1.D. furosemide, CHF, impaired renal function
2. B. HCTZ. Hyperkalemia is more likely to occur in patients with DM, even with normal renal
function. Triamterene is not good choice.
3. B. HCTZ , decrease urinary Ca level
4. A. Acetazolamide, elimation of acidic drugs
5. A. Acetazolamide, only med working on eyes, glaucoma

Nan but one of HCTZ's side effects is that it increases BS(hyperglycemia), so I guess it's not a good choice for a diabetic
