    GlossaryCanrenone

    medication that spares potassium while promoting fluid excretion

    Canrenone is a medication that acts as a potassium-sparing diuretic, meaning it helps the body get rid of excess fluid without causing a loss of potassium. It is often used to treat conditions like heart failure and hypertension, and it works by blocking the effects of aldosterone, a hormone that can cause water and sodium retention.
