Hi ponyta. Here few informations for you.
Nontherapeutic effects and toxicities:
1. Hyperkalemia, more common when potassium-sparing diuretics used as sole diuretic agent.
2. Acute renal failure. The combination of triamterene with indomethacin has been reported to cause acute renal failure.
3. Kidney stones. Triamterene is poorly soluble and may precipitate in the urine, causing kidney stones.
Contraindications and precautions:
1. Oral k administration should be disconitnued if triamterene is administered, to prevent hyperkalemia.
2. Chronic renal insufficiency. Such patients are vulnerable to hyperkalemia and should rarely be treated with potassium-sparing diuretics.
3. Liver disease. These patients may have impaired metabolism of triamterene, and dosing must be carefully adjusted.
You definetely can switch to another medicine if you want to, but need more information to decide how and what.
It is posible for u also not even take any medicine and cure.
