Summary

Salicylates at anti-inflammatory doses can reduce renal prostaglandin synthesis, which may blunt the diuretic and antihypertensive effect of indapamide and impair renal function, especially in dehydrated or elderly patients.

What this interaction means in plain words

Choline magnesium trisalicylate and Indapamide 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.

Evidence level: Moderate

Why it happens

Salicylate inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis causes sodium and fluid retention and reduced renal perfusion, opposing the diuretic.

What to do

Monitor blood pressure, renal function and electrolytes, and ensure adequate hydration. Use the lowest effective salicylate dose or choose paracetamol.
