretic type of hypertension theoretically is potassium sparing type ?????

[@NurseInTheMaking]

@@Anonymous-xs4ul Thanks for your question! In addition to loop and thiazide, other classes of diuretics can be used to manage hypertension. The HCP will order which medication will best manage the patient's hypertension based on an overall assessment and review of all disease processes and the patient's current state of wellness. I hope this helps clarify this information for you!

Thankyou so much 💖 Very Informative 💯 I have also started my new youtube Pharmacology learning channel💊💯 Would you give me your guidence & support

[@alexsmith3598]

Ugh, but why does Potassium 5.3 need to be reported if Spironolactone prevents reabsorption of the low Sodium and has no effect on Potassium? Sure, it should be reported, but how does low sodium still indicate giving a sodium wasting medication? Sodium is also extremely precise before causing neurologic symptoms. This stuff never makes any sense. Answers just feel randomized.

[@NurseInTheMaking]

Hi there! Spironolactone is a potassium-sparing diuretic, which means the body holds on to or keeps potassium. A potassium level of 5.3 is considered elevated, and if the body is holding on to more potassium due to the use of spironolactone instead of wasting (or getting rid of it), the potassium level could continue to increase.
