CAS 636-54-4: Clopamide
Description:Clopamide is a sulfonamide diuretic medication primarily used to treat hypertension and edema associated with heart failure. It functions by inhibiting sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule of the nephron, leading to increased urine output and decreased blood volume. Clopamide is characterized by its chemical formula, which includes a sulfonamide group, contributing to its pharmacological activity. The substance is typically administered orally and is known for its moderate potency compared to other diuretics. Clopamide has a relatively long half-life, allowing for once-daily dosing in many cases. Its side effects may include electrolyte imbalances, particularly hypokalemia, and potential allergic reactions due to its sulfonamide structure. As with any medication, it is essential to monitor patients for adverse effects and interactions with other drugs. Overall, Clopamide is an effective agent in managing fluid retention and hypertension, contributing to improved cardiovascular health when used appropriately.
