Distal sites of action of diuretic drugs in the dog nephron

Abstract
Renal micropuncture experiments during antidiuresis and water diuresis in the dog demonstrated that the osmolality of distal tubular fluid was always increased after the administration of chlormerodrin, chlorothiazide, furosemide, and perhaps acetazolamide. These findings suggest strongly that the site of action of each of these drugs must at least include one or more portions of the ascending limb of Henle''s loop.
