Field Change Suggestions:
A 50-year-old man has a history of frequent episodes of renal colic with calcium-containing renal stones. A careful workup indicates that he has a defect in proximal tubular calcium reabsorption, which results in high concentrations of calcium salts in the tubular urine. The most useful diuretic agent in the treatment of recurrent calcium stones is

The thiazides are useful in the prevention of calcium stones because these drugs reduce tubular calcium concentration, probably by increasing passive proximal tubular and distal convoluted tubule reabsorption of calcium. In contrast, the loop agents (choice C) facilitate calcium excretion. Diazoxide is a thiazide-like vasodilator drug but has no diuretic action; in fact, it may cause sodium retention. It is used in hyperten sion and insulinoma (see Chapter 11). The answer is A
