hydroCHLOROthiazide quinapril
Applies to: Quinaretic (hydrochlorothiazide / quinapril) and Quinaretic (hydrochlorothiazide / quinapril)
MONITOR: Although they are frequently combined in clinical practice, diuretics and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors may have additive effects. Coadministration makes hypotension and hypovolemia more likely than does either drug alone. Some ACE inhibitors may attenuate the increase in the urinary excretion of sodium caused by some loop diuretics. Some patients on diuretics, especially those on dialysis or a dietary salt restriction, may experience acute hypotension with lightheadedness and dizziness after receiving the first dose of the ACE inhibitor. In addition, ACE inhibitors may cause renal insufficiency or acute renal failure in patients with sodium depletion or renal artery stenosis.
MANAGEMENT: Monitoring of blood pressure, diuresis, electrolytes, and renal function is recommended during coadministration. The possibility of first-dose hypotensive effects may be minimized by initiating therapy with small doses of the ACE inhibitor, or either discontinuing the diuretic temporarily or increasing the salt intake approximately one week prior to initiating an ACE inhibitor. Alternatively, the patient may remain under medical supervision for at least two hours after the first dose of the ACE inhibitor, or until blood pressure has stabilized.

quinapril peginesatide
Applies to: Quinaretic (hydrochlorothiazide / quinapril) and peginesatide
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors may interfere with the effects of both endogenous and exogenous erythropoietin, although data are conflicting with respect to the latter. A retrospective investigation of 43 dialysis patients treated with human recombinant erythropoietin for an average of ten months found that the group also receiving captopril had lower hemoglobin and hematocrit levels than the control group when given the same dosage of erythropoietin, and the difference was statistically significant. However, another retrospective investigation found no significant differences in the mean hematocrit level and erythropoietin dosage in 14 stable hemodialysis patients for up to 16 weeks before and 16 weeks after initiation of ACE inhibitor therapy. Previous studies have suggested that ACE inhibitors may interfere with hematopoiesis by decreasing the synthesis of endogenous erythropoietin or decreasing bone marrow production of red blood cells, but an actual pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic interaction with erythropoietin has not been reported. Until further data are available, it may be appropriate to monitor patients for potentially diminished hematopoietic response to recombinant erythropoietin therapy following the addition of an ACE inhibitor. It is not known if other erythropoiesis-stimulating agents are similarly affected.

Drug and food interactions
quinapril food
Applies to: Quinaretic (hydrochlorothiazide / quinapril)
GENERALLY AVOID: Moderate-to-high dietary intake of potassium can cause hyperkalemia in some patients who are using angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. In some cases, affected patients were using a potassium-rich salt substitute. ACE inhibitors can promote hyperkalemia through inhibition of the renin-aldosterone-angiotensin (RAA) system.
MANAGEMENT: It is recommended that patients who are taking ACE inhibitors be advised to avoid moderately high or high potassium dietary intake. Particular attention should be paid to the potassium content of salt substitutes.

hydroCHLOROthiazide food
Applies to: Quinaretic (hydrochlorothiazide / quinapril)
MONITOR: Many psychotherapeutic and CNS-active agents (e.g., anxiolytics, sedatives, hypnotics, antidepressants, antipsychotics, opioids, alcohol, muscle relaxants) exhibit hypotensive effects, especially during initiation of therapy and dose escalation. Coadministration with antihypertensives and other hypotensive agents, in particular vasodilators and alpha-blockers, may result in additive effects on blood pressure and orthostasis.
MANAGEMENT: Caution and close monitoring for development of hypotension is advised during coadministration of these agents. Some authorities recommend avoiding alcohol in patients receiving vasodilating antihypertensive drugs. Patients should be advised to avoid rising abruptly from a sitting or recumbent position and to notify their physician if they experience dizziness, lightheadedness, syncope, orthostasis, or tachycardia.
