Tương tác
May increase sensitivity to and risk of toxicity of digitalis. May result in antagonistic effect with NSAIDs (e.g. indometacin, ketorolac), corticosteroids, estrogens and combined oral contraceptives. Enhanced hypotensive effect with ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II antagonists, β-blockers, Ca channel blockers, nitrates, adrenergic neurone blockers, general anaesthetics, anxiolytics, hypnotics, MAOI, phenothiazines, alprostadil, aldesleukin, levodopa, baclofen, moxisylyte, tizanidine, and α-blockers (e.g. prazosin). Increased risk of nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity with cisplatin. May exacerbate hypokalaemia with acetazolamide, corticosteroids, amphotericin, reboxetine, β2 sympathomimetics, theophylline, and loop diuretics. Increased risk of nephrotoxicity and hypermagnesaemia with ciclosporin. Increased cardiotoxicity with disopyramide, amiodarone, cardiac glycosides, flecainide, quinidine. Antagonise effects of lidocaine, mexiletine and antidiabetic agents. Increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias with amisulpride, sotalol, atomoxetine, sertindole, terfenadine. May increase risk of postural hypotension with TCAs. May increase the risk of hypersensitivity with allopurinol. May increase risk of lithium toxicity. May reduce absorption with colestipol and colestyramine. Increased risk of hyponatraemia with aminoglutethimide, carbamazepine, chlorpropamide. Increased the risk of hypercalcaemia with calcium salts, toremifene and vitamin D.

Increased risk of postural hypotension with alcohol.
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Hydroflumethiazide is a thiazide diuretic that acts mainly on the distal convoluted tubule to the thick segment of the end limb of the loop of Henle. It inhibits the distal tubular re-absorption of Na and Cl ions resulting in increased urinary loss of K and Mg. Additionally, it increases the renal tubular re-absorption of Ca. Onset: Approx 2 hours. Duration: Up to 24 hours. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Rapidly but incompletely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Time to peak plasma concentration: Approx 1-4 hours. Distribution: Volume of distribution: 6.4 L/kg. Plasma protein binding: Approx 75%. Excretion: Via urine (40-80% as unchanged drug). Plasma elimination half-life: 12.4-26.9 hours.
