pharmachologic effect
Capozide is a diuretic and antihypertensive drug .
Hydrochlorothiazide , which is part of the drug, is a thiazide diuretic of moderate potency and is capable of reducing the reabsorption of sodium neons at the level of the cortical segment of the loop of Henlev. Lowers blood pressure by changing the reactivity of the vascular wall, reducing the pressor effect of substances with a vasoconstrictor effect ( norepinephrine and epinephrine ) and increasing the depressor effect on the autonomic ganglia. Does not affect the acid-base state.
Captopril is an ACE inhibitor and reduces the release of aldosterone and the formation of angiotensin I and angiotensin II. It has an enhancing effect on renal and coronary blood flow, and also reduces blood pressure, preload, and afterload. Arteries dilate to a greater extent than veins. Long-term use reduces platelet aggregation, increases blood supply to ischemic myocardium, and reduces the severity of hypertrophy of arterial walls and resistive myocardium.
Contraindications
Capozide should not be taken if:
- hypersensitivity to the contents of tablets, sulfonamide , thiazide diuretics;
- under 18 years of age;
- pregnancy and lactation ;

Should be used with caution when:
- simultaneous administration of lithium, procainamide, allopurinol, immunosuppressants, cytostatics, corticosteroids;
- old age (over 65 years);
- periarteritis nodosa , scleroderma and SLE ;
- collagenosis , gout , hypercalcemia , hypovolemia , hyponatremia , hypokalemia , proteinuria ;
- moderate renal dysfunction.
Capozid®
The drug Capozide should not be used to relieve a hypertensive crisis. The use of the drug Capozide in patients with acute myocardial infarction is not recommended due to insufficient experience in clinical use.
Hydrochlorothiazide
Renal dysfunction
In patients with impaired renal function, hydrochlorothiazide may cause azotemia. In case of renal failure, accumulation of hydrochlorothiazide is possible.
In patients with reduced renal function, periodic monitoring of creatinine clearance is necessary. If renal dysfunction progresses and/or oliguria (anuria) occurs, the drug Capozide should be discontinued.
Liver dysfunction
When using thiazide diuretics in patients with impaired liver function, hepatic encephalopathy may develop. In patients with severe liver failure or hepatic encephalopathy, the use of thiazides is contraindicated. In patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment and/or progressive liver disease, hydrochlorothiazide should be used with caution, since even slight changes in fluid and electrolyte balance and serum ammonium accumulation can cause hepatic coma. If symptoms of encephalopathy occur, the drug Capozide should be stopped immediately.
Water-electrolyte balance and metabolic disorders
Thiazide diuretics (including hydrochlorothiazide) can cause a decrease in the volume of circulating fluid (hypovolemia) and disturbances in water and electrolyte balance (including hypokalemia, hyponatremia, hypochloremic alkalosis). Clinical symptoms of fluid and electrolyte imbalance are dry mouth, thirst, weakness, lethargy, fatigue, drowsiness, restlessness, muscle pain or cramps, muscle weakness, marked decrease in blood pressure, oliguria, tachycardia, arrhythmia and gastrointestinal disorders (such as nausea and vomiting). In patients receiving hydrochlorothiazide therapy (especially with long-term course treatment), clinical symptoms of water-electrolyte imbalance should be identified and blood electrolyte levels should be regularly monitored.
Sodium
All diuretics can cause hyponatremia, sometimes leading to severe complications. Hyponatremia and hypovolemia can lead to dehydration and orthostatic hypotension. A concomitant decrease in chlorine ions can lead to secondary compensatory metabolic alkalosis, but the frequency and severity of this effect are insignificant. It is recommended to determine the content of sodium ions in the blood plasma before starting treatment and regularly monitor this indicator while taking drugs containing hydrochlorothiazide.
Potassium
When using thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics, there is a risk of a sharp decrease in the potassium content in the blood plasma and the development of hypokalemia (potassium concentration less than 3.4 mmol/l). Hypokalemia increases the risk of developing heart rhythm disturbances (including severe arrhythmias) and enhances the toxic effect of cardiac glycosides. In addition, hypokalemia (as well as bradycardia) is a condition that contributes to the development of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia of the torsade de pointes type, which can be fatal.
