  • Title: [Diuresis and natriuresis following application of bemeticide and triamterence in rats on normal and low-potassium diet (author's transl)].
    Author: Biach B.
    Journal: Arzneimittelforschung; 1977; 27(5):1026-34. PubMed ID: 577865.
    Abstract:
    The investigations were carried out under identical conditions and were aimed at determining the effects of different doses of the two diuretics: 3-(alpha-methylbenzyl)-6-chloro-7-sulfamyl-3,4-dihydro-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide (bemeticide) and 2,4,7-triamino-6-phenylpteredine (triamterene) as well as for their joint administration at ratios of 1:2 and 1:4, resp., with regard to renal elimination of sodium and potassium as well as to urinary output in normally and low-potassium-fed rats. The 1:2 combination of bemeticide and triamterene resulted in an optimum diuretic and sodium elimination effect with potassium values within normal range, both in the normally and in the low-potassium-fed animals. An increase of the triamterene component from the 1:2 to the 1:4 ratio did not yield additional advantages.
