Final answer:
The appropriate auxiliary label for Dyazide or Maxzide is 'May cause photosensitivity,' as such diuretics can increase the risk of sunburn. Polyuria would most likely indicate diabetes mellitus or insipidus. Diuretics increase urination frequency by inhibiting the reabsorption of Na+ and Cl- in the loop of Henle to treat hypertension.
Step-by-step explanation:
Among the auxiliary labels for Dyazide or Maxzide, which are both combination diuretics containing hydrochlorothiazide and triamterene, the appropriate label would be b) May cause photosensitivity. This is because diuretics can increase the sensitivity of the skin to sunlight, leading to an increased risk of sunburn. Patients taking these medications should be advised to use protective clothing and sunscreen when spending time in the sun.
As for the review questions:
- Diabetes insipidus or diabetes mellitus would most likely be indicated by b) polyuria, which is a condition characterized by the production of abnormally large volumes of dilute urine.
- The color of urine is determined mainly by the pigment urochrome, as well as by other pigmented compounds and substances that may be present in the body due to various conditions or consumption of certain foods or medications.
- A drug that has a side effect of increasing the frequency of urination might cause this because it is likely a diuretic used to treat hypertension. d) The diuretic is working on the loop of Henle and inhibiting the reabsorption of Na+ and Cl-.
