Abnormal Glucose Tolerance

Moderate:

Saluron

The hydroflumethiazide in Saluron has a moderate potential interaction with Abnormal Glucose Tolerance.

Thiazide diuretics may cause hyperglycemia and glycosuria in patients with diabetes. They may also precipitate diabetes in prediabetic patients. These effects are usually reversible following discontinuation of the drugs. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with diabetes mellitus, glucose intolerance, or a predisposition to hyperglycemia. Patients with diabetes mellitus should be monitored more closely during thiazide therapy, and their antidiabetic regimen adjusted accordingly.

Anuria

Major:

Saluron

The hydroflumethiazide in Saluron has a major potential interaction with Anuria.

The use of thiazide diuretics is contraindicated in patients with anuria.

Asthma

Moderate:

Saluron

The hydroflumethiazide in Saluron has a moderate potential interaction with Asthma.

Thiazide diuretics should be used with caution in patients with history of bronchial asthma as sensitivity reactions may occur.

Cardiovascular Conditions and Disorders

Moderate:

navepegritide

Navepegritide has a moderate potential interaction with Cardiovascular Conditions and Disorders.

Patients with hemodynamically significant cardiovascular disease were excluded from navepegritide clinical trials. Transient decreases in blood pressure have been reported with a once-daily C-type natriuretic peptide analog. Patients should be advised to contact their health care provider if symptoms of decreased blood pressure occur during therapy.

Dehydration

Major:

Saluron

The hydroflumethiazide in Saluron has a major potential interaction with Dehydration.

The use of thiazide diuretics is commonly associated with loss of electrolytes, most significantly potassium but also sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and magnesium. The loss of other electrolytes such as phosphate, bromide and iodide is usually slight. Potassium and magnesium depletion may lead to cardiac arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Other electrolyte-related complications include metabolic alkalosis and hyponatremia, which are rarely life-threatening. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to fluid and electrolyte depletion, including patients with primary or secondary aldosteronism (may have low potassium levels); those with severe or prolonged diarrhea or vomiting; and those with poor nutritional status. Fluid and electrolyte abnormalities should be corrected prior to initiating therapy, and blood pressure as well as serum electrolyte concentrations monitored periodically and maintained at normal ranges during therapy. Patients should be advised to immediately report signs and symptoms of fluid or electrolyte imbalance, including dry mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pains or cramps, muscular fatigue, hypotension, oliguria, tachycardia, arrhythmia, or gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting. Digitalized patients and patients with a history of ventricular arrhythmias should be monitored carefully, since development of hypokalemia may be particularly dangerous in these patients. The risk of hypokalemia may be minimized by slow diuresis, a lower thiazide dosage, potassium supplementation, or combined use with a potassium-sparing diuretic.

Diabetes Mellitus

Moderate:

Saluron

The hydroflumethiazide in Saluron has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

Thiazide diuretics may cause hyperglycemia and glycosuria in patients with diabetes. They may also precipitate diabetes in prediabetic patients.

Renal Dysfunction

Major:

Saluron

The hydroflumethiazide in Saluron has a major potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Thiazide diuretics may be ineffective when the glomerular filtration rate is low (GFR < 25 mL/min) because they are not expected to be filtered into the renal tubule, their site of action. In addition, thiazide diuretics decrease the GFR and may precipitate azotemia in renal disease. Cumulative effects may also develop because most of these drugs are excreted unchanged in the urine by glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion. Therapy with thiazide diuretics should be administered cautiously at reduced dosages in patients with renal impairment. If renal function becomes progressively worse, as indicated by rising BUN or serum creatinine levels, an interruption or discontinuation of thiazide therapy should be considered.

Moderate:

navepegritide

Navepegritide has a moderate potential interaction with Renal Dysfunction.

Navepegritide is not recommended for patients with moderate or severe renal dysfunction (estimated GFR less than 60 mL/min/1.73 m2). No dosage adjustment is needed for patients with mild renal dysfunction (estimated GFR at least 60 mL/min/1.73 m2).
