Abstract

Fluoride renal clearance (CF) was studied in young healthy subjects with standard clearance technique following administration of 3 mg F as a 30-min constant infusion. High urinary flow rates were induced and experiments were performed under both urinary alkaline and acidic conditions. The data showed that a high urinary flow resulted in maximum fluoride clearance. High water diuresis may therefore be an important part in the treatment of acute fluoride intoxication.
