1. What PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC is and what it is used for

PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). All three active substances help control high blood pressure (hypertension). Patients who are already taking the fixed combination of perindopril/indapamide and amlodipine as separate tablets may instead take one tablet of PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC containing all three active ingredients.
PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC is a combination of three active substances: perindopril, indapamide and amlodipine. Perindopril is an ACE inhibitor (Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme inhibitor). Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker (belonging to a class of medicines known as dihydropyridines). Indapamide is a diuretic.
In patients with high blood pressure (hypertensive patients), perindopril and amlodipine act by relaxing blood vessels, thereby making it easier for blood to flow through them. Indapamide increases the amount of urine produced by the kidneys. Each active ingredient reduces blood pressure, and together they act to control it.

2. What you should know before taking PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC

Do not take PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC

  • if you are allergic to perindopril or any other ACE inhibitor, to indapamide or any other sulfonamide, to amlodipine besylate or other dihydropyridines, or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6),
  • if you have had symptoms such as wheezing (shortness of breath), facial or tongue swelling, intense itching, or severe skin rashes related to a previous treatment with ACE inhibitors, or if you or a family member has experienced such symptoms under any circumstances (a condition called angioedema),
  • if you have severe liver disease or suffer from a condition known as hepatic encephalopathy (a degenerative brain disorder caused by liver disease),
  • if you have severe kidney disease where blood flow to the kidneys is reduced (renal artery stenosis). PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC 8 mg/2.5 mg/5 mg and PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC 8 mg/2.5 mg/10 mg are contraindicated in cases of moderate to severe kidney problems.
  • if you are undergoing dialysis or any type of blood filtration. Depending on the equipment used, treatment with PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC may not be suitable for you,
  • if you have high or low levels of potassium in your blood,
  • if you suspect you have untreated decompensated heart failure (severe fluid retention, difficulty breathing),
  • if you have cardiogenic shock (a condition in which the heart cannot supply sufficient blood to the body), aortic stenosis (narrowing of the main blood vessel leaving the heart), or unstable angina (chest pain occurring at rest),
  • if you have severe low blood pressure (severe hypotension),
  • if you have heart failure (a condition in which the heart cannot pump blood adequately, causing shortness of breath or peripheral swelling such as in legs, ankles, or feet) following an acute heart attack,
  • if you are more than three months pregnant (PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC should also be avoided in early pregnancy—see “Pregnancy and Breast-feeding”),
  • if you are breast-feeding,
  • if you have diabetes or impaired kidney function and are being treated with a blood pressure-lowering medicine containing aliskiren,
  • if you have taken or are currently taking sacubitril/valsartan, a medicine used to treat chronic heart failure in adults, as this increases the risk of angioedema (rapid swelling under the skin, for example in the throat).

Warnings and precautions

  • if you have recently had a heart attack,
  • if you have aortic stenosis (narrowing of the main blood vessel leaving the heart), hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (a heart muscle disease), or renal artery stenosis (narrowing of the artery supplying blood to the kidneys),
  • if you suffer from heart failure or other heart conditions,
  • if you have kidney problems or are undergoing dialysis,
  • if you have a severe increase in blood pressure (hypertensive crisis),
  • if you have abnormally high levels of a hormone called aldosterone in your blood (primary hyperaldosteronism),

  • if you are taking any of the following medicines used to treat high blood pressure:
  • an "angiotensin II receptor antagonist" (AIIRA) (also known as sartans—e.g., valsartan, telmisartan, irbesartan), especially if you have kidney problems related to diabetes,
  • aliskiren. Your doctor may check your kidney function, blood pressure, and blood electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium) at regular intervals. See also the section "Do not take PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC".
  • if you are of Black ethnicity, you may have a higher incidence of angioedema (swelling of the face, lips, mouth, tongue, or throat causing difficulty swallowing or breathing) and a reduced blood pressure-lowering effect,
  • if you are a dialysis patient undergoing hemodialysis with high-flux membranes,

