Amiloride
A potassium-sparing diuretic that blocks sodium channels in the kidney tubules, reducing sodium reabsorption and water retention without causing the potassium loss associated with most other diuretics. It is used to treat high blood pressure and fluid overload, often combined with potassium-wasting diuretics to maintain normal potassium levels.
