Edema is a common symptom of heart, liver, and kidney diseases. Although the causes of the disease are different, they are all caused by the increase of intercellular fluid, and sodium retention is the main factor for the increase of intercellular fluid. Diuretics can reduce or eliminate edema, which can not only alleviate the symptoms of the original disease, but also promote the improvement of the original disease. 2. Diuresis and blood pressure reduction: Due to the effect of sodium excretion and diuresis, blood volume is reduced, cardiac output is reduced, the amount of blood and the pressure in the arteries are reduced, thereby lowering blood pressure. 3. Diuretics and cardiotonic drugs. It is generally believed that all patients with heart failure must use diuretics, because the effects of diuretics in heart failure are comparable to those of cardiotonic drugs. Diuretics can increase the excretion of water and sodium, reduce blood volume, reduce the burden on the heart, and indirectly play a cardiotonic role. They are commonly used drugs for the treatment of chronic congestive heart failure. 4. Diuretic and detoxification: In case of acute poisoning due to certain drugs such as sleeping pills, alkaloids or heavy metal salts (mercury, arsenic), snake bites, etc., the use of diuretics can accelerate the excretion of poisons and prevent the occurrence of acute renal failure. |
