The effects of ticrynafen (250-500 mg) on salt-water and uric acid metabolism have been studied in 18 patients with no haemodinamic abnormalities or salt-water repletion (cardiac failure, oedema). ...The main results are: -- an effective natriuresis is observed in the first days and is attenuated thereafter. In subjects with a reduced GFR, a negative salt balance is obtained altough the volume of diuresis is not significantly increased. -- The potassium loss is variable according to dosage (maximum at 500 mg), renal function (low when reduced). -- The increase of urinary uric acid excretion and the lowering of blood uric acid concentration are rapid and prolonged. In conclusion, we confirm the effective natriuretic and uricosuric properties of ticrynafen.
