Abstract

Spironolactone reduces potassium excretion in renal collecting ducts and causes hyperkalemia. A 66-year-old female with urinary incontinence had to discontinue diuretics for hyperkalemia. After treatment with Jesaengsinkihwan-gagambang. she reduced urinary incontinence and her total urine volume was increased. BUN decreased from 32.2 to 16 and creatinine decreased from 1.5 th 0.9. So. we report one case of urinary incontinence with discontinuance of diuretics for hyperkalemia treated with Jesaengsinkihwan-gagambang.
