With the simultaneous use of the drug Aritel® Plus with phenytoin (with intravenous administration) and drugs for inhalation of general anesthesia (derivatives of hydrocarbons), the cardiopepressive effect and the likelihood of excessive reduction in blood pressure (due to the content of bisoprolol) may increase.
The clearance of lidocaine and xanthine may decrease due to a possible increase in their concentrations in the blood plasma, especially in patients with initially elevated clearance of theophylline (due to the content of bisoprolol in the formulation).
With the simultaneous use of calcium and / or vitamin preparations D in high doses, hypercalcemia may develop and the risk of metabolic acidosis (due to the content of the drug hydrochlorothiazide) increases.
Aritel® Plus is contraindicated for use in combination with floktaphenin, sultopride, MAO inhibitors (with the exception of MAO type B inhibitors).
It is possible to increase the antihypertensive effect of the drug Aritel® Plus when used with antidepressants, antipsychotics, slow calcium channel blockers (amlodipine, felodipine, nifedipine, nicardipine, nimodipine, nitrendipine), angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (incl. captopril, enalapril), irbesartan, diuretics, clonidine, sympatholytics, hydralazine and other antihypertensive agents.
It is possible to reduce the antihypertensive effect of the drug Aritel® Plus with simultaneous administration with glucocorticosteroids (for systemic administration), estrogens, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (indomethacin, piroxicam, naproxen, phenylbutazone) and tetracosactide.
When used simultaneously with the drug Aritel® Plus, the effects of nondepolarizingmuscle relaxants and anticoagulant effect of coumarin derivatives.
Cardiac glycosides, methyldopa, reserpine, guanfacine, BCCC (verapamil, diltiazem, amlodipine, felodipine, nifedipine, nicardipine, nimodipine, nitrendipine), antiarrhythmics, as well as agents that can initiate arrhythmias such as pirouettes (astemizole, beprideil, erythromycin, halofantrine, pentamidine, sparfloxacin, terfenadine), increase the risk of developing and / or strengthening bradycardia, atrioventricular blockade and chronic heart failure. With simultaneous application with sotalol hypokalemia and development of ventricular arrhythmia such as "pirouette" is possible.
With the simultaneous use of the drug Aritel® Plus with lithium salts, it is possible to increase the concentration of the latter in the blood to a toxic level.
The effectiveness of insulin and hypoglycemic agents for oral administration may be reduced.
Unhydrated ergot alkaloids increase the risk of peripheral circulatory disorders.
With the simultaneous use of the preparation Aritel® Plus with allergens used for immunotherapy, or with extracts of allergens for skin tests,as well as with allopurinol or with iodine-containing radiopaque diagnostic agents for intravenous administration, the risk of allergic reactions increases.
With the simultaneous administration of the drug Aritel® Plus with mefloquine, bradycardia may develop; with carbamazepine - hyponatremia; with cyclosporine - an increase in serum creatinine is possible.
Sulfasalazine increases the concentration of bisoprolol in the blood plasma; rifampicin - shortens the half-life of bisoprolol.
