Résumé
Carbenoxolone has mineralocorticoid-like activity and causes sodium retention and potassium loss. With chlorthalidone, the risk of marked hypokalemia and fluid retention is increased.
Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples
Carbenoxolone and Chlorthalidone 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.
Pourquoi elle survient
Carbenoxolone inhibits 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, enhancing mineralocorticoid effect on renal potassium excretion, which adds to diuretic potassium wasting.
