Relevance: 11.12.2022 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

In the database of official manuals used in the service creation an interaction registered by statistical results of studies was found, which can either lead to negative consequences for the patient health or strengthen a mutual positive effect. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Consumer:

Using ketorolac together with eplerenone may decrease the effects of eplerenone. Contact your doctor if you experience signs of high blood pressure which may include headache, blurred vision, trouble concentrating, dizziness. And fatigue. If your doctor does prescribe these medications together, you may need a dose adjustment or need your blood pressure more often to safely use both medications. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may attenuate the antihypertensive effect of eplerenone. The proposed mechanism is NSAID-induced inhibition of renal prostaglandin synthesis, which results in unopposed pressor activity producing hypertension. In addition, NSAIDs can cause fluid retention, which also affects blood pressure. Although the interaction has not specifically been studied with eplerenone, it has been reported with other potassium-sparing antihypertensive drugs such as ACE inhibitors. In patients with renal impairment receiving these antihypertensive agents, concomitant use of NSAIDs has also resulted in severe hyperkalemia.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving eplerenone who require prolonged (greater than 1 week) concomitant therapy with an NSAID should have blood pressure monitored more closely following initiation, discontinuation, or change of dosage of the NSAID. The interaction is not expected to occur with low doses (e.g., low-dose aspirin) or intermittent short-term administration of NSAIDs.
