What is Hydrochlorothiazide, Lisinopril?

Hydrochlorothiazide and Lisinopril, the active ingredients in Iruzid, are a thiazide diuretic and an ACE inhibitor presented as a fixed‑dose combination tablet for oral administration. The formulation is indicated for the management of hypertension and for reducing edema associated with heart failure in adult patients.

GNH USA supplies Iruzid as a licensed, GDP‑compliant international pharmaceutical supplier serving hospitals, pharmacies and clinics worldwide, ensuring quality and regulatory compliance across all markets with reliable logistics and post‑delivery assistance.

What is Hydrochlorothiazide, Lisinopril used for?

Iruzid combines a thiazide diuretic and an ACE inhibitor to treat conditions related to elevated blood pressure and fluid retention.

- Hypertension: lowers systolic and diastolic blood pressure in adult patients. - Edema associated with heart failure: promotes diuresis and reduces fluid overload. - Fluid retention in hypertensive patients: improves blood pressure control while decreasing excess extracellular fluid.

What are the side effects of Hydrochlorothiazide, Lisinopril?

Iruzid may cause a range of adverse reactions, from mild to severe.

Common Side Effects: - Dizziness or light‑headedness - Headache - Persistent dry cough - Increased urinary frequency - Electrolyte disturbances (e.g., low potassium) - Fatigue or weakness

Serious or Rare Side Effects: - Angioedema (swelling of face, lips, tongue) - Severe hypotension - Acute kidney injury or renal failure - Hyperkalemia (high potassium levels) - Severe dehydration - Pancreatitis (rare).

What precautions apply to Hydrochlorothiazide, Lisinopril?

Before prescribing Iruzid, clinicians should consider several safety measures.

- Monitor blood pressure: ensure adequate control without excessive hypotension. - Assess renal function: check serum creatinine and eGFR regularly. - Check electrolytes: especially potassium and sodium levels. - Avoid use in pregnancy: category D indicates potential fetal risk. - Use cautiously in patients with diabetes or hepatic impairment. - Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

What does Hydrochlorothiazide, Lisinopril interact with?

Iruzid can interact with several medicines, requiring careful management.

Major Interactions (Avoid): - NSAIDs: may blunt antihypertensive effect and impair renal function. - Potassium‑sparing diuretics or supplements: increase risk of hyperkalemia. - Other ACE inhibitors or ARBs: heighten risk of renal insufficiency and hyperkalemia. - Lithium: can raise lithium serum concentrations.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely): - Loop diuretics: may cause additive electrolyte loss. - Beta‑blockers: may enhance hypotensive response. - Antidiabetic agents: may require dose adjustment due to altered glucose control. - Contrast media: monitor renal function closely. - Antihistamines or other antihypertensives: watch for excessive blood pressure drop.

Frequently asked questions

What is Iruzid used for?+
Iruzid is a fixed‑dose combination of hydrochlorothiazide and lisinopril indicated for the treatment of hypertension and for reducing edema associated with heart failure in adult patients. It provides both diuretic and vasodilatory actions to help control blood pressure and fluid overload.
How does hydrochlorothiazide and lisinopril work in Iruzid?+
Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits sodium‑chloride reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule, promoting diuresis and reducing plasma volume. Lisinopril blocks the angiotensin‑converting enzyme, decreasing angiotensin II and aldosterone levels, which leads to vasodilation and lower systemic vascular resistance. Together they produce complementary antihypertensive effects.
What is the usual dose of Iruzid?+
The specific dose of Iruzid is determined by the prescribing clinician based on the patient’s blood pressure, renal function, and overall clinical condition. Dosage adjustments are made according to individual response and tolerability, following local prescribing guidelines.
Is Iruzid safe to use during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Iruzid is classified as Pregnancy Category D, indicating evidence of fetal risk, and it should generally be avoided during pregnancy unless the potential benefit justifies the risk. Use while breastfeeding is not recommended because the drug may pass into breast milk and affect the infant.
How do I order Iruzid from GNH USA?+
To order Iruzid, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH USA supplies hospitals, pharmacies, and procurement teams worldwide, and will request verification of trade or institutional credentials. The team then replies with pricing, availability, shipping details (including any cold‑chain requirements), and necessary import documentation.
How does Iruzid compare with other antihypertensive options?+
Iruzid combines a thiazide diuretic and an ACE inhibitor in a single tablet, offering the convenience of dual therapy compared with prescribing two separate agents. This can improve adherence and provide synergistic blood‑pressure reduction, whereas alternatives such as calcium‑channel blocker monotherapy lack the diuretic component.
What are the storage requirements for Iruzid?+
Store Iruzid at room temperature, below 25 °C. Keep the tablets in the original packaging, protect them from moisture and direct sunlight, and ensure the container is tightly closed to maintain stability.
How is Iruzid administered?+
Iruzid is taken orally, usually once daily, with or without food, as directed by the prescribing healthcare professional. Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water; do not crush or chew unless specifically instructed.
What are the most serious risks associated with Iruzid?+
The most serious risks include angioedema, severe hypotension, acute kidney injury, hyperkalemia, and profound dehydration. Patients should be educated to seek immediate medical attention if they experience swelling of the face or throat, sudden dizziness, marked weakness, or a rapid decline in urine output.
Who should not use Iruzid?+
Iruzid should not be used by individuals with known hypersensitivity to either hydrochlorothiazide or lisinopril, patients with severe renal impairment, those with a history of angioedema related to ACE‑inhibitor therapy, and pregnant women. Caution is also advised in patients with electrolyte disorders or severe liver disease.
