Smells Like. . . Diuresis

BP is high, you think you'll die
there are some drugs that you can try
fluid volume may be a lot
diuretics are worth a shot 
how low, how low, how low, to go 
how low, how low, how low, to go 
 
It's Aldactone, spironolactone
there's hygroton, chlorthalidone
thiazide drugs, these include both 
hydrochloro- and the chloro-
furosemide, bumetanide, ethacrynate, and torsemide
loop, hey!
 
Full up on salt, your fluid's much
Edema could be dangerous 
Heart failure, it's hard to breathe
diuretics can help relieve
how low, how low, how low to go 
how low, how low, how low to go 
 
It's Aldactone, spironolactone
there's hygroton, chlorthalidone
thiazide drugs, these include both 
hydrochloro- and the chloro-
furosemide, bumetanide, ethacrynate, and torsemide
loops, hey!
 
we have Lozol, indapamide, 
and Midamor, amiloride
metolazone, zaroxolyn, 
inspra which is epleronone
how low, how low, how low to go 
how low, how low, how low to go
 
It's Aldactone, spironolactone
there's hygroton, chlorthalidone
thiazide drugs, these include both 
hydrochloro- and the chloro-
furosemide, bumetanide, ethacrynate, and torsemide
loops, hey!
 
We have Loop ones, and thiazides, 
Potassium sparing ones too 
there are others but they don't rhyme
they're not major, just nevermind
like mannitol, like mannitol, like mannitol, like mannitol
and caffeine y'all, and caffeine y'all, and caffeine y'all, and caffeine y'all
