Aldosterone Antagonists; Diuretics
National Library of Medicine's Medical Subject Headings online file (MeSH, 1999)
/EXPL THER:/ Aldosterone is important in the pathophysiology of heart failure. In a doubleblind study, we enrolled 1663 patients who had severe heart failure and a left ventricular ejection fraction of no more than 35 percent and who were being treated with an angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor, a loop diuretic, and in most cases digoxin. A total of 822 patients were randomly assigned to receive 25 mg of spironolactone daily, and 841 to receive placebo. The primary end point was death from all causes. The trial was discontinued early, after a mean follow-up period of 24 months, because an interim analysis determined that spironolactone was efficacious. There were 386 deaths in the placebo group (46 percent) and 284 in the spironolactone group (35 percent; relative risk of death, 0.70; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.60 to 0.82; P<0.001). This 30 percent reduction in the risk of death among patients in the spironolactone group was attributed to a lower risk of both death from progressive heart failure and sudden death from cardiac causes. The frequency of hospitalization for worsening heart failure was 35 percent lower in the spironolactone group than in the placebo group (relative risk of hospitalization, 0.65; 95 percent confidence interval, 0.54 to 0.77; P<0.001). In addition, patients who received spironolactone had a significant improvement in the symptoms of heart failure, as assessed on the basis of the New York Heart Association functional class (P<0.001). Gynecomastia or breast pain was reported in 10 percent of men who were treated with spironolactone, as compared with 1 percent of men in the placebo group (P<0.001). The incidence of serious hyperkalemia was minimal in both groups of patients.

MEDICATION (VET): Spironolactone can be used with furosemide to control ascites.

MEDICATION (VET): Spironolactone is used most frequently and is a competitive antagonist of aldosterone. Aldosterone is elevated in animals with congestive heart failure in which the renin-angiotensin system is activated in response to hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, and reductions in blood pressure or cardiac output. Aldosterone is responsible for increasing sodium and chloride reabsorption and potassium and calcium excretion from renal tubules. Spironolactone competes with aldosterone at its receptor site, causing a mild diuresis and potassium retention.

Spironolactone is an aldosterone antagonist that acts on the mineralocorticoid receptor. It is a potassium-sparing diuretic, and hyperkalemia is the most common and potentially serious complication of therapy. Impaired kidney function appears to increase this risk, as does supplementation with potassium chloride. Excessive diuresis can also lead to dehydration and hyponatraemia. A number of endocrine effects have also been reported, the most common of which is gynaecomastia, with a dose-related incidence of 7-52%. This side-effect is reversible and disappears upon discontinuation of therapy. Other endocrine effects include loss of sexual potency in men and menstrual irregularity, amenorrhea, breast engorgement and chloasma in women. These effects are probably due to interaction of spironolactone with the androgen receptor.

There are a few isolated case reports of idiosyncratic drug reactions, including one case of hepatitis and several cases of agranulocytosis. Approximately 10 cases have been reported of allergic contact dermatitis after topical application of spironolactone for various dermal indications involving its antiandrogen activity.

Spironolactone is indicated for the treatment of New York Heart Association Class III-IV heart failure, management of edema in cirrhotic adults not responsive to fluid and sodium restrictions, primary hyperaldosteronism short-term preoperatively, primary hyperaldosteronism long-term in patients with aldosterone producing adrenal adenomas that are not candidates for surgery or patients with bilarteral micro/macronodular adrenal hyperplasia, as an add-on therapy in hypertension, and in nephrotic syndrome when treatment of the disease as well as fluid and sodium restriction with other diuretics is inadequate. Spironolactone has antiandrogenic activity which leads to many of its off label uses. Spironolactone is used off label in the treatment of hirsutism, female pattern hair loss, and adult acne vulgaris. Spironolactone is also frequently used for its antiandrogenic effects in transgender female patients due to its low cost and reducing male-pattern hair growth.
FDA Label
For use in combination with standard therapy (including diuretic support, where necessary) for the treatment of congestive heart failure caused by valvular regurgitation in dogs.
Originally spironolactone was only studied for its potassium sparing diuretic effect. Spironolactone competitively inhibits mineralocorticoid receptors in the distal convoluted tubule to promote sodium and water excretion and potassium retention.. Inhibition of this receptor leads to increased renin and aldosterone levels. Spironolactone is structurally similar to progesterone and as a result is associated with progestogenic and antiandrogenic effects.

