Abstract
The potassium-sparing diuretic, amiloride, reduced the fractional excretion of magnesium in anaesthetized rats. Alterations in glomerular filtration rate (GFR), the filtered load of magnesium, arterial blood pressure, the status of the extracellular fluid volume, plasma aldosterone concentration and acid-base balance were not involved. It was concluded that amiloride exerted a magnesium-sparing effect by a direct renal action.Entities:
