Summary
Opioids can stimulate antidiuretic hormone release and cause hypotension, which may reduce the diuretic response or add to blood pressure lowering. Patients with heart failure may see diminished fluid removal.
What this interaction means in plain words
Metolazone and Oliceridine have a small, usually unimportant interaction. Most people can take both; the pharmacist may still mention it so that any unexpected effect is recognised.
Metolazone belongs to Cardiovascular; Oliceridine belongs to Musculoskeletal.
Why it happens
Opioid-induced antidiuretic hormone release counteracts diuresis, while opioid-related vasodilation adds to hypotension.
What to do
Monitor urine output, weight and blood pressure, and increase the diuretic dose if diuresis is inadequate. Watch for orthostatic hypotension.
