    Notes: Summary The effect of adding spironolactone (Aldactone) on muscle electrolytes was studied in 48 patients with arterial hypertension and/or congestive heart failure who had received conventional diuretic treatment, including a potassium supplement, for more than 1 year. After 6 months on spironolactone 100 mg/day as well as the original conventional diuretic therapy, there was a significant increase in both skeletal muscle potassium and magnesium. At the same time these parameters decreased in the control group. In the spironolactone group there was also a significant increase in the mean serum potassium and creatinine levels. There was a significant fall in blood pressure in the spironolactone-treated group.

    Notes: Summary The effects on plasma and skeletal muscle electrolytes of the combination of triamterene 37.5 mg and hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg daily were studied in 19 patients on prior long-term (〉1 year) diuretic therapy for arterial hypertension and/or congestive heart failure. A further 20 patients fulfilling the same admission criteria were used as controls. Blood samples and skeletal muscle biopsies were taken before the study and after 6 months on therapy. The diuretic-treated group had a significant increase in skeletal muscle potassium and magnesium after 6 months on therapy as compared to the controls. Thus, the combination of triameterene and hydrochlorothiazide appeared effective in preserving the cellular content of potassium and magnesium on a long-term basis in the type of patient studied.
