Metolazone is a quinazoline-derivative thiazide-like diuretic. It inhibits sodium reabsorption at the cortical diluting segment of the distal renal tubule and proximal tubule. Uniquely, it retains its diuretic potency even in advanced renal failure (GFR < 20 mL/min) where standard thiazides fail, and exhibits profound synergistic diuresis ("sequential nephron blockade") when combined with loop diuretics. Indicated for severe refractory edema accompanying congestive heart failure and renal disease, and hypertension.
