Indikasi Terapi:

Spironolactone, an ingredient of spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets, has been shown to be a tumorigen in chronic toxicity studies in rats (see Precautions section). Spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets should be used only in those conditions described below. Unnecessary use of this drug should be avoided. Spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets are indicated for: Edematous conditions for patients with: Usage in Pregnancy. The routine use of diuretics in an otherwise healthy woman is inappropriate and exposes mother and fetus to unnecessary hazard. Diuretics do not prevent development of toxemia of pregnancy, and there is no satisfactory evidence that they are useful in the treatment of developing toxemia. Edema during pregnancy may arise from pathologic causes or from the physiologic and mechanical consequences of pregnancy. Spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets are indicated in pregnancy when edema is due to pathologic causes just as it is in the absence of pregnancy (however, see Precautions: Pregnancy ). Dependent edema in pregnancy, resulting from restriction of venous return by the expanded uterus, is properly treated through elevation of the lower extremities and use of support hose; use of diuretics to lower intravascular volume in this case is unsupported and unnecessary. There is hypervolemia during normal pregnancy which is not harmful to either the fetus or the mother (in the absence of cardiovascular disease), but which is associated with edema, including generalized edema, in the majority of pregnant women. If this edema produces discomfort, increased recumbency will often provide relief. In rare instances, this edema may cause extreme discomfort that is not relieved by rest. In these cases, a short course of diuretics may provide relief and may be appropriate. Spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets are contraindicated in patients with anuria, acute renal insufficiency, significant impairment of renal excretory function, hypercalcemia, hyperkalemia, Addison's disease, and in patients who are allergic to thiazide diuretics or to other sulfonamide-derived drugs. Spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets may also be contraindicated in acute or severe hepatic failure.

ACTIONS / CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Spironolactone and hydrochlorothiazide tablets
are a
combination of two diuretic agents with different but complementary
mechanisms and
sites of action, thereby providing additive diuretic and
antihypertensive effects.
Additionally, the spironolactone component helps to minimize the
potassium loss
characteristically induced by the thiazide component.
The diuretic effect of spironolactone is mediated through its action
as a specific
pharmacologic antagonist of aldosterone, primarily by competitive
binding of receptors
at the aldosterone-dependent sodium-potassium exchange site in the
distal convoluted
renal tubule. Hydrochlorothiazide promotes the excretion of sodium and
water primarily
by inhibiting their reabsorption in the cortical diluting segment of
the distal renal tubule.
