Expert Advice
- Keep track of your blood pressure and check it often.
- Even if you feel OK, keep taking Azilsartan. High blood pressure typically doesn't have any symptoms.
- Without talking to a doctor beforehand, don't take potassium supplements or salt alternatives, as these could raise potassium levels.
- Drink enough water, but don't get dehydrated, especially if you are throwing up or have diarrhea.
- Tell your doctor if you have kidney disease, heart failure, or dehydration before you start taking the medicine.
- Don't drink alcohol because it can make you dizzy or decrease your blood pressure too much.
Side Effects
- Side Effects That Happen a Lot:
- Feeling dizzy or lightheaded
- Feeling tired or weak
- Feeling sick
- Muscle spasms
- Low blood pressure (hypotension)
- Not as common, but serious:
- High potassium levels (hyperkalemia)
- Changes in kidney function (higher creatinine)
- Face, lips, or throat swelling (a uncommon allergic reaction)
- If you get severe dizziness, trouble breathing, or swelling, call your doctor right once.
How It Works
- Azilsartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB).
- It stops angiotensin II, a natural substance that makes blood arteries smaller, from working.
- Azilsartan lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and making it easier for blood to flow.
- It also keeps the heart and kidneys safe from damage caused by high blood pressure over time.
Medicine Interaction
- Do not take Azilsartan with:
- ACE inhibitors (such lisinopril or ramipril) or other ARBs raise the risk of renal injury or excessive potassium.
- Potassium supplements, spironolactone, and eplerenone can raise potassium levels to hazardous levels.
- NSAIDs (such ibuprofen and diclofenac) may not drop blood pressure as much and may hurt the kidneys.
- Lithium – the danger of lithium poisoning goes up.
- Diuretics, sometimes known as water tablets, may cause blood pressure to drop too low.
- Always tell your doctor about any medicines or herbal products you are using.
How to Use
- Take one pill every day or as directed by your doctor.
- You can take it with or without food, but it's best to do it at the same time every day.
- Do not crumble or chew; just swallow whole with water.
- Even if you feel better, don't stop taking it without talking to your doctor.
- During treatment, check blood pressure and renal function on a regular basis.
