Résumé
Carbenoxolone has mineralocorticoid-like activity causing sodium and water retention and potassium loss. With torsemide, hypokalemia can be pronounced and the diuretic effect may be opposed.
Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples
Carbenoxolone and Torsemide 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, giving mineralocorticoid excess that adds to loop diuretic potassium wasting.
Conduite à tenir
Avoid the combination where possible. If used together, monitor serum potassium and blood pressure closely and replace potassium as required.
