    IMPORTANT DRUG INTERACTIONS <\/H3>Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs\n
  • Anaesthetics: enhanced hypotensive effect\n
  • Analgesics: antagonism of hypotensive effect and increased risk of renal impairment with NSAIDs; hyperkalaemia with ketorolac and other NSAIDs\n
  • Ciclosporin: increased risk of hyperkalaemia and nephrotoxicity\n
  • Diuretics: enhanced hypotensive effect; hyperkalaemia with potassium-sparing diuretics\n
  • Epoetin: increased risk of hyperkalaemia; antagonism of hypotensive effect\n
  • Lithium: reduced excretion (possibility of enhanced lithium toxicity)\n
  • Potassium salts: increased risk of hyperkalaemia\n
  • Tacrolimus: increased risk of hyperkalaemia and nephrotoxicity

    OTHER INFORMATION <\/H4>Moexipril is a prodrug that is converted to an active metabolite, moexiprilatClose monitoring of renal function during therapy is necessary in those with renal insufficiencyRenal failure has been reported in association with ACE inhibitors, mainly in patients with severe congestive heart failure, renal artery stenosis, or post renal transplantHigh incidence of anaphylactoid reactions has been reported in patients dialysed with high-flux polyacrylonitrile membranes and treated concomitantly with an ACE inhibitor. This combination should therefore be avoidedHyperkalaemia and other side effects are more common in patients with impaired renal functionMoexipril hydrochloride.