Absorption
Spironolactone reaches a maximum concentration in 2.6 hours and an active metabolite (canrenone) reaches a maximum concentration in 4.3 hours. When taken with food, the bioavailability of spironolactone increases to 95.4%. Giving spironolactone with food increases the maximum concentration from 209ng/mL to 301ng/mL. The time to maximum concentration also increases from 2.28 hours to 3.05 hours. The area under the curve varies from 2103ng/mL\*hr to 4544ng/mL*hr.
Route of Elimination
Metabolites of spironolactone are excreted 42-56% in urine, and 14.2-14.6% in the feces. No unmetabolized spironolactone is present in the urine.

Clearance
Clearance data is not readily available.
At the time spironolactone was introduced for clinical use, its bioavailability was inadequate, and this was improved by preparing the drug in finely powdered or micronized form. The absolute bioavailability was indirectly estimated at approximately 73%, which was enhanced in the presence of food. Nearly all absorbed spironolactone (> 90 %) is bound to plasma proteins and, with repeated dosing, a steady state is achieved within 8 days. After oral intake of a 100-mg dose, the plasma half-time of spironolactone was 1-2 h, the time to maximum plasma concentration was 2-3.2 hr, the maximum blood concentration was 92-148 ng/mL, the area under the concentration--time (0-24 hr) curve was 1430-1541 ng/mL per hr and the elimination half-time was 18-20 hr.

The disposition of (14)C spironolactone was studied in male rats, female dogs and female monkeys after intravenous or oral administration of 5 mg/kg bw. Gastrointestinal absorption was estimated to be 82% in rats, 62% in dogs and 103% in monkeys. Spironolactone was extensively metabolized in all three species, and the metabolites were excreted primarily in the urine and feces. The amount of radiolabel excreted in urine or feces of all three species was similar after intravenous and after oral dosing. In monkeys, as in humans, the amounts excreted in urine and feces were about equal, while fecal excretion predominated in rats and dogs as a result of biliary excretion. After the oral dose, the percentage of urinary excretion was 4.7% in rats, 18% in dogs and 46% in monkeys. The high excretion of radiolabel in the feces of rats (90%) after intravenous administration shows the importance of biliary excretion for that species. Species differences were also noted in the biotransformation of spironolactone. ...

Absorption of spironolactone from the GI tract depends on the formulation in which it is administered. Currently available formulations of spironolactone are well absorbed from the GI tract and bioavailability of the drug exceeds 90% when compared to an optimally absorbed spironolactone solution in polyethylene glycol 400. Following a single oral dose of spironolactone, peak serum concentrations of the drug occur within 1-2 hours, and peak serum concentrations of its principal metabolites are attained within 2-4 hours. When spironolactone is administered concomitantly with food, peak serum concentrations and areas under the serum concentration-time curves (AUCs) of the drug and, to a lesser degree, its principal metabolites are increased substantially compared with the fasting state...

Spironolactone and canrenone, a major metabolite of the drug, are both more than 90% bound to plasma proteins. Spironolactone or its metabolites may cross the placenta. Canrenone, a major metabolite of spironolactone, is distributed into milk.

Spironolactone is deacetylated to 7-thiospironolactone. 7-thiospironolactone is S-methylated to 7-thiomethylspironolactone or undergoes an elimination reaction to canrenone. 7-thiomethylspironolactone is reduced to 3-hydroxythiomethylspironolactone or 3-hydroxythiomethylspironolactone. Canrenone was originally thought to be the primary circulating metabolite, however more recent studies have demonstrated that the primary metabolite is actually 7-thiomethylspironolactone.
Spironolactone is rapidly and extensively metabolized to compounds that are excreted in the urine and faeces. It undergoes enterohepatic recirculation, but no unchanged drug appears in urine or feces. The metabolites of spironolactone can be divided into two main groups: those in which the sulfur moiety is retained and those in which the sulfur is removed by dethioacetylation. For many years, it was thought that the dethioacetylated metabolite, canrenone, was the major metabolite; however, with more specific analytical methods such as HPLC, 7alpha-thiomethylspirolactone was recognized as the major metabolite of spironolactone. This metabolite is formed by hydrolysis of the thioacetate group to form 7alpha-thiospirolactone (as an intermediate), followed by S-methylation to 7alpha-thiomethylspirolactone. This can then be hydroxylated to form 6-hydroxy-7alpha-thiomethylspirolactone and oxidized to form 7alpha-methylsulfinyl- and 7alpha-methylsulfonylspirolactone or via sulfoxidation to form 6alpha-hydroxy-7alpha-methylsulfinyl- and 6beta-hydroxy-7alpha-methylsulfonylspirolactone. For formation of the group of metabolites in which sulfur is removed, 7alpha-thiomethylspirolactone is also dethioacetylated to canrenone, which is further metabolized by three pathways: hydrolysis of the gamma-lactone ring to form canrenoate, which is excreted in the urine as a glucuronic ester, and, next, hydroxylation to form 15alpha-hydroxy-canrenone or reduction to produce several di-, tetra- and hexa-hydro derivatives. Canrenone and canrenoate are in equilibrium with one another. Not only spironolactone but several of its metabolites have biological activity; in decreasing order of potency, these are 7alpha-thiospirolactone, 7alpha-thiomethylspirolactone and canrenone.

