Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present our compounded formulation of Spironolactone 5 mg/ml and Hydrochlorothiazide 5 mg/ml in an Oral Suspension. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of health conditions, including hypertension, edema, and congestive heart failure. The Spironolactone component is a potassium-sparing diuretic that aids in reducing blood pressure and fluid retention.

The oral suspension form is particularly beneficial for those who have difficulty swallowing pills, as it can be easily consumed. This formulation ensures that the medication is uniformly dispersed throughout the liquid medium, providing a homogeneous mixture for administration.

This compounded formulation of Spironolactone 5 mg/ml and Hydrochlorothiazide 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a liquid dosage form that provides a homogeneous mixture for administration. It is primarily used in the treatment of conditions such as hypertension, edema, and congestive heart failure. However, it is crucial to note that this formulation is contraindicated in patients with anuria, hepatic coma, or hypersensitivity to either of the components.

Due to the potential for electrolyte imbalances, patients using this formulation should be closely monitored for conditions such as hypokalemia, hyponatremia, and hyperuricemia. This formulation can cause a decrease in potassium and sodium levels, and an increase in uric acid levels, which can lead to these conditions.

Furthermore, this formulation can cause an increase in blood glucose levels, leading to hyperglycemia. Therefore, patients should also be monitored for signs of increased blood sugar levels. In patients with renal impairment, this formulation may increase the risk of hyperkalemia, a condition characterized by high potassium levels in the blood.

Additionally, this formulation can cause an increase in calcium levels, leading to hypercalcemia. Therefore, patients should also be monitored for signs of increased calcium levels. This formulation can also cause a decrease in magnesium levels, leading to hypomagnesemia, and an increase in lipid levels, leading to hyperlipidemia. Therefore, patients should also be monitored for signs of decreased magnesium levels and increased lipid levels.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Spironolactone 5 mg/ml/Hydrochlorothiazide 5 mg/ml Oral Suspension is a compounded formulation of two potent medications, designed to effectively manage high blood pressure, edema, and other related conditions. This combination medication functions by inhibiting the action of aldosterone, a hormone that plays a crucial role in the regulation of salt and water balance within the body. By doing so, it aids in reducing fluid retention and subsequently lowering blood pressure.

Moreover, regular and correct usage of this medication can significantly decrease the risk of severe health complications such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney problems. It is typically prescribed to be taken once or twice daily, with or without food, depending on the specific instructions of your healthcare provider. It is crucial to adhere to these instructions and maintain regularity in taking this medication to derive maximum benefit from it.

If a dose is missed, it should be taken as soon as it is remembered. However, it is important not to double the dose to make up for the missed one. For any queries or concerns regarding this medication, it is recommended to consult with your healthcare provider or pharmacist. They can provide comprehensive information based on your specific health condition and medication requirements.
