Acetazolamide
A medication that reduces the production of fluid in the eye and brain by inhibiting an enzyme called carbonic anhydrase, making it useful for glaucoma, altitude sickness prevention, and certain types of epilepsy. It also promotes the excretion of bicarbonate in the urine, which can help correct certain acid-base disturbances in the body. Patients may notice increased urination and a tingling sensation in the hands and feet, which are common and expected effects.

Механизм действия
Selectively blocks angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptors, preventing the vasoconstrictive and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II. This results in vasodilation, reduced sodium retention, and decreased blood pressure.
