Frequently asked questions

What is Irbesartan + Hidroclorotiazida Fisiofen used for?+
Irbesartan + Hidroclorotiazida Fisiofen is a prescription combination of an angiotensin II receptor blocker and a thiazide diuretic used to lower high blood pressure in adult patients, helping to reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications.
How does Irbesartan work in this combination?+
Irbesartan blocks AT1 receptors, preventing angiotensin II from causing vasoconstriction and aldosterone release, which leads to relaxation of blood vessels and reduced fluid retention, contributing to lower blood pressure.
What is the usual dose of Irbesartan + Hidroclorotiazida Fisiofen?+
The specific dose is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s blood pressure, kidney function, and overall health. The prescriber will select the appropriate strength and dosing schedule.
Is this medication safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Safety in pregnancy and breastfeeding has not been established. It should only be used if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or infant, and this decision must be made by a qualified healthcare professional.

Serious risks include angioedema, severe dehydration, electrolyte disturbances such as hyperkalemia, acute kidney injury, and marked hypotension. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience swelling of the face or throat, dizziness, or rapid weight loss.
Who should not use Irbesartan + Hidroclorotiazida Fisiofen?+
Patients with known hypersensitivity to irbesartan, hydrochlorothiazide, or any component of the formulation should avoid the product. It is also contraindicated in severe renal impairment, anuria, and in patients with severe hepatic disease unless specifically advised by a physician.
