See Individual agents (Propranolol and Hydrochlorothiazide)
Contraindications to Propranolol and Hydrochlorothiazide (Inderide):
- Hypersensitivity to the following:
- Propranolol
- Hydrochlorothiazide
- Beta-blockers and other medications
- Other sulfonamide derived drugs
- Any component of the formulation
- Heart failure (except if the failure is caused by tachyarrhythmias treated with propranolol).
- Cardiogenic shock
- Sinus bradycardia
- Heart block greater than the 1st degree
- Bronchial asthma
- Anuria
Note:
- Although according to some product labeling this medication is contraindicated with other sulfonamide-containing drug classes, the scientific basis of this statement has been challenged.
- See "Warnings/Precautions" for more detail. There is limited documentation on allergenic cross-reactivity between thiazide-related diuretics.
- Cross-sensitivity is possible due to similarities in chemical structure and/or pharmaceutical actions. However, this cannot be ruled out.
Warnings and precautions
-
Anaphylactic reactions
- Patients with severe allergies to allergens should be cautious when using beta-blockers. This could make them more sensitive to repeated challenges.
- Anaphylaxis treatment (eg, epinephrine) in patients taking beta-blockers may be ineffective or promote undesirable effects.
-
Electrolyte disturbances:
- These electrolyte abnormalities can be caused by:
- Hypokalemia
- Hypochloremic alkalosis
- Hypomagnesemia
- Hyponatremia
- Before initiation, it is important to correct electrolyte disturbances.
- These electrolyte abnormalities can be caused by:
-
Gout
- The use of hydrochlorothiazide can precipitate gout in certain patients with a history of gout, a familial predisposition to gout, or chronic renal failure.
- Doses greater than 25 mg may increase the risk.
-
Ocular effects
- Hydrochlorothiazide may cause acute transient myopia or acute angle-closure vision loss.
- These symptoms typically occur within hours to weeks of therapy initiation.
- Therapy should be stopped for patients experiencing acute visual acuity decreases or severe ocular pain.
- Additional treatment may be required if the intraocular pressure is not controlled.
- The risk factors include a history of penicillin allergy or sulfonamide allergy.
-
Photosensitivity
- Hydrochlorothiazide may cause photosensitization.
-
Allergy to sulfonamide ("sulfa")
- FDA-approved product labels for medications that are part of the sulfonamide chemical family include a wide contraindication for patients who have had an allergic reaction to sulfonamides.
- There is a possibility of cross-reactivity between members from a particular class (e.g., 2 antibiotics sulfonamides).
- Crossreactivity concerns have been raised previously for all compounds with the sulfonamide structural (SO NH).
- A deeper understanding of allergic mechanisms has shown that cross-reactivity between non-antibiotic sulfonamides and antibiotic sulfonamides is unlikely.
- Nonantibiotic sulfonamides are less likely to cause anaphylaxis (a mechanism of cross-reaction due primarily to antibody production).
- T-cell-mediated (type IV), reactions are less well understood. This makes it difficult to exclude the possibility based on current knowledge.
- These classes are sometimes avoided by some clinicians in severe cases of reactions (Stevens Johnson syndrome/TEN).
-
Bariatric surgery
- Dehydration: Avoid diuretics in the first 24 hours after bariatric surgery.
- There is a chance of electrolyte disturbances, and dehydration. If necessary, diuretics may be resumed once oral fluid intake goals have been met.
-
Bronchospastic disease
- Patients with bronchospastic diseases should avoid beta-blockers. If they are given, be careful and closely monitored.
-
Conductive abnormality
- Before you start, it is important to consider any pre-existing conditions like sick sinus syndrome.
-
Diabetes:
- Diabetes mellitus patients should be cautious. It may lead to hypoglycemia, and/or mask symptoms.
-
Heart failure (HF):
- In compensated HF, use caution. Monitor for signs of worsening (efficacy in HF of propranolol has not been proven).
-
Hepatic impairment
- Avoid using this product if you have a severe hepatic impairment.
-
Hypercalcemia:
- Thiazide diuretics may decrease renal calcium excretion; patients with hypercalcemia should avoid their use.
-
Hypercholesterolemia:
- Patients with high or moderate cholesterol levels should not take hydrochlorothiazide.
-
Myasthenia gravis:
- Myasthenia gravis: Be careful
-
Parathyroid disease
- Thiazide diuretics reduce calcium excretion; prolonged use can cause pathologic changes in parathyroid glands, including hypophosphatemia and hypercalcemia. Stop using thiazide before testing for parathyroid function.
-
Raynaud and peripheral vascular disease (PVD).
- Patients with Raynaud and PVD may experience symptoms of arterial insufficiency that can be exacerbated or precipitated.
- Be cautious and watch for signs of arterial obstruction.
-
Untreated Pheochromocytoma
- You must have adequate alpha-blockade before you can use any beta-blocker.
-
Angina Prinzmetal version:
- Patients with Prinzmetal variant Angina should avoid Beta-blockers that do not block alpha-1-adrenergic activity. This can worsen anginal symptoms.
-
Psoriasis:
- Although beta-blocker may cause or exacerbate psoriasis symptoms, the cause and effect of this medication are not known.
-
Renal impairment
- Side effects can be more severe in those with renal impairment.
-
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE):
- Hydrochlorothiazide may trigger or exacerbation of SLE.
-
Thyroid disease:
- Hyperthyroidism signs (e.g., tachycardia), may be hidden.
- Thyrotoxicosis is a condition that can be treated with care. Sudden withdrawal may lead to hyperthyroidism, or even a thyroid storm.
- Thyroid function tests may be affected.
