As additional substances in the composition of the drug Noliprel there is magnesium stearate, lactose monohydrate, colloidal hydrophobic silicon dioxide, microcrystalline cellulose.

pharmachologic effect

Noliprel is a combination drug that contains perindopril (an angiotensin-converting factor inhibitor) and indapamide (a diuretic that is part of the sulfonamide group).

The pharmacological effect of a drug is determined by a combination of some of the effects of these components. In this combination, both components mutually increase the effect. Noliprel is an antihypertensive drug that effectively lowers both diastolic and systolic blood pressure. The severity of the effect depends on the dose. After taking the drug, there is no rapid heartbeat. The clinical effect is observed 1 month after treatment was started. The antihypertensive effect lasts for one day. After therapy is suspended, the patient does not experience withdrawal symptoms. During treatment, the severity of left ventricular hypertrophy decreases, and the degree of total precardiac and postcardiac load decreases. Large vessels become more elastic, the walls of small vessels are restored. The medicine has no effect on the metabolic processes that occur in the body.

Perindopril reduces the level of aldosterone secretion, resulting in increased renin activity in the blood. Blood pressure decreases in people with different levels of renin . Under the influence of this component, blood vessels dilate.

When taking the drug, the likelihood of hypokalemia . The mechanism of action of indapamide is similar to thiazide diuretics: urination and excretion of sodium and chloride ions in the urine will increase.

Vascular hyperreactivity decreases under the influence of adrenaline. The amount of lipids in the blood does not change.

Common to perindopril and indapamide The use of the drug Noliprel® A forte is not accompanied by a significant reduction in the frequency of side effects, with the exception of hypokalemia, compared to taking individual components of the drug in the lowest doses approved for use (see section “Side Effects”). When initiating therapy with two antihypertensive drugs that the patient has not previously received, an increased risk of idiosyncrasy cannot be excluded. Careful monitoring of the patient can minimize this risk. Impaired renal function Therapy is contraindicated in patients with severe renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min). In some patients with arterial hypertension without previous obvious renal impairment, laboratory signs of functional renal failure may appear during therapy. In this case, treatment should be stopped. In the future, you can resume combination therapy using low doses of drugs, or use only one of the drugs.

Such patients require regular monitoring of potassium levels and creatinine concentrations in the blood serum - 2 weeks after the start of therapy and every 2 months thereafter. Renal failure occurs more often in patients with severe chronic heart failure or underlying renal impairment, including renal artery stenosis. The drug Noliprel A forte is not recommended in cases of bilateral renal artery stenosis or stenosis of the artery of a single functioning kidney.

Arterial hypotension and water-electrolyte imbalance In the case of initial hyponatremia, there is a risk of sudden development of arterial hypotension, especially in patients with renal artery stenosis. Therefore, during dynamic monitoring of patients, attention should be paid to possible symptoms of dehydration and decreased electrolyte levels in the blood plasma, for example, after diarrhea or vomiting. Such patients require regular monitoring of blood plasma electrolyte levels.

In case of severe arterial hypotension, intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution may be required.

Transient arterial hypotension is not a contraindication for continued therapy. After restoration of circulating blood volume and blood pressure, therapy can be resumed using low doses of drugs, or only one of the drugs can be used.

Potassium content The combined use of perindopril and indapamide does not prevent the development of hypokalemia, especially in patients with diabetes mellitus or renal failure. As with the combination of any antihypertensive drug and a diuretic, regular monitoring of plasma potassium levels is necessary.

Excipients It should be taken into account that the excipients of the drug include lactose monohydrate. Noliprel® A forte should not be prescribed to patients with hereditary galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency and glucose-galactose malabsorption.

Lithium preparations The simultaneous use of a combination of perindopril and indapamide with lithium preparations is not recommended (see section “Interaction with other drugs”).

Children's age The drug should not be prescribed to children and adolescents under the age of 18 years due to the lack of data on the effectiveness and safety of the use of perindopril and indapamide, both separately and together, in patients of this age group.

Perindopril Dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) Dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) There is evidence of an increased risk of arterial hypotension, hyperkalemia and renal dysfunction (including acute renal failure) with simultaneous use of ACE inhibitors with ARBs or aliskiren. Therefore, double blockade of the RAAS by combining an ACE inhibitor with ARAII or aliskiren is not recommended (see sections “Interaction with other drugs” and “Pharmacodynamics”). If a double blockade is absolutely necessary, then this should be performed under the strict supervision of a specialist with regular monitoring of renal function, plasma electrolytes and blood pressure. The use of ACE inhibitors in combination with angiotensin II receptor antagonists is contraindicated in patients with diabetic nephropathy and is not recommended in other patients (see section "Contraindications").

Potassium-sparing diuretics, potassium preparations, potassium-containing table salt substitutes and food additives The simultaneous administration of perindopril and potassium-sparing diuretics, as well as potassium preparations, potassium-containing table salt substitutes and food additives is not recommended (see section “Interaction with other drugs”).

Neutropenia/agranulocytosis/thrombocytopenia There have been reports of the development of neutropenia/agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia and anemia while taking ACE inhibitors. In patients with normal renal function and without concomitant risk factors, neutropenia rarely occurs. Perindopril should be used with extreme caution against the background of systemic connective tissue diseases (including systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma), as well as while taking immunosuppressants, allopurinol or procainamide, or a combination of these factors, especially in patients with initially impaired renal function .

Some of these patients developed severe infections, in some cases resistant to intensive antibiotic therapy. When prescribing perindopril to such patients, it is recommended to periodically monitor the number of leukocytes in the blood.

Patients should tell their doctor about any signs of infectious diseases (for example, sore throat, fever) (see sections "Interaction with other drugs" and "Side effects").

Anemia Anemia can develop in patients following a kidney transplant or in those on hemodialysis. In this case, the decrease in hemoglobin is greater, the higher its initial value. This effect does not appear to be dose-dependent, but may be related to the mechanism of action of ACE inhibitors.

A slight decrease in hemoglobin occurs during the first 6 months, then it remains stable and is completely restored after discontinuation of the drug. In such patients, treatment can be continued, but hematological tests should be carried out regularly.

Hypersensitivity / angioedema When taking ACE inhibitors, including perindopril, in rare cases, the development of angioedema of the face, extremities, lips, tongue, vocal folds and/or larynx may occur (see section “Side effects”). This can happen at any time during therapy. If symptoms appear, the drug should be stopped immediately and the patient should be observed until signs of edema completely disappear. If the swelling affects only the face and lips, it usually goes away on its own, although antihistamines can be used as symptomatic therapy.

Angioedema, accompanied by swelling of the larynx, can be fatal. Swelling of the tongue, vocal folds, or larynx can lead to airway obstruction. If such symptoms appear, you should immediately begin appropriate therapy, for example, subcutaneously administer epinephrine (adrenaline) at a dilution of 1:1000 (0.3 - 0.5 ml) and/or ensure airway patency.

A higher risk of developing angioedema has been reported in black patients.

Patients with a history of angioedema not associated with taking ACE inhibitors may have an increased risk of developing it when taking drugs of this group (see section “Contraindications”).

In rare cases, angioedema of the intestine develops during therapy with ACE inhibitors.

In this case, patients experienced abdominal pain as an isolated symptom or in combination with nausea and vomiting, in some cases without previous angioedema of the face and with normal levels of C1-esterase. Diagnosis was made using abdominal computed tomography, ultrasound, or at the time of surgery.

Symptoms resolved after discontinuation of ACE inhibitors. Therefore, in patients with abdominal pain receiving ACE inhibitors, when carrying out differential diagnosis, it is necessary to take into account the possibility of developing angioedema of the intestine.

mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) inhibitors (eg, sirolimus, everolimus, temsirolimus) Patients receiving concomitant therapy with mTOR inhibitors may have an increased risk of developing angioedema (including swelling of the airway or tongue with or without respiratory impairment) (see section 4.4). Section “Interaction with other drugs”) Anaphylactoid reactions during desensitization There are isolated reports of the development of long-term, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during desensitizing therapy with the venom of hymenoptera insects (bees, wasps).

ACE inhibitors should be used with caution in patients prone to allergic reactions undergoing desensitization procedures.

Prescription of an ACE inhibitor should be avoided in patients receiving immunotherapy with hymenoptera venom. However, an anaphylactoid reaction can be avoided by temporarily discontinuing the ACE inhibitor at least 24 hours before the procedure.

Anaphylactoid reactions during LDL apheresis In rare cases, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions have developed in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during LDL apheresis using dextran sulfate. To prevent an anaphylactoid reaction, ACE inhibitor therapy should be temporarily discontinued before each apheresis procedure.

Hemodialysis Anaphylactoid reactions have been reported in patients receiving ACE inhibitors when undergoing hemodialysis using high-flux membranes (eg, AN69®). Therefore, it is advisable to use a different type of membrane or use an antihypertensive agent of a different pharmacotherapeutic group.

Cough During therapy with an ACE inhibitor, a dry persistent cough may occur, which disappears after discontinuation of the drug. If a patient develops a dry cough, one should be aware of the possible iatrogenic nature of this symptom. If the attending physician believes that ACE inhibitor therapy is necessary for the patient, it is possible to continue taking the drug.

Risk of arterial hypotension and/or renal failure (in patients with heart failure, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, etc.) In some pathological conditions, significant activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system may be observed, especially with severe hypovolemia and decreased blood levels. electrolytes in the blood plasma (against the background of a salt-free diet or long-term use of diuretics), in patients with initially low blood pressure, renal artery stenosis, chronic heart failure or cirrhosis of the liver with edema and ascites.

