Major Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility
ACTH - fluid retention
Adrenocorticotropic agents may cause hypernatremia, hypokalemia, fluid retention, and elevation in blood pressure. Therapy with these agents, particularly if intended for longer than brief periods, should be administered cautiously in patients with preexisting fluid retention or conditions that may be aggravated by these effects. Dietary sodium restriction and potassium supplementation may be advisable. The manufacturers consider the use of adrenocorticotropic agents to be contraindicated in patients with congestive heart failure or uncontrolled hypertension.
