Interação entre Eplerenona e Quinapril + hidroclorotiazida

…• serum creatinine > 2.0 mg/dL in males or >1.8 mg/dL in females, • creatinine clearance < 50 mL/min, or • concomitant administration of potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretics (e.g., amiloride, spironolactone, or triamterene) [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1) , Adverse Reactions (6.2) , Drug Interactions (7) , and Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)…

• Concomitant use of potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretics ( 4 )

ACE Inhibitors and Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists The risk of hyperkalemia increases when eplerenone is used in combination with an ACE inhibitor and/or an ARB.

Lithium toxicity has been reported in patients receiving lithium concomitantly with diuretics and ACE inhibitors.

The administration of other potassium-sparing antihypertensives with NSAIDs has been shown to reduce the antihypertensive effect in some patients and result in severe hyperkalemia in patients with impaired renal function.

…sometimes associated with oliguria and/or progressive azotemia, and rarely acute renal failure and/or death, include patients with the following conditions or characteristics: heart failure, hyponatremia, high dose diuretic therapy, recent intensive diuresis or increase in diuretic dose, renal dialysis or severe volume and/or salt depletion of any etiology.

The thiazide component of quinapril and hydrochlorothiazide tablets may potentiate the action of other antihypertensive drugs, especially ganglionic or peripheral adrenergic- blocking drugs.

Such patients should be followed closely for the first 2 weeks of treatment and whenever the dosage of quinapril or diuretic is increased.

In clinical studies in hypertensive patients with unilateral renal artery stenosis, treatment with ACE inhibitors was associated with increases in blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine; these increases were reversible upon discontinuation of ACE inhibitor, concomitant diuretic, or both.

Some quinapril-treated hypertensive patients with no apparent preexisting renal vascular diseases have developed increases in blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine, usually minor and transient, especially when quinapril has been given concomitantly with a diuretic.