The use of an ACE inhibitor causes a blockade of this system and therefore may be accompanied by a sharp decrease in blood pressure and/or an increase in the concentration of creatinine in the blood plasma, indicating the development of functional renal failure. These phenomena are more often observed when taking the first dose of the drug or during the first two weeks of therapy. In rare cases, these conditions develop acutely and during other periods of therapy. In such cases, when resuming therapy, it is recommended to use the drug at a lower dose and then gradually increase the dose.

Elderly Before starting perindopril, it is necessary to assess the functional activity of the kidneys and the potassium content in the blood plasma. At the beginning of therapy, the dose of the drug is selected taking into account the degree of reduction in blood pressure, especially in the case of dehydration and loss of electrolytes. Such measures help to avoid a sharp decrease in blood pressure.

Atherosclerosis The risk of arterial hypotension exists in all patients, however, special care should be taken when using the drug in patients with coronary heart disease and cerebrovascular insufficiency. In such patients, treatment should begin with low doses of the drug.

Renovascular hypertension The treatment for renovascular hypertension is revascularization. However, the use of ACE inhibitors may have a positive effect in this category of patients, both awaiting surgery and in cases where surgery is not possible.

Treatment with Noliprel® A forte is not indicated in patients with diagnosed or suspected renal artery stenosis, since therapy should be started in a hospital setting with lower doses of the combination of perindopril and indapamide.

Heart failure/severe heart failure In patients with severe heart failure (NYHA functional class IV), treatment should begin with a low dose of the drug and under close medical supervision.

Hypertensive patients with coronary artery disease should not stop taking beta-blockers: ACE inhibitors should be used together with beta-blockers.

Diabetes mellitus In patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (risk of spontaneous increase in potassium levels), treatment should begin with a low dose of the drug and under close medical supervision.

During the first month of therapy with ACE inhibitors, plasma glucose concentrations should be carefully monitored in patients with diabetes mellitus receiving oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin (See section "Interaction with other drugs").

Ethnic differences Perindopril, like other ACE inhibitors, has a clearly less pronounced antihypertensive effect in patients of the Black race compared to representatives of other races. This difference may be due to the fact that black patients with arterial hypertension are more likely to have low renin activity.

Surgery/General anesthesia Carrying out general anesthesia against the background of ACE inhibitors can lead to a significant decrease in blood pressure, especially when using general anesthesia agents that have an antihypertensive effect.

It is recommended, if possible, to stop taking long-acting ACE inhibitors, including perindopril, the day before surgery.

It is necessary to warn the anesthesiologist that the patient is taking ACE inhibitors.

Aortic or mitral stenosis / Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy ACE inhibitors should be prescribed with caution to patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Liver failure In rare cases, cholestatic jaundice occurs while taking ACE inhibitors. As this syndrome progresses, fulmitant liver necrosis may develop, sometimes with death. The mechanism of development of this syndrome is unclear. If jaundice appears or if there is a significant increase in the activity of liver enzymes while taking ACE inhibitors, the patient should stop taking the ACE inhibitor and consult a doctor (see section “Side Effects”).

Hyperkalemia Hyperkalemia may develop during treatment with ACE inhibitors, including perindopril. Risk factors for hyperkalemia are renal failure, impaired renal function, age over 70 years, diabetes mellitus, some concomitant conditions (dehydration, acute cardiac decompensation, metabolic acidosis), concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics (such as spironolactone and its derivative eplerenone, triamterene, amiloride ), as well as potassium preparations or potassium-containing substitutes for table salt, as well as the use of other drugs that help increase the content of potassium in the blood plasma (for example, heparins, ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor antagonists, acetylsalicylic acid at a dose of 3 g/day or more, inhibitors cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and non-selective NSAIDs, immunosuppressants such as cyclosporine or tacrolimus), trimethoprim.

The use of potassium supplements, potassium-sparing diuretics, and potassium-containing table salt substitutes can lead to a significant increase in potassium levels in the blood, especially in patients with reduced renal function. Hyperkalemia can cause serious, sometimes fatal, abnormal heart rhythms. If simultaneous use of the above drugs is necessary, treatment should be carried out with caution against the background of regular monitoring of potassium levels in the blood serum (see section “Interaction with other drugs”).

Indapamide Hepatic encephalopathy In the presence of liver dysfunction, taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics can lead to the development of hepatic encephalopathy. In such a situation, you should immediately stop taking the diuretic.

Water-electrolyte balance The content of sodium ions in the blood plasma The content of sodium ions in the blood plasma must be determined before the start of treatment, and then regularly monitored while taking the drug. Hyponatremia at the initial stage may not be accompanied by clinical symptoms, so regular laboratory monitoring is necessary. More frequent monitoring of sodium ion levels is indicated for patients with liver cirrhosis and elderly patients (see sections “Side effects” and “Overdose”). Treatment with any diuretics can cause hyponatremia, sometimes with very serious consequences. Hyponatremia accompanied by hypovolemia can lead to dehydration and orthostatic hypotension. A simultaneous decrease in the content of chlorine ions can lead to the development of secondary compensatory metabolic alkalosis: the frequency of its occurrence and the severity of its manifestations are insignificant.

Content of potassium ions in blood plasma Therapy with thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics is associated with the risk of developing hypokalemia. Hypokalemia (less than 3.4 mmol/L) should be avoided in the following high-risk patients: elderly patients, malnourished patients (both those receiving and not receiving concomitant drug therapy), patients with cirrhosis (with edema and ascites) , coronary heart disease, heart failure. Hypokalemia in these patients increases the toxic effect of cardiac glycosides and increases the risk of developing arrhythmias.

Patients with a prolonged QT interval, either congenital or drug-induced, are also at increased risk.

Hypokalemia, like bradycardia, contributes to the development of severe heart rhythm disturbances, especially arrhythmias, which can be fatal.

In all the cases described above, more frequent monitoring of the content of potassium ions in the blood plasma is necessary. The first measurement of potassium ion content should be carried out within the first week from the start of therapy.

If hypokalemia is detected, appropriate correction should be made.

Content of calcium ions in blood plasma Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics can reduce the excretion of calcium ions by the kidneys, leading to a slight and temporary increase in calcium levels in blood plasma. Severe hypercalcemia may be a consequence of previously undiagnosed hyperparathyroidism. Before studying the function of the parathyroid glands, you should stop taking diuretics.

Plasma glucose concentrations It is necessary to monitor blood glucose concentrations in patients with diabetes mellitus, especially in the presence of hypokalemia.

Uric acid When the concentration of uric acid in the blood plasma increases during therapy, the frequency of gout attacks may increase.

Diuretics and renal function Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are only fully effective in patients with normal or slightly impaired renal function (plasma creatinine concentration in adults below 25 mg/l or 220 µmol/l).

In elderly patients, plasma creatinine levels should be assessed taking into account age, weight and sex, according to the Cockcroft formula: Creatinine clearance (CC) = (140 - age) x weight / 0.814 x plasma creatinine concentration where: age in years, weight in kg, plasma creatinine concentration in µmol/l The formula is suitable for elderly men; for older women, the result should be multiplied by a factor of 0.85.

At the beginning of diuretic treatment in patients, due to hypovolemia (due to the excretion of water and sodium ions), a temporary decrease in glomerular filtration rate and an increase in the concentration of urea and creatinine in the blood plasma may be observed. This transient functional renal failure is not dangerous for patients with initially normal renal function, but its severity may increase in patients with renal failure.

Photosensitivity While taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics, cases of photosensitivity reactions have been reported (see section “Side effects”). If photosensitivity reactions develop while taking the drug, treatment should be discontinued. If it is necessary to continue diuretic therapy, it is recommended to protect the skin from exposure to sunlight or artificial ultraviolet rays.

Athletes Indapamide may give a positive reaction during doping control.

Acute myopia and secondary angle-closure glaucoma Sulfonamides and their derivatives can cause the development of idiosyncratic reactions leading to temporary (transient) myopia and acute angle-closure glaucoma. Without proper treatment, acute angle-closure glaucoma can lead to vision loss. First of all, you need to stop taking the drug as soon as possible. If intraocular pressure continues to be high, immediate medical or surgical treatment may be required. Risk factors that can lead to the development of acute angle-closure glaucoma include an allergy to sulfonamide or penicillin.

Effect on the ability to drive a car or drive mechanical devices The action of the substances included in the drug Noliprel® A forte does not lead to impairment of psychomotor reactions. However, some people may develop different individual reactions in response to lowering blood pressure, especially at the beginning of therapy or when other antihypertensive drugs are added to therapy. In this case, the ability to drive a car or operate other machinery may be reduced.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics

The pharmacokinetics of perindopril and indapamide when used in combination is the same as when used separately. After oral administration, perindopril is rapidly absorbed. Bioavailability level - 65-70%. About 20% of total absorbed perindopril is later converted to perindoprilat (the active metabolite). The maximum concentration of perindoprilate in plasma is observed after 3-4 hours. Less than 30% binds to blood proteins, depending on the concentration in the blood plasma. The half-life is 25 hours. The substance penetrates the placental barrier. Perindoprilat is excreted from the body through the kidneys. Its half-life is 3-5 hours. There is a slower administration of perindoprilate in older people, as well as in patients with heart failure and renal failure.

Indapamide is completely and relatively quickly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum concentration of the substance in plasma is observed one hour after oral administration.

The substance binds to plasma proteins by 79%. Half-life is 19 hours. The substance is excreted in the form of inactive metabolites by the kidneys (approximately 70%) and intestines (approximately 22%). In people with renal failure, no changes in the pharmacokinetics of the substance are observed.

