    enalapril, sulindac. Either increases toxicity of the other by Other (see comment). Use Caution/Monitor. Comment: May result in renal function deterioration, particularly in elderly or volume depleted individuals.

  • synthetic human angiotensin II

    enalapril increases effects of synthetic human angiotensin II by unspecified interaction mechanism. Use Caution/Monitor.

  • tadalafil

    tadalafil increases effects of enalapril by pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor. Risk of hypotension.

  • temsirolimus

    enalapril, temsirolimus. Either increases toxicity of the other by Other (see comment). Use Caution/Monitor. Comment: Coadministration increases risk of angioedema.

  • tenapanor

    tenapanor decreases levels of enalapril by Other (see comment). Modify Therapy/Monitor Closely. Comment: Tenapanor inhibits intestinal uptake transporter, OATP2B1; peak exposure (Cmax) of enalapril and its active metabolite, enalaprilat, decreases significantly when both drugs administered concomitantly; monitor blood pressure and increase dosage of enalapril, if needed, when coadministered with this drug.

  • terazosin

    enalapril, terazosin. Mechanism: pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor. Exaggerated first dose hypotensive response.

  • tolazamide

    enalapril increases effects of tolazamide by pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor.

  • tolbutamide

    enalapril increases effects of tolbutamide by pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor.

  • tolmetin

    enalapril, tolmetin. Either increases toxicity of the other by Other (see comment). Use Caution/Monitor. Comment: May result in renal function deterioration, particularly in elderly or volume depleted individuals.

  • torsemide

    enalapril, torsemide. Mechanism: pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor. Risk of acute hypotension, renal insufficiency.

  • triamterene

    enalapril, triamterene. Mechanism: pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor. Risk of hyperkalemia.

  • trimethoprim

    trimethoprim and enalapril both increase serum potassium. Use Caution/Monitor. Trimethoprim decreases urinary potassium excretion. May cause hyperkalemia, particularly with high doses, renal insufficiency, or when combined with other drugs that cause hyperkalemia.

  • voclosporin

    voclosporin and enalapril both increase serum potassium. Use Caution/Monitor.voclosporin, enalapril. Either increases toxicity of the other by nephrotoxicity and/or ototoxicity. Modify Therapy/Monitor Closely. Coadministration with drugs associated with nephrotoxicity may increase the risk for acute and/or chronic nephrotoxicity.

  • xipamide

    xipamide increases effects of enalapril by pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor.

  • zotepine

    enalapril, zotepine. Mechanism: pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor. Exaggerated first dose hypotensive response.

  • Which patient receiving losartan needs to be monitored closely?

    Patients with systolic blood pressure <80 mm Hg, low serum sodium, diabetes mellitus, and impaired renal function should be closely monitored (ACC/AHA).

    What is the contraindication of losartan?

    Contraindicated (1) In patients who are elderly, volume-depleted (including those on diuretic therapy), or with compromised renal function, coadministration of ARBS with drugs that affect RAAS may increase the risk of renal impairment (including acute renal failure) and cause loss of antihypertensive effect.

    Does losartan cause hyperkalemia?

    Losartan can increase the levels of a substance called potassium in your blood. Taking losartan with drugs that contain potassium, potassium supplements, or salt substitutes with potassium, can increase your risk of hyperkalemia (high levels of potassium).

    Does losartan lower systolic or diastolic pressure?

    Results: All doses of losartan potassium significantly decreased mean systolic 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (range -9.4 to -14.2 mmHg; P < or = 0.01) and mean diastolic 24-h ambulatory blood pressure (range -5.6 to -9.0 mmHg; P < or = 0.01) compared with placebo.
