Ginseng-Induced Diuretic Resistance

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1996
To the Editor. —Germanium, an ingredient in many ginseng preparations and over-the-counter nutritional supplements, has been associated with chronic renal failure. 1-3 To date, germanium-related acute adverse renal effects have not been reported. We describe a patient who became refractory to diuretics while ingesting germanium-containing ginseng. The

Diuretic Resistance: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies

Cardiology, 1994
The mechanism(s) responsible for diuretic resistance differ in different clinical conditions. Renal insufficiency is a prototype of a pharmacokinetic mechanism wherein the disease causes decreased delivery of diuretic to its urinary site of action.

[Resistance to diuretics].

Schweizerische medizinische Wochenschrift, 1987
Resistance to diuretics may be due to disorders of renal sodium excretion as well as altered pharmacodynamics or -kinetics of the diuretic used. After consideration of some of the factors responsible for diminished natriuresis, some typical clinical examples are discussed.

The Physiologic Basis of Diuretic Synergism: Its Role in Treating Diuretic Resistance

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1991
Diuretic drugs usually improve edema when used judiciously. Some patients, however, become resistant to their effects. Diuretic resistance may result from dietary indiscretion, poor compliance, impaired bioavailability, imparied diuretic secretion into the lumen of the renal tubule, or because other drugs interfere with diuretic activity.

Editor’s Choice-Diuretic resistance in acute heart failure

European Heart Journal: Acute Cardiovascular Care, 2018
Diuretic resistance is a powerful predictor of adverse outcome in acute heart failure (AHF), irrespectively of underlying glomerular filtration rate. Metrics of diuretic efficacy such as natriuresis, urine output, weight loss, net fluid balance, or fractional sodium excretion, differ in their risk for measurement error, convenience, and biological ...

Diuretic Resistance and Chronic Heart Failure

2019
Diuretic resistance is a predictor of adverse outcome in acute and chronic heart failure. Failure of loop diuretic treatment to maintain euvolemia can precipitate acute decompensation of heart failure and hospitalization or emergency treatment. Diuretic resistance can develop because of multiple mechanisms leading to progressive volume overload and ...

[Resistance to diuretic therapy].

Vnitrni lekarstvi, 1994
Sequential nephron blockade--the combination of several diuretic agents which inhibit sodium reabsorption at different nephron sites simultaneously--is an effective, but potentially dangerous means of treating resistant edema. Several drug combinations have been used successfully, especially they have included a loop diuretic (furosemide in most cases)

[Etiology and treatment of diuretic resistance].

Wiener medizinische Wochenschrift (1946), 1997
Basically the cause of the resistance to diuretics can be found out. Essential is a detailed knowledge of the physiology and pathophysiology of volume regulation as well as renal water and electrolyte excretion. To get diagnostic and therapeutic access to diuretic resistance main efforts have to be put into the work up of current diagnostics and ...