NOLIPREL A

special instructions

Noliprel® A
The use of Noliprel® A 2.5 mg + 0.625 mg, containing a low dose of indapamide and perindopril arginine, is not accompanied by a significant reduction in the incidence of side effects, with the exception of hypokalemia, compared with perindopril and indapamide at the lowest approved doses (see section "Side effects"). When initiating therapy with two antihypertensive drugs that the patient has not previously received, an increased risk of idiosyncrasy cannot be excluded. Careful monitoring of the patient can minimize this risk.

Renal dysfunction

Therapy is contraindicated in patients with severe renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min). In some patients with arterial hypertension without previous obvious renal impairment, laboratory signs of functional renal failure may appear during therapy. In this case, treatment should be stopped. In the future, you can resume combination therapy using low doses of drugs, or use drugs in monotherapy.

Such patients require regular monitoring of potassium and creatinine levels in the blood serum - 2 weeks after the start of therapy and every 2 months thereafter. Renal failure occurs more often in patients with severe chronic heart failure or underlying renal impairment, including renal artery stenosis.

Arterial hypotension and water-electrolyte imbalance

Hyponatremia is associated with a risk of sudden development of arterial hypotension (especially in patients with arterial stenosis of a solitary kidney and bilateral renal artery stenosis). Therefore, during dynamic monitoring of patients, attention should be paid to possible symptoms of dehydration and decreased levels of electrolytes in the blood plasma, for example, after diarrhea or vomiting. Such patients require regular monitoring of plasma electrolyte levels.

In case of severe arterial hypotension, intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution may be required.

Potassium level

The combined use of perindopril and indapamide does not prevent the development of hypokalemia, especially in patients with diabetes mellitus or renal failure. As in the case of the combined use of antihypertensive drugs and a diuretic, regular monitoring of the level of potassium in the blood plasma is necessary.

Excipients

It should be taken into account that the excipients of the drug include lactose monohydrate. Noliprel® A should not be prescribed to patients with hereditary galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency and glucose-galactose malabsorption.

Lithium preparations

The simultaneous use of a combination of perindopril and indapamide with lithium preparations is not recommended (see section “Contraindications”, “Interaction with other drugs”).

Perindopril

Neutropenia/agranulocytosis

The risk of developing neutropenia while taking ACE inhibitors is dose-dependent and depends on the drug taken and the presence of concomitant diseases. Neutropenia rarely occurs in patients without concomitant diseases, but the risk increases in patients with impaired renal function, especially against the background of systemic connective tissue diseases (including systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma). After discontinuation of ACE inhibitors, signs of neutropenia disappear on their own.

To avoid the development of such reactions, it is recommended to strictly follow the recommended dose. When prescribing ACE inhibitors to this group of patients, the benefit/risk factor should be carefully weighed.

Angioedema (Quincke's edema)

When taking ACE inhibitors, including perindopril, in rare cases, the development of angioedema of the face, extremities, lips, tongue, glottis and/or larynx may occur. If symptoms appear, perindopril should be discontinued immediately and the patient should be observed until signs of edema completely disappear. If the swelling affects only the face and lips, it usually resolves on its own, although antihistamines may be used to treat symptoms.

Angioedema, accompanied by swelling of the larynx, can be fatal. Swelling of the tongue, glottis, or larynx can lead to airway obstruction. If such symptoms appear, you should immediately administer epinephrine (adrenaline) subcutaneously at a dilution of 1:1000 (0.3 or 0.5 ml) and/or ensure airway patency.

Patients with a history of angioedema not associated with taking ACE inhibitors may have an increased risk of developing it when taking drugs of this group (see section “Contraindications”).

In rare cases, angioedema of the intestine develops during therapy with ACE inhibitors.

Anaphylactoid reactions during desensitization

There are isolated reports of the development of long-term, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during desensitizing therapy with the venom of hymenoptera insects (bees, wasps). ACE inhibitors should be used with caution in patients prone to allergic reactions undergoing desensitization procedures. Prescription of an ACE inhibitor should be avoided in patients receiving immunotherapy with hymenoptera venom. However, an anaphylactoid reaction can be avoided by temporarily discontinuing the ACE inhibitor at least 24 hours before the procedure.

Anaphylactoid reactions during LDL apheresis

In rare cases, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions may occur in patients receiving ACE inhibitors, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apheresis using dextran sulfate, or hemodialysis using high-flux membranes. To prevent an anaphylactoid reaction, ACE inhibitor therapy should be temporarily discontinued at least 24 hours before the apheresis procedure.

Cough

During therapy with an ACE inhibitor, a dry cough may occur. The cough persists for a long time while taking drugs of this group and disappears after their discontinuation. If a patient develops a dry cough, one should be aware of the possible iatrogenic nature of this symptom. If the attending physician believes that ACE inhibitor therapy is necessary for the patient, the drug may be continued.

Children and teenagers

The drug should not be prescribed to children and adolescents under the age of 18 years due to the lack of data on the effectiveness and safety of the use of perindopril as monotherapy or as part of combination therapy in patients in this age group.

Risk of arterial hypotension and/or renal failure (in patients with heart failure, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, etc.

)

In some pathological conditions, significant activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system may be observed, especially with severe hypovolemia and a decrease in the level of plasma electrolytes (due to a salt-free diet or long-term use of diuretics), in patients with initially low blood pressure, with bilateral renal artery stenosis or with stenosis of the artery of a single kidney, chronic heart failure or cirrhosis of the liver with edema and ascites. The use of an ACE inhibitor causes a blockade of this system and therefore may be accompanied by a sharp decrease in blood pressure and/or an increase in plasma creatinine levels, indicating the development of functional renal failure. These phenomena are more often observed when taking the first dose of the drug or during the first two weeks of therapy. Sometimes these conditions develop acutely and during other periods of therapy. In such cases, when resuming therapy, it is recommended to use the drug at a lower dose and then gradually increase the dose.

Elderly patients

Before starting to take the drug, it is necessary to assess the functional activity of the kidneys and the concentration of potassium in the blood plasma. At the beginning of therapy, the dose of the drug is selected taking into account the degree of reduction in blood pressure, especially in the case of dehydration and loss of electrolytes. Such measures help to avoid a sharp decrease in blood pressure.

Atherosclerosis

The risk of arterial hypotension exists in all patients, however, special care should be taken when using the drug in patients with coronary heart disease and cerebrovascular insufficiency. In such patients, treatment should be started with low doses.

Patients with renovascular hypertension

The treatment method for renovascular hypertension is revascularization. However, the use of ACE inhibitors has a beneficial effect in this category of patients, both awaiting surgery and in cases where surgery is not possible.

Treatment with Noliprel® A in patients with diagnosed or suspected bilateral renal artery stenosis or stenosis of the artery of a single kidney should begin with a low dose of the drug in a hospital setting, monitoring renal function and potassium concentration in the blood plasma. Some patients may develop functional renal failure, which disappears when the drug is discontinued.

Other risk groups

In persons with severe heart failure (stage IV) and patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (risk of spontaneous increase in potassium concentration), treatment should begin with a low dose of the drug and under constant medical supervision.

Hypertensive patients with coronary artery disease should not stop taking beta-blockers: ACE inhibitors should be used together with beta-blockers.

Anemia

Anemia can develop in patients after kidney transplantation or in people on hemodialysis. In this case, the decrease in hemoglobin concentration is greater, the higher its initial value. This effect does not appear to be dose-dependent, but may be related to the mechanism of action of ACE inhibitors.

A slight decrease in hemoglobin concentration occurs during the first 6 months, then it remains stable and is completely restored after discontinuation of the drug. In such patients, treatment can be continued, but hematological tests should be performed regularly.

Surgery / General anesthesia

The use of ACE inhibitors in patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia can lead to a significant decrease in blood pressure, especially when using general anesthesia agents that have a hypotensive effect.

It is recommended to stop taking long-acting ACE inhibitors, including perindopril, the day before surgery. It is necessary to warn the anesthesiologist that the patient is taking ACE inhibitors.

Aortic stenosis / Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ACE inhibitors should be prescribed with caution to patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Liver failure

In rare cases, cholestatic jaundice occurs while taking ACE inhibitors. As this syndrome progresses, liver necrosis may rapidly develop, sometimes with death. The mechanism of development of this syndrome is unclear. If jaundice appears or a significant increase in the activity of liver enzymes while taking ACE inhibitors, you should stop taking the drug and consult a doctor (see section “Side Effects”).

Indapamide

In the presence of liver dysfunction, taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics can lead to the development of hepatic encephalopathy. In this case, you should immediately stop taking the drug.

Water and electrolyte balance

Sodium content in blood plasma

Before starting treatment, it is necessary to determine the content of sodium ions in the blood plasma. While taking the drug, this indicator should be regularly monitored. All diuretics can cause hyponatremia, which sometimes leads to serious complications. Hyponatremia at the initial stage may not be accompanied by clinical symptoms, so regular laboratory monitoring is necessary. More frequent monitoring of sodium ion levels is indicated for patients with liver cirrhosis and the elderly (see section “Side effects” and “Overdose”).

Content of potassium ions in blood plasma

Therapy with thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics is associated with a risk of hypokalemia. Hypokalemia (less than 3.4 mmol/l) should be avoided in the following categories of high-risk patients: elderly patients, debilitated patients or those receiving concomitant drug therapy, patients with liver cirrhosis, peripheral edema or ascites, coronary artery disease, heart failure. Hypokalemia in these patients enhances the toxic effect of cardiac glycosides and increases the risk of developing arrhythmias.