Hypokalemia poses the greatest danger to the following groups of patients: elderly people, patients simultaneously receiving therapy with antiarrhythmic and non-antiarrhythmic drugs that can cause polymorphic ventricular tachycardia of the "pirouette" type or increase the duration of the QT interval on the ECG, patients with impaired liver function, coronary heart disease , chronic heart failure. In addition, patients with an increased QT interval are at increased risk. It does not matter whether this increase is caused by congenital causes or the effect of drugs.
In all the cases described above, it is necessary to avoid the risk of developing hypokalemia and regularly monitor the potassium content in the blood plasma. The first measurement of the content of potassium ions in the blood must be carried out within the first week from the start of treatment. If hypokalemia occurs, appropriate treatment should be prescribed. Hypokalemia can be corrected by using potassium-containing medications or eating foods rich in potassium (dried fruits, fruits, vegetables).
Calcium
Thiazide diuretics may reduce the excretion of calcium ions by the kidneys, leading to a slight and temporary increase in plasma calcium levels. In some patients, with long-term use of thiazide diuretics, pathological changes in the parathyroid glands were observed with hypercalcemia and hyperphosphatemia, but without the typical complications of hyperparathyroidism (nephrolithiasis, decreased bone mineral density, peptic ulcer). Severe hypercalcemia may be a manifestation of previously undiagnosed hyperparathyroidism.
Because of their effect on calcium metabolism, thiazides may interfere with laboratory parameters of parathyroid function. Thiazide diuretics (including hydrochlorothiazide) should be discontinued before testing parathyroid function.
Magnesium
Thiazides have been found to increase renal excretion of magnesium, which can lead to hypomagnesemia. The clinical significance of hypomagnesemia remains unclear.
Glucose
Treatment with thiazide diuretics may impair glucose tolerance. When using hydrochlorothiazide in patients with manifest or latent diabetes mellitus, it is necessary to regularly monitor the concentration of glucose in the blood. Dosage adjustment of hypoglycemic medications may be required.
Uric acid
In patients with gout, the frequency of attacks may increase or the course of gout may worsen. Careful monitoring of patients with gout and impaired uric acid metabolism (hyperuricemia) is necessary.
Lipids
When using hydrochlorothiazide, the concentration of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood plasma may increase.
Acute myopia/secondary angle-closure glaucoma
Hydrochlorothiazide can cause an idiosyncratic reaction, leading to the development of acute myopia and an acute attack of secondary angle-closure glaucoma. Symptoms include: sudden loss of visual acuity or eye pain, usually occurring within hours to weeks of starting hydrochlorothiazide therapy. If left untreated, acute angle-closure glaucoma can lead to irreversible vision loss. If symptoms appear, you should stop taking hydrochlorothiazide as soon as possible. If intraocular pressure remains uncontrolled, emergency medical treatment or surgery may be required. Risk factors for the development of acute angle-closure glaucoma are: a history of an allergic reaction to sulfonamides or penicillin.
Immune system disorders
There are reports that thiazide diuretics (including hydrochlorothiazide) may cause exacerbation or progression of systemic lupus erythematosus, as well as lupus-like reactions.
In patients receiving thiazide diuretics, hypersensitivity reactions may occur even in the absence of a history of allergic reactions or bronchial asthma.
Photosensitivity
There is information about cases of the development of photosensitivity reactions when taking thiazide diuretics. If photosensitivity occurs while taking hydrochlorothiazide, treatment should be discontinued. If continued use of the diuretic is necessary, the skin should be protected from exposure to sunlight or artificial ultraviolet rays.
Athletes
Hydrochlorothiazide may give a positive result during doping control in athletes.
Other
In patients with severe atherosclerosis of the cerebral and coronary arteries, hydrochlorothiazide should be used with extreme caution.
Thiazide diuretics can reduce the amount of iodine bound to plasma proteins without causing signs of thyroid dysfunction.
Non-melanoma skin cancer
Two pharmacoepidemiological studies using data from the Danish National Cancer Registry demonstrated an association between hydrochlorothiazide use and an increased risk of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. The risk of developing NMSC increased with increasing total (cumulative) dose of hydrochlorothiazide. A possible mechanism for the development of NMSC is the photosensitizing effect of hydrochlorothiazide.
