Applies to: Vyduo (nebivolol / valsartan) and ticagrelor
Ventricular pauses and bradycardia, mostly asymptomatic, have been observed in clinical studies with ticagrelor. Theoretically, the risk of symptomatic bradycardia may be increased during concomitant use of other agents known to induce bradycardia. However, in PLATO, a large, randomized, double-blind efficacy and safety comparison study with clopidogrel in patients with acute coronary syndromes, no evidence of clinically significant adverse interactions was observed during concomitant administration with one or more drugs known to induce bradycardia including beta-blockers (96%), the calcium channel blockers diltiazem and verapamil (33%), and digoxin (4%).

GENERALLY AVOID: Moderate-to-high dietary intake of potassium, especially salt substitutes, may increase the risk of hyperkalemia in some patients who are using angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). ARBs can promote hyperkalemia through inhibition of angiotensin II-induced aldosterone secretion. Patients with diabetes, heart failure, dehydration, or renal insufficiency have a greater risk of developing hyperkalemia.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should receive dietary counseling and be advised to not use potassium-containing salt substitutes or over-the-counter potassium supplements without consulting their physician. If salt substitutes are used concurrently, regular monitoring of serum potassium levels is recommended. Patients should also be advised to seek medical attention if they experience symptoms of hyperkalemia such as weakness, irregular heartbeat, confusion, tingling of the extremities, or feelings of heaviness in the legs.