The high-risk group also includes patients with an increased QT interval, and it does not matter whether this increase is caused by congenital causes or the effect of drugs.

Hypokalemia, like bradycardia, contributes to the development of severe heart rhythm disturbances, especially arrhythmias, which can be fatal. In all the cases described above, more regular monitoring of the content of potassium ions in the blood plasma is necessary. The first measurement of potassium ion concentration should be carried out within the first week from the start of therapy.

If hypokalemia is detected, appropriate treatment should be prescribed.

Content of calcium ions in blood plasma

Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics reduce the excretion of calcium ions by the kidneys, leading to a slight and temporary increase in the concentration of calcium in the blood plasma. Severe hypercalcemia may be a consequence of previously undiagnosed hyperparathyroidism. Before studying the function of the parathyroid gland, you should stop taking diuretics.

Plasma glucose levels

It is necessary to monitor blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus, especially in the presence of hypokalemia.

Uric acid

In patients with elevated levels of uric acid in the blood plasma during therapy, the frequency of gout attacks may increase.

Diuretics and kidney function

Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are fully effective only in patients with normal or slightly impaired renal function (plasma creatinine in adults below 25 mg/l or 220 µmol/l).

At the beginning of diuretic treatment in patients, due to hypovolemia and hyponatremia, a temporary decrease in glomerular filtration rate and an increase in the concentration of urea and creatinine in the blood plasma may be observed. This transient functional renal failure is not dangerous for patients with unchanged renal function, but its severity may increase in patients with renal failure.

Photosensitivity

Cases of photosensitivity reactions have been reported while taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics. If photosensitivity reactions develop while taking the drug, treatment should be discontinued. If it is necessary to continue diuretic therapy, it is recommended to protect the skin from exposure to sunlight or artificial ultraviolet rays.

Athletes

Indapamide may give a positive reaction during doping control.

Instructions for use

Noliprel A tab p.o 2.5 mg + 0.625 mg No. 30

Dosage forms tablets 2.5 mg + 0.625 mg Synonyms Co-Perineva Noliprel Noliprel A Noliprel A forte Noliprel forte Perindid Perindopril Plus Indapamide Group Combination of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and diuretics International nonproprietary name Indapamide + Perindopril Composition Active substances: perindopril and indapamide. Manufacturers Laboratories Servier Industry (France), Serdix (Russia) Pharmacological action A combined drug containing perindopril (ACE inhibitor) and indapamide (a diuretic from the group of sulfonamide derivatives). The pharmacological action of Noliprel is due to the combination of the individual properties of each component. The combination of perindopril and indapamide enhances the effect of each of them. Noliprel has a pronounced dose-dependent hypotensive effect on both systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the supine and standing position. The effect of the drug lasts 24 hours. A persistent clinical effect occurs in less than 1 month from the start of therapy and is not accompanied by tachycardia. Discontinuation of treatment is not accompanied by the development of withdrawal syndrome. Noliprel reduces the degree of left ventricular hypertrophy, improves arterial elasticity, reduces peripheral vascular resistance, does not affect the metabolism of lipids (total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides) and does not affect the metabolism of carbohydrates (including in patients with diabetes). Side effects From the water-electrolyte balance: possible hypokalemia, decreased sodium levels, accompanied by hypovolemia, dehydration and orthostatic arterial hypotension. The simultaneous loss of chlorine ions can lead to compensatory metabolic alkalosis (the incidence of alkalosis and its severity is low). In some cases, an increase in calcium levels. From the cardiovascular system: excessive decrease in blood pressure, orthostatic hypotension; in some cases - myocardial infarction, angina, stroke, arrhythmia. From the urinary system: rarely - decreased renal function, proteinuria (in patients with glomerular nephropathy); in some cases - acute renal failure. A slight increase in the concentration of creatinine in urine and blood plasma (reversible after discontinuation of the drug) is most likely in case of renal artery stenosis, treatment of arterial hypertension with diuretics, or the presence of renal failure. From the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system: headache, increased fatigue, asthenia, dizziness, mood lability, visual disturbances, tinnitus, sleep disturbance, convulsions, paresthesia, anorexia, impaired taste perception; in some cases - confusion. From the respiratory system: dry cough; rarely - difficulty breathing, bronchospasm; in some cases - rhinorrhea. From the digestive system: abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, constipation, diarrhea; rarely - dry mouth; in some cases - cholestatic jaundice, pancreatitis, increased activity of liver transaminases, hyperbilirubinemia; with liver failure, the development of hepatic encephalopathy is possible. From the hematopoietic system: anemia (in patients after kidney transplantation, hemodialysis); rarely - hypohemoglobinemia, thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, decreased hematocrit; in some cases - agranulocytosis, pancytopenia, aplastic anemia, hemolytic anemia. From the metabolic side: an increase in the content of urea and glucose in the blood plasma is possible. Allergic reactions: skin rashes, itching; rarely - urticaria, angioedema; in some cases - erythema multiforme, hemorrhagic vasculitis, exacerbation of SLE. Other: temporary hyperkalemia; rarely - increased sweating, decreased potency. Indications for use: Essential arterial hypertension. Contraindications: history of angioedema (including while taking ACE inhibitors); - hypokalemia; — severe renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min); - severe liver failure (including with encephalopathy); - simultaneous use of drugs that prolong the QT interval; - pregnancy; - lactation (breastfeeding); - hypersensitivity to perindopril and other ACE inhibitors; - hypersensitivity to indapamide and sulfonamides. Method of administration and dosage The drug is prescribed orally, 1 tablet 1 time per day, preferably in the morning, before meals. Overdose Symptoms: marked decrease in blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, convulsions, dizziness, insomnia, decreased mood, polyuria or oliguria, which can turn into anuria (as a result of hypovolemia), bradycardia, electrolyte disturbances. Treatment: gastric lavage, administration of adsorbents, correction of water and electrolyte balance. If there is a significant decrease in blood pressure, the patient should be transferred to a horizontal position with legs elevated. Perindoprilat can be removed from the body using dialysis. Interaction The simultaneous use of Noliprel and lithium preparations is not recommended. Increasing lithium concentrations may result in symptoms and signs of lithium overdose. (due to decreased excretion of lithium by the kidneys). The combination of perindopril with potassium-sparing diuretics and potassium supplements can lead to a significant increase in the concentration of potassium in the blood serum (especially against the background of renal failure) and even death. It should be taken into account that indapamide in combination with potassium-sparing diuretics or potassium supplements does not exclude the development of hypokalemia or hyperkalemia (especially in patients with diabetes mellitus and renal failure). With the simultaneous use of erythromycin (for intravenous administration), pentamidine, sultopride, vincamine, halofantrine, bepridil and indapamide, the development of arrhythmias is possible (provoking factors include hypokalemia, bradycardia or a prolonged QT interval). When using ACE inhibitors, the hypoglycemic effect of insulin and sulfonylurea derivatives may be enhanced. The development of hypoglycemia is extremely rare. With the simultaneous use of Noliprel and baclofen, the hypotensive effect is enhanced. With the simultaneous use of indapamide and NSAIDs in case of dehydration, acute renal failure may develop. It should also be taken into account that NSAIDs weaken the hypotensive effect of ACE inhibitors. NSAIDs and ACE inhibitors have been found to have an additive effect on hyperkalemia, and a decrease in renal function is also possible. With the simultaneous use of Noliprel and tricyclic antidepressants, antipsychotics, it is possible to enhance the hypotensive effect and increase the risk of developing orthostatic hypotension (additive effect). GCS, tetracosactide reduce the hypotensive effect of Noliprel. With simultaneous use of indapamide with antiarrhythmic drugs IA (quinidine, hydroquinidine, disopyramide) and class III (amiodarone, bretylium, sotalol), the development of arrhythmias is possible (provoking factors include hypokalemia, bradycardia or a prolonged QT interval). If arrhythmia develops, antiarrhythmic drugs should not be used (an artificial pacemaker must be used). With the simultaneous use of indapamide and drugs that reduce potassium levels (including intravenous amphotericin B, gluco- and mineralocorticoids for systemic use, tetracosactide, stimulant laxatives), the risk of developing hypokalemia increases. Potassium concentration should be monitored and adjusted if necessary. If it is necessary to prescribe laxatives, drugs without a stimulating effect on intestinal motility should be used. When using Noliprel simultaneously with cardiac glycosides, it should be taken into account that low potassium levels may enhance the toxic effect of cardiac glycosides. Potassium levels and ECG should be monitored and therapy adjusted if necessary. Lactic acidosis while taking metformin is apparently associated with functional renal failure, which is caused by the action of indapamide. Metformin should not be used if creatinine levels exceed 15 mg/L (135 µmol/L) in men and 12 mg/L (110 µmol/L) in women. With significant dehydration of the body, which is caused by taking diuretic drugs, the risk of developing renal failure increases due to the use of iodine-containing contrast agents in high doses. Rehydration is necessary before using iodinated contrast agents. When used simultaneously with calcium salts, it is possible to increase the calcium content in the blood plasma as a result of a decrease in its excretion in the urine. When Noliprel is used against the background of constant use of cyclosporine, the level of creatinine in plasma increases even with a normal state of water-electrolyte balance. Special instructions The use of the drug Noliprel can cause a sharp decrease in blood pressure, especially when first taking the drug and during the first 2 weeks of therapy. The risk of developing an excessive decrease in blood pressure is increased in patients with reduced blood volume (as a result of following a strict salt-free diet, hemodialysis, vomiting and diarrhea), with severe heart failure (both in the presence of concomitant renal failure and in its absence), with initially low blood pressure, with stenosis of the renal arteries or stenosis of the artery of the only functioning kidney, cirrhosis of the liver, accompanied by edema and ascites. It is necessary to systematically monitor the appearance of clinical signs of dehydration and salt loss, and regularly measure the concentration of electrolytes in the blood plasma. A pronounced decrease in blood pressure when taking the drug for the first time is not an obstacle to further prescription of the drug. After restoration of blood volume and blood pressure, treatment can be continued, using a lower dose of the drug or monotherapy with one of its components. Blocking the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system with ACE inhibitors can lead, along with a sharp drop in blood pressure, to an increase in plasma creatinine, indicating functional kidney failure, sometimes acute. These conditions occur rarely. However, in all such cases, treatment should be started carefully and carried out gradually. When treating with Noliprel, it is necessary to systematically monitor the concentration of creatinine in the blood plasma. While taking Noliprel, it is necessary to regularly monitor the concentration of potassium in the blood plasma. In elderly or debilitated patients, it is necessary to take into account the risk of a decrease in potassium concentration below the permissible level (less than 3.4 mmol/l). This group should also include people taking several different medications, patients with liver cirrhosis, which is accompanied by the appearance of edema or ascites, patients with coronary artery disease or heart failure. A decrease in potassium levels increases the toxicity of cardiac glycosides and increases the risk of developing arrhythmias. Low potassium levels, bradycardia, and an increase in the QT interval are risk factors for the development of arrhythmias, which can be fatal. It should be borne in mind that the excipients of the drug Noliprel include lactose monohydrate. As a result, this drug is not recommended for use in persons with lactase deficiency, galactosemia, or glucose/galactose malabsorption syndrome. While taking Noliprel (especially at the beginning of the course of therapy), caution should be exercised when driving a car and performing work that requires increased attention and a high speed of psychomotor reactions. Storage conditions List B. The drug should be stored out of the reach of children at a temperature not exceeding 30°C.