Patients taking hydrochlorothiazide as monotherapy or in combination with other drugs should be aware of the risk of developing NMSC. It is recommended that such patients undergo regular skin examination to identify any new suspicious lesions as well as changes in existing skin lesions.
Any suspicious skin changes should be reported to your doctor immediately. Suspicious areas of skin should be examined by a specialist. To clarify the diagnosis, histological examination of skin biopsies may be required.
To minimize the risk of developing NMSC, patients should be advised to follow preventive measures, such as limiting exposure to sunlight and UV rays, and using appropriate protective equipment.
In patients with a history of non-melanoma skin cancer, it is recommended to reconsider the use of hydrochlorothiazide.
Captopril
Arterial hypotension
In patients with arterial hypertension, when using captopril, severe arterial hypotension is observed only in rare cases. The likelihood of developing this condition increases with increased fluid loss and hyponatremia (for example, after intensive treatment with diuretics, restriction of sodium intake, in patients on dialysis, and in patients with diarrhea or vomiting).
Captopril should be prescribed with caution to patients on a low-salt or salt-free diet. Circulating blood volume and blood sodium levels should be adjusted before captopril is prescribed. The possibility of a sharp decrease in blood pressure can be minimized by first withdrawing (4-7 days before) the diuretic or increasing sodium chloride intake (about a week before starting treatment), or by prescribing low doses of captopril at the beginning of treatment (6.25-12 .5 mg/day). Renal function should be regularly monitored before and during treatment with captopril.
Excessive reduction in blood pressure due to antihypertensive medications may increase the risk of myocardial infarction or stroke in patients with coronary heart disease or cerebrovascular disease. If arterial hypotension develops, the patient should take a horizontal position with legs elevated. Intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution may be required.
Aortic or mitral stenosis/hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy
Like all drugs that have a vasodilating effect, ACE inhibitors should be used with extreme caution in patients with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. In case of hemodynamically significant obstruction, the use of captopril is not recommended.
Renal dysfunction
Some patients with kidney disease, especially those with severe renal artery stenosis, experience increases in serum urea nitrogen and creatinine concentrations after lowering blood pressure. This increase is usually reversible when captopril therapy is discontinued. In these cases, it may be necessary to reduce the dose of captopril and/or discontinue the diuretic.
With long-term use of captopril, approximately 20% of patients experience an increase in serum urea and creatinine concentrations by more than 20% compared with normal or baseline values.
In less than 5% of patients, especially with severe nephropathy, treatment discontinuation is required due to an increase in creatinine concentration.
Renovascular hypertension
Patients with bilateral renal artery stenosis or stenosis of the artery of a solitary kidney have an increased risk of developing arterial hypotension and renal failure when using ACE inhibitors. Renal failure may initially manifest itself as only slight changes in plasma creatinine levels. The use of captopril in such patients is not recommended.
Kidney transplant
There is no experience with the use of captopril in patients who have recently undergone transplantation. Therefore, the use of captopril in such patients is not recommended.
Proteinuria
When using captopril, 0.7% of patients had proteinuria more than 1000 mg per day. In 90% of cases, proteinuria occurred in patients with impaired renal function, as well as when using high doses of captopril (more than 150 mg per day). Approximately 20% of patients with proteinuria developed nephrotic syndrome. In most cases, proteinuria disappeared or decreased in severity after taking captopril within 6 months, regardless of whether the drug was stopped or not. Renal function tests (blood urea nitrogen and creatinine concentrations) in patients with proteinuria were almost always within normal limits. In patients with kidney disease, the protein content in the urine should be determined before starting treatment and periodically throughout the course of therapy.
Liver dysfunction
In rare cases, the use of ACE inhibitors has been accompanied by the development of a syndrome that begins with the appearance of cholestatic jaundice or hepatitis and progresses to fulminant liver necrosis, sometimes with death. The mechanism of development of this syndrome is unknown. If a patient receiving ACE inhibitor therapy develops jaundice or a significant increase in liver enzyme activity, captopril treatment should be discontinued and appropriate adjuvant therapy should be instituted. The patient should be under appropriate supervision.
