CoAprovel 300/12.5mg Tablets – Irbesartan Hydrochlorothiazide, 28 Tablets

CoAprovel 300/12.5mg Tablets is a fixed-dose combination indicated in adult patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled on irbesartan or hydrochlorothiazide alone. This unique combination product provides efficacy comparable to that of other antihypertensive agents, with a significantly lower incidence of adverse effects. The tolerability and effectiveness of CoAprovel have been demonstrated in clinical trials involving over 3000 patients. This product is an important option for the treatment of hypertension, and offers patients a safe and effective way to control their blood pressure.

How does CoAprovel work?

Irbesartan is an ‘angiotensin-II-receptor antagonist’, which means that it blocks the action of a hormone in the body called angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a powerful vasoconstrictor (a substance that narrows blood vessels). By blocking the receptors to which angiotensin II normally attaches, irbesartan stops the hormone having an effect, allowing the blood vessels to widen.

Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic, which is another type of treatment for hypertension. It works by increasing urine output, reducing the amount of fluid in the blood and lowering the blood pressure.

The combination of the two active substances has an additive effect, reducing the blood pressure more than either medicine alone. By lowering the blood pressure, the risks associated with high blood pressure, such as having a stroke, are reduced.

Product Details

Product Information of CoAprovel 300/12.5mg Tablets

What you need to know before you take CoAprovel

Do not take CoAprovel

  • if you are allergic to irbesartan or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6)
  • if you are allergic to hydrochlorothiazide or any other sulfonamide-derived medicines
  • if you are more than 3 months pregnant. (It is also better to avoid CoAprovel in early pregnancy – see pregnancy section)
  • if you have severe liver or kidney problems
  • if you have difficulty in producing urine
  • if your doctor determines that you have persistently high calcium or low potassium levels in your blood
  • if you have diabetes or impaired kidney function and you are treated with a blood pressure lowering medicine containing aliskiren.

 

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your doctor before taking CoAprovel and if any of the following apply to you:

  • if you get excessive vomiting or diarrhoea
  • if you suffer from kidney problems or have a kidney transplant
  • if you suffer from heart problems
  • if you suffer from liver problems
  • if you suffer from diabetes
  • if you develop low blood sugar levels (symptoms may include sweating, weakness, hunger, dizziness, trembling, headache, flushing or paleness, numbness, having a fast, pounding heart beat), particularly if you are being treated for diabetes
  • if you suffer from lupus erythematosus (also known as lupus or SLE)
  • if you suffer from primary aldosteronism (a condition related to high production of the hormone aldosterone, which causes sodium retention and, in turn, an increase in blood pressure).
  • if you are taking any of the following medicines used to treat high blood pressure:
    • an ACE-inhibitor (for example enalapril, lisinopril, ramipril) in particular if you have diabetes-related kidney problems.
    • aliskiren.
  • if you have had skin cancer or if you develop an unexpected skin lesion during the treatment. Treatment with hydrochlorothiazide, particularly long term use with high doses, may increase the risk of some types of skin and lip cancer (non-melanoma skin cancer). Protect your skin from sun exposure and UV rays while taking CoAprovel
  • if you experienced breathing or lung problems (including inflammation or fluid in the lungs) following hydrochlorothiazide intake in the past. If you develop any severe shortness of breath or difficulty breathing after taking CoAprovel, seek medical attention immediately.

 

Your doctor may check your kidney function, blood pressure, and the amount of electrolytes (e.g. potassium) in your blood at regular intervals.

See also information under the heading “Do not take CoAprovel”.

You must tell your doctor if you think you are (or might become) pregnant. CoAprovel is not recommended in early pregnancy, and must not be taken if you are more than 3 months pregnant, as it may cause serious harm to your baby if used at that stage (see pregnancy section).

You should also tell your doctor:

  • if you are on a low-salt diet
  • if you have signs such as abnormal thirst, dry mouth, general weakness, drowsiness, muscle pain or cramps, nausea, vomiting, or an abnormally fast heart beat which may indicate an excessive effect of hydrochlorothiazide (contained in CoAprovel)
  • if you experience an increased sensitivity of the skin to the sun with symptoms of sunburn (such as redness, itching, swelling, blistering) occurring more quickly than normal
  • if you are going to have an operation (surgery) or be given anaesthetics
  • if you have decrease in your vision or pain in one or both of your eyes while taking CoAprovel. These could be symptoms of fluid accumulation in the vascular layer of the eye (choroidal effusion) or an increase of pressure in your eye (glaucoma) and can happen within hours to a week of taking CoAprovel. This can lead to permanent vision loss, if not treated. If you earlier have had a penicillin or sulfonamide allergy, you can be at higher risk of developing this. You should discontinue CoAprovel treatment and seek prompt medical attention.

 

The hydrochlorothiazide contained in this medicine could produce a positive result in an anti-doping test.

Children and adolescents

CoAprovel should not be given to children and adolescents (under 18 years).

Other medicines and CoAprovel

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines.

Diuretic agents such as the hydrochlorothiazide contained in CoAprovel may have an effect on other medicines. Preparations containing lithium should not be taken with CoAprovel without close supervision by your doctor.

Your doctor may need to change your dose and/or to take other precautions:

If you are taking an ACE-inhibitor or aliskiren (see also information under the headings “Do not take CoAprovel” and “Warnings and precautions”).

You may need to have blood checks if you take:

  • potassium supplements
  • salt substitutes containing potassium
  • potassium sparing medicines or other diuretics (water tablets)
  • some laxatives
  • medicines for the treatment of gout
  • therapeutic vitamin D supplements
  • medicines to control heart rhythm
  • medicines for diabetes (oral agents as repaglinide or insulins)
  • carbamazepine (a medicine for the treatment of epilepsy).

 

It is also important to tell your doctor if you are taking other medicines to reduce your blood pressure, steroids, medicines to treat cancer, pain killers, arthritis medicines, or colestyramine and colestipol resins for lowering blood cholesterol.

CoAprovel with food and drink

CoAprovel can be taken with or without food.

Due to the hydrochlorothiazide contained in CoAprovel, if you drink alcohol while on treatment with this medicine, you may have an increased feeling of dizziness on standing up, specially when getting up from a sitting position.

Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility

Pregnancy

You must tell your doctor if you think you are (or might become) pregnant. Your doctor will normally advise you to stop taking CoAprovel before you become pregnant or as soon as you know you are pregnant and will advise you to take another medicine instead of CoAprovel. CoAprovel is not recommended in early pregnancy, and must not be taken when more than 3 months pregnant, as it may cause serious harm to your baby if used after the third month of pregnancy.

Breast-feeding

Tell your doctor if you are breast-feeding or about to start breast-feeding. CoAprovel is not recommended for mothers who are breast-feeding, and your doctor may choose another treatment for you if you wish to breast-feed, especially if your baby is newborn, or was born prematurely.

Driving and using machines

CoAprovel is unlikely to affect your ability to drive or use machines. However, occasionally dizziness or weariness may occur during treatment of high blood pressure. If you experience these, talk to your doctor before attempting to drive or use machines.

CoAprovel contains lactose. If you have been told by your doctor that you have an intolerance to some sugars (e.g. lactose), contact your doctor before taking this medicinal product.
