Methadone Hydrochloride Visual incompatibilities of methadone hydrochloride were observed with solutions of aminophylline, ammonium chloride, amylo-barbitone sodium, chlorothiazide sodium, heparin sodium, nitrofurantoin sodium, novobiocin, pentobarbitone sodium, phenobarbitone sodium, phenytoin sodium, quinalbarbitone sodium, sodium bicarbonate, sodium iodide, sulfadiazine sodium, sulfafurazole diethanolamine, or thiopentone sodium. 

Prochlorperazine Edisylate Prochlorperazine edisylate is not compatible with sodium chloride solutions containing methyl hydroxybenzoate and propyl hydroxy-benzoate as preservatives, but is compatible with solutions containing benzyl alcohol. Prochlorperazine edisylate salts are incompatible with a number of drugs such as aminophylline, amphotericin, ampicillin sodium, some barbiturates, ben-zylpenicillin salts, calcium gluconate, cefmetazole sodium, cephalothin sodium, chloramphenicol sodium succinate, chlorothiazide sodium, chloramphenicol, morphine sulfate containing phenol, magnesium trisilicate mixture, sodium succinate, chlorothiazide sodium, dimenhydrinate, heparin sodium, hydrocortisone sodium succinate, midazolam hydrochloride, and some sulfonamides.166...

Thiazide diuretics such as chlorothiazide act on the distal tubule, a portion of the tubule that is permeable to sodium. The mechanism of action of these diuretics involves inhibition of NaCl reabsorption by blocking the Na+, CL symporter in the luminal membrane. The thiazide diuretics are only moderately effective due to the location of their site of action. Approximately 90% of the filtered Na+ ions have already been reabsorbed when the filtrate reaches the distal tubule. These drugs may be used for treatment of edema associated with heart, liver, and renal disease. Thiazide diuretics are also widely used for the treatment of hypertension. 

The diuretic action of chlorothiazide, like other drugs of this series, is caused by reduced absorption of sodium and chloride ions by the kidneys during their simultaneous, intense excretion from the organism. 

Hydrochlorothiazide is one of the most widely used drugs of this series, and it is used for the same indications, as is chlorothiazide. Hydrochlorothiazide causes less inhibition of carbonic anhydrase, but causes 5-10 times more diuresis of sodium ions than chlorothiazide using the same dose. Synonyms of this drug are chlorozide, diaqua, esidrix, hydrodiuril, hydrozide, hypothiazide, novohydrazide, urozide, and others. 

The furosemide extraction procedure was later examined for potential application in the analysis of thiazide diuretics in milk. Since this procedure could not provide sufficiently clean extracts for thiazides, additional acidic and basic extraction procedures were evaluated (557). Thus, milk was deproteinized with trichloroacetic acid, phosphoric acid, or potassium dihydrogen phosphate and centrifuged. The supernatants were extracted with ethyl acetate, evaporated to dryness, reconstituted in mobile phase, and analyzed by liquid chromatography. The recoveries in most cases were low and widely variable. Basic extraction, on the other hand, with sodium bicarbonate/potassium carbonate mixture or potassium monohydrogen phosphate followed by extraction with ethyl acetate also gave poor recoveries in most cases. It appears that a significant degradation of chlorothiazide occurred under the basic conditions. 

Excessive retention of sodium ions in the body leads to increased release of antidiuretic hormone and a resulting increase in body water. Many diuretics such as chlorothiazide (i) and clopamide (2) inhibit sodium and chloride ion resorption in the kidney tubules and promote potassium depletion, whereas amiloride (J) and triamterene ( 4) diminish the excretion of potassium while causing a loss of sodium ions6. Other diuretics such as acetazolamide (5) and dichlorphenamide (6) inhibit the ion-exchange reaction catalysed by the zinc-containing enzyme carbonic an-hydrase. 

Thiazide diuretics such as chlorothiazide (Diuril) and hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) work by blocking the action of aldosterone, a hormone that promotes sodium reabsorption by the kidneys. They are potassium-deplet-... 

Abnormalities in fluid volume and electrolyte composition are common and important clinical problems. Drugs that block the transport functions of the renal tubules are valuable clinical tools in the treatment of these disorders. Although various agents that increase urine flow have been described since antiquity, it was not until 1957 that a practical and powerful diuretic agent (chlorothiazide) became available for widespread use. Technically, the term "diuresis" signifies an increase in urine volume, while "natriuresis" denotes an increase in renal sodium excretion. Because natriuretic drugs almost always also increase water excretion, they are usually called diuretics.

The search was rewarding and opened up new vistas. The first breakthrough in this field was acetazolamide, a potent inhibitor of carbonic anhydrase. This compound induces increased sodium ion excretion and diuresis. It found wide medicinal application in the treatment of cardiac edema, acting presumably by suppression of carbonic anhydrase activity in the renal tubules. Unfortunately, drug tolerance developed in patients, limiting its utility. This deficiency stimulated medicinal chemists to persist in the modification of the sulfanilamide molecule and led to the discovery of chlorothiazide and the thiazide family of drugs. 

The thiazide diuretics, also called sulfonamide or ben-zothiadiazide diuretics, vary in their actions. For instance, the potency of hydrochlorothiazide (Hydro-Diuril and Esidrix) is ten times greater than that of chlorothiazide (Diuril), but the drugs have equal efficacy. The duration of action of hydrochlorothiazide, which is 6 to 12 hours, equals that of chlorothiazide. On the other hand, chlorthalidone (Hygroton) has a duration of action lasting 48 hours. Some thiazide derivatives inhibit carbonic anhydrase, which is unrelated to their diuretic activity. Those that are active in this respect may, at sufficient doses, have the same effect on bicarbonate excretion as does acetazola-mide. They cause a moderate loss of sodium (5 to 10% of the filtered load), chloride, and water, and the clearance of free water is impaired. They may cause metabolic alkalosis (resorption of bicarbonate and loss of hydrogen ions), hyperuricemia (enhanced resorption of uric acid), or hyperglycemia (due to directly inhibited insulin release and to hypokalemia).
