Indapamide Tablets

Function and Efficacy

It is a sulfonamide diuretic that works by inhibiting the reabsorption of water and electrolytes in the dilution segment of the distal renal tubular cortex. The antihypertensive mechanism is unknown, and its diuretic effect cannot explain the antihypertensive effect, because the dose at which the antihypertensive effect occurs is much smaller than the dose of the diuretic effect. Possible mechanisms include the following aspects: regulating calcium influx into vascular smooth muscle cells; stimulating the synthesis of prostaglandins PGE2 and prostaglandins PGI2; reducing the hypersensitivity of blood vessels to vasopressor amines, thereby inhibiting vasoconstriction. This product has little or no effect on cardiac output, heart rate and heart rhythm when lowering blood pressure. Long-term use of this product rarely affects glomerular filtration rate or renal blood flow. This drug does not affect the metabolism of blood lipids and carbohydrates.

Ingredients

The main ingredient of this product is indapamide, and its chemical name is N-(2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-indolyl)-3-sulfamoyl-4-chloro-benzamide.

Drug Interactions

1. When this product is used together with adrenal cortical hormone, the diuretic and natriuretic effects are weakened. 2. When this product is used together with amiodarone, it is easy to cause arrhythmia due to low blood potassium. 3. When this product is used together with oral anticoagulants, the anticoagulant effect is weakened. 4. When this product is used together with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics, the natriuretic effect of this product is weakened. 5. When this product is used together with dopamine, the diuretic effect is enhanced. 6. When this product is used together with other types of antihypertensive drugs, the antihypertensive effect is enhanced. 7.
