Hydrochlorothiazide + Lisinopril
Indications
Hypertension
Adult Dose
Hypertension
10-80 mg lisinopril/6.25-50 mg hydrochlorothiazide PO qDay
Contra Indications
Hypersensitivity to ACE inhibitors, thiazides, or sulfonamides
ACE-inhibitor induced angioedema, hereditary or idiopathic angioedema
Coadministration of neprilysin inhibitors (eg, sacubitril) with ACE inhibitors may increase angioedema risk; do not administer ACE inhibitors within 36 hr of switching to or from sacubitril/valsartan
Anuria or renal stenosis
Do not coadminister with aliskiren in patients with diabetes mellitus or with renal impairment (ie, GFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m²)
Precautions
Begin combination therapy only after failed monotherapy
Severe renal impairment, hepatic impairment
Risk of hypotension, especially with CHF
Angioedema of the face, extremities, lips, tongue, glottis, and larynx has been reported in patients treated with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors
If laryngeal stridor or angioedema of the face, tongue, or glottis occurs discontinue therapy and institute appropriate therapy immediately
Patients receiving coadministration of ACE inhibitor and mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) inhibitor (e.g. temsirolimus, sirolimus, everolimus) therapy may be at increased risk for angioedema Intestinal angioedema has been reported in patients treated with ACE inhibitors
Cholestatic jaundice may occur, which may progress to fulminant hepatic necrosis; discontinue is symptoms occur
Dry hacking nonproductive cough may occur within few months of treatment; consider other causes of cough prior to discontinuation
Hyperkalemia may occur with ACE inhibitors; risk factors include renal dysfunction, diabetes mellitus, and concomitant use of potassium sparing diuretics and potassium supplements; use cautiously if at all with these agents
Thiazide diuretics may cause hypokalemia, hypochloremic alkalosis, hypomagnesemia, and hyponatremia
Hydrochlorothiazide may precipitate gout in patients with familial predisposition to gout or chronic renal failure
Symptomatic hypotension with or without syncope can occur with ACE inhibitors; mostly observed in volume depleted patients, correct volume depletion prior to initiation; monitor closely when initiating and increasing dosing
Agranulocytosis, neutropenia, or leukopenia with myeloid hypoplasia reported with other ACE inhibitor; patients with renal impairment are at high risk; monitor CBC with differential in these patients
Photosensitization may occur
Hydrochlorothiazide may cause acute transient myopia and acute angle-closure glaucoma that may occur within hours of initiating therapy; disc