Noliprel A Forte tablets 5 mg + 1.25 mg 30 pcs. in Moscow

The use of Noliprel® is not accompanied by a significant reduction in the frequency of side effects, with the exception of hypokalemia, compared with perindopril and indapamide at the lowest approved doses. When initiating therapy with two antihypertensive drugs that the patient has not previously received, an increased risk of idiosyncrasy cannot be excluded. Careful monitoring of the patient can minimize this risk.

The simultaneous use of a combination of perindopril and indapamide with lithium preparations is not recommended.

Renal dysfunction

Therapy is contraindicated in patients with severe renal failure (creatinine clearance less than 30 ml/min). In some patients with hypertension without previous obvious renal impairment, laboratory signs of functional renal failure may appear during therapy. In this case, treatment should be stopped. In the future, you can resume combination therapy using low doses of drugs, or use drugs in monotherapy. Such patients require regular monitoring of serum potassium and creatinine levels - 2 weeks after the start of therapy and every 2 months thereafter. Renal failure occurs more often in patients with severe heart failure or underlying renal impairment, including stenosis of one or two renal arteries.

As a rule, the use of perindopril and indapamide is not recommended for patients with bilateral renal artery stenosis or stenosis of a single functioning kidney.

Arterial hypotension and water-electrolyte imbalance

Hyponatremia is associated with a risk of sudden development of arterial hypotension (especially in patients with stenosis of one or two renal arteries). Therefore, during dynamic monitoring of patients, attention should be paid to possible symptoms of dehydration and decreased levels of electrolytes in the blood plasma, for example, after diarrhea or vomiting. Such patients require regular monitoring of plasma electrolyte levels.

In case of severe arterial hypotension, intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution may be required.

Potassium level

Excipients

It should be taken into account that the excipients of the drug include lactose monohydrate. Noliprel® should not be prescribed to patients with hereditary galactose intolerance, lactase deficiency and glucose-galactose malabsorption.

Perindopril

Neutropenia/agranulocytosis

After discontinuation of ACE inhibitors, signs of neutropenia disappear on their own. Perindopril should be used with extreme caution in patients with diffuse connective tissue diseases, while taking immunosuppressive drugs, allopurinol or procainamide, and with simultaneous exposure to these factors, especially in patients with underlying renal impairment. Some patients developed severe infections, in some cases resistant to intensive antibiotic therapy. When prescribing perindopril to such patients, it is recommended to periodically monitor the number of leukocytes in the blood. Patients should report any signs of infectious diseases (eg, sore throat, fever) to their doctor.

Hypersensitivity/angioedema (Quincke's edema)

When taking ACE inhibitors (including perindopril), in rare cases, the development of angioedema of the face, extremities, lips, tongue, glottis and/or larynx may occur. If symptoms appear, perindopril should be discontinued immediately and the patient should be observed until signs of edema completely disappear. If the swelling affects only the face and lips, it usually resolves on its own, although antihistamines may be used to treat symptoms.

Patients with a history of angioedema not associated with taking ACE inhibitors may have an increased risk of developing it when taking drugs of this group.

In rare cases, angioedema of the intestine develops during therapy with ACE inhibitors. In this case, patients experience abdominal pain as an isolated symptom or in combination with nausea and vomiting, in some cases without previous angioedema of the face and with normal levels of C-1 esterase. The diagnosis is made using computed tomography of the abdominal region, ultrasound, or at the time of surgery. Symptoms disappear after stopping ACE inhibitors. In patients with abdominal pain receiving ACE inhibitors, the possibility of developing angioedema of the intestine must be taken into account when making a differential diagnosis.

Anaphylactoid reactions during desensitization

Anaphylactoid reactions during LDL apheresis

In rare cases, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions may occur in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during low-density lipoprotein (LDL) apheresis using dextran sulfate. To prevent an anaphylactoid reaction, ACE inhibitor therapy should be temporarily discontinued before each apheresis procedure.

Hemodialysis

Anaphylactoid reactions have been reported in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during hemodialysis using high-flux membranes (eg, AN69). Therefore, it is advisable to use a different type of membrane or use an antihypertensive drug of a different pharmacotherapeutic group.

Potassium-sparing diuretics and potassium supplements

As a rule, the combined use of perindopril and potassium-sparing diuretics, as well as potassium preparations and potassium-containing table salt substitutes is not recommended.

Cough

During therapy with an ACE inhibitor, a dry cough may occur. The cough persists for a long time while taking drugs of this group and disappears after their discontinuation. If a patient develops a dry cough, one should be aware of the possible connection of this symptom with taking an ACE inhibitor. If the attending physician believes that ACE inhibitor therapy is necessary for the patient, the drug may be continued.

Use in pediatrics

Noliprel® should not be prescribed to children and adolescents under the age of 18 years due to the lack of data on the effectiveness and safety of the use of perindopril as monotherapy or as part of combination therapy in patients in this age group.

Risk of arterial hypotension and/or renal failure (in patients with heart failure, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, etc.)

The use of an ACE inhibitor causes a blockade of this system and therefore may be accompanied by a sharp decrease in blood pressure and/or an increase in plasma creatinine levels, indicating the development of functional renal failure. These phenomena are more often observed when taking the first dose of the drug or during the first two weeks of therapy. Sometimes these conditions develop acutely and during other periods of therapy. In such cases, when resuming therapy, it is recommended to use the drug at a lower dose and then gradually increase the dose.

Elderly patients

Atherosclerosis

Patients with renovascular hypertension

The treatment method for renovascular hypertension is revascularization. However, the use of ACE inhibitors has a beneficial effect in patients both awaiting surgery and in cases where such surgery cannot be performed.

Treatment with Noliprel® in patients with diagnosed or suspected renal artery stenosis should begin with a low dose of the drug in a hospital setting, monitoring renal function and potassium concentration in the blood plasma. Some patients may develop functional renal failure, which disappears when the drug is discontinued.

Other risk groups

In persons with chronic heart failure (stage IV) and patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (risk of spontaneous increase in potassium concentration), treatment should begin with a low dose of the drug (half a tablet) and under constant medical supervision.

Patients with arterial hypertension and coronary heart disease should not stop taking beta-blockers: ACE inhibitors should be used together with beta-blockers.

Patients with diabetes mellitus

When prescribing the drug to patients with diabetes mellitus receiving oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin, blood glucose levels must be carefully monitored during the first month of therapy.

Ethnic differences

Perindopril, like other ACE inhibitors, apparently has a less pronounced hypotensive effect in patients of the Negroid race compared to representatives of other races. Perhaps this difference is due to the fact that patients with arterial hypertension of the Negroid race more often have low renin activity.

Surgery/General anesthesia

It is recommended to stop taking long-acting ACE inhibitors (including perindopril) 12 hours before surgery.

Aortic stenosis / Mitral stenosis / Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ACE inhibitors should be prescribed with caution to patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Liver failure

In rare cases, cholestatic jaundice occurs while taking ACE inhibitors. As this syndrome progresses, fulminant liver necrosis develops, sometimes with death. The mechanism of development of this syndrome is unclear. If jaundice or a significant increase in the activity of liver enzymes occurs while taking ACE inhibitors, you should stop taking the drug and consult a doctor.

Anemia

Hyperkalemia

Hyperkalemia may develop during treatment with ACE inhibitors, including perindopril. Risk factors for hyperkalemia include renal failure, decreased renal function, advanced age, diabetes mellitus, certain concomitant conditions (dehydration, acute decompensated heart failure, metabolic acidosis), concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics (such as spironolactone, eplerenone, triamterene, amiloride), and potassium preparations or potassium-containing substitutes for table salt, as well as the use of other drugs that increase the level of potassium in the blood plasma (for example, heparin). The use of potassium supplements, potassium-sparing diuretics, and potassium-containing table salt substitutes can lead to a significant increase in potassium levels in the blood, especially in patients with reduced renal function. Hyperkalemia can cause serious, sometimes fatal, abnormal heart rhythms. If a combination of the above drugs is necessary, treatment should be carried out with caution, against the background of regular monitoring of potassium levels in the blood serum.

