- General Toxicity Notes
- Blood pressure is the best guide to dose and interval. Hypotensive effects magnified by natriuretic agents or sodium depletion. May cause hyperkalemia, metabolic acidosis. Acute renal dysfunction with bilateral or transplant renal artery stenosis, low renal perfusion pressure. Dry cough in 5-10% of patients.
