Summary

This study aims to compare two medications, acetazolamide and metolazone, along with loop diuretics, to see which one works better and is safer for patients with ADHF who have volume overload. By comparing these medications, we hope to learn which one can help these patients the most. This will help doctors choose the best treatment for patients with ADHF and volume overload.

Conditions

  • Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
  • Volume Overload
  • Edema

Interventions

DRUG

Acetazolamide

Acetazolamide is a medication that belongs to the class of carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. It acts by reducing the reabsorption of sodium in the proximal tubules of the kidneys. When combined with loop diuretics, acetazolamide has the potential to enhance the effectiveness of diuretic therapy, thus aiding in the process of decongestion. It will be given 500mg orally, once daily.

DRUG

Metolazone

Metolazone is a medication with properties like thiazide diuretics, prescribed for the management of congestive heart failure and hypertension. Its mechanism of action involves blocking the transport of sodium across the epithelium of renal tubules, predominantly in the distal tubules. It will be given 5mg orally, once daily.

DRUG

IV Loop Diuretics

IV loop diuretic 2 times the outpatient oral (PO) daily dose, and oral loop diuretics will be stopped. In cases where the patient was not previously on oral diuretics, a starting dose of 40 mg of IV furosemide, IV bumetanide 1 mg or a bolus of 20 mg of IV torsemide can be utilized.
