Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

captopril hydroCHLOROthiazide

Applies to: Capozide 25 / 25 (captopril / hydrochlorothiazide) and Capozide 25 / 25 (captopril / hydrochlorothiazide)

Although captopril and hydroCHLOROthiazide are frequently combined together, their effects may be additive on lowering your blood pressure. You may need a dose adjustment or special tests to safely take both medications. Contact your doctor if you have a reduced heart rate, dizziness, fainting, or headaches. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Moderate

captopril canagliflozin

Applies to: Capozide 25 / 25 (captopril / hydrochlorothiazide) and canagliflozin

Canagliflozin may cause salt and water loss, which may increase the risk of dehydration and low blood pressure when used with captopril or similar medications. You may experience headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and/or changes in pulse or heart rate. Use caution when getting up from a sitting or lying position, and let your doctor know if you develop these symptoms. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Keep yourself hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids unless otherwise directed. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

hydroCHLOROthiazide canagliflozin

Applies to: Capozide 25 / 25 (captopril / hydrochlorothiazide) and canagliflozin

Canagliflozin may add to the diuretic effects of hydroCHLOROthiazide. This may increase the risk of dehydration, kidney problems, and low blood pressure. You may experience headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and/or changes in pulse or heart rate. Use caution when getting up from a sitting or lying position, and let your doctor know if you develop these symptoms. Keep yourself hydrated by drinking plenty of fluids unless otherwise directed. You should seek medical advice immediately if you have reduced oral intake (for example, due to acute illness) or increased fluid loss (for example, due to vomiting, diarrhea, or excessive heat exposure), as it may be appropriate to interrupt one or both medications temporarily under these circumstances. In addition, hydroCHLOROthiazide may interfere with blood glucose control and reduce the effectiveness of canagliflozin and other diabetic medications. Monitor your blood sugar levels closely. You may need a dose adjustment of your diabetic medications during and after treatment with hydroCHLOROthiazide. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

captopril food

Applies to: Capozide 25 / 25 (captopril / hydrochlorothiazide)

It is recommended that if you are taking captopril you should be advised to avoid moderately high or high potassium dietary intake. This can cause high levels of potassium in your blood. Do not use salt substitutes or potassium supplements while taking captopril, unless your doctor has told you to.

canagliflozin food

Applies to: canagliflozin

Alcohol may affect blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes. Both hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) may occur, depending on how much and how often you drink. You should avoid using alcohol if your diabetes is not well controlled or if you have high triglycerides, neuropathy (nerve damage), or pancreatitis. Moderate alcohol consumption generally does not affect blood glucose levels if your diabetes is under control. However, it may be best to limit alcohol intake to one drink daily for women and two drinks daily for men (1 drink = 5 oz wine, 12 oz beer, or 1.5 oz distilled spirits) in conjunction with your normal meal plan. Avoid drinking alcohol on an empty stomach or following exercise, as it may increase the risk of hypoglycemia. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Captopril and ethanol may have additive effects in lowering your blood pressure. You may experience headache, dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, and/or changes in pulse or heart rate. These side effects are most likely to be seen at the beginning of treatment, following a dose increase, or when treatment is restarted after an interruption. Let your doctor know if you develop these symptoms and they do not go away after a few days or they become troublesome. Avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medications affect you, and use caution when getting up from a sitting or lying position. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
