20-September-2008 09:55:46 - Aldosterone antagonist Skeletal formulae of the aldosterone antagonists Skeletal formulae of the aldosterone antagonists Aldosterone antagonist refers to drugs which antagonise the action of aldosterone at mineralocorticoid receptors. This group of drugs is often used as adjunctive therapy, in combination with other drugs, for the management of chronic heart failure. Spironolactone, the first member of the class, is also used in the management of hyperaldosteronism including Conn's syndrome and female hirsutism. Contents 1 Mode of action 2 Examples 3 See also 4 References 5 External links Mode of action Aldosterone antagonists are, as the name suggests, receptor antagonists at the mineralocorticoid receptor. Antagonism of these receptors inhibits sodium resorption in the collecting duct of the nephron in the kidneys. This interferes with sodium/potassium exchange, reducing urinary potassium excretion and weakly increasing water excretion diuresis. 1 Their adjunctive use in congestive heart failure relates to their additive diuretic effect in combination with other drugs, reducing edema and decreasing the cardiac workload. Examples Members of this class in clinical use include: Spironolactone Eplerenone Canrenone See also Potassium-sparing diuretic ATC code C03#C03DA Aldosterone antagonists References ^ Rossi S, or.
