car·bon·ate de·hy·dra·tase in·hib·i·tor

an agent, usually chemically related to the sulfonamides, that inhibits the activity of carbonate dehydratase, producing a general decrease in the formation of H₂CO₃ in the tissues.
See also: acetazolamide. Synonym(s): carbonic anhydrase inhibitor

carbonic anhydrase inhibitor

A sulphonamide diuretic—e.g., acetazolamide, dichlorphenamide, methazolamide—which inhibits carbonic anhydrase and cause metabolic acidosis.
Indications
Glaucoma, diuretics, seizures, migraines, intracranial hypertension, peptic ulcers, acute mountain sickness, osteoporosis and possibly sleep apnoea.
Adverse effects
Paraesthesias of fingers and toes, altered taste, blurred vision, kidney stones, interference with other drugs—e.g., amphetamines, metabolic acidosis.

Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor

A class of diuretic drugs that inhibit the enzyme carbonic anhydrase, an enzyme involved in producing bicarbonate, which is required for aqueous humor production by the ciliary tissues in the eye. Thus, inhibitors of this enzyme inhibit aqueous humor production. Some side effects are urinary frequency, kidney stones, loss of the sense of taste, depression, and anemia.Mentioned in: Glaucoma
