Simultaneous determination of indapamide, perindopril and perindoprilat in human plasma or whole blood by UPLC-MS/MS and its pharmacokinetic application
Publication date: Available online 19 May 2018Source: Journal of Pharmaceutical AnalysisAuthor(s): Yi Tao, Sheng Wang, Lei Wang, Min Song, Taijun HangAbstractSimple and sensitive methods were developed for the determination of indapamide, perindopril and its active metabolite perindoprilat in human plasma or whole blood by hyphenated ultra-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). Indapamide-d3, perindopril-d4 and perindoprilat-d4 were used as the internal standards. The separation was performed on a Thermo BDS Hypersil C18 column (4.6 mm×100 mm, 2.4 μm) for indapamide and perindopril si...

Hydrochlorothiazide and alternative diuretics versus renin–angiotensin system inhibitors for the regression of left ventricular hypertrophy: a head-to-head meta-analysis
Background: Found in 36–41% of hypertension, elevated left ventricular mass (LVM) independently predicts cardiovascular events and total mortality. Conversely, drug-induced regression of LVM predicts improved outcomes. Previous studies have favored renin–angiotensin system inhibitors (RASIs) over other antihypertensives for reducing LVM but ignored differences among thiazide-type diuretics. From evidence regarding potency, cardiovascular events, and electrolytes, we hypothesized a priori that ‘CHIP’ diuretics [CHlorthalidone, Indapamide and Potassium-sparing Diuretic/hydrochlorothiazide (PSD/HCTZ)] would rival RA...

Type 2 Diabetes and Thiazide Diuretics
AbstractPurpose of ReviewIn patients with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, the use of thiazides as antihypertensive agents has been challenged because associated metabolic adverse events, including new-onset diabetes.Recent FindingsThese metabolic disturbances are less marked with low-dose thiazides and, in most but not all studies, with thiazide-like diuretics (chlorthalidone, indapamide) than with thiazide-type diuretics (hydrochlorothiazide). In post hoc analyses of subgroups of patients with hypertension and type 2 diabetes, thiazides resulted in a significant reduction in cardiovascular events, all-cause mortality, and...

Vascular legacy beyond blood pressure control: benefits of perindopril/indapamide combination in hypertensive patients with diabetes.
CONCLUSION: Moving forward, understanding the pathophysiological bases of the effects that extend beyond those of blood pressure control, will help us differentiate between anti-hypertensive choices. PMID: 29307229 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: Current Medical Research and Opinion)

Diagnosis and management of hyponatraemia in the older patient
Abstract Hyponatraemia (serum sodium concentration below 135 mmol/L) is the most common electrolyte disturbance and occurs commonly in older people. The causes can be complex to diagnose and treat and many published guidelines do not focus on the issues in an older patient group. Here, we are principally concerned with diagnosis and management of euvolaemic and hypervolaemic hyponatraemia in hospitalised patients over 70 years old. We also aim to increase awareness of hyponatraemia in residential aged care facilities and the community. Hyponatraemia can have many causes; in older people, chronic hyponatraemia can often be ...