Angioedema
Angioedema (a severe allergic reaction with swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat, causing breathing or swallowing difficulties) has been reported in patients treated with ACE inhibitors, including PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC. This may occur at any time during treatment. If you experience these symptoms, stop treatment with PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC immediately and contact your doctor. See also section 4.
You must inform your doctor if you think you may be pregnant (or if there is a possibility of becoming pregnant). PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC is not recommended during early pregnancy and must not be taken after the third month of pregnancy, as it may cause serious harm to the unborn child if taken during this period (see “Pregnancy and Breast-feeding”).
If you are taking PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC, inform your doctor or medical staff:

  • if you are to undergo anesthesia and/or surgery,
  • if you have recently had diarrhea or vomiting, or if you are dehydrated,
  • if you are to undergo dialysis or LDL apheresis (blood purification to remove cholesterol using a machine),
  • if you are to undergo desensitization treatment to reduce allergic reactions to bee or wasp stings,
  • if you are to undergo a medical examination requiring injection of an iodinated contrast agent (a substance used to make organs such as kidneys or stomach visible on X-rays).
  • If you notice changes in vision or pain in one or both eyes during treatment with PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC. These could be symptoms of fluid accumulation in the vascular layer of the eye (choroidal effusion) or increased eye pressure, which may occur from a few hours to several weeks after taking PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC. If untreated, these conditions may lead to permanent vision loss. If you previously had an allergy to penicillins or sulfonamides, you may have a higher risk of developing this condition. If you experience these symptoms, stop treatment with PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC immediately and consult a doctor.

PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC with food and drinks
It is preferable to take PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC before meals.
People taking PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC should not drink grapefruit juice or eat grapefruit. Grapefruit and its juice may increase blood levels of the active ingredient amlodipine, potentially leading to an unpredictable increase in the blood pressure-lowering effect of PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC.

Pregnancy and breast-feeding
If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine.
Pregnancy
Inform your doctor if you think you may be pregnant (or if there is a possibility of becoming pregnant). Your doctor will usually advise you to stop taking PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC before starting pregnancy or as soon as you find out you are pregnant, and will recommend an alternative medicine.
PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC is not recommended during early pregnancy and must not be taken after the third month of pregnancy, as it may cause serious harm to the unborn child if taken after the third month.
Breast-feeding
It has been shown that amlodipine passes into breast milk in small amounts.
Inform your doctor if you are breast-feeding or planning to start breast-feeding.
PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC is contraindicated for women who are breast-feeding. Your doctor may choose an alternative treatment if you wish to breast-feed, especially if your baby is newborn or was born prematurely.
Contact your doctor immediately.

Driving and using machines
PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC does not impair your attention, but may cause dizziness or weakness due to low blood pressure, which could affect your ability to drive or operate machinery. It is advisable not to drive or use machinery until you know how PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC affects you.

PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC contains sodium
PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC contains less than 1 mmol of sodium (23 mg) per tablet, i.e., it is essentially "sodium-free".

3. How to take PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC

Take this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you. If you are unsure, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
The recommended dose is one tablet daily. Take the tablet preferably in the morning and before a meal. Swallow the tablet with a glass of water.
PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC 4 mg/1.25 mg/10 mg tablets
PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC 8 mg/2.5 mg/10 mg tablets
The break line on the tablet is intended to facilitate breaking the tablet in case you have difficulty swallowing it whole.
Your doctor will determine the appropriate dose for you. PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC is prescribed for patients already being treated with perindopril/indapamide and amlodipine as separate tablets.

If you take more PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC than you should
If you take too many tablets, contact your doctor or the nearest hospital emergency department immediately. The most likely symptom of overdose is low blood pressure. If a marked drop in blood pressure occurs (with symptoms such as dizziness or weakness), lying down with your legs raised may be helpful.
Excess fluid may accumulate in the lungs (pulmonary edema), causing shortness of breath, which may develop within 24–48 hours after ingestion.

If you forget to take PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC
It is important to take the medicine every day, as regular treatment is more effective. However, if you forget to take a dose of PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC, take the next dose at your usual time. Do not take a double dose to make up for the forgotten tablet.

If you stop taking PERINDOPRIL/INDAPAMIDE/AMLODIPINE DOC
Since treatment for high blood pressure is usually lifelong, you must speak to your doctor before stopping this medicine.

If you have any doubts about how to use this medicine, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
