Summary
This non-acetylated salicylate has a lower effect on prostaglandin synthesis than classic NSAIDs but may still modestly reduce enalapril efficacy and affect renal function in at-risk patients. The risk is greatest with high doses, dehydration or existing kidney disease.
What this interaction means in plain words
Choline magnesium trisalicylate and Enalapril can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.
Why it happens
Salicylate-mediated inhibition of renal prostaglandin synthesis can reduce renal perfusion and oppose ACE inhibitor effects.
What to do
Monitor blood pressure, serum creatinine and potassium when the combination is used, especially in elderly or volume-depleted patients. Use the lowest effective salicylate dose.
What to ask your pharmacist

- Does the dose of either medicine need to change?
- Is there anything I should avoid, such as alcohol or certain foods, while on both?
