Compatibility «Captopril» and «Diclofenac»

• Interactions Captopril with Diclofenac

  • Dangerous interactions
    • ⓘ In the elderly, patients with hypovolemia (in pm receiving diuretics) or impaired renal function, the combined use of NSAIDs, including selective COX-2 inhibitors, with ACE inhibitors, including captopril, may lead to deterioration of renal function, including the possible development of acute renal failure.
    • ⓘ In patients with risk factors (elderly age, hypovolemia, concomitant use of diuretics, impaired renal function), concomitant use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (including cyclooxygenase inhibitors‑2) and ACE inhibitors (including captopril), can lead to deterioration of renal function, up to acute renal failure.
    • ⓘ In elderly patients with hypovolemia (in pm receiving diuretics) or renal insufficiency, the combined use of NSAIDs and ACE inhibitors or ARA II may lead to deterioration of renal function, including the possible development of acute renal failure.
    • ⓘ With the simultaneous use of diclofenac and ACE inhibitors or ARA II in elderly patients with hypovolemia or impaired renal function, signs of deterioration in renal function should be monitored.
  • Negative interactions
    • ⓘ It is necessary to periodically monitor kidney function in patients receiving both captopril and NSAIDs.
    • ⓘ The antihypertensive effect of ACE inhibitors, including captopril, may decrease under the action of NSAIDs.
    • ⓘ NSAIDs, including selective cyclooxygenase‑2 (COX‑2) inhibitors and acetylsalicylic acid in doses of 3 g/day and above, can reduce the antihypertensive effect of diuretics and other antihypertensive agents.
    • ⓘ With the combined use of captopril and indomethacin (and possibly other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, for example, acetylsalicylic acid), there may be a decrease in antihypertensive effect, especially in hypertension, accompanied by low renin activity.
    • ⓘ Kidney function should be periodically monitored in patients taking captopril and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
    • ⓘ NSAIDs can reduce the antihypertensive effect of ACE inhibitors, ARA II or beta-blockers (including propranolol).
    • ⓘ With the simultaneous use of diclofenac and ACE inhibitors, ARA II or beta-blockers, blood pressure should be monitored.
  • Positive interactions
    • ⓘ Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including selective cyclooxygenase‑2 (COX‑2) inhibitors and high doses of acetylsalicylic acid (≥3 g/day).
  • Unclear interactions
    • ⓘ NSAIDs, including selective COX-2 inhibitors.
    • ⓘ ACE inhibitors, ARA II and beta-blockers.

Decoding the colors of interactions and contraindications

Dangerous	—	a pronounced negative interaction or contraindication.
Negative	—	negative interaction or side effect that may reduce effectiveness.
Positive	—	the interaction can SOMETIMES be used as a positive (often a dose adjustment is needed), or it is an indication of the drug.
No	—	the drugs do NOT interact, which is separately indicated in the instructions.
Unclear	—	the system failed to pre-assess the danger.

Additional information

• Kiberis checks interactions and evaluates drug compatibility for free online right in the instructions thanks to the latest artificial intelligence technologies. The accuracy of finding is more than 95%, the accuracy of the hazard assessment is more than 80%. The online medical service takes into account all the drug groups of the selected drugs and all their components. And since the database contains 25,000 drugs with detailed instructions, not every pharmacologist can compete with our artificial intelligence. List of popular interactions.
