Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits the reabsorption of Na and chloride in the distal tubules causing increased excretion of Na and water K and hydrogen ions. Triamterene is a potassium sparing diuretic which appears to act mainly on the distal renal tubules. It increases the excretion of Na and reduces the excretion of potassium. It adds to the natriuretic but reduces the kaliuretic effects of other diuretics. It is structurally similar to folate and has anti-folate activity.
May enhance toxicity of digitalis glycosides, neuromuscular-blocking action of competitive muscle relaxants, effect of antihypertensives. Increased risk of postural hypotension w/ alcohol, barbiturates, opioids. K-depleting effect enhanced by corticosteroids, lithium, ACTH, carbenoxolone.
