Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25389106

Potassium canrenoate (INN, JAN) or canrenoate potassium (USAN) (brand names Venactone, Soldactone), the potassium salt of canrenoic acid, is an aldosterone antagonist of the spirolactone group. Like spironolactone, it is a prodrug, which is metabolized to canrenone in the body. Potassium canrenoate is not licensed in the UK, but may sometimes be prescribed off-licence to treat oedema. It is given intravenously. Potassium canrenoate is a mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist. The blockade with MR antagonist have beneficial effects in patients with heart failure and myocardial infarction, often attributed to blocking aldosterone action in the myocardium.
