Résumé

Candesartan is a second angiotensin receptor blocker given on top of valsartan, which provides dual renin-angiotensin system blockade without added benefit. This raises the risk of hypotension, hyperkalemia and renal impairment, although the thiazide component partly offsets potassium retention.

Amlodipine-hydrochlorothiazide-valsartan and Candesartan can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Amlodipine-hydrochlorothiazide-valsartan belongs to Cardiovascular; Candesartan belongs to Cardiovascular.

Niveau de preuve: High
