Diazoxide Disease Interactions
There are 5 disease interactions with diazoxide.
Diazoxide (applies to diazoxide) arrhythmias
Moderate Potential Hazard, High plausibility.
The use of diazoxide is associated with compensatory tachycardia. Therapy with diazoxide should be administered cautiously in patients with tachycardia.
Diazoxide (applies to diazoxide) congestive heart failure
Moderate Potential Hazard, High plausibility. Applicable conditions: Fluid Retention
Diazoxide may lead to significant fluid retention, which may precipitate congestive heart failure in patients with impaired cardiac reserve. The fluid retention will respond to conventional therapy with diuretics. Therapy with diazoxide should be administered cautiously in patients with congestive heart failure.
Diazoxide (applies to diazoxide) gout
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility.
Diazoxide can increase serum uric acid levels due to decreased excretion. This should be kept in mind, particularly in patients with hyperuricemia or a history of gout.
Diazoxide (applies to diazoxide) pulmonary hypertension
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility.
There have been postmarketing reports of pulmonary hypertension in infants and neonates treated with diazoxide. The cases were reversible upon discontinuation of the drug. Patients should be carefully monitored, especially those with risk factors for pulmonary hypertension, or respiratory distress. Diazoxide should be discontinued if pulmonary hypertension is suspected.
Diazoxide (applies to diazoxide) renal impairment
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Renal Dysfunction
The plasma half-life of diazoxide is prolonged in patients with impaired renal function. A reduced dosage should be considered. Serum electrolyte levels should also be evaluated for such patients. Caution and monitoring is advised.
