spironolactone and Cochlear Hearing Loss

spironolactone has been researched along with Cochlear Hearing Loss in 2 studies

Spironolactone: A potassium sparing diuretic that acts by antagonism of aldosterone in the distal renal tubules. It is used mainly in the treatment of refractory edema in patients with congestive heart failure, nephrotic syndrome, or hepatic cirrhosis. Its effects on the endocrine system are utilized in the treatments of hirsutism and acne but they can lead to adverse effects. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p827)
spironolactone : A steroid lactone that is 17alpha-pregn-4-ene-21,17-carbolactone substituted by an oxo group at position 3 and an alpha-acetylsulfanyl group at position 7.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The spironolactone treatment did not block normal glucocorticoid receptor-mediated immune-suppression functions because mice receiving prednisolone, either with or without spironolactone, maintained normal body weights, hematocrits, and serum immune complexes."1.33Mineralocorticoid receptor mediates glucocorticoid treatment effects in the autoimmune mouse ear. ( Gross, ND; Kempton, JB; Trune, DR, 2006)
"Although autoimmune sensorineural hearing loss can be effectively treated with corticosteroids, little is known about how these drugs affect cochlear function."1.31Spironolactone blocks glucocorticoid-mediated hearing preservation in autoimmune mice. ( Gross, ND; Kempton, JB; Trune, DR, 2002)
