Thiazide Diuretics Pharmacology Nursing NCLEX Review (Mechanism of Action & Side Effects)

Thiazide diuretics pharmacology nursing NCLEX review about the mechanism of action, side effects, nursing implications, and patient education.
Thiazide diuretics work to inhibit the sodium-chloride cotransporter (NCC) in the early part of the distal convoluted tubule. This will decrease sodium reabsorption...meaning less sodium will enter back into the blood. Instead, the sodium will stay in the filtrate. Therefore, this will cause more water to stay in the filtrate and less to be reabsorbed back into the blood…hence, leading to diuresis (increased urination).
Thiazides are used to treat hypertension, heart failure, and renal calculi that are composed of calcium.
Side effects of thiazides include hypokalemia, hyponatremia, hypercalcemia, hyperuricemia, hyperglycemia, metabolic acidosis, and orthostatic hypotension.
Nursing implication for thiazide diuretics are monitoring for signs and symptoms of dehydration (low blood pressure, fast heart rate), strict intake and output measure, daily weights, monitor labs for electrolyte imbalances, avoid digoxin and lithium toxicity etc.

I love your series on antihypertensives. I'll have 30 years as an RN in 2020 but I always found antihypertensive theory difficult, so every once in a while, I like to refresh myself with a great series of lectures much like yours.

I have started watching you while I was in my pre reqs to prep for nursing school....were fixin to go into elimination this week and let me tell you, i have learned so much fr you, but now that I've read the content snd relistened to you it all CLICKS. And let me tell you, you are definitely the guardian angel for nursing students
Thank you ma'am!!!

Nurse Sarah, you've still got to be the most charming Nurse instructor on the planet! I passed the NCLEX a year ago, but I still really enjoy your videos because there is always something new to learn and/or refresh my recollection on. Keep up the good work!

Absolutely love your videos. They have helped me a lot during nursing school. Can’t wait to become an RN and I hope my RUclips channel can help people as much as I know your Channel does.

Hi Sarah, Congrats to your new bundle of joy! I’ve been watching your reviews for couple of months now. By the way, I’m using my husbands account. If it’s not too much to ask, could you make a review for child development like the type of play, important person etc for different age group. Thanks! More Power to your RUclips Channel!
