BACKGROUND: Thiazide diuretics and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors can cause excessive urinary zinc (Zn) loss and Zn depletion. Thiazides may also induce magnesium (Mg) deficiency, which may exacerbate hypertension. Data on the effects of angiotensin receptor blockers on Zn and Mg homeostasis are scarce.
METHODS: Seventeen hypertensive patients were studied (ten men and seven women, age 50 +/- 3 years, blood pressure 158 +/- 5 / 95 +/- 3 mm Hg). Patients were treated with losartan 50 mg/day for 4 weeks followed by a fixed combination of 50 mg losartan and 12.5 mg hydrochlorothiazide for 4 weeks more. Blood and 24-h urine were collected at baseline and after each study period. Zinc and Mg levels were measured in serum, urine, and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Nitric oxide metabolites were measured in urine.
RESULTS: Treatment with losartan resulted in a significant increase in the urinary Zn/creatinine ratio (from 0.020 +/- 0.004 microg/mg to 0.034 +/- 0.005 microg/mg, P = .02), which was further increased by the losartan/hydrochlorothiazide combination (from 0.034 +/- 0.005 microg/mg to 0.053 +/- 0.008 microg/mg, P = .03). Serum Zn levels were significantly decreased after losartan/hydrochlorothiazide (from 80.0 +/- 4.0 microg/dL at baseline to 74.0 +/- 3.0 microg/dL, P = .007). Peripheral blood mononuclear Zn concentrations were decreased also, but this was not statistically significant. Serum, urinary, and peripheral blood mononuclear Mg levels were not significantly affected by treatment. Nitric oxide urinary metabolites were unchanged throughout the study.
CONCLUSIONS: Treatment with losartan causes an increase in urinary Zn excretion and induces Zn deficiency in patients with hypertension. The addition of hydrochlorothiazide has an additive effect. Magnesium and nitric oxide metabolism are not affected by either treatment.