Indapamide

When thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are prescribed to patients with impaired liver function, hepatic encephalopathy may develop. In this case, diuretics should be stopped immediately.

Photosensitivity

Content of sodium ions in blood plasma

Content of potassium ions in blood plasma

Therapy with thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics is associated with a risk of hypokalemia. Hypokalemia (less than 3.4 mmol/l) should be avoided in the following high-risk patients: elderly patients, debilitated patients or those receiving concomitant drug therapy, patients with liver cirrhosis, peripheral edema or ascites, coronary artery disease, heart failure. Hypokalemia in these patients enhances the toxic effect of cardiac glycosides and increases the risk of developing arrhythmias.

Patients with an increased QT interval are also at increased risk, and it does not matter whether this increase is caused by congenital causes or the effect of drugs.

Hypokalemia, like bradycardia, contributes to the development of severe cardiac arrhythmias (especially arrhythmias), which can be fatal. In all the cases described above, more regular monitoring of the content of potassium ions in the blood plasma is necessary. The first measurement of potassium ion concentration should be carried out within the first week from the start of therapy.

If hypokalemia is detected, appropriate treatment should be prescribed.

Content of calcium ions in blood plasma

Plasma glucose levels

It is necessary to monitor blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus, especially in the presence of hypokalemia.

Uric acid

In patients with elevated levels of uric acid in the blood plasma during therapy, the frequency of gout attacks may increase.

Diuretics and kidney function

Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are fully effective only in patients with normal or slightly impaired renal function (plasma creatinine in adults below 25 mg/l or 220 µmol/l). In elderly patients, creatinine clearance is calculated taking into account age, body weight and gender.

At the beginning of treatment with diuretics, patients due to hypovolemia and hyponatremia may experience a temporary decrease in glomerular filtration rate and an increase in the concentration of urea and creatinine in the blood plasma. This transient functional renal failure is not dangerous for patients with unchanged renal function, but its severity may increase in patients with renal failure.

Athletes

Indapamide may give a positive reaction during doping control.

Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and machinery

The action of the substances included in the drug Noliprel® does not lead to impairment of psychomotor reactions. However, some patients may develop different individual reactions in response to a decrease in blood pressure, especially at the beginning of therapy or when other antihypertensive drugs are added to the therapy. In this case, the ability to drive a car or operate other machinery may be reduced.

Instructions for use of Noliprel (Method and dosage)

It is advisable to take Noliprel tablets in the morning. The medicine is prescribed one tablet per day. The instructions for Noliprel Forte provide for a similar treatment regimen. Noliprel A and Noliprel A Bi Forte are prescribed to patients 1 tablet per day. If patients have creatinine clearance equal to or greater than 30 ml/min, then there is no need to reduce the dose. If clearance equals or exceeds 60 ml per day, then during treatment it is necessary to carefully monitor the level of potassium and creatinine in the blood.

If necessary, after several months of treatment, the doctor may increase the dose by prescribing Noliprel A Forte or another type of this drug instead of Noliprel.

Noliprel®

Perindopril, indapamide

The use of Noliprel® is not accompanied by a significant reduction in the frequency of side effects, with the exception of hypokalemia, compared with perindopril and indapamide in the lowest approved doses (see section “Side Effects”). When initiating therapy with two antihypertensive drugs that the patient has not previously received, an increased risk of idiosyncrasy cannot be excluded. Careful monitoring of the patient can minimize this risk.

Lithium preparations

The simultaneous use of a combination of perindopril and indapamide with lithium preparations is not recommended (see section “Interaction with other drugs”).

Renal dysfunction

Such patients require regular monitoring of serum potassium and creatinine levels - 2 weeks after the start of therapy and every 2 months thereafter. Renal failure occurs more often in patients with severe heart failure or underlying renal impairment, including stenosis of one or two renal arteries.

As a rule, the use of perindopril and indapamide is not recommended for patients with bilateral renal artery stenosis or stenosis of a single functioning kidney.

When thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are prescribed to patients with impaired liver function, hepatic encephalopathy may develop. In this case, diuretics should be stopped immediately.

Photosensitivity

While taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics, cases of photosensitivity reactions have been reported (see section "Side effects"). If photosensitivity reactions develop while taking the drug, treatment should be discontinued. If it is necessary to continue diuretic therapy, it is recommended to protect the skin from exposure to sunlight or artificial UV rays.

Water and electrolyte balance

Content of sodium ions in blood plasma

Content of potassium ions in blood plasma

Patients with an increased QT interval are also at increased risk, and it does not matter whether this increase is caused by congenital causes or the effect of drugs.

If hypokalemia is detected, appropriate treatment should be prescribed.

Content of calcium ions in blood plasma

Plasma glucose levels

It is necessary to monitor blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus, especially in the presence of hypokalemia.

In patients with elevated levels of uric acid in the blood plasma during therapy, the frequency of gout attacks may increase.

Diuretics and kidney function

Athletes

Indapamide may give a positive reaction during doping control.

Overdose

In case of an overdose of the drug, there is a severe decrease in blood pressure, nausea, vomiting, dizziness , mood instability, symptoms of renal failure, and electrolyte imbalance. In this case, you need to immediately bring the water-electrolyte balance back to normal, rinse the stomach, and take enterosorbents. Noliprel metabolites can be removed using dialysis. If necessary, intravenous saline is administered.

Interaction

Noliprel should not be taken at the same time as lithium medications. If it is impossible to discontinue one of the drugs, the lithium level in the blood should be closely monitored.

With simultaneous treatment with potassium-sparing diuretics or drugs with potassium, the concentration of potassium in the blood may increase. This combination is recommended only for hypokalemia.

When indapamide with vincamine, bepridil, sultopride, halofantrine, as well as with simultaneous intravenous administration of erythromycin , arrhythmia and bradycardia may occur.

Sometimes, with simultaneous treatment with Insulin and Noliprel, hypoglycemia may develop.

When taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, the antihypertensive properties of Noliprel are inhibited. If you are dehydrated, this combination of medications can cause kidney problems or kidney failure.

When treated with Noliprel and antipsychotics or tricyclic antidepressants, orthostatic hypotension may develop.

Due to the retention of water and electrolytes in the body, with simultaneous treatment with Noliprel and mineralocorticoids, glucocorticosteroids, stimulant laxatives, tetracosactide, amphotericin B, the hypotensive effect is reduced and the likelihood of hypokalemia increases.

Due to the possibility of developing hypokalemia, the risk of toxic effects of cardiac glycosides increases.

When combined with Metformin, acidosis may develop .

Before using iodine-containing X-ray contrast agents with Noliprel, the body must be adequately hydrated.

The simultaneous use of calcium salts can provoke hypercalcemia.

Concomitant treatment with cyclosporine may increase blood creatinine levels.

When starting therapy with two antihypertensive drugs that the patient has not previously received, an increased risk of developing idiosyncrasy cannot be excluded. Careful monitoring of the patient can minimize this risk.

Renal dysfunction

Therapy is contraindicated in patients with severe renal failure (creatinine Cl less than 30 ml/min). In some patients with arterial hypertension without previous obvious renal impairment, laboratory signs of functional renal failure may appear during therapy. In this case, treatment should be stopped. In the future, you can resume combination therapy using low doses of drugs, or use drugs in monotherapy.

Arterial hypotension and water-electrolyte imbalance

In case of severe arterial hypotension, intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution may be required.

Transient arterial hypotension is not a contraindication for continued therapy. After restoration of blood volume and blood pressure, therapy can be resumed using low doses of drugs, or drugs can be used as monotherapy.

Potassium level

The combined use of perindopril and indapamide does not prevent the development of hypokalemia, especially in patients with diabetes mellitus or renal failure. As in the case of the combined use of an antihypertensive drug and a diuretic, regular monitoring of the level of potassium in the blood plasma is necessary.

Excipients

Lithium preparations

The simultaneous use of a combination of perindopril and indapamide with lithium preparations is not recommended (see “Contraindications”, “Interaction”).

Perindopril

Neutropenia/agranulocytosis

Angioedema (Quincke's edema)

When taking ACE inhibitors, incl. and perindopril, in rare cases, the development of angioedema of the face, extremities, lips, tongue, glottis and/or larynx may occur. If symptoms appear, perindopril should be discontinued immediately and the patient should be observed until signs of edema completely disappear. If the swelling affects only the face and lips, it usually resolves on its own, although antihistamines may be used to treat symptoms.

Angioedema, accompanied by swelling of the larynx, can be fatal. Swelling of the tongue, glottis, or larynx can lead to airway obstruction. If such symptoms appear, you should immediately administer subcutaneous epinephrine (adrenaline) at a dilution of 1:1000 (0.3 or 0.5 ml) and/or ensure airway patency.

Patients with a history of angioedema, not associated with taking ACE inhibitors, may have an increased risk of developing it when taking drugs of this group (see “Contraindications”).

In rare cases, angioedema of the intestine develops during therapy with ACE inhibitors.

Anaphylactoid reactions during desensitization

Anaphylactoid reactions during LDL apheresis

In rare cases, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions may occur in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during LDL apheresis using dextran sulfate or during hemodialysis using high-flow membranes. To prevent an anaphylactoid reaction, ACE inhibitor therapy should be temporarily discontinued at least 24 hours before the apheresis procedure.

