Would you continue spironolactone in a patient who has recently progressed to ESKD on HD with oliguria and was diagnosed with primary hyperaldosteronism years ago?
Answer from: at Academic Institution
Although spironolactone does antagonize the effect of aldosterone in the colon, it is unlikely that spironolactone will be effective in treating primary hyperaldosteronism in a patient with ESKD with minimal urine output. Therefore, I would discontinue the spironolactone in such patients.
