Overview

Medical Therapy

  • Prostaglandin synthetase inhibitors suppress the production of prostaglandin. This corrects all the chemical features of the syndrome except the urinary loss of potassium.[1]

While patients should be encouraged to include liberal amounts of sodium and potassium in their diet, potassium supplements are usually required, and spironolactone is also used to reduce potassium loss. Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can be used as well, and are particularly helpful in patients with neonatal Bartter's syndrome. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors can also be used.
