Amiloride is a'water' tablet(diuretic).
Amiloride is best taken in the morning.
Amiloride is used to treat or prevent
hypokalemia(low potassium levels in the blood).
Some"water pills" that increase potassium in the body include Amiloride(Midamor), spironolactone(Aldactone), and triamterene(Dyrenium).
Some"water pills" that increase magnesium in the body include Amiloride(Midamor), spironolactone(Aldactone), and triamterene(Dyrenium).
Amiloride can be prescribed as a treatment on its own, or alongside other diuretics.
However, Amiloride has recently been shown to be a successful treatment for this condition.
Because Amiloride is a potassium-conserving diuretic,
you should try to avoid things with a high potassium content, such as'salt substitutes'.
Amiloride is called a potassium-sparing diuretic because,
unlike some other diuretics, it does not cause your body to lose potassium.
If you forget to take a dose of Amiloride, take it when you remember unless it is late in the day.
Lithium-induced nephrogenic DI
may be effectively managed with the administration of Amiloride, a potassium-sparing diuretic often used in conjunction with thiazide
or loop diuretics.
