Lithium intoxication can be precipitated by the use of diuretics, particularly thiazides and metola-zone, and ACE inhibitors. NSAIDs can also precipitate lithium toxicity, mainly due to NSAID inhibition of prostaglandin-dependent renal excretion mechanisms. NSAIDs also impair renal function and cause sodium and water retention, effects which can predispose to interactions. Many case reports describe the antagonistic effects of NSAIDs on diuretics and antihypertensive drugs. The combination of triamterene and indomethacin appears particularly hazardous as it may result in acute renal failure. NSAIDs may also interfere with the beneficial effects of diuretics and ACE inhibitors in heart failure. It is not unusual to see patients whose heart failure has deteriorated in spite of increased doses of frusemide who are also concurrently taking an NSAID. 

The action of thiazides depends in part on renal prostaglandin production. As described for loop diuretics, the actions of thiazides can also be inhibited by NSAIDs under certain conditions.