Cough

Children and teenagers

Risk of arterial hypotension and/or renal failure (in patients with heart failure, fluid and electrolyte imbalance, etc.)

In some pathological conditions, significant activation of the RAAS system may be observed, especially with severe hypovolemia and a decrease in the level of plasma electrolytes (due to a salt-free diet or long-term use of diuretics), in patients with initially low blood pressure, with bilateral renal artery stenosis or with stenosis of the artery of a single kidney , chronic heart failure or cirrhosis of the liver with edema and ascites.

Elderly patients

Atherosclerosis

The risk of arterial hypotension exists in all patients, however, special care should be taken when using the drug in patients with coronary artery disease and cerebrovascular insufficiency. In such patients, treatment should be started with low doses.

Patients with renovascular hypertension

Other risk groups

Patients with arterial hypertension and coronary artery disease should not stop taking beta-blockers: ACE inhibitors should be used together with beta-blockers.

Anemia

Surgery/general anesthesia

It is recommended to stop taking long-acting ACE inhibitors, incl. perindopril, the day before surgery. It is necessary to warn the anesthesiologist that the patient is taking ACE inhibitors.

Aortic stenosis/hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ACE inhibitors should be prescribed with caution to patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Liver failure

Indapamide

In the presence of liver dysfunction, taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics can lead to the development of hepatic encephalopathy. In this case, you should immediately stop taking the drug.

Water and electrolyte balance

Content of sodium ions in blood plasma.

Content of potassium ions in blood plasma.

Therapy with thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics is associated with a risk of hypokalemia. Hypokalemia (less than 3.4 mmol/l) should be avoided in the following categories of high-risk patients: elderly people, debilitated patients or those receiving concomitant drug therapy, patients with liver cirrhosis, peripheral edema or ascites, coronary artery disease, heart failure. Hypokalemia enhances the toxic effect of cardiac glycosides and increases the risk of developing arrhythmias.

The high-risk group also includes patients with an increased QT interval, and it does not matter whether this increase is caused by congenital causes or the effect of drugs.

Hypokalemia, like bradycardia, contributes to the development of severe cardiac arrhythmias, especially arrhythmias, which can be fatal. In all the cases described above, more regular monitoring of the content of potassium ions in the blood plasma is necessary. The first measurement of potassium ion concentration should be carried out within the first week from the start of therapy.

If hypokalemia is detected, appropriate treatment should be prescribed.

Content of calcium ions in blood plasma.

Glucose content in blood plasma.

It is necessary to monitor blood glucose levels in patients with diabetes mellitus, especially in the presence of hypokalemia.

Uric acid.

In patients with elevated levels of uric acid in the blood plasma during therapy, the frequency of gout attacks may increase.

Diuretics and kidney function.

Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are fully effective only in patients with normal or slightly impaired renal function (plasma creatinine in adults below 25 mg/l or 220 µmol/l).

Photosensitivity

Athletes

Indapamide may give a positive reaction during doping control.

Effect on the ability to drive a car or use mechanical devices.

The action of the substances included in the drug Noliprel® A does not lead to impairment of psychomotor reactions. However, some people may develop different individual reactions in response to lowering blood pressure, especially at the beginning of therapy or when other antihypertensive drugs are added to therapy. In this case, the ability to drive a car or operate other machinery may be reduced.

special instructions

People who have been prescribed treatment with Noliprel need adequate dehydration of the body to prevent a sharp decrease in blood pressure.

People with heart failure may be treated with beta blockers at the same time.

When treated with Noliprel, a positive reaction is observed during a doping test.

In the first weeks of treatment, it is important to drive vehicles or operate precision machinery carefully when treating with Noliprel.

If during treatment there is a significant decrease in pressure, it may be necessary to administer 0.9% sodium chloride intravenously.

Treatment of patients with cerebral circulatory insufficiency or coronary heart disease should begin with small doses of Noliprel.

In people who have very high levels of uric acid in the blood, when treated with varieties of the drug Noliprel, the risk of developing gout .

Instructions for use NOLIPREL® A (NOLIPREL A)

Perindopril

Neutropenia, agranulocytosis

Neutropenia/agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia and anemia were observed while taking ACE inhibitors. In patients with normal liver function and in the absence of other complicating factors, neutropenia rarely develops. Perindopril should be used with extreme caution in patients with diffuse connective tissue diseases, while taking immunosuppressants, allopurinol or procainamide, especially in patients with pre-existing liver dysfunction. Some of these patients developed severe infections, in some cases resistant to intensive antibiotic therapy. When prescribing perindopril to such patients, it is recommended to periodically monitor the number of leukocytes in the blood. Patients should report any signs of infectious diseases (eg, sore throat, fever) to their doctor.

Hypersensitivity/angioedema

When taking ACE inhibitors, incl. and perindopril, in rare cases, the development of angioedema of the face, extremities, lips, mucous membranes, tongue, vocal cords and/or larynx may occur. These reactions may occur at any time during therapy. In such cases, the drug should be stopped immediately and the necessary monitoring should be carried out until the symptoms disappear completely. If the swelling affects only the face and lips, it usually goes away on its own, although antihistamines can be used to treat symptoms.

Angioedema, accompanied by swelling of the larynx, can be fatal. Swelling of the tongue, vocal cords, or larynx can lead to airway obstruction. If these symptoms appear, you should immediately administer epinephrine solution 1:

1000 (0.3-0.5 ml) subcutaneously and/or ensure airway patency.

There are reports that black patients are more likely to experience angioedema when treated with ACE inhibitors than patients of other races.

Patients who have had angioedema not associated with taking ACE inhibitors may have an increased risk of developing it when taking drugs of this group.

In rare cases, angioedema of the intestine develops during therapy with ACE inhibitors. In this case, patients experience abdominal pain (with or without nausea and vomiting), in some cases, without previous angioedema of the face and with normal C1-esterase levels. The diagnosis is made using computed tomography of the abdominal region, ultrasound, or at the time of surgery. Symptoms disappear after stopping ACE inhibitors. Therefore, in patients with abdominal pain receiving ACE inhibitors, when carrying out differential diagnosis, it is necessary to take into account the possibility of developing angioedema of the intestine.

Anaphylactoid reactions during desensitization

There are isolated reports of the development of persistent, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during desensitizing therapy with hymenopteric venom (including bee and aspen). ACE inhibitors should be prescribed with extreme caution to patients prone to allergic reactions and undergoing desensitization; their use should be avoided in patients undergoing immunotherapy with insect venom allergens. However, if the patient requires both treatment with ACE inhibitors and desensitization, then the onset of such reactions can be prevented by temporarily stopping the use of ACE inhibitors at least 24 hours before starting the course of desensitization therapy.

Anaphylactoid reactions during LDL apheresis

In rare cases, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions may occur in patients receiving ACE inhibitors during LDL apheresis using dextran sulfate. To prevent an anaphylactoid reaction, ACE inhibitor therapy should be temporarily discontinued before each apheresis procedure.

Patients on hemodialysis

Anaphylactoid reactions have been reported in some patients undergoing hemodialysis using high-flux membranes (eg, AN69®) and concomitantly receiving one of the ACE inhibitors. For such patients, the use of a different type of membrane or a different class of antihypertensive drug should be considered.

Cough

Taking an ACE inhibitor may cause a dry cough. The cough persists for a long time while taking the drug, but disappears when the drug is discontinued. This symptom may have an iatrogenic etiology. If the need to take an ACE inhibitor remains, then continued treatment should be considered.

Risk of arterial hypotension and/or renal failure (in case of heart failure, water and electrolyte deficiency)

With significant loss of water and electrolytes (strict salt-free diet or long-term treatment with diuretics), especially in patients with initially low blood pressure, with renal artery stenosis, congestive heart failure or cirrhosis of the liver, accompanied by edema and ascites, pronounced stimulation of the RAAS occurs. Therefore, inhibition of RAAS activity when taking an ACE inhibitor may lead to a sudden decrease in blood pressure and/or an increase in serum creatinine, indicating functional renal failure. This is most likely when you first take the drug and during the first 2 weeks of treatment. In some, albeit very rare cases, such a disorder develops acutely, and the onset of the process is difficult to predict. In such cases, treatment should be resumed with a lower dose, gradually increasing it.

Elderly patients

Before starting treatment, kidney function and potassium levels should be monitored. To avoid sudden arterial hypotension, the initial dose of the drug is adjusted depending on the degree of decrease in blood pressure, especially in the case of dehydration and loss of electrolytes.

Patients with established atherosclerosis

The risk of arterial hypotension exists in all patients, but the drug should be used with extreme caution in patients with coronary artery disease or cerebrovascular insufficiency. In such cases, treatment should be started with a low dose.

Renovascular hypertension

Renovascular hypertension is treated by revascularization. However, the use of ACE inhibitors may be beneficial in patients with renovascular hypertension awaiting surgery or when surgery is not available.

In patients with an established diagnosis of renal artery stenosis or if it is suspected, treatment with Noliprel® A should begin in the hospital with a small dose under monitoring of renal function and potassium levels, because Some patients developed renal failure, which was reversible when treatment was discontinued.

Other risk groups

In patients with severe acute heart failure (grade IV) and in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (a tendency to spontaneously increase potassium levels), treatment with Noliprel® A should be started with low doses and carried out under constant medical supervision.

Patients with arterial hypertension and coronary insufficiency should not stop taking beta-blockers:

An ACE inhibitor should be used in addition to a beta blocker.

