University of Cincinnati UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI DATE: October 19, 2002 I, Ehab Hamed , hereby submit this as part of the requirements for the degree of: Doctor of Philosophy in: Pharmaceutical Sciences/ Industrial Pharmacy It is entitled: Application and Evaluation of Extended Release Technology To Loop Diuretics Approved by: William Cacini, Ph.D. Pankaj Desai, Ph.D. Myron Gerson, M.D. Ronald Millard, Ph.D. Adel Sakr, Ph.D. APPLICATION AND EVALUATION OF EXTENDED RELEASE TECHNOLOGY TO LOOP DIURETICS A Dissertation submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (Ph.D.) in the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences of the College of Pharmacy 2002 by Ehab Ahmed Mamdouh Hamed B.Sc., Assiut University, Egypt, 1996 Committee Chair: Adel Sakr, Ph.D. Abstract Loop diuretics offer great advantages in treating edematous states associated with congestive heart failure, liver cirrhosis and kidney failure owing to their intense diuretic effect. Evidences suggested the diuretic effect can be exaggerated by careful control of the rate at which loop diuretics are made available to the urinary tubules. If optimally designed, peroral extended release formulation can provide better utilization of the same total dose of loop diuretic, an effect of utmost importance in edematous patients with high resistance to loop diuretics. Bumetanide multiparticulate immediate and extended release formulations were developed and tested in rabbits. A novel multiple response optimization technique based on superimposing contour diagrams was developed and successfully used to optimize bumetanide release. Instability in drug release from multiparticulate formulations after storage warrants in depth investigation of different formulation and processing factors controlling drug release. Curing time, temperature, plasticizer level, coating polymer lipophilicity, and the use of hydrophilic seal coat were explored in this study. The findings proved instability in bumetanide release is attributed to drug migration into the film coat during storage. Careful selection of plasticizer level and curing conditions together with the use of hydrophilic seal coat prevented drug migration and stabilized drug release after storage. When compared to immediate release formulation in rabbits, equivalent amounts of bumetanide were excreted from both formulations yet at different rates. The slow delivery of bumetanide from the extended release formulation improved its diuretic and natriuretic efficiencies within the first day after dosing. The activation of compensatory mechanisms is thought to diminish the response to extended release bumetanide formulation within the second day. While providing comparable diuretic and saliuretic effects to that of immediate release formulation, extended release bumetanide formulation can offer the advantage of avoiding the initial, unpleasant and intense diuretic effect experienced with immediate release formulations.

  • DIURETICS Diuretics Are Drugs That Promote the Output of Urine Excreted by the Kidneys
    DIURETICS Diuretics are drugs that promote the output of urine excreted by the Kidneys. The primary action of most diuretics is the direct inhibition of Na+ transport at one or more of the four major anatomical sites along the nephron, where Na+ reabsorption takes place. The increased excretion of water and electrolytes by the kidneys is dependent on three different processes viz., glomerular filtration, tubular reabsorption (active and passive) and tubular secretion. Diuretics are very effective in the treatment of Cardiac oedema, specifically the one related with congestive heart failure. They are employed extensively in various types of disorders, for example, nephritic syndrome, diabetes insipidus, nutritional oedema, cirrhosis of the liver, hypertension, oedema of pregnancy and also to lower intraocular and cerebrospinal fluid pressure. Therapeutic Uses of Diuretics i) Congestive Heart Failure: The choice of the diuretic would depend on the severity of the disorder. In an emergency like acute pulmonary oedema, intravenous Furosemide or Sodium ethacrynate may be given. In less severe cases. Hydrochlorothiazide or Chlorthalidone may be used. Potassium-sparing diuretics like Spironolactone or Triamterene may be added to thiazide therapy. ii) Essential hypertension: The thiazides usually sever as primary antihypertensive agents. They may be used as sole agents in patients with mild hypertension or combined with other antihypertensives in more severe cases. iii) Hepatic cirrhosis: Potassium-sparing diuretics like Spironolactone may be employed. If Spironolactone alone fails, then a thiazide diuretic can be added cautiously. Furosemide or Ethacrymnic acid may have to be used if the oedema is regractory, together with spironolactone to lessen potassium loss. Serum potassium levels should be monitored periodically.

Received, April 10, 2019; Revised, May 6, 2019; Accepted, June 12 2019; Published, June 13, 2019. ABSTRACT - Purpose: We aimed to comprehensively evaluate the curative effect of torasemide, tolvaptan, furosemide and azosemide on patients with heart failure. Methods: Relevant studies were retrieved by searching the electronic databases until May 2018. Quality assessment and data extraction of selected studies were evaluated by two reviewers. Heterogeneity across studies was assessed utilizing the I2 statistic and Q- test, and appropriate effect model was selected to calculate the pooled effect size. Network meta-analysis was conducted and the convergence degree of model was evaluated. Results: A total of 12 studies were enrolled in this study. Significant heterogeneity was not identified across the studies. Significantly greater differences were found in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) for furosemide VS. azosemide, in brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) for furosemide VS. azosemide and furosemide VS. torasemide, and in adverse effects for furosemide VS. torasemide through Meta-analysis of direct comparison. In addition, network meta-analysis results suggested there were no significant differences in adverse effects, mortality, BNP and LVEF among these groups. However, the relatively low mortality and small improvement of BNP and LVEF were found in HF patients treated with torasemide.

  • Azosemide Is More Potent Than Bumetanide and Various Other Loop
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Azosemide is more potent than bumetanide and various other loop diuretics to inhibit the sodium- Received: 21 November 2017 Accepted: 14 June 2018 potassium-chloride-cotransporter Published: xx xx xxxx human variants hNKCC1A and hNKCC1B Philip Hampel 1,2, Kerstin Römermann1, Nanna MacAulay 3 & Wolfgang Löscher1,2 The Na+–K+–2Cl− cotransporter NKCC1 plays a role in neuronal Cl− homeostasis secretion and represents a target for brain pathologies with altered NKCC1 function. Two main variants of NKCC1 have been identifed: a full-length NKCC1 transcript (NKCC1A) and a shorter splice variant (NKCC1B) that is particularly enriched in the brain. The loop diuretic bumetanide is often used to inhibit NKCC1 in brain disorders, but only poorly crosses the blood-brain barrier. We determined the sensitivity of the two human NKCC1 splice variants to bumetanide and various other chemically diverse loop diuretics, using the Xenopus oocyte heterologous expression system. Azosemide was the most potent NKCC1 inhibitor (IC50s 0.246 µM for hNKCC1A and 0.197 µM for NKCC1B), being about 4-times more potent than bumetanide. Structurally, a carboxylic group as in bumetanide was not a prerequisite for potent NKCC1 inhibition, whereas loop diuretics without a sulfonamide group were less potent. None of the drugs tested were selective for hNKCC1B vs. hNKCC1A, indicating that loop diuretics are not a useful starting point to design NKCC1B-specifc compounds. Azosemide was found to exert an unexpectedly potent inhibitory efect and as a non-acidic compound, it is more likely to cross the blood-brain barrier than bumetanide. Te Na+–K+–2Cl− cotransporter NKCC1 (encoded by SLC12A2) plays an important role in Cl- uptake in neu- rons both in developing brain and in adult sensory neurons1,2.