Species differences were ... noted in the biotransformation of spironolactone. Canrenone was a principal extractable metabolite in rat and dog plasma, whereas in monkeys and humans, both canrenone and a very polar, unidentified metabolite were the major constituents. In the urine of all four species, canrenone was a principal constituent. Notable species differences in the metabolites of spironolactone in the feces were found, the pattern of metabolites in dog feces being markedly different from that in rats, monkeys or humans. Overall, it was concluded that the disposition and metabolism of spironolactone in monkeys, rather than that in rats or dogs, is closest to that in humans.

Following a single oral dose in healthy adults, the half-life of spironolactone averages 1.3-2 hours, and the half-life of 7alpha-thiomethylspironolactone averages 2.8 hours. The half-life of canrenone reportedly ranges from 13-24 hours. In multiple-dose studies, the steady-state plasma elimination half-life of canrenone averaged 19.2 hours when 200 mg of spironolactone was administered daily as a single dose and averaged 12.5 hours when 200 mg of the drug was administered daily in 4 equally divided doses.

Spironolactone competitively inhibits aldosterone dependant sodium potassium exchange channels in the distal convoluted tubule. This action leads to increased sodium and water excretion, but more potassium retention. The increased excretion of water leads to diuretic and also antihypertensive effects.
Spironolactone can exert antiandrogenic effects by several mechanisms: it can destroy testicular CYP and decrease 17alpha-hydroxylase activity, resulting in decreased testosterone synthesis; and it can inhibit 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone binding to cytosolic androgen receptor in the prostate.

Spironolactone exhibits antiandrogenic effects in males and females. The mechanism of antiandrogenic activity of spironolactone is complex and appears to involve several effects of the drug. Spironolactone decreases testosterone biosynthesis by inhibiting steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase (17alpha-hydroxylase) activity, possibly secondary to destruction of microsomal cytochrome P-450 in tissues with high steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase activity (e.g., testes, adrenals). The drug also appears to competitively inhibit binding of dihydrotestosterone to its cytoplasmic receptor protein, thus decreasing androgenic actions at target tissues. Spironolactone-induced increases in serum estradiol concentration also may contribute to its antiandrogenic activity, although such increases may not occur consistently; such increases appear to result from increased conversion of testosterone to estradiol. Spironolactone may have variable effects on serum 17-hydroxyprogesterone concentrations, possibly decreasing its production by inhibiting steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase activity or decreasing its conversion (with resultant accumulation) to androstenedione by inhibiting cytochrome P450-dependent 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone aldolase (17,20-desmolase) activity. Serum progesterone concentrations may increase with the drug secondary to decreased hydroxylation (via steroid 17alpha-monooxygenase) to 17-hydroxyprogesterone. In children, compensatory increases in lutropin (luteinizing hormone, LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) secretion can occur, probably secondary to the drug's antiandrogenic effects (i.e., a feedback response to decreasing serum testosterone concentrations and/or peripheral androgenic activity).

MEDICATION (VET): Spironolactone is used most frequently and is a competitive antagonist of aldosterone. Aldosterone is elevated in animals with congestive heart failure in which the renin-angiotensin system is activated in response to hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, and reductions in blood pressure or cardiac output. Aldosterone is responsible for increasing sodium and chloride reabsorption and potassium and calcium excretion from renal tubules. Spironolactone competes with aldosterone at its receptor site, causing a mild diuresis and potassium retention.

High concentrations of spironolactone have been reported to interfere with steroid biosynthesis by inhibiting 11 beta- and 18-, 21-, and 17 alpha-hydroxylase.
