special instructions
With hyponatremia / decrease in BCC, symptomatic arterial hypotension may occur. Before the start of the course, it is necessary to restore the sodium content / replenish the BCC, therapy begins under close medical supervision.
In cases of a pronounced decrease in blood pressure, the patient must be laid in a horizontal position, raising his legs, if necessary, a 0.9% sodium chloride solution is administered (by intravenous infusion). After the hemodynamic parameters stabilize, treatment can be continued.
When using Vamloset, due to the likelihood of dizziness, nausea and fatigue when driving, caution is required.
Drug interactions
Vamloset
Combinations requiring attention: other drugs with an antihypertensive effect, including diuretics, alpha-blockers, and drugs that have an antihypertensive effect, including tricyclic antidepressants, alpha-blockers, used in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia, - an increase in the hypotensive effect.
Amlodipine
Undesirable combinations: grapefruit juice / grapefruit - the likelihood of an increase in bioavailability in some patients and an increase in the hypotensive effect.
Combinations requiring caution:
- inhibitors (strong or moderate) of the CYP3A4 isoenzyme, including protease inhibitors, diltiazem or verapamil, azole antifungals, macrolides such as clarithromycin or erythromycin: significant increase in systemic exposure to amlodipine; in elderly patients, such disorders are clinically significant, therefore, dose adjustment and medical supervision are required for them;
- simvastatin: a significant increase in its exposure (it is not recommended to exceed a dose of 20 mg of simvastatin per day);
- inducers of the CYP3A4 isoenzyme - drugs with an anticonvulsant effect, including phosphenytoin, carbamazepine, phenytoin, phenobarbital, primidone, as well as rifamycin, phytopreparations containing St. John's wort: the likelihood of a decrease in the plasma concentration of amlodipine in the blood;
- dantrolene (intravenous): the likelihood of a violation of the cardiovascular system (cardiovascular failure associated with hyperkalemia, fatal ventricular fibrillation); in patients with a tendency to develop malignant hyperthermia, the combination is not recommended.
Valsartan
Contraindicated combinations: aliskiren - combined use is contraindicated in diabetes mellitus and impaired renal function (with creatinine clearance <60 ml / min).
Undesirable combinations:
- lithium: the likelihood of a reversible increase in the plasma concentration of lithium in the blood and the development of intoxication; in cases of the need for combined use with lithium preparations, careful monitoring of the plasma concentration of lithium in the blood is required;
- potassium preparations, potassium-sparing diuretics / nutritional supplements and other drugs / substances that can lead to an increase in serum potassium in the blood, including heparin: in cases of need for combined use, it is necessary to control the plasma potassium in the blood.
Combinations requiring caution:
- nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including selective COX-2 inhibitors, acetylsalicylic acid in a daily dose of 3000 mg and other non-selective NSAIDs: weakening the hypotensive effect, increasing the likelihood of impaired renal function and increasing the plasma potassium content in the blood; at the beginning of the course, an assessment of renal function is shown, as well as correction of violations of water and electrolyte metabolism;
- transporter protein inhibitors, including ritonavir, rifampicin, cyclosporin: an increase in systemic exposure to valsartan, which should be taken into account at the beginning / at the end of combination therapy.
