Piretanide (HOE 118) in dogs

W V Lumb, J Seegmiller, R J Scott

    American Journal of Veterinary Research
    |September 1, 1982
    PubMed
    Summary

    Piretanide, a potent loop diuretic, effectively increased urine output and electrolyte excretion in Beagles. Close monitoring for hypokalemia is advised due to potential decreases in serum potassium levels.

    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Nephrology
    • Veterinary Medicine

    Background:

    • Loop diuretics are essential in managing fluid balance.
    • Piretanide is a potent loop diuretic with established efficacy.
    • Understanding its pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profile is crucial for clinical application.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the diuretic and electrolyte excretion effects of Piretanide.
    • To compare oral versus intravenous administration of Piretanide.
    • To assess the safety profile of Piretanide in healthy Beagles.

    Main Methods:

    • Administration of Piretanide orally and intravenously to healthy Beagles at three dose levels.
    • Measurement of urine output, osmolality, specific gravity, and electrolyte concentrations over an 8-hour period.
    • Monitoring of hematologic values and serum potassium levels.

    Main Results:

    • Piretanide induced significant diuresis with increased Na+, Cl-, and K+ excretion.
    • Urine osmolality and specific gravity decreased significantly.
    • Serum potassium levels decreased with higher doses, indicating a risk of hypokalemia.

    Conclusions:

    • Piretanide is a potent diuretic agent.
    • Both oral and IV administration are effective.
    • Clinical use requires monitoring for hypokalemia, especially at higher doses.
