Relevance: 21.10.2023 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 hydroCHLOROthiazide together with calcium carbonate can cause your blood calcium levels to become too high. Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms such as dizziness, drowsiness, weakness, lethargy, headache, nausea, vomiting, or seizures. You may need a dose adjustment or special test if you 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: Coadministration of thiazide diuretics with high dosages of calcium and/or vitamin D has been associated with reports of hypercalcemia in some patients. Thiazide diuretics inhibit the renal excretion of calcium and may also enhance responsiveness of bone and renal tubule to parathyroid hormone, thus concurrent use of large amounts of calcium or vitamin D can lead to excessively high plasma levels of calcium. Patients who are particularly susceptible include those with hyperparathyroidism, those being treated for osteoporosis, and those receiving high dosages of vitamin D for hypoparathyroidism. Metabolic alkalosis and the milk-alkali syndrome have been reported during prolonged therapy with thiazide diuretics and calcium.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving thiazide diuretic therapy should be cautioned against self-treatment with calcium and vitamin D supplements without first talking to their healthcare provider. Serum calcium should be monitored if thiazide diuretics are coadministered with high dosages of calcium and/or vitamin D. Patients should be advised to seek medical attention if they experience signs and symptoms of hypercalcemia such as dizziness, weakness, lethargy, headache, myalgia, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, and seizures.
