Abstract
Hypercalciuria and hypermagnesuria accompany aldosteronism and account for a decline in their plasma ionized concentrations and secondary hyperparathyroidism with bone resorption. Attenuation of bone loss in aldosteronism can be achieved with hydrochlorothiazide; however, mono- and divalent cation homeostasis, together with bone integrity, are each preserved with the combination hydrochlorothiazide + spironolactone.
