May increase urea and creatinine concentrations in plasma in patients with bilateral renal artery stenosis or single renal artery stenosis. Hydrochlorothiazide can increase hypotension and water-electrolyte imbalance (decrease in BCC, hyponatremia, hypochloraemic alkalosis, hypomagneemia, hypokalemia), impair glucose tolerance, reduce Calcium excretion in urine and cause a transient slight increase in calcium concentration in plasma, increase concentration. provoke the occurrence of hyperuricemia and / or gout. Taking medicines directly acting on the RAAS in the II-III trimesters of pregnancy can lead to fetal death.In the event of pregnancy, abolition is indicated (thiazides penetrate through the BBB).

Drug Interactions

A single dose of colestyramine or colestipol may reduce the absorption of hydrochlorothiazide in the gastrointestinal tract by 85% and 43%, respectively. With simultaneous use of hydrochlorothiazide with GCS, ACTH, it is possible to increase the loss of electrolytes, aggravating hypokalemia; with pressor amines (norepinephrine, epinephrine), a slight decrease in the effect of pressor amines, which does not prevent their use; with non-depolarizing muscle relaxants (tubocurarine) - enhancing their action; with NSAIDs, it is possible to reduce diuretic, natriuretic, hypotensive action. Do not use simultaneously with lithium preparations, sincediuretics reduce renal clearance of lithium and increase the risk of intoxication.

Overdosage
