Summary

Thiazide diuretics are well-known to help with edema and hypertension.

Thiazides need to monitored for electrolyte imbalances. Hypokalemia is a real and significant possibility.

Thiazide diuretics can also raise uric acid which can impact our patients with gout. Pay attention to use in this patient population.

I also cover drug interactions and the mechanism of action of thiazide diuretics on this episode.

Hey, all, Eric Christensen here from the Real Life Pharmacology podcast.

Very, very excited. This is a special episode today.

0:10.3

Got a couple of reasons we're coming on.

0:13.1

However, the special announcement today is similar to that book. I've kind of doubled down and

1:13.9

created a book that's basically pretty close to twice as long as that original pharmacotherapy book
