Poisoning: carbonic-anhydrase inhibitors, benzothiadiazides and other diuretics - what does this mean
Poisoning from carbonic-anhydrase inhibitors, benzothiadiazides and other diuretics occurs when these medications are taken in excessive amounts or when they are taken in combination with other medications that increase their effects. symptoms of poisoning can include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, confusion, and difficulty breathing. treatment usually involves supportive care, such as iv fluids, oxygen, and medications to reduce symptoms.
What happens during the disease - poisoning: carbonic-anhydrase inhibitors, benzothiadiazides and other diuretics
The pathogenesis of poisoning due to carbonic-anhydrase inhibitors, benzothiadiazides and other diuretics is due to the inhibition of the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, which is involved in the regulation of the acid-base balance in the body. this leads to an increase in the ph of the blood, resulting in an increased excretion of electrolytes, water, and other substances in the urine, leading to dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, and other symptoms of poisoning.
