Overview
Hypoaldosteronism may be classified into two categories depending on the level of plasma renin and depending on the level of aldosterone into hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism or hyperreninemic hypoaldosteronism, and aldosterone deficiency or aldosterone resistance.
Classification
Hypoaldosteronism may be classified into two categories depending on the level of plasma renin and depending on the level of aldosterone into hyporeninemic hypoaldosteronism or hyperreninemic hypoaldosteronism, and aldosterone deficiency or aldosterone resistance.
Based on the level of plasma renin
Hypoaldosteronism can be classified on the basis of plasma renin activity into hyporeninemic or hyperreninemic hypoaldosteronism.

| Hyporeninemic Hypoaldosteronism | Hyperreninemic Hypoaldosteronism | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| •Renal insufficiency •Diabetic nephropathy •Sickle cell disease | •Addison's disease • Any severe illness such as malignancy or sepsis | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Based on the level of aldosterone
Hypoaldosteronism can also be classified on the basis of level of aldosterone.
