The antibiotic trimethoprim (TMP) often mediates K+ retention and metabolic acidosis. We suggest a revision of the underlying mechanism that causes metabolic acidosis. Our results indicate that TMP-induced metabolic acidosis is secondary to epithelial Na+ channel-dependent K+ retention. Under control dietary conditions, TMP does not per se inhibit collecting duct H+ secretion. These findings add further argument against a physiologically relevant voltage-dependent mechanism of collecting duct H+ excretion.