Neutropenia/agranulocytosis/thrombocytopenia/anemia
Cases of neutropenia/agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia and anemia have been reported in patients taking ACE inhibitors. In patients with normal renal function and in the absence of other disorders, neutropenia is rare. In renal failure, simultaneous administration of captopril and allopurinol led to neutropenia.
Captopril should be used with extreme caution in patients with systemic connective tissue diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus, scleroderma, etc.) taking immunosuppressants, allopurinol or procainamide, or a combination of these complicating factors, especially if there are pre-existing renal dysfunction.
In 13% of cases with neutropenia, death was observed. In almost all cases, death was observed in patients with connective tissue diseases, renal or heart failure, while taking immunosuppressants, or a combination of both of these factors.
Due to the fact that the majority of fatal cases of neutropenia due to ACE inhibitors developed in such patients, their white blood cell count should be monitored before starting treatment, in the first 3 months - every 2 weeks, then every 2 months. In all patients, the white blood cell count should be monitored monthly for the first 3 months after starting captopril therapy, then every 2 months. If the number of leukocytes is below 4000/μl, a repeat general blood test is indicated; below 1000/μl, the drug is stopped while monitoring the patient continues. Typically, restoration of the number of neutrophils occurs within 2 weeks after discontinuation of captopril.
Some patients developed serious infectious diseases, which in some cases did not respond to intensive antibiotic therapy. When using captopril in patients with a high risk of neutropenia/agranulocytosis, regular monitoring of the number of leukocytes in the blood is recommended. Patients should be warned to seek immediate medical attention if any signs of an infectious disease (eg, fever, sore throat) occur.
Hypersensitivity reactions/angioedema
Rare cases of angioedema of the face, extremities, lips, tongue, vocal folds and/or larynx have been observed with the use of ACE inhibitors, including captopril.
Angioedema may develop at any time during treatment.
If angioedema develops, you should immediately stop taking captopril and carefully monitor the patient's condition until symptoms disappear completely.
If the swelling is localized to the face, no special treatment is usually required (antihistamines can be used to reduce the severity of symptoms). Even in cases where only swelling of the tongue is observed without the development of respiratory distress syndrome, patients may require long-term observation, since therapy with antihistamines and corticosteroids may not be sufficient.
Angioedema, associated with swelling of the larynx and tongue, can be fatal in very rare cases. If the swelling spreads to the tongue, pharynx or larynx and there is a threat of developing airway obstruction, 0.3-0.5 ml of a 0.1% solution of epinephrine (adrenaline) should be immediately administered subcutaneously and/or ensure airway patency ( intubation or tracheostomy).
In rare cases, during therapy with ACE inhibitors, intestinal edema (angioedema of the intestines) has developed, which is manifested by abdominal pain in combination with or without nausea and vomiting, sometimes without previous angioedema of the face and with normal Cl-esterase levels. Diagnosis is made using abdominal computed tomography, ultrasound, or surgery. Symptoms disappeared after stopping the ACE inhibitors. The possibility of developing intestinal edema must be taken into account when carrying out the differential diagnosis of abdominal pain in patients taking ACE inhibitors.
Patients with a history of angioedema not associated with ACE inhibitors may be at greater risk of developing angioedema during ACE inhibitor therapy.
In representatives of the Negroid race, cases of the development of angioedema when using ACE inhibitors were observed with a higher frequency compared to representatives of other races.
An increased risk of developing angioneurotic edema was observed in patients simultaneously taking ACE inhibitors and drugs such as mTOR inhibitors (temsirolimus, sirolimus, everolimus), dipeptidyl peptidase type IV inhibitors (sitagliptin, saxagliptin, vildagliptin, linagliptin), estramustine, neutral endopeptidase inhibitors ( racecadotril, sacubitril) and tissue plasminogen activators.
Anaphylactoid reactions during desensitization with an allergen from Hymenoptera venom
In rare cases, during therapy with ACE inhibitors, life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions were observed in patients undergoing desensitization with an allergen from the venom of Hymenoptera. In such patients, these reactions were prevented by temporarily stopping ACE inhibitor therapy before desensitization began. The use of captopril should be avoided in patients receiving bee venom immunotherapy.
