irbesartan/hydrochlorothiazide (Rx)

Hypertension

150 mg/12.5 mg PO qDay initially; if needed, after 1-2 weeks may titrate up to 300 mg/25 mg PO qDay

Hepatic impairment

• No dosage adjustment necessary in patients with hepatic impairment

Renal impairment

• Usual regimens of therapy may be followed as long as the patient’s creatinine clearance is >30 mL/min; in patients with more severe renal impairment, loop diuretics are preferred to thiazides, so this drug combination is not recommended

Dosing considerations

Not recommended as initial therapy in patients with intravascular volume depletion

Maximum antihypertensive effects are attained within 2-4 weeks after change in dose

In patients not controlled on monotherapy with irbesartan or hydrochlorothiazide, recommended doses of this drug combination, in order of increasing mean effect, are (irbesartan and hydrochlorothiazide) 150/12.5 mg, 300/12.5 mg, and 300/25 mg; the largest incremental effect will likely be in the transition from monotherapy to 150/12.5 mg

Modify Therapy/Monitor Closely.Minor (1)hydrochlorothiazide will increase the level or effect of triamterene by basic (cationic) drug competition for renal tubular clearance. Minor/Significance Unknown.

• trientine

  Monitor Closely (1)hydrochlorothiazide decreases levels of trientine by increasing renal clearance. Use Caution/Monitor.

• trilostane

  Minor (1)trilostane, hydrochlorothiazide. Other (see comment). Minor/Significance Unknown. Comment: Trilostane reduces K+ loss while maintaining the natriuretic effect. Mechanism: inhibition of mineralocorticoid steroid synthesis.

• trimethoprim

  Monitor Closely (1)trimethoprim and irbesartan both increase serum potassium. Use Caution/Monitor. Trimethoprim decreases urinary potassium excretion. May cause hyperkalemia, particularly with high doses, renal insufficiency, or when combined with other drugs that cause hyperkalemia.Minor (2)hydrochlorothiazide will increase the level or effect of trimethoprim by basic (cationic) drug competition for renal tubular clearance. Minor/Significance Unknown.
  
  hydrochlorothiazide, trimethoprim. Mechanism: unspecified interaction mechanism. Minor/Significance Unknown. Risk of hyponatremia.

• tucatinib

  Serious - Use Alternative (1)irbesartan will increase the level or effect of tucatinib by Other (see comment). Avoid or Use Alternate Drug. Coadministration of tucatinib (a CYP2C8 substrate) with a strong or moderate CYP2C8 inhibitors increases tucatinib plasma concentrations and risk of toxicities.

• umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol inhaled

  Monitor Closely (1)umeclidinium bromide/vilanterol inhaled and hydrochlorothiazide both decrease serum potassium. Modify Therapy/Monitor Closely. Electrocardiographic changes and/or hypokalemia associated with non?potassium-sparing diuretics may worsen with concomitant beta-agonists, particularly if recommended dose is exceeded

• valganciclovir

  Minor (1)hydrochlorothiazide will increase the level or effect of valganciclovir by acidic (anionic) drug competition for renal tubular clearance. Minor/Significance Unknown.

• valsartan

  Monitor Closely (1)valsartan increases and hydrochlorothiazide decreases serum potassium. Effect of interaction is not clear, use caution. Use Caution/Monitor.

• verapamil

  Minor (1)hydrochlorothiazide will increase the level or effect of verapamil by basic (cationic) drug competition for renal tubular clearance. Minor/Significance Unknown.

• verteporfin

  Minor (1)hydrochlorothiazide, verteporfin. Mechanism: pharmacodynamic synergism. Minor/Significance Unknown. Increased phototoxicity.

• vilanterol/fluticasone furoate inhaled

  Monitor Closely (1)vilanterol/fluticasone furoate inhaled and hydrochlorothiazide both decrease serum potassium. Modify Therapy/Monitor Closely. Beta-agonists may acutely worsen ECG changes and/or hypokalemia resulting from non-potassium-sparing diuretics

• vildagliptin

  Minor (1)hydrochlorothiazide decreases effects of vildagliptin by pharmacodynamic antagonism. Minor/Significance Unknown. Thiazide dosage >50 mg/day may increase blood glucose.

• vitamin D

  Monitor Closely (1)hydrochlorothiazide increases effects of vitamin D by Other (see comment). Use Caution/Monitor. Comment: Combination may increase hypercalcemic effect of vitamin D analogs. Use with caution.

• voclosporin

  Monitor Closely (2)voclosporin and irbesartan both increase serum potassium. Use Caution/Monitor.
  
  voclosporin, irbesartan. Either increases toxicity of the other by nephrotoxicity and/or ototoxicity. Modify Therapy/Monitor Closely. Coadministration with drugs associated with nephrotoxicity may increase the risk for acute and/or chronic nephrotoxicity.

• willow bark

  Minor (1)hydrochlorothiazide will increase the level or effect of willow bark by acidic (anionic) drug competition for renal tubular clearance. Minor/Significance Unknown.

• xipamide

  Monitor Closely (2)xipamide increases effects of hydrochlorothiazide by pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor.
  
  xipamide increases effects of irbesartan by pharmacodynamic synergism. Use Caution/Monitor.

• zavegepant intranasal

  Serious - Use Alternative (1)irbesartan will increase the level or effect of zavegepant intranasal by Other (see comment). Avoid or Use Alternate Drug. NTCP inhibitors may result in a significant increase in systemic exposure of zavegepant (a NTCP substrate).
