Diuretics are a top NCLEX® pharmacology topic because they change fluid status and electrolytes fast. In this lecture, we explains how diuretics work, what to monitor, and the safety teaching that shows up in questions.

What you will learn
• Why diuretics increase urine output, sodium out and water follows
• The three big risks, dehydration, electrolyte changes, and frequent urination
• Safety teaching, take diuretics in the morning and change positions slowly to prevent falls
• Potassium wasting diuretics, thiazides and loops, plus hypokalemia warning signs
• Thiazides, hydrochlorothiazide, lab monitoring, potassium foods, and increased blood glucose risk
• Loop diuretics, furosemide, bumetanide, torsemide, hypokalemia and kidney function monitoring
• Ototoxicity risk with IV furosemide and why IV push must be slow
• Potassium sparing diuretics, spironolactone and triamterene, hyperkalemia red flags
• What to avoid with potassium sparing meds, high potassium foods, salt substitutes, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, supplements
• Which clients need extra caution, especially renal failure
