spironolactone and Nephritis

spironolactone has been researched along with Nephritis in 11 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.

Nephritis: Inflammation of any part of the KIDNEY.

"The present study was made to clarify the mechanisms of the antinephritic action of SA-446, an angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibitor, on crescentic-type anti-GBM nephritis in rats as compared to the actions of spironolactone (an antialdosterone agent), kallidinogenase (a kallikrein agent) and saralasin (an angiotensin II antagonist)."3.67Studies on mechanisms of antinephritic action of SA-446 an angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibitor (1). A comparison with actions of spironolactone, kallidinogenase and saralasin. ( Ito, M; Saito, N; Suzuki, Y, 1986)