Diabetes

In diabetic patients already taking oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin, glycemic levels should be carefully monitored, especially during the first month of taking an ACE inhibitor.

Ethnic differences

Perindopril, like other ACE inhibitors, may have a less pronounced hypotensive effect in patients of black race compared to representatives of other races. Perhaps this difference is due to the fact that arterial hypertension in patients of the Negroid race very often occurs against the background of low renin activity.

Surgery/anesthesia

ACE inhibitors can cause a drop in blood pressure during anesthesia, especially if the anesthetic used has a hypotensive effect. Therefore, long-acting ACE inhibitors such as perindopril should, if possible, be discontinued 24 hours before surgery.

Aortic or mitral valve stenosis/hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Use ACE inhibitors with caution in patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

Liver dysfunction

In rare cases, ACE inhibitors have been associated with a syndrome that begins with cholestatic jaundice and progresses to fulminant hepatic necrosis and (sometimes) death. The mechanism of this syndrome is not yet clear. In patients receiving ACE inhibitors, if jaundice or a marked increase in liver enzyme activity develops, the ACE inhibitor should be discontinued and a thorough medical examination should be performed.

Hyperkalemia

Elevated serum potassium levels have been reported in some patients treated with ACE inhibitors, including perindopril. Risk factors for the development of hyperkalemia include renal failure, deterioration of renal function, age (> 70 years), diabetes mellitus, intercurrent events such as dehydration, acute heart failure, metabolic acidosis, concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics (eg, spironolactone, eplerenone, triamterene or amiloride), potassium supplements or potassium-containing salt substitutes, or taking other drugs that cause increases in serum potassium (eg, heparin). Taking potassium supplements, potassium-sparing diuretics, or potassium-containing salt substitutes, especially in patients with impaired renal function, may result in significant increases in serum potassium levels. Hyperkalemia can cause serious arrhythmias, sometimes fatal. If concomitant administration of perindopril or the above drugs is considered necessary, they should be taken with caution and with regular monitoring of serum potassium levels.

Indapamide

In patients with impaired liver function, taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics can cause hepatic encephalopathy. In this case, the diuretic should be stopped immediately.

Photosensitivity

Cases of photosensitivity have been reported with the use of thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics. If photosensitivity is noted during treatment, it is recommended to stop taking the drug. If re-administration of a diuretic is considered necessary, it is recommended to protect the skin from the sun and artificial UV radiation.

Water and electrolyte balance

Sodium level.

Before starting treatment, it is necessary to evaluate the sodium content, and further such studies should be carried out regularly. Taking any diuretic medication can cause a decrease in sodium levels, which sometimes leads to a number of serious complications. Initially, a decrease in sodium levels may be asymptomatic, which is why it is necessary to regularly monitor its content. In elderly patients and patients with liver cirrhosis, monitoring should be carried out even more often.

Potassium level.

The main danger when taking thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics is potassium deficiency and, accordingly, hypokalemia. Consideration of the risk of potassium levels falling below acceptable levels (< 3.4 mmol/L) is necessary in persons at increased risk, such as elderly patients and/or patients with impaired or malnutrition, regardless of whether they are taking one or more medications drugs, in patients with liver cirrhosis, which is accompanied by edema and ascites, in patients with coronary artery disease and in patients with heart failure. In such cases, hypokalemia increases the toxicity of cardiac glycosides and increases the risk of developing arrhythmias. Patients with congenital or iatrogenic prolongation of the QT interval are also at risk. Hypokalemia, like bradycardia, is a risk factor for the development of serious cardiac arrhythmias, especially torsade de pointes (TdP), which can be fatal. In any case, potassium levels should be monitored as often as possible. The first determination of plasma potassium should be carried out within the first week after the start of treatment. If potassium levels decrease, dose adjustment is necessary.

Calcium level.

Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics can reduce the excretion of calcium in the urine, which leads to a temporary and slight increase in the concentration of calcium in the blood. A marked increase in calcium levels may be associated with undiagnosed hyperparathyroidism. In this case, treatment should be stopped until the function of the parathyroid gland is examined.

Blood glucose level

In patients with diabetes mellitus, it is necessary to constantly monitor blood glucose levels, especially if potassium levels are simultaneously low.

Uric acid

Patients with high levels of uric acid in the blood may be predisposed to developing gout.

Effect on kidney function

Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics are most effective when renal function is normal or only slightly impaired (serum creatinine is below approximately 2.5 mg/dL, i.e. 220 µmol/L for an adult patient). In elderly patients, plasma creatinine levels should be adjusted for age, weight and gender using the Cockcroft formula:

For women:

the calculation result should be multiplied by 0.85.

At the beginning of treatment, taking diuretics can lead to loss of water and sodium, which in turn leads to hypovolemia. Hypovolemia causes a decrease in glomerular filtration rate. It may be accompanied by an increase in creatinine and urea in the blood. This renal failure is temporary and does not cause undesirable consequences in patients with normal renal function, but in cases of existing impairment, renal failure may worsen.

Athletes

Please note that indapamide may cause a positive reaction during doping control.

Noliprel® A

When taking the combined drug Noliprel® A in low doses, there was no significant reduction in adverse reactions to the drug, except for hypokalemia, compared to the use of the drug components separately. If a patient simultaneously starts taking two new antihypertensive drugs, then an increase in the development of manifestations of idiosyncrasy cannot be ruled out. To minimize this risk, careful monitoring of the patient's condition should be carried out.

The combination of lithium and the combination of perindopril with indapamide is generally not recommended.

Kidney failure.

In patients with severe renal failure (creatinine clearance <30 ml/min), this combination is contraindicated. Treatment should be stopped if a patient suffering from arterial hypertension without visible kidney damage is found to have renal failure during a blood test (renal complex). Treatment can be resumed either with this combination at lower doses or with only one component. Such patients should usually undergo frequent monitoring of serum creatinine and potassium levels for the first time - after 2 weeks of treatment, then once every 2 months during the period of therapeutic stability.

Renal failure was mainly observed in patients with acute heart failure and was also observed in renal artery stenosis. This drug is generally not recommended for patients with bilateral renal artery stenosis or for patients with only one kidney.

Arterial hypotension, deficiency of water and electrolytes.

The risk of a sudden drop in blood pressure increases with low sodium levels (especially in patients with renal artery stenosis). Therefore, during treatment, the state of water and electrolyte balance should be periodically monitored, which may be disturbed due to diarrhea or vomiting. In case of severe arterial hypotension, intravenous infusion of an isotonic solution may be necessary.

Transient arterial hypotension is not a contraindication for continued treatment. After restoration of adequate blood volume and blood pressure, treatment can be resumed either with this combination at lower doses, or with only one component.

Potassium content.

The combination of perindopril and indapamide does not prevent the onset of hypokalemia, especially in patients with diabetes mellitus and in patients with renal failure. As with any antihypertensive drug taken in combination with a diuretic, plasma potassium levels should be regularly monitored during treatment with this combination.

Excipients.

Noliprel® A should not be prescribed to patients with lactose intolerance, lapp lactase deficiency (lactase deficiency of some peoples of the North) or impaired absorption of glucose-galactose.

Use in pediatrics

The effectiveness and tolerability of perindopril in children and adolescents as mono- or as part of combination therapy has not been sufficiently studied.

Impact on the ability to drive vehicles and operate machinery

Perindopril and indapamide in the form of monotherapy or in combination as part of the drug Noliprel® A do not affect the ability to concentrate and the speed of psychomotor reactions. However, in some patients, especially at the beginning of treatment or when combined with another antihypertensive drug, individual reactions may develop with a decrease in blood pressure. This leads to impaired ability to drive vehicles or other mechanisms.

Results of preclinical safety studies

The toxicity of the perindopril/indapamide combination is slightly higher than the toxicity of each component. No renal toxicity was detected in rats. However, this combination causes gastrointestinal toxicity in dogs; in rats, the toxic effect on the maternal body increases (compared to perindopril). These undesirable effects occurred at doses with a very high safety margin compared to the therapeutic doses used.

Preclinical studies conducted separately with perindopril and indapamide revealed neither genotoxic nor teratogenic potential.

Analogs of Noliprel, as well as the drugs Noliprel A Bi Forte, Noliprel A Forte, are other drugs that are used to lower blood pressure and contain similar active ingredients, that is, perindopril and indapamide. Such drugs are Co-prenesa , Prestarium , etc. The price of analogues may be lower than the cost of Noliprel and its varieties.

During pregnancy and lactation

For pregnant women and mothers while breastfeeding , the use of Noliprel is contraindicated. Systematic treatment with these drugs can lead to the development of abnormalities and diseases in the fetus, as well as lead to fetal death. If a woman finds out she is pregnant during treatment, there is no need to terminate the pregnancy, but the patient should be aware of the possible consequences. If blood pressure increases, other antihypertensive therapy is prescribed. If a woman took this drug in the second and third trimesters, an ultrasound of the fetus should be performed to evaluate the condition of its skull and kidney function.

Newborns whose mothers took the drug may suffer from manifestations of arterial hypotension, so they need to be constantly monitored by specialists.

When feeding with breast milk, the drug is contraindicated, so lactation should be stopped during therapy or another drug should be selected.

Reviews of Noliprel

Reviews on forums about Noliprel, as well as about the drugs Noliprel A, Noliprel A Forte, Noliprel A Bi Forte, indicate that this drug effectively lowers blood pressure. The medicine maintains normal blood pressure, reducing the likelihood of strokes and myocardial infarction.

Reviews of Noliprel Forte also often contain information that this medicine and its other varieties allow you to get a positive result in cases where other drugs are ineffective.
