metyrapone and Electrolytes

metyrapone has been researched along with Electrolytes in 10 studies

Metyrapone: An inhibitor of the enzyme STEROID 11-BETA-MONOOXYGENASE. It is used as a test of the feedback hypothalamic-pituitary mechanism in the diagnosis of CUSHING SYNDROME.
metyrapone : An aromatic ketone that is 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-one in which the methyl groups at positions 1 and 4 are replaced by pyridin-3-yl groups. A steroid 11beta-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.15.4) inhibitor, it is used in the diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency.

Electrolytes: Substances that dissociate into two or more ions, to some extent, in water. Solutions of electrolytes thus conduct an electric current and can be decomposed by it (ELECTROLYSIS). (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)

"The effect of 5 to 9 days of metyrapone administration (400 mg/m2 every 4 h) on aldosterone, deoxycorticosterone, plasma renin activity, electrolyte balance, and blood pressure was investigated in 2 normotensive siblings (one of whom showed limited ACTH reserve), in 3 patients with hypertension and dexamethasone-suppressible hyperaldosteronism, and in a hypertensive patient with primary hyperaldosteronism due to bilateral adrenal hyperplasia."7.66Mineralocorticoid and metabolic response to metyrapone on normotensive children and children with dexamethasone-suppressible and primary hyperaldosteronism.
