Description

Pharmacological action

Equapress is a fixed combination of antihypertensive components of amlodipine, indapamide and lisinopril, which have complementary mechanisms of action to control blood pressure (BP), as well as synergistically have a cardioprotective effect.

The combination of amlodipine, indapamide and lisinopril prevents the possible development of side effects that occur when prescribing certain components of the drug. For example, by expanding arterioles, slow calcium channel blockers (BMKCs) can cause sodium and fluid retention in the body, which leads to the activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). An angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor blocks this process and normalizes the body’s response to salt load.

ACE inhibitors significantly reduce diuretic hypokalemia.

Amlodipine

A derivative of dihydropyridine is a slow calcium channel blocker that has an antihypertensive and antianginal effect. It blocks slow calcium channels, reduces the transmembrane transition of calcium ions to the cell (more to the smooth muscle cells of blood vessels than to cardiomyocytes). The antianginal effect is due to the expansion of the coronary and peripheral arteries and arterioles:

– with angina pectoris it reduces the severity of myocardial ischemia by expanding peripheral arterioles, reduces the overall peripheral vascular resistance, reduces cardiac oxygen demand, reduces myocardial oxygen demand

– expanding coronary arteries and arterioles in unchanged and myocardial ischemic zones, increases oxygen supply to the myocardium (especially with vasospastic angina pectoris) prevents spasm of the coronary arteries (including caused by smoking).

In patients with stable angina, a single daily dose increases exercise tolerance, slows the development of angina attacks and ST segment depression by 1 mm, and reduces the frequency of angina attacks and consumption of nitroglycerin and other nitrates.

Has a long dose-dependent antihypertensive effect. The antihypertensive effect is due to a direct vasodilating effect on the smooth muscles of blood vessels. In case of arterial hypertension, a single dose provides a clinically significant decrease in blood pressure over 24 hours (lying and standing).

Orthostatic hypotension with amlodipine is rare. Amlodipine does not cause a decrease in exercise tolerance, left ventricular ejection fraction. Reduces the degree of left ventricular myocardial hypertrophy. It does not affect myocardial contractility and conductivity, does not cause a reflex increase in heart rate, inhibits platelet aggregation, increases glomerular filtration rate, and has a weak natriuretic effect.

In diabetic nephropathy does not increase the severity of microalbuminuria. It does not have any adverse effect on the metabolism and concentration of blood plasma lipids and can be used in the treatment of patients with bronchial asthma, diabetes mellitus and gout. A significant decrease in blood pressure is observed after 6-10 hours, the duration of the effect is 24 hours.

In patients with diseases of the cardiovascular system (including coronary atherosclerosis with damage to one vessel and up to stenosis of 3 or more arteries, carotid atherosclerosis) who have had myocardial infarction, percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), or in patients with angina pectoris the use of amlodipine prevents the development of thickening of the intima-media of the carotid arteries, reduces mortality from myocardial infarction, stroke, PTCA, aorto-coronary bypass surgery leads to a decrease in the number of hospitalizations for unstable hydrochloric progression of angina pectoris and congestive heart failure (CHF) reduces the frequency of interventions to restore coronary blood flow.

Does not increase the risk of death or the development of complications and deaths in patients with heart failure (III-IV functional class according to the classification of the New York Cardiology Association (NYHA)) during treatment with digoxin, diuretics and ACE inhibitors. In patients with heart failure (III-IV functional class according to NYHA classification) of non-ischemic etiology with the use of amlodipine, there is a possibility of pulmonary edema.

Indapamide

Indapamide is a sulfonamide derivative with an indole ring and is similar in pharmacological properties to thiazide diuretics that inhibit the absorption of sodium ions in the cortical segment of the nephron loop. At the same time, the excretion by the kidneys of sodium, chlorine ions and, to a lesser extent, potassium and magnesium ions increases, which is accompanied by an increase in diuresis and antihypertensive effect.

In clinical trials using indapamide in monotherapy in doses that do not have a pronounced diuretic effect, a 24-hour antihypertensive effect was demonstrated.

