==Mechanism of Action==
* Strength of Evidence: (Category A/B/C) (Link)


Acetazolamide is a [[carbonic anhydrase inhibitor]]. It can be used for the medical treatment of moderate to severe metabolic or respiratory alkalosis. Acetazolamide does this by interfering with [[bicarbonate]] (HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>) reabsorption in the [[kidney]]s, thereby reacidifying the blood – hence [[alkali|alkalyzing]] the urine.
* Dosing Information/Recommendation


[[Carbonic anhydrase]] (CA) catalyzes the first part of the following [[reversible reaction]] in which carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) and water (H<sub>2</sub>O) are converted to carbonic acid (H<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>) and vice-versa (the second half happens spontaneously, favouring production of H<sup>+</sup> + HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>):
:* (Dosage)


CO<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O <--<sup>CA</sup>--> H<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>  <--> H<sup>+</sup> + HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>
=====Condition 2=====


In the kidney tubules, locally secreted hydrogen ions normally combine with [[Renal_physiology#Filtration|filtered]] bicarbonate (HCO<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>) to form carbonic acid (H<sub>2</sub>CO<sub>3</sub>). Carbonic acid in turn is normally acted upon by carbonic anhydrase, leading to formation of CO<sub>2</sub>. As CO<sub>2</sub> rapidly leaves the tubules by diffusing across cell membranes, the above reaction normally runs shifted strongly to the left (i.e. reversed), and more bicarbonate can be continuously reabsorbed from the preurine. However, in the presence of acetazolamide, carbonic anhydrase is inhibited and carbonic acid levels build up. The inhibition of carbonic anhydrase in turn leads to a slowing of the reverse reaction and a decrease in the body's ability to reabsorb serum bicarbonate, resulting in urinary bicarbonate wasting. This leads to a decreased ability to exchange Na<sup>+</sup> for H<sup>+</sup> in the presence of acetazolamide (in proximal convoluted tubules of kidney) resulting in a mild diuresis.<ref>Lippincott's Illustrated Reviews: Pharmacology, 4th edition page 428</ref> By contrast, the H<sup>+</sup> that is also present in the lumen is reabsorbed via an alternative pathway along with Cl<sup>-</sup>; it then passes into the bloodstream, leading to hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis.<ref>Renal and Electrolyte Disorders Schrier 1976: page 89</ref> This effect can also be used for therapeutic correction of alkalosis seen in altitude sickness or other forms of [[respiratory alkalosis]].
