Compliance. Multidrug therapy poses a substantial problem of compliance. Since treatment will be lifelong it is well worthwhile taking the trouble to find the most convenient regimen for each individual. A single daily dose would be ideal and to achieve this sustained-release formulations and fixed-dose combinations are used. Examples include Tenoretic (atenolol + chlortalidone), Tenif (atenolol + nifedipine) and Zestoretic (lisinopril + hydrochlorothiazide). 

Lisinopril/hydrochlorothiazide is antihypertensive combination. Lisinopril competitively inhibits angiotensin I-converting enzyme and prevents angiotensin I conversion to angiotensin n, reversing the potassium loss associated with the diuretic. Hydrochlorothiazide increases chloride, sodium, and water excretion by interfering with transport of sodium ions across renal tubular epithehum. They are indicated in the treatment of hypertension. 

A 46-year-old woman with a 6-year history of diabetes mellitus and previously normal renal function developed anuria, hearing loss, myoclonus, and confusion with hallucinations. She was taking lisinopril, hydrochlorothiazide, furose-mide, atorvastatin, omeprazole, salmeterol/fluti-casone and salbutamol by inhalation, metformin, insulin, oxycodone, alprazolam, ven-lafaxine, and gabapentin 300 mg tds. The gabapentin blood concentration was 17.6 mg/1. All her symptoms improved after one session of hemodialysis and had resolved at the time of discharge 4 days later.

A small, prospective, double-blind, randomized trial compared lisinopril with hydrochlorothiazide in 35 patients with primary hypertension, LVH, and LV diastolic dysfunction. After 6 months of therapy, lisinopril caused regression of myocardial fibrosis and improved LV diastolic function, although LVH was unchanged.

IV) was developed to include the separation of hydrochlorothiazide as well. These methods (l-IV) all utilize a Lichrosorb RP-8 column, 10 pm at 40°C or 50°C. Method (IV) uses a somewhat longer column (300 x 4.6 mm) and it was found that as a result of the increased length, column temperature could be reduced to 40°C while maintaining good peak efficiency (see Section 5.2.2.1). This method is also capable of separating lisinopril diketopiperazine SSS from the SSR isomer as well. 

The risk of ACE inhibitor-induced renal impairment in patients with or without renovascular disease can be potentiated by diuretics. " In an analysis of 74 patients who had been treated with captopril or lisinopril, reversible acute renal failure was more coimnon in those who were also treated with a diuretic (furosemide and/or hydrochlorothiazide) than those who were not (11 of 33 patients compared with 1 of 41 patients). Similarly, in a prescription-event monitoring study, enalapril was associated with raised creatinine or urea in 75 patients and it was thought to have contributed to the deterioration in renal function and subsequent deaths in 10 of these patients. However, 9 of these 10 were also receiving loop or thiazide diuretics, sometimes in high doses. Retrospective analysis of a controlled study in patients with hypertensive nephrosclerosis identified 8 of 34 patients who developed reversible renal impairment when treated with enalapril and various other antihypertensives including a diuretic (furosemide or hydrochlorothiazide). In contrast, 23 patients treated with placebo and various other antihypertensives did not develop renal impairment. Subsequently, enalapril was tolerated by 7 of the 8 patients without deterioration in renal function and 6 of these patients later received diuretics. One patient was again treated with enalapril with recurrence of renal impairment, but discontinuation of the diuretics (furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide, and triamterene) led to an improvement in renal function despite the continuation of enalapril. ... 

In one study, sulindac 200 mg twice daily given to patients taking capto-pril 100 to 200 mg twice daily caused only a small rise in blood pressure (from 132/92 to 137/95 mmHg). Sulindac 150 mg twice daily did not attenuate the blood pressure response to captopril when it was substituted for ibuprofen in an elderly woman. Similarly, sulindac 200 mg twice daily did not blunt the antihypertensive effect of enalapril in 9 patients with hypertension. Two studies in black women also found that sulindac 200 mg twice daily for one month did not alter the antihypertensive effect of fosinopril 10 to 40 mg daily or lisinopril 10 to 40 mg daily (given with hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg daily). - ...
