PRESCRIPTION DRUG
Metolazone tablets are indicated for the treatment of salt and water retention including: - edema accompanying congestive heart failure; - edema accompanying renal diseases, including the nephrotic syndrome and states of diminished renal function. Metolazone tablets are also indicated for the treatment of hypertension, alone or in combination with other antihypertensive drugs of a different class. MYKROX Tablets, a more rapidly available form of metolazone, are intended for the treatment of new patients with mild to moderate hypertension. A dose titration is necessary if MYKROX Tablets are to be substituted for metolazone in the treatment of hypertension. See package circular for MYKROX Tablets. Usage In Pregnancy The routine use of diuretics in an otherwise healthy woman is inappropriate and exposes mother and fetus to unnecessary hazard. Diuretics do not prevent development of toxemia of pregnancy, and there is no evidence that they are useful in the treatment of developed toxemia. Edema d

Metolazone has the molecular formula C H ClN O S, the chemical name 7-chloro-1, 2, 3, 4- tetrahydro-2-methyl-3-(2-methylphenyl)-4-oxo-6-quinazolinesulfonamide, and a molecular weight of 365.83. The structural formula is: Metolazone is only sparingly soluble in water, but more soluble in plasma, blood, alkali, and organic solvents. Inactive Ingredients: Magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, colloidal silicon dioxide and dye: 2.5 mg - FD&C Red No. 40 and FD&C Blue No. 2; 5 mg - FD&C Blue No. 2; 10 mg - D&C Yellow No. 10. 16 16 3 3 CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Metolazone is a quinazoline diuretic, with properties generally similar to the thiazide diuretics. The actions of metolazone result from interference with the renal tubular mechanism of electrolyte reabsorption. Metolazone acts primarily to inhibit sodium reabsorption at the cortical diluting site and to a lesser extent in the proximal convoluted tubule. Sodium and chloride ions are excreted in approximately equivalent amounts. The increased delivery of sodium to the distal tubular exchange site results in increased potassium excretion. Metolazone does not inhibit carbonic anhydrase. A proximal action of metolazone has been shown in humans by increased excretion of phosphate and magnesium ions and by a markedly increased fractional excretion of s সম্পূর্ণ নথি পড়ুন
