एमिलोराइड और हाइड्रोक्लोरोथायज़ाइड का इंटरैक्शन

Hyperkalemia occurs commonly (about 10%) when amiloride is used without a kaliuretic diuretic.

When amiloride HCl is used concomitantly with a thiazide diuretic in patients without these complications, the risk of hyperkalemia is reduced to about 1-2 percent.

It is thus essential to monitor serum potassium levels carefully in any patient receiving amiloride, particularly when it is first introduced, at the time of diuretic dosage adjustments, and during any illness that could affect renal function.

Diabetes Mellitus In diabetic patients, hyperkalemia has been reported with the use of all potassium-conserving diuretics, including amiloride HCl, even in patients without evidence of diabetic nephropathy.

(See WARNINGS .) Lithium generally should not be given with diuretics because they reduce its renal clearance and add a high risk of lithium toxicity.

NSAID: May lead to increased risk of renal impairment and loss of diuretic and antihypertensive effect (7.1).

Potential for Other Drugs to Affect INZIRQO Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Agents: Administration of a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent, including a selective COX-2 inhibitor can reduce the diuretic, natriuretic, and antihypertensive effects of thiazide diuretics.

Diuretics can cause hypovolemia which may precipitate acute kidney injury.

Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Thiazide diuretics have been reported to cause exacerbation or activation of systemic lupus erythematosus.

Therefore, when INZIRQO and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents are used concomitantly, check to determine if the desired effect of the diuretic is obtained.
