II. Intra- to extracellular shift - Acidosis
- Hyperosmolality; radiocontrast, hypertonic dextrose, mannitol
- β-Adrenergic antagonists (noncardioselective agents)
- Digoxin and related glycosides (yellow oleander, foxglove, bufadienolide)
- Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis
- Lysine, arginine, and -aminocaproic acid (structurally similar, positively charged)
- Succinylcholine; thermal trauma, neuromuscular injury, disuse atrophy, mucositis, or prolonged immobilization
- Rapid tumor lysis
|
III. Inadequate excretion - Inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone axis; ↑ risk of hyperkalemia when used in combination or at higher than recommended dosages
- ACE inhibitors
- Renin inhibitors: aliskiren (in combination with ACE inhibitors or ARBs)
- ARBs
- Blockade of the mineralocorticoid receptor: spironolactone, eplerenone, drospirenone
- Blockade of ENaC: amiloride, triamterene, trimethoprim, pentamidine, nafamostat
- Decreased distal delivery
- Congestive heart failure
- Volume depletion
- Hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism
- Tubulointerstitial diseases: SLE, sickle cell anemia, obstructive uropathy
- Diabetes, diabetic nephropathy
- Drugs: nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, COX-2 inhibitors, β blockers, cyclosporine, tacrolimus
- Chronic kidney disease, advanced age
- Pseudohypoaldosteronism type II: defects in WNK1 or WNK4 kinases, Kelch-like 3 (KLHL3), or Cullin 3 (CUL3)
- Renal resistance to mineralocorticoid
- Tubulointerstitial diseases: SLE, amyloidosis, sickle cell anemia, obstructive uropathy, post-acute tubular necrosis
- Hereditary: pseudohypoaldosteronism type I: defects in the mineralocorticoid receptor or ENaC
- Advanced renal insufficiency with low GFR
- Chronic kidney disease
- End-stage renal disease
- Acute oliguric kidney injury
- Primary adrenal insufficiency
- Autoimmune: Addison's disease, polyglandular endocrinopathy
- Infectious: HIV, cytomegalovirus, tuberculosis, disseminated fungal infection
- Infiltrative: amyloidosis, malignancy, metastatic cancer
- Drug-associated: heparin, low-molecular-weight heparin
- Hereditary: adrenal hypoplasia congenita, congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia, aldosterone synthase deficiency
- Adrenal hemorrhage or infarction, including in antiphospholipid syndrome