Anaphylactoid reactions during low-density lipoprotein apheresis (LDL apheresis)
Life-threatening anaphylactoid reactions have rarely been observed in patients taking ACE inhibitors during LDL apheresis using dextran sulfate. The development of these reactions can be prevented by temporarily discontinuing the ACE inhibitor before each LDL apheresis procedure.
Hemodialysis using high-flow membranes
When performing hemodialysis in patients receiving ACE inhibitors, the use of high-flow polyacrylonitrile dialysis membranes (for example, AN69®) should be avoided, since in such cases the risk of developing anaphylactoid reactions increases. In such cases, it is necessary to use a different type of dialysis membrane or use antihypertensive drugs of other classes.
Diabetes
In patients with diabetes mellitus receiving oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin, blood glucose concentrations should be regularly monitored while using ACE inhibitors.
Patients taking oral hypoglycemic agents or insulin should be informed before starting the use of ACE inhibitors of the need to regularly monitor blood glucose concentrations (hypoglycemia), especially during the first month of simultaneous use of these drugs.
Cough
When taking ACE inhibitors, a characteristic cough is often observed. As a rule, the cough is non-productive, constant and stops after discontinuation of the drug. Cough associated with the use of ACE inhibitors should be considered in the differential diagnosis of dry cough.
Surgery/general anesthesia
During major surgical operations, as well as when using general anesthesia agents that have an antihypertensive effect, patients taking ACE inhibitors may experience an excessive decrease in blood pressure (since captopril blocks the formation of angiotensin II, caused by compensatory release of renin). In such cases, to correct low blood pressure, measures aimed at increasing the volume of circulating blood are used.
Hyperkalemia
In some cases, against the background of the use of ACE inhibitors, incl. captopril, an increase in serum potassium levels is observed.
Risk factors for the development of hyperkalemia are renal failure, old age (over 65 years), diabetes mellitus, some concomitant conditions (decrease in blood volume, acute heart failure in the stage of decompensation, metabolic acidosis), simultaneous use of potassium-sparing diuretics (such as spironolactone, eplerenone, triamterene or amiloride), as well as potassium preparations, potassium-containing table salt substitutes and other drugs that increase the level of potassium in the blood plasma (such as heparin, tacrolimus, cyclosporine; drugs containing co-trimoxazole [trimethoprim + sulfamethoxazole]).
The use of potassium supplements, potassium-sparing diuretics, or potassium-containing table salt substitutes, especially in patients with impaired renal function, can lead to a significant increase in serum potassium levels. Hyperkalemia can cause serious heart rhythm disturbances, sometimes fatal. It is recommended to avoid the simultaneous use of potassium-sparing diuretics and potassium supplements. If simultaneous use of captopril and the above-listed potassium-containing or potassium-increasing drugs in the blood plasma is necessary, caution should be exercised and the potassium content in the blood serum should be regularly monitored.
Hypokalemia
When using AIF inhibitors simultaneously with thiazide diuretics, the risk of hypokalemia cannot be excluded. Therefore, in such cases, regular monitoring of potassium levels in the blood should be carried out during therapy.
Dual blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS)
The simultaneous use of drugs from different groups that act on the RAAS is not recommended (double blockade of the RAAS), since it has been associated with an increased incidence of side effects such as arterial hypotension, hyperkalemia, and decreased renal function (including acute renal failure).
The simultaneous use of ACE inhibitors with medicinal products containing aliskiren is contraindicated in patients with diabetes mellitus and/or with moderate or severe renal impairment (GFR less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 body surface area) and is not recommended in other patients. Concomitant use of ACE inhibitors with angiotensin II receptor antagonists is contraindicated in patients with diabetic nephropathy and is not recommended in other patients.
In cases where the simultaneous administration of two drugs acting on the RAAS is necessary, their use should be carried out under the supervision of a physician with extreme caution and with regular monitoring of renal function, blood pressure and electrolyte levels in the blood plasma.
The simultaneous use of captopril and drugs containing lithium is not recommended due to the risk of potentiating the toxicity of the latter.
Ethnic differences
ACE inhibitors are less effective in blacks than in Caucasians, which may be due to the higher prevalence of low renin activity in blacks.
Other
When taking captopril, a false-positive urine test for acetone may occur.