The antihypertensive activity of indapamide is associated with an improvement in the elastic properties of large arteries, and a decrease in arteriolar and total peripheral vascular resistance.

Indapamide reduces left ventricular hypertrophy.

Thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics at a certain dose reach a plateau of therapeutic effect, while the frequency of side effects continues to increase with a further increase in the dose of the drug. Therefore, you should not increase the dose of the drug if, when taking the recommended dose, the therapeutic effect is not achieved.

In the short term, Medium and long-term studies involving patients with arterial hypertension have shown that indapamide:

– does not affect lipid metabolism, including the concentration of triglycerides, cholesterol, low and high density lipoproteins

– does not affect carbohydrate metabolism, including in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Lisinopril

Lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor that inhibits the transformation of angiotensin I into angiotensin II. A decrease in the concentration of angiotensin II leads to a direct decrease in the secretion of aldosterone. Lisinopril inhibits the degradation of bradykinin and increases the synthesis of prostaglandins. Reduces total peripheral vascular resistance, blood pressure, preload and pressure in the pulmonary capillaries. In patients with heart failure increases the minute volume of blood and increases the resistance of the myocardium to stress.

Expands arteries more than veins. Some effects are explained by its effect on the tissue renin-angiotensin system. With prolonged use, hypertrophy of the myocardium and walls of the arteries of the resistive type decreases.

Lisinopril improves blood supply to the ischemic myocardium.

In patients with heart failure, ACE inhibitors increase life expectancy in patients with a history of myocardial infarction in the absence of clinical manifestations of heart failure, lisinopril slows the progression of left ventricular dysfunction.

In patients with CHF, lisinopril begins to act within 1 hour after ingestion. The maximum effect is achieved within 6-7 hours, the duration of the effect is 24 hours. In patients with arterial hypertension, the effect manifests itself during the first days after the start of treatment, the stabilization of the effect occurs within 1-2 months of treatment. Cases of marked increase in blood pressure after a sharp discontinuation of the drug are not registered.

Lisinopril provides both a decrease in blood pressure and a decrease in albuminuria. In patients with hyperglycemia, the drug helps to restore the function of the damaged glomerular endothelium. In patients with diabetes mellitus, lisinopril does not affect the plasma glucose concentration, taking the drug does not increase the incidence of hypoglycemia.

Indications

Arterial hypertension (patients requiring combination therapy).

Overdose of Overdose of amlodipine Symptoms: a significant decrease in blood pressure with the possible development of reflex tachycardia and excessive peripheral vasodilation (there is a risk of significant and persistent hypotension, with the development of shock and death). Treatment: gastric lavage, administration of activated carbon (especially during the first 2 hours after an overdose), giving the patient a horizontal position with raised lower limbs, active support of the cardiovascular system, monitoring indicators of heart and lung function, controlling the volume of circulating blood and urine output. In the absence of contraindications, vasoconstrictors may be appropriate to restore vascular tone and blood pressure. Intravenous injections of calcium gluconate can help to stop the effects of calcium channel blockade. Since amlodipine largely binds to serum proteins, hemodialysis is ineffective in treating an overdose of amlodipine. Overdose of indapamide No toxic effects of indapamide have been observed with an overdose even in very high doses (up to 40 mg, i.e. 27 times the therapeutic dose). Signs of acute indapamide poisoning are primarily associated with a violation of the water-electrolyte balance (hyponatremia, hypokalemia). Clinical symptoms of an overdose can include nausea, vomiting, decreased blood pressure, cramps, dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, polyuria or oliguria, leading to anuria (due to hypovolemia). Emergency care measures include removing the drug from the body, washing the stomach and / or taking activated charcoal to restore water-electrolyte balance. Overdose of lisinopril Symptoms: a significant decrease in blood pressure, dry mouth, drowsiness, urinary retention, constipation, anxiety, and irritability. Treatment: symptomatic therapy, intravenous administration of 0.9% sodium chloride solution and, if possible, vasopressors, blood pressure control, control of water-electrolyte balance. Perhaps hemodialysis. Storage conditions At a temperature not exceeding 25 ° C. Keep out of the reach of children. Expiration 2 years.
