์์ฉ ๊ธฐ์ : Torsemide acts on the **thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle** in the kidneys. * It reversibly binds to and inhibits the **Naโบ/Kโบ/2Clโป (NKCC2) cotransporter** at the chloride-binding site โ prevents the reabsorption of sodium and chloride. * This disruption abolishes the hypertonic medullary interstitium โ prevents the concentration of urine โ results in profound **diuresis** (excretion of water). * It also increases the renal excretion of potassium, calcium, magnesium, hydrogen, ammonium, and bicarbonate. In dogs, its potassium-wasting effect is notably less severe than that of furosemide.

๊ธ๊ธฐ
- Known hypersensitivity to torsemide or other sulfonylureas
- Anuric patients
์ด์๋ฐ์
- Fluid and electrolyte abnormalities (hyponatremia, hypocalcemia, hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia)
- Prerenal azotemia (secondary to dehydration)
- Gastrointestinal disturbances
- Hematologic effects (anemia, leukopenia)
- Weakness
- Restlessness
- Ototoxicity (rare, associated with rapid IV administration)
์ฝ๋ฌผ ์ํธ์์ฉ
- ACE Inhibitors (e.g., enalapril, benazepril) ยท Increased risks for hypotension, particularly in patients who are volume or sodium depleted secondary to diuretics
- Aminoglycosides (gentamicin, amikacin, etc.) ยท May increase the ototoxic or nephrotoxic risks of aminoglycosides
- Amphotericin B ยท May increase the risk for nephrotoxicity development
- Digoxin ยท Can increase the area under the curve of torsemide by 50%; torsemide-induced hypokalemia may increase the potential for digoxin toxicity
- Lithium ยท Torsemide may reduce lithium clearance
- NSAIDs ยท Some NSAIDs may reduce the natriuretic effects of torsemide
- Probenecid ยท Can reduce the diuretic efficacy of torsemide
- Salicylates ยท Torsemide can reduce the excretion of salicylates
๋ชจ๋ํฐ๋ง
- Serum electrolytes (especially potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium)
- BUN and creatinine
- Blood glucose (if diabetic)
- Hydration status
- Blood pressure (if indicated)
- Clinical signs of edema and patient weight

In dogs, the oral LD50 is >2 grams/kg. **Fluid and electrolyte imbalance** is the most likely risk associated with an overdose. * Consider gut emptying protocols for very large or quantity unknown ingestions. * Acute overdoses should generally be managed by observation with fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base monitoring. * Supportive treatment should be initiated if required.
