Hyperkalemia Drugs That Cause Hypokalemia (Low Potassium) These drugs increase potassium loss from the kidneys or shift potassium into cells: Diuretics (most common cause): Loop diuretics: Furosemide, Torsemide Thiazide diuretics: Hydrochlorothiazide, Chlorthalidone Corticosteroids: Prednisolone, Dexamethasone (mineralocorticoid effect) Beta-2 Agonists: Salbutamol (Albuterol), Terbutaline Insulin (in high doses): Drives potassium into cells Amphotericin B High-dose Penicillins (e.g., Carbenicillin, Piperacillin) act as non-reabsorbable anions Theophylline Laxative abuse / diarrhea-causing drugs Clinical signs: Muscle weakness, cramps, arrhythmias (e.g., U-waves on ECG) Drugs That Cause Hyperkalemia (High Potassium) These drugs reduce potassium excretion or increase potassium retention: Potassium-sparing diuretics: Spironolactone, Eplerenone (Aldosterone antagonists) Amiloride, Triamterene ACE Inhibitors: Enalapril, Ramipril, Lisinopril ARBs: Losartan, Telmisartan, Valsartan Direct Renin Inhibitor: Aliskiren NSAIDs: Indomethacin, Ibuprofen (reduce renal perfusion) Heparin (including low molecular weight) Trimethoprim Beta-blockers (especially non-selective): Propranolol Digoxin (in toxicity) Cyclosporine, Tacrolimus Clinical signs: Peaked T-waves, muscle weakness, risk of cardiac arrest Key Tip for Memory | Potassium (Hypo) Think Diuretics & -Agonists | Potassium (Hyper) Think RAAS Blockers & K-Sparing Drugs | To view or add a comment, sign in WHY NASAL DELIVERY OF GLP-1 PEPTIDES? In contrast to the oral and subcutaneous routes of administration, nasal delivery of GLP-1 peptide drugs provides unique advantages: The nasal mucosal environment is less acidic, less digestive, and simpler to use than the oral delivery route
Crosstalk between immune cells, the enteric nervous system, L-cells, and other enteroendocrine subtypes is an area of physiology ripe for discovery

Excess levels of uric acid, or hyperuricemia, appear to be the main cause of gout, says Sophia Kamveris, MS, RD, LDN, a Boston-based nutritionist and author of the 28-Day Gout Diet Plan
This unique mechanism of action is what has researchers excited, as it may address some of the underlying neurological impacts of alcoholism, potentially improving both mental health and recovery outcomes
