Interaction entre Lisinopril et hydrochlorothiazide et Spironolactone et hydrochlorothiazide

…administration of spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets with the following drugs or potassium sources may lead to severe hyperkalemia: • other potassium-sparing diuretics • ACE inhibitors • angiotensin II receptor antagonists • aldosterone blockers • non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), e.g., indomethacin • heparin and low molecular weight heparin…

Spironolactone, when used with ACE inhibitors or indomethacin, even in the presence of a diuretic, has been associated with severe hyperkalemia.

Thiazides may add to or potentiate the action of other antihypertensive drugs.

Drug interactions ACE inhibitors, Angiotensin II receptor antagonists, aldosterone blockers, potassium supplements, heparin, low molecular weight heparin, and other drugs known to cause hyperkalemia: Concomitant administration may lead to severe hyperkalemia.

Other Metabolic Disturbances Hydrochlorothiazide may alter glucose tolerance and raise serum levels of cholesterol and triglycerides.

Hypotension and Related Effects: Excessive hypotension was rarely seen in uncomplicated hypertensive patients but is a possible consequence of lisinopril use in salt/volume-depleted persons such as those treated vigorously with diuretics or patients on dialysis (see PRECAUTIONS, Drug Interactions and ADVERSE REACTIONS ).

Such patients should be followed closely for the first two weeks of treatment and whenever the dose of lisinopril and/or diuretic is increased.

Drug Interactions Lisinopril Hypotension - Patients on Diuretic Therapy: Patients on diuretics and especially those in whom diuretic therapy was recently instituted, may occasionally experience an excessive reduction of blood pressure after initiation of therapy with lisinopril.

If it is necessary to continue the diuretic, initiate therapy with lisinopril at a dose of 5 mg daily, and provide close medical supervision after the initial dose for at least two hours and until blood pressure has stabilized for at least an additional hour (see WARNINGS , and DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION ).

When a diuretic is added to the therapy of a patient receiving lisinopril, an additional antihypertensive effect is usually observed (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION ).
